Out of the three I might get RVD/Rey.
I'm glad MDT is re-releasing that action stand, I just wish I didn't have to buy another Mysterio to get it.

These are awful. The only one I'd even consider getting is RVD if I can get him loose on eBay. Has Big Show ever even worn that singlet? Also, of all the attires they could've chosen for HBK, they decided to do a half-assed version of his E19 figure? Why? He wore it a few times before & after WrestleMania XXX last year. Last time I remember him wearing it was when Demon Kane Chokeslammed him on Main Event last April. Is that DDP's rib wrap? Is that the only way they could get it out to us? I guess like a lot of people I want that Andre head, maybe Michaels and the wrap. Michaels would be an easier buy if his wrist wraps were there. Is that the joke, no wrist wrap, so here's some rib wrap? You done rubbed me the wrong way with what wraps we weren't wowed with this Wednesday. It was also released in the Daniel Bryan/Big Show Battle Pack as well.

I don't buy basics, but I'm glad to see them have a different head than the elite versions of wrestlers. I would like to see closeup's of the head, especially Andre

Really disapointed... Shawn Michaels is a huge letdown, André too (blue singlet guys !)

This is a helluva set of Battle Packs minus HBK's attire...that is a huge letdown

That HBK is such a fail. What is with the two white fists? Either give him white WRIST tape, or the gloves from Elite 19....the two white fists makes ZERO sense.
Not buying any of these. I have Elite versions of them all that are better.

Will get Andre & show because that Andre looks better than BOTH of his elites and I need big shows tattooed calves to swap onto his elite figure. Really could have given hbk his heartbreak kneepads so people would at least have a reason to buy that set so we could put them on his E19 figure.

Yeah, jumping in on the "what the is the deal" with HBK. I don't even mind the E19 attire over again in Basic form, so much as why he doesn't have his hand wraps and why he's a ginger, AGAIN. Seems like a huge wasted opportunity but then I guess that protects a good attire for Elite form. Was hoping to get something we normally couldn't get in the Elite line though. That RVD is sick. These are all a pass though. A 97 HBK should be an instant pick up for me but they really botched this one up.

I would seriously like to know Mattel's thought process on this Shawn. With all the options available, why an attire we already have.

To be fair, the Shawn attire is from the night Anvil "joined" DX. But the hair isn't accurate to that match. So it's kind of all over the grid, no knee pads either.

I would really love to swap the head from that Andre to an elite one if I could ever find either one of these...

Like the Rey the best. I don't remember HBK wearing taped fists, but it's still a nice looking figure. Taker looks good, but I was never a fan of the red logos on him. Andre looks great and RVD is pretty sweet also. Really the only one I am not a fan of is the Big Show figure.

Wow, not sure what to do with these sets...
* Zero interest in HBK/Taker - two opponents from different eras, I have the HBK Elite & it's not even among my favorites..... pass. Why wouldn't they base it off one of their actual matches?
* Rey/RVD - is this a WCW Rey? So, WCW Rey with a current (?) RVD? Again, confused about this set, might pick it up if I find it on sale or something?
* Andre/Big Show - I need to see this Andre in person, I believe I may pick it up so I have a loose Andre for display, but I don't think I'm getting a good idea of how it looks from these photos - but again - not if it's too expensive ($20+). If it's in that $17-$20 range, I may get it.
Very strange pairings....

I only want the RVD and Rey pack, think they both look pretty good. I had been excited for the HBK but they really let me down here. Apparently no money for paint in the budget... Of all possible HBK attires we won't ever get in elite, here was a chance to do one and we get a basic of an elite we already have.

Just realized that the Taker head sculpt looks to be the same as the one on the Corporate Kane BOPPV Taker figure.
Unless it's been used on something else, it's a nice updated scan for the basic.

What a waste. HBK in a different attire would have been sick but i guess these battle packs are geared towards kids, not the collector

WTF was Mattel thinking?!? HBK has tons of awesome outfits... Nope lets re-use E 19 in basic form. They even said before they wouldn't do figures that have been done before. What about chest hair? Geez. What a waste.

Is that DDP's rib wrap? Is that the only way they could get it out to us? I guess like a lot of people I want that Andre head, maybe Michaels and the wrap. Michaels would be an easier buy if his wrist wraps were there. Is that the joke, no wrist wrap, so here's some rib wrap? You done rubbed me the wrong way with what wraps we weren't wowed with this Wednesday. I want to say that the rib wrap is the same as the one which came with Daniel Bryan in the Battle Pack with Big Show 2 years ago. As a general accessory goes it could be put to good use by fed guys, animators, and kids.
