Is this a separate line to the retro line they're already in the middle of? Would assume so, since they're not the same scale/style. I think all they've shown is that picture, so I guess we'll find out.

They’re supposed to be Kenner/ReAction sized, so like 3.75”.

Slick looks good enough to me. Hopefully we get Power & Glory in wave 3 also. Some pretty big gap-fillers.

I'd be happy if some company made Galoob-style figures now (not that one company that makes like 20 pieces of each figure). They're simpler to make than Hasbro-style figures, and more appealing than Bend 'Ems to me.

No need for ddp to have 2 sets of arms. If toybiz can get away with diamond cutter hands than so can a collectible thats not really going to be played with I'm with you. I think the second set of arms skews too far away from the "retro" feel. I know it might be a dumb thing to take issue with, but I think all of us want some degree of "retro" feel with these. If I wanted figures with swappable parts, I'd buy Mattel Ultimates.

Really curious to see how Al Snow turns out. The prototype looked tall, but it's hard to tell proper size comparison with those. I'll be sad if he's too tall, like Switchblade. On wrestling Traders Instagram Al Snow is same height as Hasbro Big Boss Man, hope that is of use?? Hadn't seen that post, so that's good news! Do you have a link?

Literally how can anyone take them seriously or credibly? I don't expect them to crap on their business partner too much. They're creating content to sell their own merch and hype their own projects. They call their fans Major Marks for a reason.

Bundle 631 Andre 857 Raven 1372 Bundy 669 Brody 618 Sullivan 256 I can honestly say I'm in no way shocked the the Kevin Sullivan isn't doing as well as the rest. Agreed. I called out the appeal of the Sullivan figure back in August and received some pushback that I was wrong (not from you). So there we have it. Also predicted Raven would be top seller, since Sabu was last time. Honestly, I'd buy all ECW wave from Zombie: Pillman, Mikey, Bill Alfonso, Mike Awesome, Masato Tanaka, Roadkill.

Not sure im a fan of them already branching off into a subset so soon. The market is so saturated with hasbro styles and now the remco style is following suit. I think these companies especially the small ones should just focus on one scale and make it successful before having subsets. The skeptic in me makes me think they tried the established "Elite" scale Ultra line to "test the waters" and will now pivot to Remco-style as their main line.

How will you choose to display them? Probably series order, and I have risers for the detolf as well. Series order is how I display them as well. I use nail polish stands for risers. http://instagram.com/p/CTi2cJ9IL6p

If the figures are truly supposed to fit in with Hasbro, then the likenesses should be soft =D

I'd prefer Raven have a molded jacket and fused shoulders like Texas Tornado/Tatanka, but whatever.

Diana Hart Smith, really though? Scraping the bottom barrel now are they not for names to make. I think it's a nice idea for collectors who want to go deep, but also not a big deal for folks who want to skip it. I want more non-wrestling characters, since Hasbro never made any. Refs, managers, announcers, etc. And Diana is from a key match, so that's cool.
