I must say I was dreading the fact I ordered the Mattel ring when everyone compared it to those crappy entry level rings Jakks kept putting out. However once I opened it I was over joyed. You don't have to tie any tricky ropes to get this ring to bounce because it comes out of the box ready to go. And from my own in ring experience it felt and almost sounded like a lot of rings I have taken my bumps on. Not to say any rings you see on TV are a bouncey bounce but they are constructed of mainly 2 x 4's and one big spring in the middle. Also since the turnbuckles are better placed then most entry level Jakks rings that also added to the excitement. Then also when I took it out of the box the ropes were already attached to one of the turnbuckles so I didn't have to tie it and have those ugly knots I normally get. I mean this ring is a far cry from my own Real Scale Ring but it's still a fun ring if you don't feel like taking out that big monster. If anyone wants me to upload pics let me know.

Could you maybe take some pics of one of these rings? I haven't seen them out of the box yet.

A ring has a steel frame then it has 2 x 4's placed down Some choose to put a small layer of a protective layer most of the promotions I went to used a small layer of foam Then the mat which is honestly just a piece of canvas is laid out and you have your ring. If there were "steel flex beams" we would break out backs taking bumps. Don't be such a mark. |

It looks great but I only have room for my Jakks Real Scale ring. I will stay with that when I start buying the Mattel Figures.

I'm happy with it for the price. I'd like to have cloth aprons instead of the stickers, but then again its $15.
