Riddle is to new for a figure already. I think someone like Charlotte for a flashback or maybe more versions of velveteen dream. Take as many of those as they can crank out. I'd say gargano or ciampa but I dont think the new looks would happen yet no more charlottes after elite 54 rotted on shelves please. Dream would be amazing and so would DOY |

That is what happens when you sit on names great hideo itami joins alex riley, michael tarver, chris masters mike knox, tommy dreamer, hurricane darren young, carlito, mason ryan, david o tunga great gotta get those 10 million roman reigns figures with a new color vest huh. Reminds me of the simpsons episode when lisa makes a doll but everyone just buys a malibu stacy doll with a new hat. Roman Reigns sells more than all of those, you seriously can't be suggesting that David Otunga, Mason Ryan, and  ing Mike Knox all are worth more than Roman Reigns? |

I'd think IF Itami would get replaced, it'd be with someone like Gargano, Ciampa, or Cole. Someone who already has a figure, just a quick repaint/update.

Yeah cause i we really want a 30 man roman reigns rumble. Last i checked the mega stars warm hard on the shelf esp when its there 12th elite in only 15 elite sets.
Put roman next to harley race and see who is worth more. Not everyone wants just 10 wrestlers. With 20 different looks

There is a reason the others were never made into Elites. |

Alex Riley was supposed to get one. Hell brodus clay is better then a kenta figure ?
Virgil is more deserving than kenta ?

Virgil was a limited run store exclusive and Brodus was super popular for those few magical weeks.
Yes, they were both absolutely more deserving than A-Ry and Itami.

Plus those never had a prototype. This figure did. Hell render figures came out faster then prototypes. Im just waiting til roderick strong or andrade gets cancelled because 9 months to release figures shown last july. Hell when series 5 comes out it will likely be after sdcc 2019 meaning over a year

This thread sucks now. Was nice when it involved information about Series 4.

I’m excited to find Riott and Black. I’ll probably pick up Dane too.
I almost feel like Series 5 wont get released at this point but I could be wrong. Every time a series is released, it seems to be the same case. The first shipment sells out almost instantly then Target gets a few more cases and the couple of less popular figures just rot on the shelves while the next series is supposed to be released at that point.
So I’m assuming Dane will probably sit on the shelves while we are all awaiting Series 5.

This thread sucks now. Was nice when it involved information about Series 4. Would have been good for you to throw in some new tidbits about NXT4 then. Besides, Chicago decreed this to be the thread for this year's NXT sets to keep clutter down on the board. Cancelling a fig two+ years in the making that was linked to both series at some point is relative news. Critiquing part choices for Black, as annoying as some may find it, is also relevant. Better here than a dozen separate threads, I suppose. |

Wrestling figure news source said it on Twitter have a look he said we probably won’t see hideo in series 5 😩 I'll wait until there's an official word to be super pissed about this. |

So I’m assuming Dane will probably sit on the shelves while we are all awaiting Series 5.The biggest problem was that NXT 3 was such a terrible set, there's was only 1 figure people were really wanting and that was Ember Moon, the rest were never going to do well. As for Dain, i do see him being the warmer of the set, but not as bad as previous sets. He's not a worthless Flashback Rusev or Reigns, and he doesn't have a second (better) Elite to contend with like Roode had. So NXT 5 should have a much better chance at hitting sooner rather than almost a whole year after they were first shown. |

I really don’t see figures from this series warming like series 3, Black has been highly anticipated, McIntyre is a big difference from his first elite and has been booked pretty strong, and dain and riot are both first time in the lines.

It'd be a d*mn shame if Itami is shelved for good. I wish some had actually been ready to ship since it was set to be released with the rest of NXT4. I wish RSC could make a move for a super duper extra special limited edition Exclusive for those few who care enough to get it, instead of rotting in a Raiders warehouse for eternity.
As for a replacement, I'm curious to see if the Balor that was first rumored/proposed will come to fruition. If not, I'd expect the suited Triple H that was once the NXT BAF before that line was cancelled. Because who wouldn't want that instead of an actual in-ring talent?
