Starting in 2019, Mattel began releasing “Collector’s Edition” figures in the WWE Elite line. These figures are sometimes flashbacks/legends, sometimes a lesser known talent, sometimes a figure that could have easily held a main spot in the elite line. They are released with each elite wave, with the exclusive going back and forth between Walmart and Target. Due to their more limited availability, some of these figures have become highly sought after, as people try to complete the Collector’s Edition wave.
Personally, I have about half of these, as some of them I have passed on (Sherri, Iiconics, Wolfe, Dunne) and some I’ve never seen in a store (Brisco, Patterson, Monsoon). Finding these Collector’s edition figures can be challenging at times.
Beginning with the first Collector’s Edition release from 2019, this is a checklist of all that have been released to this point, along with the next four to come. Update your list and happy collecting!

Collector’s Edition Hits and Misses:
The hits: Zodiac, Kama (this one might be figure of the year for 2021), Davey Boy Smith, Undertaker. Young, Blassie, and Graham are very accurate. Monsoon, Patterson and Brisco are excellent as well.
The misses: Bob Backlund is tiny, Neidhart has a horrible face scan, Michael Hayes could have had a better attire.
My collection of these: Bob Backlund, The Rock, Jim Neidhart, Undertaker, Davey Boy Smith, Kama, Colonel Mustafa, Warlord, Zodiac and The British Bulldog. I want to add Michael Hayes, and Gorilla Monsoon at some point.
