well after enduring Noelle's cringe-worthy voice to hear Bill answer mediocre questions, I'd like to thank ZDB and AlexWestCollects for asking Bill some good questions on behalf of the board. True these guys actually asked questions that we care about as they have a passion for it. Who the heck would ask if there would be more Stings? !! Seriously? My question had 14 likes one of the highest totals and wasn't asked.

I appreciate people's interest in the WCW belt issue but this is all guesswork. We know Mattel don't have the rights to make them, but what we most certainly don't know is why they apparently refuse to even consider licensing them (since they haven't even asked the belt makers about the possibility!). Every time the WCW belts question has been asked to Mattel, the answer is always vague and evasive, with a slight undertone of being irritated that people keep asking for them. WCW belts are demanded and needed, period. And I encourage all true WCW fans to keep asking Mattel for WCW belts until they find a way to make it happen. WCW's rich title history deserves to be represented in figure form and the problems with making them need to be solved, not ignored. Why do they need a reason not to do it? Their legends line where they signed a bunch of outside contracts was a total failure. They've chosen not to do it anymore. What more reason do they need for not doing it besides that they don't find it financially viable?

I think Noelle made Bill nervous lol. I hate how they always choose the most simplistic questions to ask Bill. I'm not going to participate in their next q & a when they choose the same questions. How did they not address the lack of RVDs???

Just spent the past hour catching up on this thread. So many flashbacks. While I'm waiting, it's time to start working on my display space! Usually I am picking out the figures I want. This time I had to look for the figures to pass on and there weren't too many.

Insulted bill away and now going to insult the q&a's away. Of course only response from ringside is "what questions would you ask?", well my question for them is how do they decide what questions to ask? By likes, drawn from a hat, what?

The one thing about the WCW belts that I find perplexing is that WWE Shop sells WCW replica belts(currently just the tag belts). Why doesn't, or why can't WWE make, that deal extent to toys as well?
Until I see Mattel produce a toy with the WCW logo on it, I'm going to believe that WWE will not allow them to.

I don't even know why I bother watching the Q&A's anymore. Its answers to stuff that anyone with half a brain could figure out for themselves. I mean seriously who was deathly afraid that more stings weren't coming? Or how about asking the same questions that we've already had answered before like Ryback's torso mold and if the Legend's line is returning. Or how about a sking questions about things that were already revealed to be true at the event like the Bunny or Elite combo packs.Ill just go ahead and chalk that up to 9 minutes of my life i'll never get back. This kind of pissed me off. I get that shes probably not a collector but come on. If you're going to do the job the least you can do is know what you are talking about/asking.

Seriously. I found out a crap ton more than RSC did: New Day Elites confirmed WCW title belts cannot be made because they lack the rights to the belts Bill does not know how basic 44 and 55 Kanes ended up half Elite, half basicBunny is being released because too much time, effort, and money was spent on his figure Bill says basic 58 will not be released until February-March 2016 was supposed to be the year of the NWO figures but a certain someone got themself in trouble Enzo and Cass and Vaudevillains are "very likely" And more that I can't remember That's the kind of info I find most interesting. basic 55 isn't half elite tho

My WCW area looks weird without the real WCW belts. It'd be fine if Toybiz made any, but they only made the World Title a few times.

Good I'd rather they just did away with the whole thing if they're going to insult our intelligence in the first place, pretending that they're going to ask our questions and get some good answers.

Is M$M a new body sculpt? Hope it looks good with the EG head. never got the eg as back then i didnt buy basics and figured an elite was coming. but plan on putting the basic head on the hof body. Heck yes.... I plan on having about 10-12 different figures after I do some swaps of the SS basic/EG heads and some suited variations. I've been dying for this figure. The only thing I dislike about the laughing scan is that it looks kind of buck toothed (or is it just me?)

Re: What questions I'd ask.
My own - about how many first in the line Flashbacks can we expect in 2016?
There were a lot of really good questions in the call for questions thread:
-Is Bill going to be working closely with Matty Collector on future figures? -brutus the barber beefcake? -Will we ever see an Elite WrestleMania 12 Shawn Michaels possibly in Defining Moments form? It's been years since the basic release. If we can get Elites of gray gloved Taker and reversed Kane why not Shawn? -Will we ever get more figures from elite 25 Bruno Sammartino's era? -Will we ever get an Elite SummerSlam 1995 HBK? People here have been requesting it for years.
The "Why did you make elite dean ambrose with boot cut jeans instead of skinny jeans?" had no likes, which I thought was something that would be given weight and consideration for questions.
I know all the questions won't be winners, but a lot of them seemed like common sense or post-RSF (like The Bunny being real) they were answered so it'd be great for those questions to be skipped instead of asked anyway.
Thanks for asking.

Thanks for asking. These are great questions I've even tried asking before and never got answered. Look we know Bill keeps a tight lip on the future and what can and can't be said. Why not change it up? The figures we are asking for have been wants since the Jakks days. Another one would of been how how much more can they do and include in a DM compared to a regular flashback.
