LOL it was never scheduled for the Ultimate Line, it was the WrestleMania 35 Axxess Exclusive, it even says that in the instagram post you embedded You’re correct it was meant to be the Axxess Exclusive, but at the time it was first shown it was called Ultimate Edition. It was kind of like the original idea of what the Ultimate line would be like, before they added the additional articulation. It was shown during the same slideshow as the Ultimate Edition announcement and given that she was going to come with a cloth robe, 3 masks, a headdress, NXT belt, and have highly detailed deco the early speculation was that it would be the figure that launches the UE line but that was quickly cleared up by Action Figure Attack saying it would not be UE but a preview of what to expect.

Yeah they said numerous times it was the Axxess figure and not an Ultimate figure, but it was leaning towards what you could expect from the Ultimate line.

It was reference as something we can expect from Ultinate Edition, but was never going to be in the line and was only ever an ELITE exclusive with pimped out accessories. Right. It was shown as a preview of what to expect from the ultimate edition line, but not actually in the ultimate edition line. My bad. Semantics.

Please read the entire Instagram post before running to the board to post your disappointment. The FIRST words are this is NOT a Christmas miracle. Anyone upset it was not the announcement of something bigger only has themselves to blame. I offered a pleasant surprise, not a miracle.

Peoples eyes darted to 'miracle' and their hopes shot through the roof for unrealistic things. I think this figs a home run.

If bringing something back from the dead isn’t a miracle then I don’t know what one would consider a miracle to be.

This being released is better than it NOT being released. B. It was going to be exclusive, and now (hopefully) will be seeing a wider release in the elite line. C. It's going to be in the elite line, so it's going to be cheaper to obtain. D. This looks to be a definitive Asuka. That's a good thing. Anyone who built this up as anything more was setting themselves up for failure.

This Asuka looks GREAT, and I can’t wait to pick up a few.

It looks fantastic. I love Asuka and I'm glad they found a spot for it. Hopefully the robe still happens, they can just release the newer nXt women's title with the Shayna Baszler elite.

With respect, Bill - I think your original tweet sounded as though it was going to be something pretty big: I'm pleased for those who aren't disappointed though.

I think it’s a great looking figure and I’m very glad it’s going to come out. I was bummed out when it got cancelled, so I think it is a nice surprise to hear it will be available in the regular Elite line. I may even buy two for head swaps.

That headscan is one of the best Mattel have done yet. I'd argue it's the best female headscan, at least up there with Nia

I think it's a christmas miracle you peeps haven't busted my browser yet with all these giant pic quotes and retrieval errors lol I can definitely see why you don't like this place, but listen bub, that's how it is everywhere online, please pop in more often, at least on the fun topics. Your customers are people who have all the time in the world to complain about toys online, I don't think that's going to change, but you can humor them at least (and hopefully have a laugh while you're at it).

When he said “might be overstating it”, was the key to know it wasn’t anything mind-blowing like some people hoped for.
