The guy in this thread that's afraid of cooties getting on his manly figures is hilarious.
I think it's beyond cool that they're making these. Wrestling isn't embarrassing (as much) as it used to be.

Mattel lost $500 million in sales a year when the Disney Princess rights transferred to Hasbro last year. They need to try something. This line won't do $500 million a year, but everything helps at this point. If Mattel got the UFC license, they would recoup that $500 million easily

Heads up for those wanting to buy...TRU.com has most of this set up for preorder. I just bought Eva Marie and Becky Lynch. They are set to ship 8/9
The basic dolls are $14.99 and deluxe are $19.99. I think I read that the entire set with be up for preorder tomorrow (Monday). I was kinda bummed I couldn't get the Bella Twins. I'm planning on buying the rest of Friday if the website has the option. Pricey but any order over $29 is free. Can't wait til they arrive!

Im almost positive PJ and myself have explained this more then once that these are the same figures Mattel does for their DC Superheros Girls line. Same molds and everything if Im not mistaken. They're going to be in the Barbie/Girls sections at Walmart/Target etc. They wont effect the boys line. They wont effect the boys aisle (unless some nitwit retailer worker sticks them there).
As for the actual dolls/figures. I *might* buy an Alexa Bliss doll if it were to be released. I own a few of the DC Superhero girls figures and not a fan of them so Id pass on the smaller girls figures if released.

If you ask me, the WWE girls action figures are terrible looking. The dolls are amazing! Very realistic and far from what I expected. The action figures are just weird to me. Cool but very weird. Man guys I'm really glad I pulled the trigger on the Eva Marie today. They sold out about 3 hours ago. It looks like all of the dolls are now out of stock except for Becky.

Trying to get the Bellas, but the preorder is sold out right now :/ And when will these be hitting the stores? I heard Nikki saying July 27 on her YT channel, but that doesn't add up if pre-orders are shipping out 8/9..

Gotta love TRU, their press release says you can preorder starting on July 24th, then they put 'em up 3 days early and they're all wiped out, whoopsie?! I was hoping to get 'em all in one shot, guess that ain't happening for a while. I'm glad they're selling though, maybe one day we'll get a Kairi, decked out with a steering wheel.

Yeah I was quite shocked to see them up Saturday night. I about freaked because I only have cash on me and my paycheck doesn't hit til midnight on Thursday. So I went out and grabbed a TRU gift card after a toy and comic show I went to. So glad I did because I'm dying for that Eva. The weird thing is I never saw Alicia up. I saw everyone else but no Alicia.

Please lock this thread. . We had this crap about 2 weeks ago going on about doll's. Listen up. It is not a doll's forum it's action figures forum. If you want a doll go and buy a barbie or ken

If you want a doll go and buy a barbie or ken Listen up....dolls and action figures are both toys and you're a grown man buying toys. So I suggest you just drop your argument now because either way you're gonna look dumb.

Blah blah blah. It's not called doll's forum. It is called figure forum. Go and play with your doll. Once again, dolls...action figures...same d*mn thing. Made by the same d*mn company. We are both grown men playing with toys. This is a forum for nerds who collect toys of all sorts. This is one thread within hundreds of threads. Why even bother wasting your time arguing when you can easily skip over this thread and look at another one? If it doesn't concern you directly then why bother? Im actually disappointed I'm arguing with someone who probably hasn't been out of his mom's basement the entire weekend.

X Someone forgot their lithium pull today lol Back to what this thread is really about....To the gentleman asking about Nikki saying the 27th as a release date; I'm puzzled. I'm assuming she is either mistaken or she meant another date. It seems like no one had the hard facts as to when these were to be released, even for preorder haha. Who else agrees these came out of the blue? We just got word of them last month and got proto pics. I figured they'd take months to come out. I was thinking Eva wouldn't see the light of day. These dolls came outta nowhere haha. I'm a huge Barbie fan so these are welcomed on my end. The lightening speed release is even more welcomed. It kinda stinks Naomi and Bayley won't join in until Spring 2018 . Let's hope Alexa, Emma, Nia, and Carmella join them!
