It's strange how many people are saying they'd prefer Razor wasn't in purple - to me, it's his most iconic colour... I was really pleased. It's weird seeing Sting at a WWE event with a WWE action figure coming out talking about wrestling a WWE match.. It's only weird because I find myself not caring at all. that is very weird... The HBK looks like it may be a 96-97 one. Idk ...I thought that - but Taker is a recent short-haired one? Hmmm...

And it's definitely an old school Hbk cause he has hair ?

This was really hard to do because of the makeup, so it turned out meh, but anyways, here's Lana Looks incredible! You sell yourself short, my friend. I'm really glad Lana's getting a figure. She was a great surprise.

I love how people are peddling out release dates all based on assumptions. I find it highly unlikely that Sting won't be out till Summerslam Next year, regardless of the graphic that popped up on screen. If im wrong i'll hold my hands up.
Any confirmation on who Ringside have interviewed (if any)?
Another point to make, this is one hell of a 97/98 WCW roster we're building. We've got NWO Nash, Savage & the Giant. We have Flair, Sting, DDP, Hennig & Rey (and any i've missed out), we even have DM Bret Hart in an attire he wore in WCW. It is great as well knowing we will have Hollywood Hogan & Hall (Luger too) in the years ahead. Can you imagine if Goldberg signs over the coming years?
I think old school NWA fans will have their day too, because if they release JYD as a flashback, anythings possible. Surfer Sting, Windham, Luger, Tully/Arn, Dusty, Flair & Magnum would look fantastic on a shelf together.
To think i was starting to fall out of love with figure collecting? Absolutely loving this!!!

Has any clever so-and-so made a list of all the figures shown and sorted them into possible sets/series? (Basic, Elite, Battlepacks, exclusives etc.)

Lol, when the E29 preorders arrived some weeks ago, one of the members here joked that he would put Andre's new wig on all the figures in his collection. He even showed a pic of CM Punk wearing it. Apparently this guy has close friends over at Mattel because we are now getting the same wig piece in green and two additional new wigs with Doink

My guess is Rocky Mavia is a Defining Moments figure that will come out around Survivor Series. Makes too much sense.
I doubt it'l be a Target exclusive though. That makes no sense.

i just saw the panel from yesterday on ringside's site and michael cole says in the end that the sdcc exclusive is a slam city figure, so Rocky Maivia is going to be in some other release. wrestlingfigs.com/inner2.php?id=26016&page_id=1

The HBK in the Battlepack is gonna be from 97 and the Taker is from 2014. This one and the Big Show/Andre are fantasy matchups. Also Hogan, Razor and Sting are indeed spaced out throughout 2015 or thats the plan anyway. There will be 4 DM's released next year. Hogan, Razor, Sting and somebody else.

I'm still hyperventilating about missing out on that Rocky if it indeed is an SDCC exclusive.

Any confirmation on who Ringside have interviewed (if any)? Watch the panel video, hold your hands up and stop peddling the notion that Sting wrestled at SummerSlam '97 (and Hogan wrestled at a secret Rumble in his WM3 outfit... And Razor wrestled at a secret WrestleMania in purple...).

Has any clever so-and-so made a list of all the figures shown and sorted them into possible sets/series? (Basic, Elite, Battlepacks, exclusives etc.) We don't know them yet, outside of the Defining Moments. Particularly the grayscale figures aren't in any order, the basics are just the four that Bill MDT thought were most interesting. As an assumption though, two-packs 32 is HHH/Bryan, Outlaws and Usos. Last year, the flashbacks they showed all formed Elite 23-27 in order I think, so I guess we can assume that Batista, Cesaro and Roman are in Elite 33 with at least two of those flashbacks, probably JYD and X-Pac.

This will be the first time since the Hasbro days that we've had Hogan, Savage, & Warrior together in the same line. And first time since the Galoob days I've had Luger, Flair, & Sting together in the same line. We did get Luger, Flair & Sting in the OSFTM lines and Toy Biz...Unless you skipped those I did have a Sting & Jericho, but skipped everyone else. They weren't very good IMO.
