That Christian will be mine!
All the others are just repaints... The Cena is cool for the Cena collectors.

tbh I was REALLY hoping for.. Undertaker - 2002 Rumble(the one Maven eliminated him in). Big Evil attire. Christian - Any long-haired attire. Orton - Rumble 2004. Blue trunks. Cena, Rey, and Sheamus are fine. And Christian isn't honestly bad. I just REALLY wanted a long-haired Christian, a ABA Taker, and a "classic" Orton in blue.

Will definitely get Rey. Maybe Christian and maybe Sheamus if I don't find B5. Rest are easy passes.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one expecting a ~2000 era Christian. I mean, sure, it'd require a new headsculpt but they could have used it somewhere in the future. Taker should have certainly had a classic attire too! Bad set. The only necessary one is Sheamus, as it makes his basic less hard to get.
No need to call them heritage whatsoever.

I've been waiting to see these, nice! Overall the figures themselves are solid. However I still think they went about this set all wrong. It should have been devoted to only Royal Rumble winners & the attires/looks of their respective wins.
Sheamus I just don't get the inclusion of him in this set. It's a great figure, I can't wait to own it, but he's only wrestled in 1 Rumble, and he wasn't even in the rumble match! I think they could have found someone better suited for this set, hell even another HHH in his 2002 look would have been better.
Christian Nice surprise, I love the "classic" attire. The purple looks just awesome. The logos look crisp. Too bad the head isn't accurate. Still, this is a must-buy for me.
Randy Orton I like the purple. I like Orton's Mattel figures, I don't like that this is not in the attire he won the Rumble in. That's what this set should have been....Rumble winners in their respective attires. Ah well.
John Cena Great all around, would have liked a screaming headscan. I love the way his packaging looks. I'll actually pick this up.
Rey Mysterio Love the attire, looks pretty good all around. Nice to have Mattel take a crack at that era Rey
Undertaker Meh, it's alright. Logos are fine, but it's very similar to the Wrestlemania Heritage.

Is that just special packaging for the set or is that the 2011 Packaging???
Edited: I sure hope that is new 2011 Packaging. I like it a lot more than the others

I somewhat understand what Mattel was going for here. If you look at it Cena, Undertaker, Rey, and Orton are all in their attires that they won the Rumble, only 50% sure about Undertaker. I have no idea what Sheamus and Christian are in there. I am not complaining though because Sheamus is going to be so hard to find, whatever handful of Sheamus figures come out you won't hear a peep out of me.
Christian looks cool though, nice change of pace, though still don't understand the reasoning behind it.
Cena and Rey I might keep MOC because those are just legendary to have their Rumble Win symbolized in Mattel form. Especially Rey.
Mattel really does need to make new headscans though, the Undertaker is pretty overdone to say the least. However, like Mattel stated before PPV sets were going to be repaint sets only, so it's not like they're doing us wrong.

MATTEL PLEASE PAINT ORTON'S TATS ON HIS DELTOIDS. Please, He has ink on his deltoids? I don't recognize them. And, as a question to an earlier post, and call me an idiot, but I forgot, but when the did Cena wear black shorts? On RAW in '05?
