I 100% echo the statements on this thread lately - the sheer diversity of eras, promotions and talent mean each month I'm always looking out for the Brawler included within the Crates, and the online Exclusive offer that follows! Given I'm in Australia, the shipping and wait time between placing the order and actually receiving it is considerable, but I love adding to my collection and really branching it out into something special. Due to signing costs and legalities, I'm assuming we won't ever get a Hogan or Flair Brawler(s) which is a bit of a bummer. Would love to have the two Mega powers standing next to one another, or branch out further into the late 80's and early 90's NWA era. So glad I cleaned house of everything else wrestling figure wise and now have a concise, compact and incredibly vast (in terms era, promotion etc) collection on my hands I think Flair could be in the cards. He opened a PWT store after his WWE release. Hogan has never been associated as far as I know, so that seems less likely. I think one of the PWT employees said they had something like 200 Brawlers in various stages of production. Even factoring in chases, that's a lot of releases.

Does anyone know if the shipping notice from today is for Bret or for Adam Cole? I ordered them at the same time. Not sure which one is shipping first.
Also, the Sting Brawler is probably my favorite of all time along with Raven. That's my favorite Surfer Sting attire and they absolutely nailed it. I know I could have just sold it and got the regular, but I was holding my breath I didn't get the chase when I was going to open it haha.
Not sure if this was mentioned, but I think it's a bummer the Sting doesn't have the cut-out card on the back. I've been saving those in my card binder. I really liked them. Especially since I haven't kept any MOC.

"200 Brawlers in various stages of production"....is absolutely bonkers!!!

I opened most of those, and Brody is MOC but too high on my wall to easily pull down.

I understand if you cut the cards out but personally I like that they are all the same,my ocd wouldn’t like it if they change them lol.

If they do those 5 then that’s 3 very different designs: 3 in robes, 1 x suited and 1 ‘bloody’ version I like that unlike macho where they kept dropping they’ve made it clear from the off how many y they’re doing and when so people can make an informed decision about if and which ones to buy

Just saw a picture of the apparent Bret Chase. It strengthens my tinfoil hat conspiracy theory that this Bret design was definitely done as a 93/94-style Bret and the Hart Foundation on the back of the jacket/title of the figure was only added relatively late in the design phase.

This is a pretty collector friendly move for them -- looks like they heard the feedback...

I'll wait to see the actual renders, but expecting that I'll probably buy them all. I'm a little bummed that it doesn't look like they'll be doing bowl cut or Carolina blue. But it's great to have one of the top all-time added to the roster, and he'll go perfectly with the recent Sting.

Looks like 5 Ric Flairs coming this week. Like that they are showing what we are going to get unlike how they handled the Macho releases. I'll probably pick up all five.
