The messed up part is that I find the table to be the best part and I already have 2 Jakks tables but more can't hurt.
Sorry Mattel... but your tables suck.
$29.99 seems a bit steep but there are a few good accessories.
I think this set would be better if it had included arena essentials like commentator table and/or headsets, or crowd barricades it would be better.
Not a bad set otherwise.

Not a bad idea. Some may buy this, but if the sales aren't great don't give up on the idea. I'd love to see you guys release two Ringside Exclusive Mattel belt packs. Maybe one for the current roster & one for the Legends roster?

As much as I hate Jakks, I actually kind of like this. If Mattel ever made one of these, then I will more than likely buy 2.

It's an easy pass for me just because I have never been a fan of the weapon accesorie. Personally have never been a fan of the "hardcore" style of wrestling either, so that is probably why. Just don't care to see people getting beat up with the strangest weapon you can think of.

I have everything aside from the rolling thing so a easy pass.

Pretty cool assortment. Only items I'm not too fond of are the bent pipe, WWII infantry stretcher, tombstone and the road block/barricade. Love that the ladder has painted steps. I'm hoping the gurney gets re-released one day.

My first thought was "why is this in the Mattel board?".
It's a great idea......that should have been done years ago. Why neither Jakks or Mattel has thought to do this in so long is beyond me. Price be damned, it's better than tracking down some random Elite figure I don't want just to get a laddre.

All the people saying that they are not buying this just because it isn't made by Mattel sound like such idiots because let's face it, what is the difference in a Mattel table and a Jakks Table for example? None, if anything you should all be grateful for getting such a large set of accessories from Jakks for a decent price because lets face it, if Mattel made this and it didn't sell millions of sets in the first few days of release, they would probably pull it from production never to be seen again...
My point is that people saying "I liked this at first, but then I found out it wasn't made by Mattel so I don't like it now" just sounds just plain stupid and very disrespectful towards the manufacturers.... This is just my honest opinion, I personally think this is a great set even if it does come with a few lackluster items (Steel Pipe, cookie tray etc) But it is a steal considering how much things like ladders and tables go for on eBay currently. And I cannot wait to get this.
Although reading though the thread again, it does seem to be a select few that said those kind f things about it.
Once again, just my honest opinion.

$29.99 seems a bit steep but there are a few good accessories. It's $1.35 per accessory if you use the WFIGS discount code!

This is a cool idea. They literally have over a decade's worth of accessories they can draw back to for this. Some of these have been around as long as BCA, but a lot of them debuted in TTL. They included some more sought after ones like the camera, barbed wire board, etc. Neat stuff.
I wish they'd airbrush their tables like they used to early on in TTL. I have 2-3 tables with the dark wood effect, and they look so much better.
I'd like to see Mattel shift gears to something like this with RSC. I'd love to get a metallic silver ladder one of these days, but it's probably too costly to do in Elite. It'd be cool if they had $10 sets on that included that latter, a deluxe table, and shiny "dentable" folding chair. Perhaps they could eventually do ringskirts and stuff once they make a bigger ring (not the Elite one, but one bigger than the normal one at retail).

good for folks who have just started collecting. Price seems a bit much. It's only $1.35 per accessory with the WFIGS discount code!

Just seems dated. Nothing really new. Just goes to show how little effort Jakks has put out for their TNA line IMO.

I'm guessing they posted this on the Mattel board to gauge the reaction to try to get Mattel to make their own.

As an old school hardcore Jakks collector I have 10-15 of nearly everything there so I have no need, BUT if Mattel was to make an elite BELTS pack I would be all over multiple sets

These are all rehash accys of the old jakks line. I'd prefer arena essentials or Mattel built accys NEW to collectors or reimagined. Would love a new camera crew set, Titles, arena items. But that's just me.
