Fantastic ring . Really really big. But all in all its exactly what I've been wanting since I started collecting mattels in late 2011. I missed the original ESR so the wicked cool one was an instant pre order for me and it did not fail to deliver!
PS. They have the BEST customer service. If anything goes wrong with the ring (doubtful) they'll help you out no questions asked.

In comparison, the ASR and ESR are not much different besides the ropes and ring aprons. However, the ropes are a bit more loose on the ASR than the ESR and the clips could become a hassle at times. It is also quite large, 22x22.
But overall, it is one hell of a collector's item and surely would accommodate your figures nicely.

It's massive. The ring itself I feel is a tad too big n out of scale. I kinda wish the ropes were tighter too. 6/10

But they are sending me one out of the kindness of their hearts. And did the same when my aprons broke. Great company.

Love it! My only problem was loose ropes and the top of one turnbuckle was missing.!thet shipped me a new turnbuckle post immediately, and I replaced the ropes for $1.99 at Walmart so I'm happy with it. Can't wait for the cage/accessory packs!!!

Just explain you saw that they fixed the flawed mechanism. And request a new one. Not sure if they'll send them out like candy. But it's worth a try.

I was skeptical of it... Thought it was just way too big. But I got some birthday money this year and decided to splurge. It's every bit as big as I worried it was but the detail and sturdiness of it is awesome. Needs another pair of steps though.

I have the new buckles and S clips from it and I was a bit disappointed that you couldn't adjust them like the original ones. I am thinking about buying the superstore ring instead or better yet making my own this summer.

Can't wait for the cage/accessory packs!!! What did you buy exactly as a rope replacement ? I'm taking a Walmart trip tomorrow. It's called Bungee Cord. It's in the arts and crafts section. There's a section that has tons of options of both bungee and parachute cord. Do not buy parachute cord as they aren't elastic... The bungee cord works great! Cut it to size, tie the knot and hide it under the pads. I've found blue, black, red, pink. I've yet to find white though :/

So you bought yours at retail? I bought the "new one" through RSC with the new logo and smackdown skirt. It included the tag ropes but no canvas straps, I was a bit disappointed in that but so far the ring is holding up great! Until the clips become loose...

I picked up black ones for my ASR. Will likely grab a set of red, and if I can find white that would be dope, I'd love to do the red/white/blue ropes These are much thicker than the ASR ropes by the way. You have to really pull hard to get them into the hooks that attach to the ring posts. So be patient when you get the that point..

I thought RSC was the only way to get the smackdown skirts? I seen one at TRU with them.
