Hi All,
I just got a message from Ringside that William Regal has been removed from Elite 8. God, will I ever get my Elite Regal!?!

Bourne NEEDS to stay in.
If Regal has been removed, I wonder who will replace him? I guess we may find out at Ringside Fest.

I bet they couldn't fit his robe into that series budget so they had to cut him.

That is a bummer. Hopefully we'll get him in Elite 9.

He won't be replaced I don't think, because I was refunded his cost on my preorder  |

I think they could replace him. The refund is probobly if you dont want the replacement figure.

Sucks he was released but his figure would warm pegs for eons. All my stores have at least 15 of his Basic 4 figure still on pegs. Hope they replace him with some one good.

That sucks. Glad I started making my own the other day with spare parts from his Basic figure and an extra Elite Cody body. I doubt he'll be replaced. Didn't Trevor just make a comment the other day about the Hart Dynasty being short packed (no smith and 1 tyson in the first shipment and then flipped in the next shipment) he said they were making them cases of 8 with more of the popular guys? So I'd guess he was dropped for a more popular wrestler which sucks because I think Regal was the only one I wanted from Series 8

This may have something to do with Mattel's decision to start doing mixed/unbalanced(what ever you call it) Elite cases. If Regal is going to be the "short packed" figures (which he should be) maybe RS doesn't know how many they will be getting and don't want to risk disappointed their customers by not being able to fill an order.
OR and I hope -
They decided to give Undertaker his hooded entrance coat and it ate up all the budget for series.

Strange things are a foot at the Circle K!
I'm not crazy about the short packing idea. Hopefully we still get a Regal at some point.

Son of a c@ck!!!!!!
This is the second time they did this to me. I was looking forward to his Elite more than anyone else forthcoming. I was never keen on his basic head and I wanted the robe. Mattel, I luv ya, but you are really pissing me off with this Elite Regal crap. What is the f#cking problem???

His Basic 4 figure is warming the shelves at every Walmart around here. Doesn't really bother me that he won't be in Elite 8 as I had no plans to buy him. The only Regal I would ever buy is if they did a Legends Blue Bloods version of him. |

God dammit. I have B4 Regal, but only because his Elite 6/7 disappeared. And then he was announced officially for Elite 8. And now it's gone, too, apparently. His robe would be really extravagant to produce, so I hope maybe it's just pushed back for a different series.

hopefully he finally comes in Elite 9, maybe that they changed elites to an 8 figure its easier to make the breakdown because the way the broke down 7 is dumb with the hart dynasty.
