Can't wait for these to come out. I'd like to see how detailed the HHH fig is. Good job Mattel, now how about a ring for these?

Series One has been out for a while now and has run its course so hopefully these show up in stores soon now that we have MOC pics of these. Also it would be great to see Series Three at SDCC and have it out by the end of the year.

Are these heads in scale with elites?

I loved series one, but series two is a disappointment.
Austin is probably my favorite in the set. I don't like that the clothesline are has articulation, but other than that it's pretty great. Kane also looks good.
Mankind's head looks good, but why is he sleeveless? And he has the same problem I have with the Austin with that arm.
I'm not happy they're bringing back the jumpers, but why in the world does HHH use that movie?! Sting I get, but HHH doesn't do anything like that.
I also don't care for The Rock having the a gorilla press. It looks awkward.
I'm not sure if I'll get all of these. Austin and Kane are likely coming home with me, and maybe Sting. I just don't know about the rest.

Great job on these. Cool lineup, love that they've got for a straight "attitude era" set. Still patiently waiting for more from the 95/96 time frame. Undertaker was a start!
I'm only a vintage collector so don't follow the modern scene too much - what's the likelihood of seeing further sets shown at SDCC?

I absolutely love these. I hope they make a lot more, like Diesel and a new HBK

This line is so awesome. My only complaint is I wish they could pump them out faster. But then again with all my collecting my wallet can barely keep up as it is.

I love these - buts as a MOC collector, that modern photo of Sting (instead of a WCW/'97-'98 one) is going to annoy me... how on earth did that happen!?
Also, I was kind of hoping we'd get a different card outline colour for each series (like the Hasbro's had), rather than the dark blue again...

I only have one Walmart remotely close to me and they never have these. Someone picked up Brock/Cena for me but I'm a little afraid I won't be able to get get Warrior and Taker

I ended up getting them off the bay for $15 each including shipping.

Jumping action with closed legs for a guy that does the Pedigree? Makes sense. I know a lot of people are excited to collect this line, myself included, but decisions like this are why I'm glad we're still not in the Hasbro era. This Triple H isn't even good enough to measure up to the Basic, let alone the Jakks CSDA, TTL or BCA versions of this attire.

I feel like everything about this Retro line is a love letter to the Hasbro line, for better or for worse. Like I said in an earlier comment, if you intend to play with these, I completely understand the dislike for the legs, but if you're a MOC collector like myself, it's largely irrelevant. I do wish the picture for Sting matched his figure. Maybe they'll fix it before producing them.

All of those plus I'd love a Hart Foundation tag set, Tugboat, Backlund, Cobra Jake, Vader, Goldust, LOD without Spikes and Flyin Bryan! I'd take some more attires for Macho and Warrior too (needs a diff mold than the S1 Warrior had though)!
