Sucks that they are doing a women's champion elite line exclusive to wallgreensðŸ˜ðŸ’” Should be available all over the world not just Walgreens! I agree, or at the very least it should be exclusive to a retailer with an online presence. This is why I would be all for Ringside taking on more exclusives throughout the year, even if it means having to pay a couple bucks more than retail.

Thank god that the HOF line will continue. Here's my problem, Bill didn't say it was continuing. He said it is still shipping. That doesn't answer if the line itself is still doing well and if there's more in the works. He also made no mention of DM, which doesn't look good to me. Otherwise, I did enjoy the Q & A...except Noelle.

I cannot wait to start seeing the Walgreens exclusive line. I'm hoping it will have women past and present with their respective Championship Belts.

Excellent Q & A, whoever chose the questions did a great job this year. And credit to many of you guys that came up with the questions.
And despite all the haters, Noelle did a great job, unlike many interviewers she doesn't interrupt and doesn't go on and on, she understands that we want to hear from Bill.
Thanks Noelle and MattelDesignTeam

thank you for a great q&a RSC! but i have to say the way it was edited with the questions popping on the screen was annoying and made me dizzy. noelle also added a headache. except for that it was informative and i liked the hint for new playsets coming there are questions i wish could be asked like the lack of kneepads and correct elbow pad for aj and stuff, but it is something we can always fix in a minute

Atleast international collectors could get them through ringside then! Or else they should offer the exclusives to other shops internationally

Did Bill mention Taka Michinoku? No, thankfully, questions about obscure wrestlers that nobody wants were broad and not about individuals this year. so we got some real questions.

Billy Graham should absolutely be made. Colorful tiedye, boas, flamboyant glasses...cmon they've been using the excuse about figures "popping" on the shelves. Billy would absolutely do that. Now Pedro? Yea they'd likely sell 2 of them. One to me and one to PJ And me ofcourse, I was chuffed when he got asked my question on the 70s era wrestlers getting made. Id buy every wrestler made from the 70s...especially the McDonalds fearing, Ken Patera.

I missed that, when was Graham brought up? It was nice to finally hear him answer about the WWE Champ roster. Granted, it was the exact answer I'd expect, with guys like Stasiak and Moralrs being hard sells, but hearing him say he'd like to do it is encouraging. I still think multipacks are the way to go. Do Championship Lineage 2 packs and shove Stasiak in with IYH:DX HBK and Rogers in with 2002 Hogan. They'll sell alright, haha. Not Graham specifically. I believe it was 1970s wrestlers and past WWE Champions. Bill said 1985 was a seeming starting point, although not firm since they've done Bruno. I wonder if Graham might squeak through since he had the mid-1980s run and is in the HOF. Ah, ok. Yeah, Graham seems like he'd be a special case. I mean, I don't see us getting Spiros Arion anytime soon, but Graham was a huge star and a bit flashier than the average guy at the time. He'd make a killer figure. I remember last year Bill confirmed that he had the rights to him and wanted to do a 70's version but was concerned that an 80's version would sell better.

Pretty good Q&A overall. The questions were decent this year, I only wish a question more focused on Flashbacks had been asked, something like "Are there plans to cut back on flashback releases in 2018?"
On another note, thanks to Bill for all the hard work and the dedication towards the line. Thanks to Noelle too for asking the questions. I really don't understand all the criticisms coming her way. She seems really nice, interested and doesn't interrupt or try and steal the show. I wonder why some on here feel the need to slate her at every turn. Be careful what some of you wish for, because if she does pack it in with RSC, we could be stuck with some self-obsessed, uptight interviewer.

Throw in the WWWF Championship and it would be an easy sell, I think. People love belts

If a new entrance stage is in the works, it makes me glad I didn't waste money on the current one, have thought about buying it several times but I held out for a new one, time to play the waiting game I guess.

You know, rewatching the Q&A I think my question was asked but not in the correct way. The question "Will the new Women's line have new hand and fists molds?" Makes no sense. OF COURSE it's going to be new hand and fist molds, it's a brand NEW line! My question was geared toward the Main line. SMH

I cannot wait to start seeing the Walgreens exclusive line. I'm hoping it will have women past and present with their respective Championship Belts. This is what I am hoping for. It will be disappointing if all we got were Sasha, Bayley, Charlotte, Becky, Nikki, Alexa, repeat. Mix in Richter, Moolah, Sherri, Mickie, Trish, Beth, Lita, Sable, Chyna, etc.
