I put in an order for 2 of them. Mattel Team said in interviews that if this doesn't happen then future WWE Mattel Creations will be highly unlikely for anything else for a very long time. So with all the negative comments about the "ring", which is way better than those crappy RAW and Smackdown rings, good luck hoping for future items like that massive stage setup seen at Wrestlemania and SDCC or anything that has been on your Mattel wish lists since 2010 because if this doesn't happen nothing will. Just purchase one and sell the ring if you don't want it. I bought 3 Sail Barges when a lot of Star Wars collectors were saying the same thing that a project like the Barge wouldn't sell YET 8800 were produced and now the market for them has gone nuts the last 2 years where they sell for no less than $1800-2000.

Scored 2 Slaughters this morning. Hopefully one will be the chase. If not I am hooking up my friend who missed out on it. Now bring on that Ultimates Hogan and the Crowd funder!

Looking forward to what they will be bringing us. Hopefully Dynamite Kid, Adam Bomb, Nick Aldis and others they already have signed to the retro line.

2 were being shipped out of MN, says they were suppose to be here 3 days ago, havent left the warehouse yet.....One is shipping from Texas of all places and arrive tomorrow, I dont expect to see that till spring and one has been in Mississippi for over a week. Target may have, by far, the worst logistics Ive ever seen in my life. Well, Mississippi had a snow storm too, so that’s probably the reason for the hold up. I got my order today after my package sat at the FedEx depot in Olive Branch MS for 3 days. Well worth the wait. Got the chase M$M. Now I hope to find the regular version at the store 😂

I started working on a custom of Dr. D the day after I watched the episode. Have to paint his hair to match his actual color still.

Hey Steve,
Don’t know if this has been asked already BUT have there been any thoughts on producing the ring cart used in Wrestlemania 3 and 6 that could come with contracted legends who appeared at those shows as a build a vehicle?
Could be another opportunity to re-release that Ricky Steamboat in his WM3 attire 😉😉😉

The Elite 2 packs are reserved for main event level guys who can sell well. I don't think Duggan in a tux shirt and jeans would qualify. He definitely doesn’t but I didn’t want to be the first one to say it Do you have a better suggestion to get another Harley out?

Steve, Since it was mentioned that the elite 2pks will have legends here’s an idea to get another Harley Race out in the line. thumbs.gfycat.com/JaggedWeakArthropods-size_restricted.gifFrom the 1987 Slammy Awards. Hacksaw Duggan in blue jeans, tuxedo t-shirt, and 2x4 Harley in ring gear, cloth white button down tuxedo shirt, crown, 2nd head with powder and makeup The Elite 2 packs are reserved for main event level guys who can sell well. I don't think Duggan in a tux shirt and jeans would qualify. My comment was meant for Steve. I don’t recall reading that the 2pks are reserved for “main event” guys. If you don’t like my suggestion move along

Picked up Andrade NXT exclusive, WM Matt Hardy, Mick Foley, Booker T, and Basic Sarah Logan. No complaints here as I got who I wanted this time around

Couple of Qs.
How close are the women’s tag team belts coming along? Any chance we could see them come toyfair?
We know the standard “if WWE has a legends deal with former superstar we can use them” but how influential has your team been on WWE getting someone signed to a legend deal when requesting past talent? Has WWE ever asked for suggestions from the Mattel team or is it just you passing a list to WWE to see if they say yes or no?

TJ
I’m really digging the NJPW figs Y’all are doing at Super7. Preordered directly from your store. I have a question that I hope you can answer. Will there be a NJPW ring down the line?

Like every year I absolutely loved it. I am thrilled to see Monsoon, Muraco, Danny Davis, Chyna, Gerald Brisco, Valentine and several other classic wrestlers making their way into the Elite Squad lineup. While there are some unanswered questions I have about the updated status of Titus O’Neill and Wendi Richter (which hopefully is answered in the Q&A with Bill) I was absolutely pleased with what Mattel has to offer. I for one don’t like to be overloaded with new upcoming figures that technically aren’t a guarantee that they will come out. For the collectors who think Mattel didn’t show enough you seem to forget that Bill does 3-4 quarterly showings of new product a year at Toy Fair, Las Vegas toy show, SDCC and RSF. Right now SDCC showed us 3 months of upcoming product and RSF is next in October which most likely show finished figures of what we saw at SDCC and what will be available after those finished product

Anyone attending able to ask about Wendi Richter? I was hoping to see her on display in the hopes she’ll be released, but no luck. I hope Sweaty Bill can figure out where he can put Wendi Richter in a future line. Been wanting her since the proto was shown almost 2 years ago at RSF. I’d pay the price if RSC could get her as an exclusive. This is where I do wish Mattel had rights to make more Hulk Hogan figs as it would be a perfect fit to do a Rock n Wrestling themed 2pk with both of them. Hell, throw in a Andre in a suit inspired by the cartoon and I’m all over it LOL 😂

Monsoon, Blassie, Muraco, Brisco, Valentine.... no complaints here about SDCC2019. And Danny Davis! I can't wait to see a dangerous Danny Davis custom! I got the attire from Ralph’s figure clothing a few years back for a JAKKS fixup DDD that I did. I don’t care that we didn’t see any Hogan’s I am super happy we get several key 80s and 90s superstars that can now be crossed off the checklist
