I’ll be sad if the line is cancelled, but not overly upset over this set being cancelled. Almas the only one I really want. Strong was a MAYBE at best. Titus and Itami, never. Here’s hoping the line isn’t gone, and that Andrade gets a release soon.

I am gonna be furious if this is true. I’ve been wanting Almas and Strong since the reveal. Almas is gonna be my IC Champion in my figure fed and the figures both look absolutely perfect. It would be absolutely ridiculous to not release them

No loss to me, but sorry for those who did want them. No loss to me either.

Mattel canceled the Hall of Fame line after not being able to meet the demand. Nothing would surprise me with Mattel. If they came out tomorrow and said "we are starting the main Elite line and basic line over" i would first say "wow Mattel is actually giving us news." Followed by "of course they are".

FUDGE! I just got to thinking. So with this series being cancelled, that means Roddy will be pushed back and into some other Elite series (most likely).
I hate to be nosy but I’d like to know exactly how many figures have been pushed or have been put on hold. So far I can think of...Billie Kay (shoved into BP series), Wendi Richter, Naomi, Paige, Roddy...who else? I’m wondering how backed up they are at this point.

And biggest of all one of the biggest rising stars in the company in Andrade Cien Almas. I really hope they get NXT5 out

I’m just so curious as to where these are at?! Plus the Superstar Dolls....I feel like Mattel may be trying to configure where to put everything.

The fact that Itami was on the roster for 5 years, and they still couldn't get an Elite out in time, is simply preposterous.

The only one out of series 5 I really wanted was Rodrick Strong. So I hope he gets released somewhere down the road. The Andrade figure just looked weird to me, hopefully he’ll get retooled. It would have been cool to have a Titus elite, hopefully he still gets released but if he doesn’t I’m okay with it.

So wait over a year to bring out 4 new talent. But rush those 99 million romans and miz. I see why they are losing profit. Even if Mattel is losing money, I dont think Itami, Andrade, Titus O Neill and Roderick Strong figures will turn their business around.

I guess with WWE's failing ratings, it effecting Mattels quality.

Really sucks that Itami isn't coming out, but I hope Almas and Roddy are pushed into the main elite line sooner rather than later.

Roderick Strong and Andrade debuted in NXT in 2016. Titus O'Neil debuted in 2010 for FCW, and although some people don't think he deserves an elite, he's been a part of WWE for almost a decade.
I was looking forward to this set, now wondering if they will even be on the roster by the time we get the figures.
