Awesome figure. Too bad they apparently don't want hardly anyone to own it.

Awesome looking figure. If one pops up on the bay for a reasonable price, I am for sure buying it.

This is one of those figures that you either hope mattel makes a bunch of, or the factory workers make a crap ton and sell them on eBay. Damn, I'd LOVE to get this, but not for $2,000.00, that's absolutely ridiculous. I'd pay $100 for it max

I wonder what ring gear it has. Probably red, black & white.

Why did Warrior put it in his contract that he got x amount of exclusive figures of himself to sell? He did it with Jakks too.

Mattel is obligated to make these and then Warrior would make some more side money on these ultra-collectible figures. I'm assuming this final figure is going to benefit his family. If all twenty of these sell for $2000 bucks, well, $40,000 is nothing to scoff at. And Mattel will spend that because Warrior is too valuable a commodity to not adhere to his wishes.

Team Warrior said it was 1 of 15 not 1 of 20. Sucks retail will never see this

As much as I liked Warrior that is not a figure I would want to own.

Its not a bad looking figure but clearly not worth the price. There will be some "defects" that pop up eventually just like the USA Warrior and the Granite Warrior

yeh...the one on ebay...is just someone thats going to buy one off the official warrior store, and upmark it a couple hundred.
We've known about this figure since last summer. There was a facebook announcement about it, that there would be a final exclusive based on his look from the WWE2k14 commercial.
This confirms that the granite lightning figure was cancelled....forever ever

hopefully they make one using same head scan but in HOF Attire. Maybe a Target/Amazon/ToysRUs exclusive Now that the head exists, I don't think it's crazy at all to expect some kind of final appearance version of him. I know Mattel made the honoring vs profiting comment right when he passed away but I think we've moved past that time frame where the lines would be blurred over it. I could see a Battle Pack with a 90's Warrior and then a suited older Warrior. I'm sure people want the full on final Raw look with the coat over the suit but I'm not sure how realistic that would be to do. Maybe they could budget it as a Flashback but it seems like it would be expensive to do the coat. Either way, this was really cool to see. We've know about this for awhile, so I've known for awhile I wasn't owning one but it's still a great figure. I'm personally glad this kind of thing is over. I respect Warrior for leveraging his popularity against the toy companies but as a collector, I want the option to buy every Warrior Mattel makes.

I don't need the figure to be in this attire exactly, I just want a short haired old man Warrior as a final tribute on a larger scale release. They have the heads an right there, so there's no excuse not to. If any good comes from this exclusive, it will be showing MattelDesignTeam that there's a serious interest in releasing this version of Warrior on a larger scale. His final appearance outfit on Raw would probably be more fitting as a tribute figure. Haven't we already been told that a Final Appearance on RAW Warrior will not happen?
