Then the answer is all of the Basics/attires that haven’t been done in Elite form. You’re fun. It’s true. From a collectors stand point, I’d want as much variety of looks and as many characters as possible… the highest quality possible. It’s silly to ask “If Mattel could make ________ better, would you want that?” Umm… yeah!

Good idea. All CM Punk basics as Elites. That’s the whole line. Thanks. I second this.

This thread was created to be just for fun (not to actually make a new line). Just to see which attires you wish was Elites instead of basic. Not to be that guy but you literally stated in your original post that they should make a new line lol. For the sake of conversation though, basic 3 Great Khali, basic 26 Macho Man and basic 39 RVD. Reading is fundamental....I said in my original post was, "What if Mattel". English can be a hard language to read to some people lol

Definitely doesn't need to be a seperate line or anything, but I would love to see more basic attires (especially some older ones) made in the Elite line.

I just found it amusing how you make a topic about making a new line (sure you said "what if", but semantics.) and then double back on your idea after people said we don't need any more lines lol. Besides, I contributed to the conversation in my post so I'm not trolling. Just confused as to why you buckled and changed your tune when you were literally suggesting a new line be made. "What if" only implies that it was a hypothetical line but it was still your suggestion nonetheless.

Honestly, if they were to make an NXT specific line that was dedicated to taking all those basic NXT FTIL figures that we've gotten over the years and upgrading them, I'd go for it.
Naturally, for me, I'd want those NXT Basic Sami and Kevin figures as Elites, but also, if they felt frisky and wanted to release that cancelled Takeover Xavier Woods as an elite, I'd be all for it. Sadly, with as few people that were part of the olllld guard of NXT that are still in the company, I don't know how much material there would be Looking it up, Sami, Kevin, and Xavier are the only ones from the actual Takeover line that would work outside of the Johnny and Tomasso figures. AOP are back now but I'm pretty sure they already have Elites in that look? So maybe make it a limited run.
I dunno, there is something to the notion of rereleasing the ftil basics as Elites at least. I feel like so many people back in the day, their first rookie figures were pretty trashy and need upgrades. But also, the turnover in talent as it is these days, how many of those people are even left?

What if Mattel created an Elite line called: Level Up In this line Mattel takes an attire only released as a basic and now make it as an Elite (with updated head scan). Which basic figure would you like to see Level Up? I was thinking about something in a kind of similar vein, but making updated basics of figures we’ve already had in elite form but that didn’t receive their entrance gear.

Which basic figure would you like to see Level Up? I actually think its a great idea. Dont know why people had to sabotage a perfectly valid thread with snidey remarks about how they dont need it - lets face it,mattel release lines all the time that dont last long. And there are plenty basics to be updated, and blue l.o.d would be a solid release if they came back under contract

I’d second LOD, then Sid Justice, heel Slaughter, wm5 savage and the current ish trunks Bulldog

But also, the turnover in talent as it is these days, how many of those people are even left? Good points. There are plenty of attires that would benefit by using an Elite body and have Mattel make money for those Elite collectors who don't collect basics. Especially with the modern day head scan technology. It would be like a whole knew figure.
