If you have any of these in hand, these have much thicker proportions.
My biggest gripe with Mattel since 2010 is the stick figure limbs so many of them have. The legs especially ruin the entire figures for me. The skinniest Mattel leg mold should only be used for guys like Sean Waltman and a few others, instead some Bret Hart and all AJ Styles get them ugh.
These overall have more weight to them, and feel closer to a Jakks RA in that way.
Agree/disagree?

Totally agree. I only have the RSC Jericho so far, and it's damn near perfect. I really like it having more heft than the Elite.

I'm kinda fine with them being a little heftier, means they should probably stand a lot easier/better than some of my Mattel Elites (looking at you, Mabel and/or Viscera)

I’m waiting on my pre order but from afar I dig the bigger boot more stable base to it like a jakks
when I jumped back into collecting recently w the elites after 16 years the difference of the elites in that regard was puzzling but I guess it sell figure stands

Nice ... i was considering bidding up on it in the final seconds I shot him a couple questions said he gave the Jericho to his kid and Nick was the only other one he had but I don’t know the fact he only had one review and I’ll likely find one come Monday and I technically have it pre ordered as well I just couldn’t pull the trigger but awesome for you give us some feedback on it when it arrives and Yeah I’m pretty excited for how these will feel in hand vs elites still waiting on my pre order I suspect it will definitely influence my future decisions curious if you have one of the storm collectable and how that feels in regards to the Jericho |

I just noticed the release date at Walmart was Monday, so ugh lol. I do have a Storm Hogan and these have a similar premium feel. Solid with smooth joints. Of course without the butterfly joints and drop down hips. Not a huge Storm wrestling fan, as they are not a perfect 6.5 scale match imo. |

Def thicker. These just feel more solid. No knock to mattel by any means they just feel different.

Yeah but I don’t blame ya like I said I was considering it right up to the final seconds and I’ve got these pre ordered and going hunting Monday lol so trust me I get it I’m sure it will work out for you I get what your saying I don’t have Hogan but got Liger it’s a sturdy figure all though I’m guessing not nearly as articulate but yeah he’s doesn’t scale correctly beautiful figure though thats the thing though I want roughly that kind of sturdy feel w great articulation and it’s sounding like Unrivaled will deliver can’t wait |

You know when topics like this pop up, it's always customary to post pics... I mean...there are plenty of threads on here that have Jericho standing alongside his Mattel counterparts but I do agree the OP posting pics in this thread would have been helpful. |

I only have one Mattel WWE figure (some Elite AJ Styles from Target) but the Bubbly Jericho that I have definitely seems like a better quality product. It has a premium feel to it more like my Black Series, Marvel Legends etc
Certainly doesn't come across as a figure that should be slammed around a plastic ring.

I was actually going the completely opposite direction. I don't have any in hand yet, but these seem like the PERFECT figure to play with if you're a kid. The softer lower torso seems perfect for play. I loved the Jakks BCA line as a kid because you could beat the hell out of those figures and have some knock down brawls and the figures held up. It looks like these would hold up just as well. I love the Mattel line, but sometimes I feel like I'm going to chip the paint just rearranging them on my shelf. |
