I just wish that Basic Orndorff was an elite.

Yay! My question (about the Defining Moments line) was asked... I'm pleased to see it's still doing well and that we'll definitely be getting them for 2016.  I do wish people would stop asking about the Legends line though... it's always the same answer and seems such a wasted question. Sure, I'd love it to return - and sure, it might be more successful this time, but what they're doing at the moment is working and proving popular - so why risk things? The last thing we need is rows and rows of unsold Legends figures (again) in stores. Besides - with all the Flashback figures (NINE with series 38, 39, 40!), the HOF series and boxsets, Defining Moments figures and various Wrestlemania exclusives, we're actually getting more Legends-type figures than we ever were... if it ain't broke, don't fix it. |

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. How many first in the line Flashbacks can we expect in 2016 was a tremendous question and Bill could have answered it without giving away any secrets but instead we get the Ambrose boot cut jeans question which got no likes for a reason and we were told to like the questions we wanted. So much for that plan. How were questions selected anyway? You could see even Bill thought the Ambrose and Sting questions were ridiculous. |

Overall, a really good Ringside Fest! Great showings, especially the Macho King and Rude, looking forward to those.
On a side note, I really don't get this almost universal dislike of Noelle. I see a lot of posts complaining about her handling of the q & a and i'm thinking 'why?'. All she did was read out questions, say cool or ok and smiled throughout. What's wrong with that? She's enthusiastic and obviously enjoys what she does so leave her alone! How all these people are sick of Noelle, well i'm sick of reading your posts insulting her the whole time.

"MDT Questions: A Lack Of Effort Or Ability?", lol. Well, sorry they asked my flashbacks in the CAS line question, I was hoping he'd say "It's gonna be Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart with an Anvil on a stick as an accessory, Max Moon, and Shawn Michaels with a tiger-striped sniper rifle!".
That didn't happen though.

I didn't get much info from that video other than that the new Ryback elite has a new mold.

Noelle did a good job. I'm glad she doesn't talk much and just asks the questions.
Skinny jeans seriously? Can't believe that was actually a question...

I don't so much hate Noelle, but of the various interviewers we've gotten over the years she approaches the questions a lot of the time like she has no idea what they're about. To some degree it might help if it didn't look like she was seeing the question for the first time when she's asking Bill.
At times that means she can't "translate" for Bill what the poster was trying to say and her responses to the answers aren't worthwhile since it's basically "ohhh, right, cool or that's cool."
She's at least enthusiastic, which I give her credit for, but I'm always thinking while watching her she would be WAY hotter if she actually knew about the figures.

Because, bless her heart, she (especially her voice) is tremendously annoying. She also doesn't know anything/enough about the product to ask follow-up questions. |

HELLO EVERYONE, IM BAAAAAAAAACK from a long hiatus of not collecting and being away from WWE. Haven't watched WWE since March and haven't bought any figures since E33. I have a lot of catching up to do. Seeing all of this stuff looks amazing but I do have one complaint for Mattel: WHY DID YOU MAKE A NEW BASIC EDGE?  ? I WANT AN ELITE!!!!!! I will be buying pretty much every elite shown and I will also buy the basic edge. |

Ah cool, one of my questions got asked (re: Crush/Brian Adams). I was pretty sure he wasn't currently under contract (which was proved correct) but good to hear Bill's trying to resign him/his estate. I really want a Kronik version, an NWO version and a NOD version (in that order). Plus I know lots of people want Kona Crush and Evil Crush too. Would be a real shame if we only ever got a Demolition version, especially considering the rather mediocre headsculpt of that figure. New headscan next time please Mattel. Unfortunately I don't think you'd get The Kronik version (at least right now) due to the pot innuendo and the fact that WWE is family friendly PG at the moment and Mattel is trying to reflect that. |
