Probably could have put this in the Basic 27 thread. Since nobody said you had to buy it.

Its not their best effort, but it's Cesaro....I have to own it.
I think it will be the "Zeke syndrome"....first figure is sub-par but it's out there, second figure will be amazing.

While not perfect, I think the basic figure is pretty good.
However, I only collect elite so I will be waiting. I rarely even get current wrestlers, but he's an instant buy for me.

I got my shipping notice for Basic 27 and was planning on doing an Elite fixup all along. Anyway, I'm starting to get my parts ready and I found out that the new Elite Cena torso is perfect for Cesaro. Really ripped, yet slim, and it had broad shoulders. Only thing is I'm gonna have to give him black trunks since I don't have any red ones. I was originally just planning on using Kevin Von Erich but I hear the skin tones won't match.

Not too sure how I feel about Cesaro using the Cena torso. I would suggest the Wade Barrett torso. Too each is own though

I guess I should have said it was lean because my other thought was an Austin torso.

It really just comes down to the scan and the hair color. The scan isn't very good and the hair (chest and head) is too dark. Lighten the hair and give him a better scan and he'd be 1000x better. The nipple holes are pretty weird though

meh, though the head sculpt is okay, i agree that overall the figure is lackluster at best.
personally, i do not think that it is better than my space-filler fixup and will not be buying an official cesaro until i feel they get it right.
also, i am hating how they're using that torso for everyone. it's very skinny. no good for the new codys either.

I just don't like it, the elite will hopefully be better.

The Elite should look much better, ordered Basic since it's his first.

I'm looking forward to seeing that scan fixed up on here with a better paint job. Cesaro NEEDS this torso for his elite. Make it happen Mattel.
