He probebly was an bunghole. Theres no need to be like that even if he did have a long day...Still get his figure though.

Its a shame to hear hes a jerk. You should always be cordial to your fans. Without them you are nothing.

Im not mad or anything because we all have bad days. For all I know hes probably a cool guy, but not today.

Great news about the completed prototype. I imagine that this new scan will be for an elite figure.

Thanks for sharing. That's pretty cool you're so close to Mattel.
Glad to hear there is already a proto.

I think he was just having a long day. I wrote him a letter about 2 months ago and he was nice enough to write me a letter back with an autograph, it came off as really nice. My guess is he was just tired of sitting there for a couple hours complete still doing scans and rescans just got to him.

I met him twice over the ppv weekend. Both times he was amazingly nice, being the 4th and 5th time meeting him. Signed for me each time.

That's a cool story. I once saw Harvey Whippleman buying Wendys hamburgers for the guys in the back before a Raw show (early Attitude era) and Stevie Richards at GameStop (right after he cut his hair). Those were my brushes with Wrestling greatness. Is Mattel's store loaded with basic 11, elite 10, Legends 6, series 10 2 packs? ;D

All they have is a bunch of old elite from there store( TONS of Christians) and basic Reys and some TLC. TONS of rumblers. The store is really small, and the wwe stuff is limited. Once in a while youll find some good stuff but not often. Its cool that I work so close to them, but the selection sucks.

I've heard bad stories about the guy so this doesn't surprise me, but I'm not a person that expects every famous person to be nice and care about fans. Never stopped me from liking CM Punk. The thing here that excites me is you live across from Mattel HQ and get discounts. Need a roommate by any chance?

i was at a fleamarket with my mommy in 1995 maybe 1994 .. after hours of shopping, we were waiting for an elevator to go to the 2nd floor to eat,...when the door pop opened, we had to wait till the people got out... it was Jim the Anvil Neidhart , Rick the Model Martel, and Brutus the Barber Beefcake.
wow, i know right!.. they were super nice, but my dumb ass lil kid mind used the time to simply say.. " is Hulk Hogan Here With You?!!! "
