no interest at all in this diorama piece; and although Alundra is worthy, it's not enough for me to pull the trigger on that purchase. I'm really surprised how everyone is over-the-moon with Razor now that he has a new shirt. I think cloth on this size of figure looks ridiculous unless it's a robe and honestly wouldn't we have all preferred an in-gear Razor with his multitude of colours? Considering what it could have been had a cloth shirt not been included, or had it been some checkered design that people couldn't remember to save their lives, I'd say it's a pleasant surprise for many members of the board. We didn't get another Razor in ring attire, but this is the next best thing. I remember the vignettes and I like a little variety in my collection. Not to mention, the toothpick hanging out of Razor's mouth is proof to me that Mattel wanted this figure to be unique and not just another repaint.

The HBK WILL have the tattoo: Good and for reference and random who cares info, I just watched Raw episode 14 or 15 last night and he definitely had it in early Spring 1993. It was the Raw where they showed a clip of him hitting Mr. Perfect with a trash can backstage and Shawn called Mr. Perfect "Mr. Grover from Sesame Street." Close.

this shawn is too much like the ringside one One is from WM8 and one is from WM 10. One has patches as a logo on his pants, and the other has hearts. One was from a classic match and the other wasn't.

Not a rumor, but I would really like a build-a-funeral parlor set. I would like the figures from the first time Hogan and Flair met on T.V. However, since they won't release a Hogan figure, they could do Paul Bearer, Undertaker, Randy Savage, and Roddy Piper. Or you could replace Flair with Taker since we have already received a Taker in that attire and Flair would come with an attire we haven't gotten from him and the WWF Title and WCW Big Gold Belt. But it would be kind of odd not to get an Undertaker with a funeral parlor set. I just really want Piper and Savage in those attires. Would be cool if Undertaker came with Hogan's gold chain like the picture below. I really hope they make that piper attire. Darker colors would be a nice change for him. I agree, It would be a change of pace for Piper figures and he wore that pretty much from the end of 1991 till wrestle mania 8, so it is not an obscure attire for him - he wore it pretty regularly during his IC title run.

These are all amazing. Need them all. Just ordered the first 4. This series is so good, who do you hope for next? I'll go with Mr. Perfect (IC Title), WCW Bret Hart, Vader (Removeable Mask) and Amhed Johnson (longshot)

Placeholder lineups usually become at least mostly true. It should be one of the following: Piper Vader Mabel Rvd Or.. Bearer Steamboat Dude love dusty rhodes One thing is certain though. You aren’t getting Ahmed Johnson. He is currently suing wwe

I'm super excited for the possibility of Piper's Pit and the Funeral Parlor, especially given how well done the Heartbreak Hotel was executed.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure dude got moved to elite 62 I heard and that will help avoid any issues with this being an exclusive to USA and just in general not getting enough of a widespread release. I think that move bumped the bearer set in favor of the Hbk set and next on the list is Piper but it may end up being bearer instead. I love these. I’m mostly not interested in the first two but I just may need to complete the parlor and the pit.

Really hoping the next set is either build a Pipers Pit or Build a Funeral Parlor.

Really hoping the next set is either build a Pipers Pit or Build a Funeral Parlor. After these two, what else is there? Barber Shop would be interesting. Brother Love's show, but I don't remember him having an extravagant set. King of the Ring set, chair, crown/scepter, podium.

That would be cool.

I've been trying to think of other build-a-set ideas, but honestly have drawing a blank beyond the few mentioned here. But it seems like there is some decent budget room to work with in this line. The Heartbreak Hotel set is all new tooling and there's a fair amount of plastic there, plus we're still getting fairly deco heavy figures, a cloth shirt, and two new head.
I'd love to see some WCW sets as well, though nothing iconic is jumping to mind. But I'm excited to see what Bill and company come up with for this line.

I'd kill for a Viscera as well eventually.

Never had intrest in any line besides Hasbros and now the retro line, but this looks cool! If only the sign was done so it actually lit up.

Dumb question, but why isn't Diesel in this set? I know he's out in another line, but he should have been in this set and Doink or Alundra could have gone to the other set.
