They made the wrong Ultimate Maniac as a DM.

You're absolutely correct. I for one will not be buying this turd of a figure. At least now that the Kmarts near us will be liquidating they'll be forced to give the millions of e26 warriors away. I'm not going to get it either. More on principle than anything but a DM with only glasses? . That. The Dm line has become a line of figures that extremely easily discountable. Mattel is just begging retailers to still buy these

What a joke. Like others have said this is essentially Elite 26 with LESS details.is this how Mattel operates? Just take the figures collectors want the most and find a way to make them more expensive? Such bull.

Sigh What a total letdown for me. I don't mind it being Warrior at all. But not that look and the little glasses for the accessory kills me. That is 100% Mattel pushing the boundaries with collectors to the absolute limit. 25 bucks for a 20 dollar figure I won't say anything else on it, as I've said enough already. I'm sure half of this thread's posts have already been reported anyway. this figure.

Now instead we will get macho with no accessories and pay more for warrior with no accessories.

the figure itself...i don't see how u can really complain about. The only thing that looks a lil iffy to me, is that the torso looks like the new Ryback torso.
Which wouldn't make sense....seeing as how good the e26 Warrior looked w/ the slimmer non-steroid look. That torso was always too thin for e21 Ryback, but was perfect for the singlet warrior.
im surprised ppl even remember Warrior in a singlet. I've watched wrestling pretty hardcore since 87....and i barely recall it.

To top things off, unlike E26 it looks like they painted the skintone onto Warrior's chest.
To the discount aisle!

Honestly, I think it's great packaging and that they may have used the DM line just so they could use that particular packaging. I can't find any other accessories that may have came with this figure other than a red cloth tanktop with the Ultimate Maniacs logo and a microphone. Yeah, it probably should have been Macho with all of the accessories that he possesses, but there would probably be a complaint that he just had a DM. So, it's lose/lose for Bill and Mattel.
I'd rather just enjoy the figure and the packaging without looking too far into it.

I'll definitely buy it at some point, but the Defining Moments line isn't what it used to be. I don't expect that this will drop to Elite 26 Warrior prices, but somewhere in the $20 range is okay by me. Had this been based on Warrior's return at WrestleMania XII in '96, I would have gladly preordered one. I hope Mattel eventually gets around to that look, but at the same time I can appreciate what they've done here. Thanks for sharing.

I just wet myself a litte bit.
Defining moment or not, that much paint would have killed an elite budget I imagine. If this was the way to get it in, so be it.
