I had ZERO interested in a Shockmaster figure until I saw this, but since Mattel has the guts and sense of humor to make a figure of this infamous moment, I think I'll get it. When people see my collection, they'll ask: "Why is that figure upside-down in the box?" And I'll have a story to tell. Truly unique MattelDesignTeam. That is pretty much the only reason I want it. It's a unique piece capturing a wrestlecrap(TM) moment.

A wrestling figure has never sold out on Matty (Andre may have temporarily sold out but was quickly restocked) so not expecting this to be any different. Predicting RSC will buy out their remaining inventory and have it on their site by the end of the year.

I doubt very much it will sell-out - Bill said "nobody" bought the Matty WWE figures... heck, they had to cancel the Miss Elizabeth one and put her in the standard Elite line. And if a Legends/first-time release Andre The Giant didn't sell out...

I would expect it to move faster than the originals. They might even have tweaked their production numbers to counter what was done originally to prevent this.

I'd also imagine there is a much smaller print run on this figure. I'm not taking any chances and ordering my 2 the moment I find out these are available on Matty. If they stay in stock for months, so be it.

Done my home work today. looks like they will post to the u.k. when I put my address in. But could anyone from the uk confirm that it will ship to the uk. Also will it be in one of those box's ?

I would expect it to move faster than the originals. They might even have tweaked their production numbers to counter what was done originally to prevent this. I was thinking since they were making Tugboat they were able to produce a limited amount of additional figures and repaint the legs and boots. The only added costs would be in the production of the robe, mask, and packaging. It is possible the inventory could be considerably less than the WMXV Taker. That being said, how many people are going to know to look on mattycollector for this figure? Its been mentioned several times in this and the other SDCC thread and people still are making comments like "bummer I wont be at the con, wish it can be found online." And even those who are educated about matty's after SDCC sale the price will be a deterrent to some. Not everyone is going to want to pay close to $45 for a jokey figure.

I've ordered from them about 7 or 8 times - and yes, the figures always come in the white boxes, inside another (standard shipping) box. I remember thinking their UK shipping prices were very good too (...a lot better than RSC, that's for sure ).

I put Bill's quote on the first page, yesterday when the thread was about 3 pages long, and at around 10, people are still mentioning that they're bummed they can't get it. Its also been mentioned in this very thread several times too. Their loss I suppose.

It's so much easier to simply post and have your voice heard. It doesn't matter that something has been answered 12 times, something has been debunked * bill with goldberg* or what ever. People read one or two sentences and have to say something. It's kind of an epidemic.

It's stated that shock master will be for sale on the site after the con. And even after that's stated people are still mad you can only get it at the con.... 3 or 4 pages of goldberg speculation. Bill says no.... people continue to ignore what he said...... Come on.

Bill explained the budget situation 7 years ago and it's been explained a couple times since then, but people still say "cancel the CAW line and put the money in the elite budget"

And it takes reading. People simply won't read, so why are you expecting the complex thoughts? It's no different than people not understandin quality control, how prices have changed in 7 years, that mattel has no haND in distribution. ..ect...ect..

that mattel has no haND in distribution. ..ect...ect.. This. How do so many not know that its not Mattel's fault that your Target isn't stocking the new HOF figures. That Mattel has no influence over your TRU charging $25 for a Network figure when the MSRP is $20. And these aren't all Jobbers and Mid-Carders, they're Superstars, Main Eventers, and Legends. Even if you're not reading everything, you'd think if you're on here that long, posting that much, then an understanding of how certain things work would subliminally seep into your brain.
