I predict half the threads on this board will be locked by 3 EST…which is a shame, because some of them contain helpful information and I’m sure it will be here that we figure out when Legends 12 go live from one of them) but WFIGS is gonna WFig and be a cesspool of hate, misery. and whining about plastic as always is. Haha

Wasnt rvd confirmed for elite 90 ?? If so maybe zombie sailor is not an exclusive deal. Like retros are most statues Zombie isn't signing exclusive deals with people. He never was. It's a licensing deal. They agree to let him make the figure, he does a pre-order, and then he pays them the percentage owed on the sales. That's it. No other terms.

Imagine getting antsy or angry you can't get a freakin' Jeff Hardy figure, lol. Literally one of the most popular wrestlers of the last 20 years. No ing clue why anyone would want to buy him. Good one...

Another Doink doesn’t move the needle for me, but I’ll take him for “free.” I love the skirts, though. Hopefully we can get them both unlocked. I was expecting three tiers. Maybe if we get the other two they will announce one more.

Man... we got Fake Diesel in E16, the Battle Pack with Shawn, as a Network Spotlight, AND as a Retro. How about we stick with real Kevin Nash Diesel this time around.

War Games Adam Cole BAYBAY!!!
Wolfpac Luger and Ultimate Razor would be extremely welcomed, too. Cole is on the panel, though. 99% chance we see camo Cole, and he wasn't on that leaked order sheet. Makes sense in this spot.

Big WCW fan from 97 through death bed. Most of these guys are really big wants for me. Sean O'Haire is a top 10 figure want in general. Never had a figure, and if you were watching 00-01 WCW, you know he was going to have a rocket strapped to his back. He was the star of the Thrillers, a freak athlete, and just had magnetic charisma. So any list with Sean O'Haire on it and I'm going to pick him. My other two would be Vampiro, and then K-Dog so we can finish our Wolfpac, assuming we ever do get the Luger.
Kidman, Lance Storm, Sandman and Mike Awesome are all right there, as well. Kanyon, Norman Smiley and Cat not too far behind them. La Parka would be incredible but I've sort of written him off with the way his licensing has gone with AAA, unfortunately. Again though, this is largely my wheelhouse and I want lots of those figures. Not on your list but Franchise Shane Douglas is also a no brainer for this group and a huge want for me.

I was able to grab a Sarge and the Jurassic Park set. Thought it was a smooth process. Was queued for a few minutes but was able to get through and checkout.

Jingle All the Way, Christmas Vacation, and Home Alone are my trinity. Die Hard and Gremlins probably rounds out my must watch top 5. Love Actually is one of my wife's favorite movies ever. So we watch that every year.
My kids love Christmas. My daughter watches that Mickey Twice Upon a Christmas movie on Disney+ like everyday right now. My son loves the Home Alone and Santa Clause movies. So we watch all of those throughout the year. Polar Express, too, and they both love a Nightmare Before Christmas.
There are no rules in our household with this stuff. I love Halloween and Christmas, and both could alternate months all year round as far as I'm concerned.

I thought Part 2 was by far the best. I did like that they didn't spend the entire time in 1666 of part 3. It was a nice twist but the least interesting portion of the three movies for me. I do wish Maya Hawke was in it for more than a hiccup. But overall, really enjoyable. I wasn't sure I was going to watch Part 2 after Part 1. It was an ok start, but it was a "might as well see what happens next" kind of thing for me. I really enjoyed part 2 and was happy with where they went when we got back to 94 in part 3.
Nitpicky stuff, there didn't seem to be a ton of attention being paid to time period accuracy of the 90s. The other two periods were easy settings to naturally look more time and place but with the 90s the setting and dialogue felt off, too modern. There was some satire to it, which I appreciate it, but that would be my biggest criticism. Props to the mall setting. It was a safe play and it worked. Still, for something I had no expectation for and all dropped largely at once, really fun. Glad I watched it.
I won't be shocked to see Emily Rudd start showing up in a ton of stuff. I thought her and Madeira were the clear standouts.

It's possible HBK is Mania 22 gear and the BAF Vince goes with him.

Am I tripping or did Cena have a title? I thought he did as well. Either that or it’s just Mandela effect because he was champion at the actual event. If it’s going to be that rough looking belt that is coming with Jeff Hardy then I guess I’m not too disappointed if we don’t get it.

I totally, 100%, get why people would groan at the Goon, but I love it. It’s New Gen, I’m a huge hockey fan, and it’s hilarious. Plus, he’s red and black and Mattel loves that sh*t. Definite buy for me.
That said, I concur with the “who the hell signed the Goon to a Legends deal” sentiment. We have major holes in this line, guys from WCW and ECW a plenty that would be incredible, and we’re getting the Goon. The first time in the line guys are just so limited and, of all guys, we’re getting Goon? Like wtf.

Anyone else think Diesel's face looks too young? He looks early-mid 20's despite being in his mid-late 30's at the time. And the face just looks kinda...generic. Or plain. Especially compared to L12. Go look at the February 95 WWF magazine. It looks like that exact era of Nash to me. It’s also a hand painted proto. So it’s going to look more detailed if it goes into production with TFX.

Just had to approve another delay for DDP and Brutus. I can’t get 1ea. but scalpers are getting their multi-orders processed. Something is seriously wrong with this So because people on here ordered a couple it automatically makes them a scalper? 10 of one and 5 of the other is more than a couple.

Piper’s Pit is a really big want. I thought for sure we were getting it after Heartbreak Hotel. I’m guessing Mattel won’t, but I think it would sell crazy well if they did Piper and Snuka. Beyond that, I really want the In Your House entrance. Do In Your House 6 Shawn Michaels, the plants, maybe a carpet and guardrails, and then the ring skirt and turnbuckle pads. Dream stuff. Pipers Pit seems like an easy RSC exclusive. They’ve been including backdrops with the last few exclusives anyway. Just include Piper with a couple chairs, a table, and a coconut. He’s low deco and has reusable accessories. Should be cheap to produce. Yeah that’s why I thought we’d get it in one of the BAF waves. Seems easy.

I wonder if they do a mass release on him in normal packaging? Seems like they could. Definitely trying to get him, though. Pretty awesome.
