Thank you for the summary! Much appreciated! When will we see more NXT talent in the elite line? It’s going to continue. Pushing for 1 NXT talent in each elite wave. Will we see bigger guys made in Ultimate form? Yes. Dusty, Vader Yokozuna etc. already being made. What’s the status of Macho Man? No update. Can we see more box sets like the LWO? If talent is available and it makes sense, yes. Current status on women’s wrestling figures? Steve said we’re probably getting the most WWE women wrestling figures of all time right now. Some waves will have more than one female, some won’t. Just depends. What’s the holdup with the Steiner brothers? No holdup, Bill said trying to find the right time to put them in the line. Also trying to create the right parts for those figures so they’re accurate. Assures us they will be amazing once they are ready. Will we get more Ultimate scale rings? Steve hinted that the trend has been one new Ultimate ring a year. Can you talk a little bit more about the Vault line? It’s an exciting line that will continue, same amount of figures per year. Maybe after series 2 they will be more spaced out. Any chance for accessory packs for the Ultimate rings? Still not enough Ultimate rings out to justify accessories for these rings. Will Pharaoh (Cody’s dog) be getting his own figure? Bill said a lot more likely now than a month ago.

They'll probably switch to "Back-Order 1" status in a bit, and we'll get them after a second batch arrives. At least, I hope so. I waited too long too! I totally spaced on the Outsiders! Whoops. I haven’t ordered from RSC in a bit. Do they have a history of restocking exclusives when they actually get them in hand, or do I need to track down Denim Dan Hall and Look-at-the-Adjective Nash?

Yep! I wasn't gonna get UT, but I couldn't resist the "early bird special" pricing. Undertaker is online too.......at $23! Might as well!!!!

Is it me or did these go up for preorder a little earlier than expected? I thought it was supposed to be 9AM Central?

Same issue, two different browsers. Is anyone else having an impossible time getting past the captcha? I've submitted this no less than 10 times and it keeps accepting it and asking me to do it again

I just got this guy in hand and...I dunno. I think I may have to return it. Summerslam 1991 is my favorite event ever but the color is so far off I just can't see keeping it on my shelf.
A lot of these dudes looked like a roast turkey but this one is more like a chocolate bar.

I don't need another trunks version, but I'd buy an El Matador in a heartbeat. Very "toyetic" as they say.

Pretty much every Walmart exclusive, especially RA series 4. Might as well start lining up the Monday Night Wars for a future Greatest Hits series now!

Mr. T, because stupid Wal-Mart canceled my stupid order and I needed that Superstars figure so I had to pay stupid jacked-up aftermarket prices. Alternatively, it would be Eric Bischoff since he's even more expensive on the secondary market, but I refuse to pay through the nose for him.
Whining aside, it'd be Shawn Michaels and Cody Rhodes.

Hi Steve! Question about Mr. T in series 143. In the CG renders, it appears that the chase long-sleeved Mr. T figure has different parts than the regular short-sleeved version. Is this correct? In the past, I think variants had been restricted to deco only, so does this mean other chase variants (maybe even in the Legends line) could have different parts as well?

Good to see Walmart getting some competition for the "we love cancelling your orders" championship belt.

Like everybody else has been saying: yes, but not if Walmart is involved!

You could definitely pass it off as Cody! Duplico is an actual MOTU figure though. First things first, is that a Cody Rhodes Masters figure I see a few posts above? lol if it is, I never knew that existed. To the guy with the long post, thanks for sharing. That does answer a lot of questions. Like you I just wont pay scalper prices. I will wait them out. In the meantime I've just restarted my Legends line collection again. so I may never even go back to superstars if the wait continues to be this long. Now if I walk in next week and see series 4 and 5 on the shelves, that might pull me back in.

Yep. I relate to this 100%. So far so good on my order, but I'm not holding my breath. The Monday Night Wars line is something I'm ridiculously excited for. If Walmart f's this up (they will) I will be really pissed. I NEVER find figures I want in store at any of my local Walmarts, so I have to rely on preorders.

For sure. That's why this is so weird; Ultimate 18 Orton is already shipping; you'd think Ultimate 18 Savage would be manufactured and shipping now as well. Makes me wonder if there was some horrible manufacturing defect, like they accidentally produced Savage with the Sin Cara melting dong shirt tattooed on his chest or something... Plus they are still selling Macho Man t-shirts on WWEShop as of today. Even if he’s no longer under a deal, any merch that has already been produced and released can still be sold. They wouldn’t pull anything unless it’s a Hogan scenario.

Glad the $0 charges have (mostly) been reversed. Now we can look forward to just getting our Walmart orders cancelled like normal!
