I'll probably pass on these, I grew up with JAKKS so never had the connection with Hasbros as a child like some people here.

Not buying the Hasbro until I see the ring for them. I loved these things growing up. For some reason Bret HBK Hogan and Scott Stiener Razor M$M were my favorites

These were a pleasant surprise. I hope this line lasts for the duration of Mattels contract. Mutiple series, a ring, cage accessory etc. I just hope they really aren't Walmart exclusives, I've never had much luck finding things at any of their stores.

This was something I was pleasantly surprised by. This something that was on my wish list that Mattel could do and here they are. I really do hope they are the same size as the Hasbro's and the packaging style is very similar. If they can even use similar art on the back and do the profile cards that would be fantastic. I hope we get more of these especially figures that likely would have come out during the 90s like Diesel etc. My only problem is that they are a Wal-Mart exclusive and most anything exclusive to Wal-Mart from WWE, Star Wars, or any product line is impossible to find which means having to pay through the nose. Someone on here said they thought $6-10 would be the retail on these. I don't think they will be that cheap. The original Hasbro's were 20 plus years ago and they were $4-5 each. If the 3 3/4" Star Wars exclusives are $13 each I would say these will be around that price or more since they are geared to appeal to collectors. Just a thought.

It really is a dream come true. Its no lie I always wished Hasbro would come back. Its my all time favorite line. I grew up with them. Its just so crazy to think this is happening, they look so good. Please give us a Diesel, please.

Character choice is crap. Rollins needs to be in there over either owens or reigns. Scsa over warrior or taker.

Just this year I finally completed collecting the Hasbro line. (Minus the mailaway 'Taker & Bret as I consider them the same as the retail versions. It has been a long road since late 1991; but I got there in the end.
...and now Mattel pays homage to the line with these. Thank you.
I think its fantastic that they have made two figures in this set, who were also in the Hasbro line - it somehow feels that The Warrior and Undertaker figures connect the new to the old.
I will buy them all, and I hope the Line runs and runs.
P.S. I think Kevin Owens acton is the 'Giant Jolt' move that Andre and Akeem had.

Anyone have the video of Bill holding these in his hand? It would be nice to compare it to the Hasbro size.

1. They're Wal-Mart exclusives ... personally that's kind of disappointing but if that means they don't put out too many and are in high demand, while frustrating at first it would be great for the health of the line.
2. It's hard to tell exactly for scale but if you look at the pictures of the full case and do a comparison on your own (I just did with some hasbros and mattels) they sure look like they're the same scale to me! Hasbro heads go to around to a lot of Mattels' waists ... depends on the Mattel fig. Looks similar in the case.

This has made my weekend. I grew up with the Hasbro line so this is great news. I only hope they are easy to get hold of in the UK. If they are, I will buy them all (and any scale rings / cages etc.) that go with them.
Series 2 please:
Diesel, Dude Love, Seth Rollins, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Vader, Sting.

From the ages of 2 to 6yrs old, I got hasbros for Christmas between the years of 1990-1994. That being said, by the time 1996 arrived and I was 8...I discovered Jakks BCA and I couldn't even look at my old hasbros, they were with out a doubt totally outdated and useless. So my point is, if I had no use for them 20 years ago, I defiantly have zero interest in these. On the flip side, I'm happy for the young children which these hasbros are geared towards, and anybody who loves collecting hasbros, but I'm never a fan of going backwards in life. Hey, maybe I'd have a slight interest in a BCA resurgence though but I wouldn't even buy BCA anymore either.
