I was wondering how soon is it that superstars get scanned for a figure?
Obviously they did Ronda asap but seeing bald shawn yesterday made me think if we would get one hence my question of how soon after a superstar debuts a new look would they get scanned?

I think they do the big 4 weekends, and random events here and there, so they get NXT and main roster in one go(I guess).

From what I've read and tried, it can take between a second to maybe half an hour to scan someone, depending on the equipment used. What popyduggan suggests makes sense, they can scan wrestlers en masse at events if they use a portable laser scanner. I can't imagine it would take too long for an experienced modeller to clean up the files to get them ready for printing (but that doesn't stop the scanning shops from charging $150/hr lol). |

My guess is the next round of scanning, if they need to do one, could be Survivor Series weekend. Most of the roster will be in LA for a few days. It would be easy for Mattel to take the scanning equipment from El Segundo to the Staples Center or if WWE has a hotel booked for all the talent, they could do it there.

Obviously they did Ronda asap but seeing bald shawn yesterday made me think if we would get one hence my question of how soon after a superstar debuts a new look would they get scanned? There’s no specific timetable on how quickly a Superstar is scanned. We try to do larger scan sessions once or twice a year to get as many talents as possible but will scedule additional as needed like in Ronda’s case. |

I mean, Steve obviously knows. But if you look back on when bill or mattel or wwe shares a scanning event, its all very random, and they nab a lot of people all at once.

I believe they scan people two times a year unless there’s a special exception like Ronda
