Hoping the Randy Savage flashback will be his late-WCW Ponytail/Team Madness look, with a new headscan, since that's the main area of his career not covered in mattel figure form yet
EDIT: just saw the MDT post. Disappointed we aren't getting the Savage I mentioned above. But hopefully it will still have a new headscan. I just hate his 2 existing Mattel headscans which I feel are of very poor facial likeness. The rest don't interest me.

I seriously can't wait to see protos for this set. I haven't been this excited for an Elite set since before series 14

It's a good set, and depending on the protos could end up a great set. Cesaro and JBL as new guys in the line, the mandatory Cena is whatever, but then I'm looking forward to seeing attires on Triple H, Savage, and then the inevitable purple gloved Taker we knew was coming.

So hopefully that means we will get a WMIII Savage with a headband & robe... I'd have to buy him and a new pair of drawls! ;D

How could it possibly be when it just came out 2 weeks ago? We haven't even gotten a blue elite... Is it not Purple? Its more dark blue (indigo). Its supposed to be an Indiana Pacers shirt since they were in Indianapolis at Survivor Series when that shirt debuted.

This is the 4 Flashback Series: Savage - Original Boom Period Era Taker - New Generation Era HHH - Attitude Era JBL - WWE Universe Era The theme is the 4 eras of modern WWE history. Also, each figure is from a significant Wrestlemania in that era. My guesses are: Savage- WM3 (Pink/Yellow) Taker- WM12 (Purple Gloved) HHH- WM2000? (w/Attitude Title) JBL- WM21 (w/Undisputed Title, Jacket/Towel) Cena- "10 Years Strong" Blue Shirt Cesaro- Jacket and US Title

Dont mind the figures, not blown away though. Macho just needs an Entrance Cape or its pointless.
Also I recall MDT saying something like the Flashback series would be a no brainer or something like that, which made everyone think it would be a stable. I would never have guessed these figs if my life depended on it.

I would never have guessed these figs if my life depended on it. Yeah, for all our hopes of DX or NOD and guesses people have made, no one would ever think it would be one guy from each era. I think the Elite 23 line-up sounds great - but I am pretty disappointed that it is the Flashback wave. And I wanted WM 28 Undertaker with the coat - or Attitude Era Undertaker. But Attitude HHH should be good - if he's in tights. If it's trunks again - boring.

I was originally only going to get Cena, Cesaro, and JBL, but I may get Triple H and The Undertaker now that I have an idea what their attires will be. I'm a huge mark for Attitude Era heel Triple H, so that'a definite purchase. And if Undertaker is purple gloved, and that's another for sure buy as the Jakks Superstars figure in that attire has significant meaning to me personally.

Savage has a new Head HHH has a new head Undertaker has a new head JBL Has a new head Cesaro has a new head and VUM US title (jacket was too expensive to include sadly, we tried)
We've sculpted a lot of new heads lately

Nice. I'll get all of them except Cena and Savage (unless Savage has cool gear) Hoping for DX HHH and I'm guessing purple gloved Taker is a lock. JBL will have the jacket and hat, but no way he has the title too. Save that for Brock.
