Mattel now lists it for Oct 1st. RSC's preorder page says late September.

Oct 1 is kinda close to late September

What's the deal with October? You're not the eighth month.
What's the deal with the peanut? Is it a pea or a nut?

I initially had this pre-ordered, but I cancelled it. I couldn't justify it with them using the plastic spring ring turnbuckles on a so called 'Elite scale ring', but the turnbuckle pad is plastic and not removable like the ESR/ASR we've been getting for years.
I want the Goldberg figure, but I just couldn't justify it because the ring does not look good in my opinion and I think there will be more Goldberg figures in 2018 and I wouldn't pay $100 just for that figure.
So I'm passing. If it wasn't for the turnbuckles, MAYBE, but that's unacceptable to me. Those are the same turnbuckles from the $15 spring rings. That's not Elite nor SCALE. The ring also looks too short. Both the ring apron and ropes appear to only reach the figures waist.

Well, Goldberg's a bit older now, so it takes him longer to get to the ring.

I already see tags for it on the shelf at my local Meijer and TRU. They have to be coming soon.
But what do I care, I ain't picking it up.

This ring is garbage and way too expensive. If I see it at the store I might buy it, take the Goldberg, take a big old shi* in place of the figure and return it.

I'm one of the few that wants the ring and has no desire for the Goldberg. I hate how it takes so long to set up the current rings. My favorite ring of all time was the Attitude Ring with the 2 launchers in the BCA era. I am excited for this ring.

All I want is an elite Goldberg in ring gear with the Universal title around his waist. That's it. I am not buying this ring for that.
This cheap tactic (and by cheap I mean excessively expensive) is going to bite Mattel in the rear end.

I ordered it just for the Goldberg. I loved his run. Even though AJ's my top guy, Goldberg's stuff was my absolute favorite of the last year.
I wouldn't know if this ring is better than previous releases. My only other ring toy is the TNA six-sided set. (It still looks good!)

I want Goldberg, but in no way shape or form do I want to spend $100 on this ring. Even if I needed a new ring for me the biggest turnoff are the turnbuckles. For the price point you'd expect removable ones rather than a single piece. I'm also not a fan of gimmicks so the light up feature doesn't really do much for me. I'll wait till 2018 for Mattel to release a Goldberg... smart marketing at it's finest. I hope the wait is worth it and they give him a completely new body mold.

Not something I was ever planning on getting as I only want a WCW black trunks Goldberg. But it does make sense to pack him with the ring and sales will be fine as releasing it in October will have the holiday season to help move it. Parents will be more willing to spend $100 on it during the holiday season then they would if it was released in the summer.

It was always late September on Ringside, and October 1st on Mattel. I'll be getting it, especially since it's the only way to get a 2017 Goldberg.
