Im also new to Mattel & had some random questions/thoughts. Why is the Hurricane getting a fig?? I though he wa no longer with the company & didnt he stop using that gimmick a long time ago?? I saw at a store an elite Jericho that just included a mic. Does that justify $15? Same with MVP elite $15 for a bandana & chains. The basic for $10 should include these. Myabe Im missing something. I understand Elites like Morrison & R-Truths. But for now I guess I'll just stick with the Basics.

Cool!
Even I'm going to be a new Mattel figure collector ;D
However, rather than collecting any particular series, I'm simply going to be collective Ultimate Warrior figures as and when they release. I hope that some Limited Edition Warriors are made!
I only collect figures of my favourite superstars -- I would get to sense of happiness of in owning figures of the Ortons, Dibiases, or others because I think nothing of them.
God bless.

I understand Elites like Morrison & R-Truths. But for now I guess I'll just stick with the Basics. Basic are just regular figures in packages. Hurricane got a figure b/c he was in the lineup at the time before he was released and it prob. went into late production and it just got released b/c he makes no more money on it unlike Jeff Hardy who had in his contract where he makes more off his merchandise. Some Elites will come with more while some come with less. Is that bad? Not always, but it could make you hesitate buying it. Mattel i'm sure has a certain budget for each series and when you have a guy like Morrison with the glasses and coat as apposed to a guy like Cody Rhodes who only has a t shirt they can include more in that set as the one with Morrison. So while Jericho got shorted a t shirt they made up for it with Morrison.
