They look cool but a pass for me. Also I'm surprised he can sell those considering he's using names that are copyrighted by WWE Anyone can do anything until someone finds out and cares enough...

What? You expect him to find figures that weren't even made? [br No but he's an idiot he hypes up stuff all the time. As one poster above said just say what it is what's with the big build up for a few pins wooopdy dooo What is wrong with you @hasbro2upking? You act like he personally wronged you by launching a line of custom pins. Don't like em? Move on and shut up. No sense in personally attacking the dude. Why WOULDN'T he hype them up. A lot of time and money went in to producing these and I'm sure he was pretty pumped about finally releasing them. These have Ron Rudat's blessing, so I honestly can't think of a better seal of approval on something WWF Hasbro related. I don't know what it is, but it seems like so many people on this forum have such an attitude and spew so much hate towards others. It's pretty ridiculous and makes me hesitant to share anything on here.

I agree with you, I think it's just people got hyped and were perhaps let down. but too true, if you don't like them or want to purchase them, then keep quiet and move along.

I do have personal issues with him which go back several months since I first spoke with him. He's an arrogance idiot.

I would have got them if they weren't so expensive.
Shipping and dollar conversion for me in Canada then I don't know what to do with them?
I said that if he'd had made XL large pins at 4.5 inches, I might have been sold.

Why wouldn't he hype the product he was trying to sell?
Guy is legit.
Years ago he found sealed cases of Hasbro Series 1. I bought a set from him.
Guy went to Hasbro artist's HOUSE to get prototypes, drawings, etc.
He made some cool pins. Relax. You don't want them? Just don't buy them.

I like the badges and he did say before hand they weren't figures! It might be a good idea if someone sent these sketches/pictures to the mattel design team so they can use them to base retro figures on!

I think they're pretty cool. I've wanted to do something similar with the line art prints I've got from the Blue, Purple, and Green card sets.
Stuff like this isn't really cheap to make, especially with the custom packaging. I can see some people being let down, but I still dug the reveal.

Mattel isn't going to outright copy figures Hasbro was going to make. Only figure of those 5 we have a realistic shot at is Diesel but of course it won't be the same as the drawings.

The Mattel Undertaker is very similar to the Hasbro one though so you never know. I like seeing how the Orange card series figures would have looked and the backing cards are very cool.

I think it's cool that he has kindly shared the artwork. Truly amazing that they hadn't come about years before. Also, personally I would have not made a premiere of the pin badges. I know he's interested in selling them, but surely you would have more custom if you were slightly more honest with people.
