What is the deal with the announce table that comes with the Shane McMahon Elite?
I was excited to finally replace my old Jakks table with an updated, sick looking Mattel table, but I cannot get the damn thing to go/hold together. What am I doing wrong? Is it just me or is this thing a piece of garbage?

Sports fan...don't even get me started. Option 6 right now on the Hotline is just me cursing about this.
Found that setting it up upside down worked best to get it to hold.

It's a piece of garbage. Still a great accessory for a 1st time in the line.

I've been fortunate enough for mine to stay together but I know some people put some clear nail polish on the tabs to make it fit tighter.

here is how i fixed mine: - laid the warped wall in hot water, it straightened and then I laid it in cold water - used the biggest clear elastic that comes with it (keeps it tight in the packaging and actually is the reason why the walls bend in the first place), it stretches perfectly around it, secured it right at the top Now it is sturdy and strong, I don't really play with it and put McMahon's through it.. No dramas! Eventually it will straighten itself out. Here is a pic of it, you can just see the elastic in the corner above Lawler's speech bubble

It's insanely frustrating. I have another announce table that came with the Slammy Award set that's the same way.

Yeah, I purchased the Ringside Mayhem accessory kit, and the announce table that came with that is a little touchy as well. The one side doesn't "click in" like the other side does.

Is it just me or is this thing a piece of garbage? I have 3 Shane McMahons. Their tables are very sturdy, kinda sturdy, and falls apart if you even look at it. On top of that I have 4 other announce tables. 1 of which explodes at the faintest sneeze. That's 7 tables total! Near as I can tell, it has to do with the pegs (for lack of a better term) on the sides of the table legs. The part with the screw through it. It's wonky AF sometimes. I'm not sure how to fix it.

Superglue the front and sides together. Then you can slide one top piece in and clip on the other. It wont collapse flat obvs.
These announce tables all suck. The jakks one wasnt half as bad but still too many pieces to keep putting together. My fave one still is the red raw announce table from jakks with the clipboard molded on. I hollowed out the clips so that it goes together easy and breaks easy. You can get it in blue as well.

I must have a magic table because I find it so easy to put together.
I start with the two small side pieces and then add the top one before finally putting the front piece on. Then I just add the monitors and cover. I've never had a problem.

Mine is holding together fine but it was a pain to get together in the first place. I think it's designed like that to break easily when someone gets slammed on it.

I don't have the Elite Shane, but I do have a couple of the tables from the TRU build a Table and one other from a ring set (?) And I am pretty sure they are all the same mold. That said they all hold together fine and break apart fairly easy when you have a figure put through it. (Yes I did try them out when I first got them)

Put the top and 1 leg on first then the last leg and it should snap into place easy

Mine has the opposite problem. It doesn't want to break at all.

My only announce tables are the old Jakks ones. They annoyed me as I they never wanted to break apart (the tables were the same). You had to slam a figure through it with all your might, & often the table part itself still wouldn't break, just the supporting panels. If these new ones break easily, I might have to buy some.

Is there a difference between the table that came with Shane and the Build an announce table that came out a few years ago
