Now that it is confirmed he is part of Elite 44 and not a DM, what limited accessories will he coming with? This will be the 3rd Macho under the main Elite line , as it follows Elite 23 Macho that came only with a shirt and title and the E38 Macho that came with hat, glasses and rib tape. Based on this below are the options:
A. Hat, Glasses and RUBBER jacket " forget soft goods, not happining"
B. Hat, Glasses and Shirt "best case for me"
C. Hat, Glasses only " this would suck"
Can't really think of any other options they would release with this Macho.
Thoughts and preferences ? and yes we all agree it should have been a DM and not in the elite line, let's focus on what we are getting here and hope for any of the options above. MattelDesignTeam can maybe chim in on this?

I'm afraid I don't agree. There is no way either of the Ultimate Maniacs should have been a Defining Moment figure. I fail to see how anybody can deem this tag team as a defining moment in either wrestlers career. It's ridiculous.
They should have both been in the elite line, or the next elite 2 pack. The defining moments line means nothing. I missed the memo where Mattel changed the meaning of the words Defining Moment.
Using this tag team gimmick as a so called defining moment is in fact an insult.

Using this tag team gimmick as a so called defining moment is in fact an insult. I'd have to completely agree with you. Defining moments was considered the line for the iconic look and accessories, based on a great moment in history. The Ultimate Maniacs was non of that except the fact that it had Macho and Warrior in a team. After this figure it kind blurs the line of what Mattel considers "Defining Moments". They're are other looks in Ultimate Warriors career that have more meaning, than a tag team that didn't work for with of their careers. |

Why don't people add question marks to their topics ... When asking a question ?
The topic title suggests "here are Macho Mans accessories" but its a question instead of info.
Not a knock at you directly, but it's like people KNOW that if they put a question mark in the topic title, then people won't open it.
I can't be the only one on here that's noticed this is happening more and more frequently.
However, as an educated guess, the answer to the question will probably be "C" .

I would be absolutely content with shirt/hat/glasses included, but I definitely won't complain if we get some kind of jacket. Seeing as the Warrior DM is coming with the "Maniacs" glasses, its pretty much guaranteed that Mach will come with the "Ultimate" glasses. I can't really see us not getting the hat either. I really think we are going to get a painted on shirt. We've been seeing that more and more with figures like APA & Elite 41 Ambrose. I can definitely see that happening with Mach. It would be strange for this figure to get the same treatment as Elite 38, because in the matches I've seen he's wrestled in the shirt. I really don't know lol. I just can't wait to see what it's going to look like!

Was either Undertaker a defining moment?
Was Shawn Michaels losing a match at WM a DM?
Not really.
The line was blurred a long time ago. I don't think there are that many defining moments of Wrestling left to put in the line if we are going to be anal about it.
I think we will get option a) as I said in the same thread that the OP tried to blow me off in.... ;-)
We have the parts. It's just paint.

Well, I preordered it anyways so hopefully it's decked out with accessories. But it's macho man so I have to buy it no matter what. I didn't even want this version really.
I'm gonna pass on the matching warrior

This is why I'm upset that Warrior got the DM treatment over Macho
Machos accessories are absolutley VITAL. Warrior on the other hand had no accessories. Just detailed deco (nothing crazy enough to not warrant a regular elite line spot tho)
I'm afraid all we will get is Machos hat and glasses.....
What id really like is his shirt/top straight up panted on the torso , it was skin tight and didn't come off anyway.
I see 0 chance of a jacket coming with this one though.

I think Mattel backed themselves into a corner with this one and they know it. They should of made Macho the Dm and gave him the hat and jacket like the first DM. They failed to do so though and now it'll be a half assed figure while warrior not even deserving of the DM spot got it. Also if they give Macho a jacket how much would that piss off collectors knowing they paid 18$ for a complete macho when the first one was a higher price in a DM and the warrior came with nothing and was a DM also

Maybe..... Maybe... U.m macho man is an elite because they are saving a better attire for machos next d.m .... Like wm 3
Thankfully because the ultimate maniacs were just a flash in the pan of two otherwise very successful solo careers
I really doubt I'll get the maniacs but if savage turns out great then I'll get them both

A long time ago I think we mostly agreed here that we could stop taking the term "Defining Moments" too literally and just accept the line as a way to get us figures with a bigger budget for more deco/accessories, and that's all.
The last couple figs (GAB Sting, UM Warrior) have not been given the premium treatment that we've come to expect based on the previous figures in the line. Even though the price has stayed the same.
I hope this Macho Man gets hat, glasses, and a shirt. Don't bother with a rubber jacket.

I'd take a painted or molded shirt over getting him shirtless again. I wish they would have painted the top onto the HOF figure. Would have been perfect had they done that imo.
I honestly feel this is going to be just like E38 Macho, sadly.
