Earthquake and Typhoon are nice, but they aren't well known by enough of the younger crowd to warrant them buying them. Tugboat was recently released and he still can be found on some shelves. Natural Disasters should've been a HOF 2 pack or even a Ringside exclusive set. While they aren't the death of the line, they will clog the arteries for a bit and slow the newer figures from hitting. This happens all the time though, the Elites have Apollo Crews and Regal sitting on pegs in quite a few stores around me.

Hey guys what kind of figures are better to collect and harder to find the basic, then now forever, elite, or defining moments, also which ones will be worth more money down the road Anything that you see multiple figures of on the shelf are the hottest toys that will be worth a fortune later on. So if you see a bunch of John Cena figures make sure you buy them all. He is worth a lot no matter what kind of toy it is. Sure it may seem odd if the figure is clogging the shelves that it would be worth anything, but it will be. I see Junkyard Dog Elites, Lord Steven Regal, Apollo Crews, and Network Spotlight Steve Austin figures all the time, and they will without a doubt be worth their weight in gold in a couple years. Make sure you buy them all though.

Are the new tough talker 2 packs showing up? I've seen the new days singles at target, but no new 2 packs.

Why did the Basic 74 Reigns figure not have his tat sleeve? Will the gap in his shoulder tat ever be fixed?

Anyone find the X-Men TRU 2-pack yet? Downers Grove Tru on 75th has 4 of them.

The defining moments line is just mattel's way of making elites more expensive. There haven't been any figures lately that really capture the defining moment, but seem more like "this guy wore this once." Instead of Charlotte at mania becoming the first new wwe women's champion or Edge cashing in his mitb it will be lame. The next figures will be Rock with the new WWE championship, Lesnar with the universal championship, or Cena winning his 16th world title.

Are the slammys already being dropped from the basic line? I don't think they were included in 72, 73, or 74 with any figure that ringside got.

What is with the comically large pen? I get that this way a figure can hold it, but the size and shape are an odd choice for a kids toys. Is that to make the women's contract signing more interesting, or simply cause someone always gets screwed during a contract signing. Thank you Mattel for including a big black PEN.

Mattel should be embarassed that they didn't release a box set of Undertaker through the years. Instead they made that Rey Mysterio set that took forever to clear out. Rey was way over produced and they just ignored Mr WWE himself.

It was a cool concept that got wasted with a bunch of Cena figures. If they used the WWE Immortals game as a base for these figures it would've been better, in the end it was a missed opportunity. But they are great to buy on clearance because they make nice jobbers or in the Roman Reigns case a security force.

I'll probably get a couple of it. It sucks that they aren't gonna give him the proper wraps, but it's still a cool figure for a collection. They nailed the headscan for Roman.

Why did Mattel release this figure? I was all set to buy it and then I saw HE HAS NO NECK. These Elite BAF figs run about $22 and are usually okay to pick up for custom fodder, but this Undertaker is a disaster. I had it in my hand and looked at a couple other figures to make sure I was getting a good one, but then I noticed that his chin is almost on his chest and put it down. I could've lived with the cheap rubber coat and hat but this was a deal breaker for me. In the end Undertaker has no neck and a cheap rubber coat so it wasn't worth it for me. For $22 I would expect a leather coat and for him to have a neck, he has a throat tattoo that you can see all the time but this time it's hidden behind his chin and goatee. Ridiculous on Mattel's part.

The brock lesnar entrance set has the wwe title and the hooded robe. Awesome I didn't know that, I need to find that one These stackdown sets are cool but bridge direct really sucks at telling people what's included. If they let people know about the title belt alone it would increase sales.
