I like the Christian and Rey Mysterio, because they actually depict those guys from a few years ago. I assume Taker is based off when he won in '07, but he hasn't changed much since then. The same goes for the '08 Cena and the '09 Orton. So they are to be expected. But, why the hell is Sheamus even in this set? He's been in one Royal Rumble PPV. I don't see why they couldn't have gone a little further back and done a Michaels, Austin, Rock, or HHH. Bill from Mattel already answered. One person from each year 2005-2010. 4 winners from 2006-2009. Christian had a colorful and memorable attire and it was his last rumble for a few years. Sheamus is a want for collectors. Its his first figure, so it will sell!!!! Oh, sorry. I didn't see his comment on it. I just looked at the figures and posted my opinions.

I'll definitely get Cena and Christian. The rest I'll think about.

That packaging for Cena looks amazing. That was my reaction. But Christian's and Rey's scans look terrible.

Mattel, I´m sorry to say so, but this time I´m pretty disappointed by you. "The Heritage of the Royal Rumble" was perfectly fit to throw in some legends (maybe even a repaint of Hacksaw Jim Duggan as first Royal Rumble winner!). Instead you threw in Undertaker, John Cena, Rey Mysterio and Christian that already had at least one figure (even though I feel like Undertaker, Cena and Mysterio already had at least 500 figures each!!).
Disappointment!

This set is a joke. Mattel has already released a bunch of Taker, Cena, and Orton figures that look exactly like this. They could have atleast done Orton from '04 or '05(more classic Evolution look) and a Biker Taker.
Rey looks good. Christian's attire is cool but that head scan is god-awful. The elite headscan is so much better. Sheamus shouldn't even be in this set if it's suppose to be a RR Heritage set.

There hasn't been any Hacksaw Jim Duggan basic figure to do a repaint of.

Nice Christian! What's with all the Undertaker re-releases? They all look the same.

I think a basic Hacksaw would have been ideal just plop the legends 3 head on a basic body, Sheamus was a good move as was the Christian as it has a retro feel to it. Rey, Cena, Taker, Orton are not much different than whats out there.

I don't think this set is as bad as everyone makes it out to be... Undertaker and Orton are the most boring IMO... Way too similar to their other releases. Cena, even though it's a small change, is a nice figure. Rey and Christian look great. And, I respect the idea of putting Sheamus out there to give people another chance at him.
