Like above you can get these at comic stores if they carry any other sh figuarts lines they can order these if you ask. Other than that online stores where will it be at. Barnes and noble could carry them since they are known to carry sh figuarts too..and maybe a few other stores.

I won't be buying these. 50-60 dollars is too much for me. The Austin is ugly too, so.
I don't think these will be what Jakks is to Mattel though.

I love SH Figuarts.
That being said, the first thing I notice is that Rock has molded elbowpads. Figuarts are for detailed posing, so he needs an unpadded right arm to do a proper peoples elbow.
Really want to see them boxed, and would definitely buy a Sting or HHH

Really the best part about these figures is the extra articulation in the arms. And of course how much smoother the overall articulation will be. And of course accessories and parts to swap out with. I'd say if you have the money and won't bat an eye buying them.. these are a must..and if you're on the fence just wait on reviews.
I will wait on reviews..and I'd like to wait for someone like classic HBK. Or even a Finn Balor.

Cool if they make 80's guys, but i could care less about anything from the attitude era. There's nothing from that time that i havent seen or collected. I can see the younger people being all about it tho

Superior plastic quality + crisp paint apps + smooth as silk joints = tent pole in the pants. Honestly, SHF has really hurt my interest in most American toys. I can't take most of it seriously anymore. For example, I wouldn't touch any of the recent Mattel DC releases. I'd rather put the $20 to a higher quality figure. Lol when people get these in hand they will understand no doubt. I have several and saw many more in The Japanese Book store , Dubai, (a must visit if you ever go) There is no doubt the manufacturing quality but a lof of facial like esses suck. Ive got mostly Iron Man so it dont matter!!!

They won't get USA distribution (as in retail stores) they will likely be available at online stores. I'll have to pay like $80 per figure being in Canada but it's totally justified because SHF are worth it. Check your local comic shops as well. They can special order them, and if enough people ask, they'll stock their store with them. That's a good idea. They order anything in even if one person asks. I've asked for things there before and yet order it right away and call you as soon as they get it in. It's very convenient.

I've never heard of this company. And the photos are kind of making them look iffy. Are they Mattel size or the McFarlane statue size? They around the same size as Mattel but they're a bit smaller. Around 1/2 an inch smaller. They could still look good next to Mattel figs though.

I really hope they make a Shawn Michaels in Survivor Series '97 gear.

Hmmm... they look good, but I can't really understand people going crazy over them - especially if they're going to be $50-$60. The Rock's face looks very cartoon-like and Austin's looks nothing like him (...actually looks more like Kurt Angle!).
Would they be able to make Hogan (and an NWO Hogan)?

I love it, but Austin's eyebrows appear to be way too dark which is making him look more like Bruce Willis in a Stone Cold attire.

The Tanahashi MMPR figs are awesome. If they made an HBK, Owens, Balor, or Punk (if it was somehow just general wrestling and not only WWE which is highly doubtful) I'd be all over them.

They're cool, but not something I need. Now if they ever do Triple H, Randy Savage, or Bret Hart... we'll talk.

Really want to see them boxed, and would definitely buy a Sting or HHH Dude, this is SH Figuarts we're dealing with here, they'll probably include an extra arm without the elbowpad haha the atriculation is probably better with the molded pad. I'm so ing hyped for these this is a dream come true. Ive even mention this years before somewhere in a thread. Hope they do more! Seems like most of us wrestling figure collectors are cheap lmao

Easy EASY get for me... Figures are like pizza for me. I don't mind paying more to get quality. This is not a knock on Mattel, I think the elite line is outstanding for its price point.
Now I just need Hot toys to make WWE or Storm to expand the line and do Warrior, Hart and Macho (to name a few)

Eh, Figuarts makes great looking figures but its hard enough to reason paying $20 for a toy. Ive let a lot of the Batman stuff sit on a local shops shelf cause its $60. For those that want them, enjoy but unless Flair or Hogan, Ill be passing.

I think they look great! Can't wait to see more pictures. Im still on the fence about buying them if they are high in price though.
