Bill said the next SmackDown ring will have the correctly scaled posts and turnbuckles. I think they should make a new batch of the Raw ones and sell them to people so they can buy a ring, along with the new posts. Kinda like Jakks did with the Wrestlemania ring. If they don’t, I’ll definitely pick up the SmackDown version. Was that in an interview? I must have missed it. I'm pretty happy with the Raw ring as is (especially for $85). If they make a better one, great. I gave my ASR away. Someone had it in a Q&A thread which was typed for people who didn’t wanna watch the video I think. I saw it on here and on instagram.

Ok so I've tried to get a few shots showing the scale but I'm not the best at this... Re. "undersizing" - I think it's far more accurate than the ASR - that was too big Outside the ring Inside I thought the ring height would bother me and is the only reason I've held off for so long but it's great! Genuinely the quality is top notch - the ring canvas is such good quality

Feel the same way. It’s a great ring. It plays well and the ropes aren’t bad at all.

I feel like some of the comments in this thread are ridiculously harsh. It's fine not to like the ring and give your opinion, but to suggest someone is "less of a collector" if they have the ring is cray cray.

low posts, absolute garbage turnbuckles and pads, a stairs that is in one piece and another announce table that has a 99% chance of not fitting together properly for over $100? not a chance. Any real collector already has a million better rings. A real collector? Do you use that line on the ladies? I wish someone of you kids on here would go to ringsidefest and say the stupid crap you say on here to someone twice your size. Just shut up

Keep it civil, guys. Let's act like adults here. I don't want the mods to lock this guy's thread.
Moving on, I just got the ring yesterday and it's a very high wuality ring. It doesn't feel cheap at all. It feels very high quality and sturdy. The ring posts from canvas to top turnbuckle are same height as the basic ring posts, which is a big bummer. However, it feels higher quality than the Authentic/Elite Scale Ring. That's coming from someone who loves the customization the previous rings offer.
Goldberg is a great figure. His goatee isn't actually long. It stops at his chin. His snarl makes his chin seem longer, but the goatee is normal sized. The figure is top notch, the body parts are all good choices, I feel. I didn't care before, but now I'm ecstatic to have Goldberg.
The announce table in mine is very stable. Announce tables are one of those things where it's a luck of the draw if it's stable. I have like 10 tables now and some are very stable while others pop apart if you look at it wrong. It's usually an issue with the side panels. The office chairs are beautiful. I hope they release these again because they are far surperior to using folding chairs for ypur commentary team. The stairs, despite being a single piece seem very decent quality. 2 pieces would've been better, though. Also, one of my RAW ring LED screens was printed upside down which is annoying, but I'm sure others will not be.
Is it a great ring? Absolutely. Is it worth $100+? Eh... I still can't justify that. I got mine on sale. Despite the ring's quality, that seems very pricey for a ring with plastic, nonremovable turnbuckle pads, short posts, and single-piece steps, despite everything else that comes with the ring. $80 is definitely worth it. I felt that the ASR was way overpriced at $80 MSRP and this ring has me feeling the same.

I think something around 69.99/79.99 is far more reasonable(!).

I thin general consensus is for play its the best ring out there
For display and people to take pictures, not great
This is last a lifetime of play though, the ASR was already showing signs it was on its last legs

It's mych easier to play with than the ASR simply because it's smaller. Why do you say the ASR is on it's last legs? I have 5 and they're all in good shape still. Even my Mattel ESR is still in top condition.
