Thank you to Mattel for providing their WWE Elite Series 65 Aiden English figures for review.
Availability: January 2019
Aiden English is packaged in the standard window box as seen with other modern WWE Elite figures by Mattel, with images of him on the left side, and an action shot of him on the back along with a brief bio. Also shown are the other figures available in this wave.
Aiden English comes with a removable cloth coat, and is offered in two versions, a regular version with a striped scarf, and a chase variant version with a plain scarf and paint applications on his right thigh, and the front and back of the upper part of his pants.
The head sculpt is nicely done and Mattel has once again captured a great likeness, with details such as the bard and mustache sculpted on and given a paint wash over it.The hair is combed back and nicely sculpted, and the additional details such as the eye, nose and ears came out great.
Aiden English is given a pale tone and bare wrists flesh tone as he is seen with in the ring, and he’s also given black pants and black boot, with a brown belt and silver belt buckle. The boots are nicely desired with the laces sculpted, and there are silver buckles on the outer sides of the boots, along with wrinkles to give it a realistic look and feel.
Aiden English also comes with a WWE microphone, interchangeable hands and black rounded sunglasses. The sun glasses may be tricky to place on his nose and ears, but if done right they’ll stay on.
His articulation includes a ball jointed neck, ball hinged shoulders, swivel biceps, hinged elbows, swivel wrists, swivel waist, ab crunch, ball jointed hips, swivel thighs, double-hinged knees, swivel calves, hinged and rocker ankles.
Overall, both version of Aiden English are excellent figures with great attention to detail and superior paint applications. Fans of the WWE Elite line-up should pick this figure up along with others from Series 65, which are all available now.
