I bet Nash will look EXACTLY like Diesel except a different paint job. He'll have the same face and hair, except it will be light brownish/blonde. His outfit will be exactly the same except it'll be red with either "NASH" or "nWo" written across the stomach. Anyone expecting any different will likely face disappointment.
Mattel did this with Kerry von Erich and The Texas Tornado variants, where the only difference was more bushy eyebrows for Kerry than Tornado, and that was a paint difference (plus the accessories and tassels).
I'm worried, though, how they'll handle the blonde hair. Hopefully it won't be a disaster like DDP.

lol, yeah, I guess you're right, the only other thing we could really hope for would be a non gloved hand and an nWo title belt instead of a WWE title. Maybe a new vest too.

I´ll buy: - Diesel - Kevin Nash (if they go for his debut attire in WCW they´ll not even change his hair color. I hope he´s not just a lazy repaint of Diesel (fingers crossed) - CM Punk (will replace my E11) - Heath Slater - Ezekiel Jackson Rock´s goatee still looks completely wrong to me and another Orton with those godawful rubber shirt which never stays properly on the figure? No thanks!

Yes, accessories will change, but the figure itself will be exactly the same. Mattel already said that they can't do the same thing they're doing with Nash on someone like Mick Foley because Nash allows them to use "the same tooling," whereas Foley would need different scans. It's gonna be the same exact figure but a different paint job and different accessories. I'd bet 20 bucks.

I will buy the CM Punk one but only if I could get it in stores. They look sick esp. Punk and Diesel.

Y no Orton or Rock on list? Because nobody wants the Orton or Rock. JK! JK! When I was typing the names of who's in the series, I accidentally pressed "Enter", instead of "Tab" to go to the next line.

First round ships late-June, right? Meaning back-orders are mid-July?

Not much of interest in this series. Diesel's face looks way off, more crappy work from Mattel. And what's up with the horrible elite packaging, boxes are way too big for nothing. Another massive letdown from Mattel. ........This is one of the best sets Mattel has put out. I suggest not collecting if this is a huge let down.

Though I only collect legends/flashbacks/DMs/EGs, I think all the figures look great in this series. I see Diesel (Nash) as essential to my collection. Both gimmicks were on my original top 25 want list. And I think he looks awesome. Punk looks great for Punk fans (I don't watch the current stuff). The Jackson guy looks like an exciting body mold for Lesnar and possibly Goldberg. The Rock looks okay. I'd like to see his eyes to see if they are more rounded than oval, because The Rock's eyes seem more round in real life. The ladder is cool, too.

I B/O Punk, Slater and Zeke. Not a big buyer of Flashbacks. A current Kevin Nash from that PPV he did with Hunter would possibly gain my interest. Will buy Rock miles of Indy ...2-05-12_15-55-09_665.j [/img]pg

I think they all look great - especially Diesel... can't wait! BTW: could someone please post the case breakdowns again? Is Heath Slater only in the second assortment (with Nash)? Cheers.
