I'm really going back & forth here..... with 19 days to go - we haven't reached half-way yet.... Do we honestly think it's going to get funded? I'm hoping there will be big surges in the final weeks/days..... I seem to remember that's how the New Gen one went; kind of like a game of chicken - - - as the deadline gets closer - - - people start realizing this thing will NOT be made and there will be ZERO option to get it..... people start pulling the trigger..... What do we think? Is it hopeless, or just stalling? I think its somewhere in the middle. I thought the New Gen arena was rather hopeless there at one point but that thing surged unexpectedly at the end (granted Macho moved it some). I expect some bigger stores (RSC/other Wrestling Fig online stores) will buy in bulk towards the end to try to resell for higher margins. I just don't know if its going to be enough to make the difference. 2500 pcs is a lot of ground to make up in less than 20 days. I really do hope this thing gets backed. If it gets close to the finish line I might back 1 or 2 (1 to keep, 1 to resell in time). Currently not sure if I have enough room for this though.

This was like Galactus for me. I didn't have the room, but it's so right up my alley that I backed day one and I'll figure out the space. Although, I'm not particularly confident this will get made at this point. If I was to have one wrestling stage on display ever it'd be this Nitro one. I don't think there is anything I can see myself wanting more unless they did WCW PPV themed stages like Spring Stampede or Halloween Havoc. I guess an ECW entrance but that'd be a fraction of the size and I'd just make room for both. Regardless, this stage, despite the figure selection, is must have for me. I might even just display it with Toybiz figures on it if we get it.

I voted for "I will not be backing the stage because I have no interest in it" because that's the closest to my opinion. However, I don't have "no" interest in it. I'm actually a big WCW fan, however I don't have *enough* interest in this particular product to overcome the space and price.

New Gen Arena was at 67% with less than 26 hours before the Macho Man deadline. It hit 5k with less than 9 hours to go. It hit 7k with less than 3 hours until Macho deadline. It reached 8k in the final minute before the Macho deadline.
People were saying the same thing about the New Gen Arena. Nobody wants a ring. Nobody wants an entrance. I just want the figures. This crowdfund will fail. They added Macho and it barely moved the needle. Until the final day of that offer. It jumped 4,650 units in 24 hours to break all tiers.

None of the options apply for me.
I have NOT backed it yet but will if the warrior is unlocked. The stage is cool and I wouldn’t hate having it but I’d need the warrior to incentive it for me.

It was also Almost half the price with an additional ultimate figure at the peak of collecting during Covid.

But it funded. I’m just trying to give data to show that it’s too early to call this dead and you gotta wait until the last day to see what happens.
