Hmmm...honestly the only one I like out of the bunch is Del Rio...and that's only because it's his debut figure. Nice to see a non Nexus Barrett but I'm happy with my TLC fixup. But I'd like to see some loose pics of him to see exactly what tights he's wearing.
But none of these...even Del Rio...are jumping out at me as must buys online. So I'm pretty sure I'll just wait until retail to pick any of these up.

ANOTHER red Bourne??? Damn! Can we not get a blue Bourne?? Heck, even an outdated white Bourne would be fine with me! But we jsut got this Bourne in the Elite line, and every Bourne thus far has been red/black with white detailing. Can we not at least get a new main color for him? Sorry about that.. I just needed to vent..
As for Del Rio, idk why, but the body jsut seems off to me. Hopefully it looks better in person.
Morrison is great because of the scan.
Barrett needs a new scan, I can't tell if that one's a new one or not.
Rey DESPERATELY needs a new scan! Every Rey that's been released at mass retail, with the exception of the TRU Box Set, has been the exact same scan, either with or without facial hair. His smiling scan needs to be used more often in the Elite and Basic lines.
Orton looks excellent. I LOVE his new head scan. It's perfect for a heel Orton. I wish his new Elite would've had no wrist tape, though, so that we could actually have a colored rose tat with no wrist tape rather than it being plain black.

Just Orton, Morrison and Del Rio for me. I'm happy with the previous Bourne's so I'll pass on this one. The next Barrett for me will be an Elite one whenever that comes out and I know Rey is a big seller but there are just too many coming out so close to each other.

John Morrison looks to be the gem of the set for me. Love it. The attire is amazing and the new scan makes it all the better.

The Morrison is the same scan as TLC, correct?

I do agree though that he needs a new one.

WHAT.
Surprised to see this in stock already. ADR is pretty cool, as are some of the other figures, but this set is pretty passable for me unless I find Del Rio in stores.

Picking up Del Rio, personally I think the white attire looks cool.
Orton looks great aswell but I will be holding out until we get a bearded scan. Would have got Bourne if he was in his blue attire. Morrison is outdated now. Barrett looks good but I probably won't pick him up. Not a bad set overall.

Love the Del Rio. Can't wait for him to get here.
I'm thinking I might pick up Rey & Bourne at retail.
But even the ones I'm passing on are really good.

How do you guys like this set? It's awful...all repaints except Del Rio, which I will wait to get in Elite in gold attire with a scarf.

Underwhelming series, Basic elite 8 bourne, another orton, and rey, guessing wade has a red version of the tlc tights. Del Rio wore that white attire like once, believe me, I still want it though.

Since I don't collect Elites, I'm more than happy to see Bourne in a basic form of E8. The rest of the series looks great. Can't wait for Del Rio to arrive and I will be picking everybody else up once they hit retail.
