100% agree. Thatās why I stopped collecting this year. I kept buying thinking it was a down cycle. Any new stars that came on board I would miss and be kissed when I came back around to wrestling. Finally through the towel in as I donāt see wrestling ever going back to what I really enjoyed. Based on Fox deal and publicly traded company I donāt ever see an edge coming back. I thought with the network we might get a rated r live program but itās been a few years and theyāre just not going to go back there.
I did buy the flashback Angle, the Dude Love and want to get 5e shinsuke with replaceable hands. I also bought some Hardyās to have them in the Mattel collection. Iāll always buy Bret Hart and HBK, and select flashbacks, want that velveteen dream. But even my display went from all to about 50. I do check this site out once a week or so.
i didnt save save any money by the way, just transferred to the Marvel legends figures.

Iām pretty much done. Packed away the display, the ring , my stage. Will still pick up an occasional figure like angle, Hart, Jericho, hbk. I really blame wwe more than Mattel. I donāt watch or follow the product at all.
The kids and I have moved onto Marvel. And I like that product much better.

Just brought a cm punk RSC exclusive figure with the ecw title for Ā£40 pound MOC I've been after this for a while and the price has always been too much anyway next one i want is the SES cm punk has anyone got it if so is it worth buying? š¤š¤ Is it worth buying? Sir, this is the best figure Mattel has made and will ever make. It should be considered the pinnacle of anyone's collection. The songs that have been sung and praises told of this figure are all very true.Ā An accurate Shakespearean review.

Looking forward to seeing the parts breakdown. Only want multiples of Flair but like picking up extra elite suits and throwing different heads on them. With that being said Flair will probably have the Dillon head.

I say 19. But they have been knocking them out of the park lately. Elite 56 is great. But 57-59 look awesome as well. I think 56 is moving real good. They restock it slot by me and I always see different figs sitting, but never for too long.

Because that would make it an elite. And nobidy wants Mattel to burn an elite spot on Carmella to get her with a MITB. Because it's just a repaint of the gold briefcase Ok but if it's that easy, why no mitb Carmella? Bottom line is it's just picking who they want to make. I'd take jinder and Carmella over another corbin

Mattel is in it to make money. Thatās why you need to buy a ring to get him. I would guess 90% of the people who want Goldberg are over 25 years old. Iām sure Goldbergs merch deal bought him a few more muscle cars. So no, if he even knows, Iām sure it doesnāt bother him. Itās pretty smart to delay figures. Builds anticipation for them. Why spend the money on manufacturing a wrestlers figure when he might be irrelevant in 6 months. Other than us collectors, I donāt think thereās a bunch of 10 year olds holding there breath for Tye Dillinger. And now a mid-card Jinder. Do I want him yes. But I get it from a business perspective. The time it takes Mattel to manufacture and get a figure to shelves really is ridiculous. Itās been a problem with them throughout their time with WWE. The only figure I can remember taking a reasonable amount of time was Brockās first basic, he debuted around Wrestlemania and I recall having him in hand by about late October, early November. Thereās no reason Mattel canāt be shooting for this sort of timeframe with every major character. WWE really should be demanding that Mattel do all they can to reduce the time it takes to get figures out. Kurt Angle re-signed in January last year, The Hardyz in early April, we should have seen numerous battle packs, elites and basics of these guys in stores at Christmas time. The fact that weāve had just one marginalised, Goldberg figure in the almost 2 years since he signed with WWE shows the utter greed and contempt that Mattel treat their customers with. I guarantee you, given the sort of character Bill Goldberg is, that he wouldnāt be at all happy if he knew that the only way kids could get their hands on his figure is by their parents shelling out a small fortune. I fully expect to not see a Ronda figure until around Summerslam ā19. Talk about striking while the ironās hot.

Northern VA got them. 3 different stores all with different figs remaining. I was able to get them all though. Usually never drop that amount of cheddar all at once but I have no faith in Walmart restocking so I had to buy as soon as I saw them.

And guys that probably wonāt happen: 1. Shane Douglas 2. The Sandman 3. Jett Lynn 4. Mike Awesome 5. Spike Dudley I ask out of ignorance, any reasons why with these dudes? I guess I know, right now at least, Douglas has a spoiled relationship with WWE so I get that. What's with the rest of the dudes? Something personal with the Fed? Shane because if the relationship, Sandman was a little to edgy and I donāt hear his name to often in anything wrestling related. The other three I just donāt think thereās much of a market for. Taz, dreamer, Sabu, Rhyno, those guys had some recognition in wwe.
