I finally got around to re-sizing these pictures, got all of these last week from Ringside(AEW) and Amazon (UFC).
AEW Unrivaled Series 1
Cody & Brandi Rhodes
Skin color aside for Cody, I really like it, it's great to finally have an American Nightmare version of Cody on my shelf. Brandi looks good, and I love how much she's put the figure over on Dynamite and Dark, I pop every time I see Lil Bran Bran.
'Le Champion' Chris Jericho
I had no idea the attire from this figure and the Bubbly were the same, I thought there was a little difference, so I was bummed about that. The scan is fine. The jacket and scarf are very nice additions.
Kenny Omega
Easily the figure I anticipated the most, I am so happy to finally have a Kenny Omega. The hair isn't as egregious to me in person as it was in pictures. The ring jacket is very nice, but I haven't had an easy time clasping it shut. I ordered the ring (no idea where I'm putting it) so I can't wait to see how the green tights Omega comes out. The skin color on this figure is the worst of the bunch.
AEW Roster w/ Mattel placeholders (forgot Hager!
)
Bullet Club reunion (?)
Jon 'Bones' Jones
All the dumb things Jones has done over the years aside, pound for pound he has to be the best MMA fighter of all time. The new UFC title is ugly as hell in real life and just as ugly in figure form.
Conor 'Notorious' McGregor
I love the old UFC championship belt, wish it had some shine to it like the WWE belts, hopefully when these things really get off the ground next year. I wish there was a set of hands that really allowed him to hold the flag behind his back because I got it to look good once, and can't get it again. It's in scale with Jones, but obviously from the pictures, it is very small overall.
AEW Unrivaled Series 1
I'm not going to beat a dead horse about the skin tone on the male figures, I trust Jazwares knows they made a mistake and will correct it down the line (hopefully). The ab crunch from the Ultimates took some getting used to next to WWE Elites because of how different they looked next to each other, BUT since these will all have the same look, I am willing to give it a pass. I don't love it, but as long as they're all uniform that's fine.
The packaging is excellent, with a nice callback to the Jakks Classics, although for MOC collectors, I could see these being a problem cause my Cody came already cut at the top.

The Young Bucks
Matt and Nick Jackson
Much like Kenny, I am thrilled to finally have the Bucks in my collection. The jackets are absolutely incredible, my biggest fear is they will rip if you repeatedly take them off. They are hanging on by tiny threads on the back and I could already see them stressing when I took them off once and put them back on. The scan on Nick looks better than Matt to me. The proportions on the Bucks lower bodies are strange, definitely think the thighs are too big.AEW Unrivaled Series 1

UFC Ultimate Series 1
Initial thoughts, the fabric shorts were a horrible idea, the flags are a cool little touch, and the extra heads and hands are great. This is as far as I'm going down the well with series 1 considering it will change by next year. I considered DC but I passed for now.
