Now that the dust has settled a bit, and I've had some time to take in all of the greatness, here are my personal thoughts on Mattels SDCC presence:
This is, by far, the best that Mattel has done thus far, and I think it's going to be difficult to top this in the years to come. I don't care what anyone says; theses guys know what they're doing, and they truly care about their customers. That being said...
Hulk Hogan is easily my favorite. I'll admit, while I was confident of mattels ability, I didn't expect it to look as good as it does. This thing is literally perfect.
Doink is my next favorite, and was tied with Hogan on my top "wish list". They captured Bourne exactly as he looked, and they even got a new torso mold. Hell, even the chest hair is peeking out of the top if this costume! Throwing in three wigs for different looks, and the confetti bucket...incredible.
Razor and sting were both huge surprises, and I personally think razors head has an uncanny likeness. Can't wait to see all the awesome stuff they'll come with. Still a bummer though if we have to wait a full year for Sting...that's torture.
Some small notes...I'm loving that corporate Kane, especially the head. Luger's scan looks better and better every time I see it, and I can't wait for LOD.
Lastly, that WM 30 hulk hogan looks epic. If you look at the really close up pic, you can see that the bandana is definitely removable. You can see the gap between the bandana and his head...definitely two separate pieces. Just a good sign of things to come; I always hated when it was sculpted on
Overall, just so much great product. Thank you Mattel!!

I think, SDCC was great this year! So glad to see figures of Hogan and Sting, but also Doink, Razor and so many others! Looking Forward to them!
Great Job, Mattel!!

I hope this year, the video of the Q&A doesn't take too long to be released. And hope they don't do that crappy editing again and post a lot of videos of question by question... We want the real deal the full video.

Basic Hogan in street clothes looks pretty good also. Maybe that'll get released sooner? Hope we see some basic Stings also.

That's the last thing we are showing Hope you liked what you saw! Absolutely astounded by the work you guys have put in. You guys have pulled off the greatest wrestling action figure line ever (IMO). Never before has their been so many a-listers in one continuous, in scale, articulated action figure line. I think we can appreciated the amount of work & effort that has been put into that Sting. The tooling & new molds for the boots, legs & torso are unreal. The face & even the hair make this figure truly definitive. And to whomever is the WCW mark in the team, i salute you, keep it up lol

My only complaints are that I wish wrestlemania bray came with his jacket and that the fur was molded on to Bryan's boots. I'd have preferred Hollywood rock to have the jeans mold for his legs instead of removable pants that way they could have included a vest and sunglasses. And with out the big belt buckle it's impossible to perfectly capture the persona.

I'm pretty sure it took that long because they spent time splitting the interview into one question per video until everyone complained and they decided to just upload it in its entirety.

They were a lot faster in getting content up this year, so hopefully the interview will go up faster as well.
