The can't wait for you to troll the users here some more. Current roster figures are almost never on shelves for long at all the local stores here. Flashbacks stay for months and months until they finally just stuff them all in the broom closet. Just stating what I see first hand. Depends who it is really. |

Y'all don't know what "warming" means, Tito is a warmer, figures that have been there less than a year? Not warming. How would you rank that Jakks Jacqueline from back in the day lol? |

Bam Bam Bigelow is one of my all-time favorites and I still see multiples of his TNF figure at Walmart every time I walk through the aisle with WWE figures. It sucks, really. |

Is it just me, or does that headscan resemble DDP more than Edge? What year is that attire from? I know around 2000ish, but I can't tell 98 Edge, pre brood |

People talk about Flashbacks warming, CM Punk and Daniel Bryan used to rot in shelves in their primes! E32 Bryan went from £20 to £5 in Smyths a couple of years ago. So did Kofi, Punk, Flashback Mysterio & Mark Henry elites. |

-Kendrick turned out pretty good. Not exactly the attire I'd choose, but with the cool blue detailed jacket, I think it comes together rather nicely.
-Edge doesn't look so bad without flash. I really dig that attire for him. Reminds me of one of his earliest BCA figures.
-No interest in Red Rooster, but that's about as good as Red Rooster could realistically look, so well done.
-That Angle set is going to look really eye-catching on store shelves, haha. Smart thinking with the packaging.
-E12 Kane re-released at the very least can have correct laceless boots. It's a fantastic figure otherwise.
-The more I see it, the more I realize how cool it is that we're getting street gear vignette Razor Ramon. Never expected it.
-Glowing Naomi is a really nice surprise! I know a lot of us were wondering why they chose a black attire again for Basics, and I guess that's why.
-And wow at that Carmella! Excellent job sizing that detailed attire down, Mattel.
-That Hasbro-style Owens is like 2-3 years outdated in terms of attire. The attire choices of this line leave A LOT to be desired quite often.
-Zombie Nakamura looks crazy! Kinda want to get that just for Halloween. If people get it, it's Nakamura. If they don't, it's Michael Jackson.
-Ron Simmons...great to see him, but Jakks did a pretty good job on him. He's too skinny here, but he's coming with that old WCW title so that helps. Not sure why both Jakks and Mattel made his blue gear when he won the title against Vader in the purple. That's clearly the moment to go for.
-Matt Hardy...I mean, why? I thought for sure he and Edge would be from their SummerSlam match when Matt returned in camo. His face is kinda doll-like. Not a fan of this one, or those really skinny pants they give him. Hopefully we'll get a purple or blue V1 Hardy later on.
Not a lot of for me personally, but it's always cool to see stuff.

There are a lot of amazing people in wrestling communities. But geeze are they some of the most toxic places I;ve been on the internet. Flashbaks vs modern roster is just the fig world's version of "the guy in my local indy promotion is a waaaaaay better wrestler than *insert WWE superstar name here*" crap that goes on elsewhere. Overall I think the line continues to produce something for everyone across a range of eras. That's something that should be celebrated, because it's necessary for the longterm health of the line. WWE toys wouldn't be #1 sellers if there were no flashbacks (seriously, imagine twice as many Reigns and Cenas a year - somebody has to fill those slots), and there would be no WWE line at all without current figures. I've been pleasantly surprised with the uptick in cloth goods we've seen, and we continue seeing first time in the line figures despite having a deep roster of flashbacks and figures of 90% of the main roster despite the roster being as big as it has ever been. I'm just curious to see where all these figures fit in. Between todays figures and the straggles from RSF (Heenan, Mark Henry), there are a good number of figures that we've seen but haven't found out how they'll be released. Don't forget about The Shark from RSF |

He's as big as Luger just not as defined. Instead of being the first black WCW champion he looks like the first black Cruiserweight Champion. Worse case is you give him the Bulldog/Austin torso. |

Really digging the new Lionel Richie...Now I have someone to sing the National Anthem at my figure fed's Wrestlemania!! i thought it was johnny b badd. i had to look at the tags to figure out who this was supposed to be. Glad they fixed his skintone finally (after screwing it up twice)....but wth. Tatanka, Jinder and Bobby Roode get HUGE torsos.....and they give Ron Simmons small shoulders, skinny legs and the slim Sheamus torso? |

I dont even know if there's a torso out there that could fix this abortion. They havent made 2 black guys the same color yet. Maybe a Rock torso will fit him? |
