They certainly deserve praise for doing something that Jakks couldn't do in 6 years during their CS line and that's make Savage and Steamboat. There's a Jakks Savage proto head on ebay. Wonder if it's real.

@monoxide23 I really doubt it, the closest Jakks Savage head I remember was when a bunch of guys on here commissioned a sculptor named Ada to make one and they'd all use it for customs. Could you upload a pic of this proto head? I can't seem to find it.

@monoxide23 yep, that's the Ada headsculpt Wfigs members commissioned! Here's The Warsman's custom with the head painted: She also did an Owen Hart sculpt too. **EDIT** Wars modified the Ada sculpt for his custom Savage but here's a thread of her other sculpts: forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/160568

Mattel's WWE line hasnt always been perfect, but I would still like to praise MDT Bill for some of the great figures they have produced like L4 Ultimate Warrior, L6 Kerry Von Erich, Elite Legion of Doom, etc

Hey Bill knows I love him just for the 2 DM Sting figures if for nothing else. Both of those figures are/will be centerpieces in my collection. And the B55 Sting is pretty d@mn sweet also.

Bill has made so many amazing figures. I literally cannot think of a bad one.
MY favorite has to be: ELITE 38 ROMAN REIGNS (with the RR vest on)
It is an impeccable figure, keep it up Bill!
Can't wait for the Elite Balor and the basic Kalisto showed at SDCC!

Ringside Exclusive HBK, Earthquake, Defining Moments Macho Man, Miss Elizabeth, and tons more. I know I say a lot of negative stuff towards Mattel, but it's because I love them and I expect great things!

I praise MDT & Bill and even RSC every time I drop $25-$30 on a wrestling figure. Which, seeing as how I own all Legends, Flashbacks & Defining Moments, I do it often. That still doesnt mean that I cant criticize them if I find they they took a cheap way out or they were lazy on something. If they look at it as people bitching/moaning or complaining then they might be in the wrong business. Its constructive criticism which helps them fix problem they are having in their toy lines to help make the customer happy. It all comes back to making the customer happy because if the customer doesnt buy, then you dont make money. If you're not making money, then you dont pay your bills and essentially you'll lose your job. I will say its also up to the customer to give their criticism in a professional manner.

Everyone better start blowing this thread up with gratitude towards Bill . I'm officially pissed the off. He gives us a set with Sid, 92 Bulldog, Godfather, and Sting and you people crap all over it. Thank you for that awesome set Bill. And I am really looking forward to buying that E39 Sting. I'm sure everyone else is gonna buy it too.

Bill has giving me my Legion of Doom Elites in Red, DM 80's Hulkster, Elite Big Boss Man, Elite DDP, Elite Razor Ramon, Macho Man, Warrior... I mean good god the list goes on! This is hands down the greatest wrestling figure line to date. I couldn't be happier. Now sure, I go off on tangents about Mattel. But, i still buy them. I may step away for awhile, but I always come back.
Bill, you will always have haters. Buy you do an amazing job! Thank You!

You can thank our resident dumb $h!t prosecutor LorenzoAlcazar for trying to be judge, jury and executioner and trying to burn Bill at the stake

I don't think it was criticism some of the figures were receiving, but rather the personal shots that people were taking at him. Which would pi$$ me off if I was Bill. Especially when coming here or showing prototype pics isn't part of his job. That is a courtesy. Back in the day we din't have the internet and if it wasn't in the Sears Wish book or a pamphlet packed in a larger toy you didn't see or know what was coming out until you walked into a store and saw it on the pegs.
