Well. They've finally arrived here in jolly ol' England. Gotta say I felt like a kid ripping into the packaging and having a play around. But when I put them with my collection is when they really shine

Damn, Warrior looks pale... Compared to Hasbro - he's positively Sheamus 😀

Are they in the shops in England now??? Think they are only available from certain online shops. I love the idea of walking into a shop here in the UK and seeing them on the shelf, hopefully not too long to wait for that

Are they in the shops in England now??? Sure are dude. I think Toys R Us, Smythe's and The Entertainer passed on stocking them (from what I heard) I got mine from an online store. The two stockists I know of are blocked.com and toysandmasks.com (found them via twitter)

They're nice but... a little disappointing to me. I guess I was hoping for an extension of the Hasbro scale and design.

Scale wise, look and feel is as close to Hasbro as it is possible to be. I see the new "moves" as a natural extension of what Hasbro could've done back in the day...I'd like to see a clothesline action in the next series (assuming their is one)

Yup, there's photos of Austin, Kane and Rock somewhere on the mattel threads. Also come up in google search. Austin looks just like the Hasbro clothesline figures, but looks to have an extra articulation point to turn the right arm, but can be posed just like the Hasbros too.

The figures do fit in seemlessly. I heard the Warrior and Undertaker Retro Series figures will be out March 27th here in Canada. Will be sure to check my local Wal-mart today.

Series 2 looks great so far. Austin, Rock, and Kane are all 3 must gets. Plus the other 3 rumored are Triple H, Sting, and MANKIND. Holy crap, yes. And I hope it's surfer Sting instead of Crow Sting!
