Hasbro attires with Michigan varsity jackets. The varsity jackets have to be included somewhere. One possible idea is to have them with extra heads. You could have a Scott Steiner figure which includes him with dark long hair, maybe even a pony tail and then include an extra head with short blonde hair and goatee. With Rick you could include one head with removable ear guards, a bandana and sunglasses or again have two different heads. 100% they will substitute the Mattel "M" in place of the Michigan one. |

Hahaha.. Plain varsity jackets will do fine then. |

He never wore that attire when he had short blond hair. |

Well, they did put the U of Oklahoma logo on Jim Ross's lapel. So U of Michigan logos aren't out of the question. |

He should wear something that makes sense for both. In saying that there are figures with extra heads that don’t match with what they’re wearing. |

I expect to see lots of Steiner's, should get the Hogan treatment incase you know who decides to say something.
Infact, I hope some lines were adjusted to fit them in asap.
This a big f'n deal.

He's a big enough name to get multiple figures with both looks. |

Definitely getting the Steiner Bros. as a tag team figures. Don't really care much for Big Poppa Pump (*ducks*). I always loved the crazy, colorful attires of the 80's and early 90's that some wrestlers wore, and the Steiner's are the epitome of that. So, can't wait to get these. Hopefully, we see what the first gear is that we're getting soon!

I hope they do a Ruthless Aggression Scott Steiner from his WWE 2002-2003 gear like Survivor Series, Royal Rumble or even No Way Out. I just wonder how they will do the 69 or like Jakks just put 00 and a circle in the middle lol. And the S as well. Still very happy and excited for anything Scott Steiner!

Scott Steiner is 100% bomb. If I booked WCW in 1991, I would have had him double cross Ric Flair, making him the champion. If WCW had to do a brand differentiation of being legit in ways that WCW was not, Steiner would have fit perfectly with the pre-performance era of pro wrestling, just like Vader did. Even as a face, he came off as a dangerous psychopath and a more convincing one than any other character I've ever seen. He and Vader in FMW-style shoots with hard way would have sold. He was a legit 60s/70s style performer
Just as good as "Big Poppa Pump."
Probably the biggest missed opportunity, for whatever reason, of anyone since 1986. I'd definitely get the Steiners.

WCW actually did try to push him during that time. They gave him a number of solo matches, even one or two against Flair. From what I remember reading, he seemed to not do so well in this role. Though he was solid/very good in the ring, his character and interview skills were not very good at this time. If he had the persona and charisma from his Big Poppa Pump days in the early 90s to go with his in-ring ability, it probably would have worked. I think some of the reports said he wasn't too sure of himself at that time, and that he seemed a bit lost out there by himself. You have to remember, he was only in professional wrestling for about 4 and 1/2 years by 1991, he probably wasn't ready for the push. The WWF also wanted to push him as a solo wrestler when they brought the Steiner Brothers in in 1993, but Scott refused to break up the team. There was talk of him winning one of the Rumbles, in 1993. "WWF talent relation officials Pat Patterson and Bruce Prichard were enamored with Scott Steiner and pitched an idea to Vince McMahon for Scott to come in as a surprise entry into the Royal Rumble in 1993 and win the event, then moving on to win the world championship at WrestleMania 9. However, Vince was not keen to the idea and both the Steiners themselves voiced their desire to remain as a tag team, therefore Vince began booking them as such." |

My layout is more theoretical, but it's more the idea that I wouldn't have competed in terms of sports entertainment as much as to make a main event event of credible people who wouldn't have thrived in that environment. So promos wouldn't have mattered as much, and character work would more have been conveying danger without the theatrics. Steiner looked like a clinical psychopath when he would hit the Frankensteiner. It was his eyes and the pleasure he exacted from having hit his move. And yes, I couldn't see McMahon endorsing an outsider like Steiner for an immediate win. He doesn't and has never thought that way. One similar attempt was with the Texas Tornado. Problem was that he overdosed within 3 months. Tornado was clearly booked to be for Warrior what Beefcake was to Hogan. Instead, he got moved down to opening match status in no time since he was a liability |
