So since these figures are ‘ultimate’ With articulation etc. Anyone else kinda hope they stick with a certain era for display purposes. So modern (Ronda) and flashback (WCW Warrior)
Should they keep it wcw themed with Bret Hart etc or at least that 96-99 time period initially so there is some justification for displaying together ?
Also I feel like there are plenty of Machos to be made that would work great with this line. Granted those machos I’m thinking of arent wcw era so there goes my idea. Hah

Hah No. Because after Macho, Hogan, Flair, and Sting, there isn’t anyone else with a big enough name or look in WCW to warrant an ultimate figure.

Hah It makes sense to do both at a time, not in batches of either or. The youngest people who watched wrestling in the 90s, and remember enoughto be fond of it, are somewhere in their 30s right now. There's a good chance that at this point in their lives they have the disposable income to spend on toys. Same for older people. Those groups may also like the current roster, so there's crossover between the generations, and having newer wrestlers also appeals to the newer fans. #HalfbakedDemography

I'm interested but won't be buying the first series. Let me know when they have ones of Alexa, Becky, Styles and/or Sting. Sting is THE one that I'm waiting on. I buy any/all Sting figures from Mattel...but a surfer Sting, with multiple heads and varying degrees of paint wear, a cloth robe or a detailed entrance jacket that I can actually move his arms in! Bring it on! I'm hoping for a surfer sting as well. I feel like if they used the tights from Bash at the Beach 96 (with the word Stinger on it) you could use multiple heads because he's used various face paint styles with that look.

These ultimate versions don't get me too excited but to each their own. I don't need another Warrior, especially one from his embarrassing WCW run. And that ab articulation looks like ass. Nice accessories though. Probably the only ones I'd buy would be if they did some nWo versions of Hogan or Savage.

After watching the newest ringside collectible video I don't think I will get Ronda anymore. Which is a shame cause I thought besides the bad Warrior, she at least looked amazing but now I'm not so sure anymore. The head here has a completely different color: And this here looks straight like bootleg garbage. I laughed out loud when I saw that. 🤣 Just, wow.

The head is lighting man and I think the second head looks tremendous.

I'm always up for a new line, but they couldn't have picked 2 people that interest me less if they tried.
Lemme get Seth Rollins. Then I'm in.

I think the poster may be talking about the neck on the second figure, looks like a giraffe neck, I wonder if they just didn't pop the head in all the way.

I'm not interested in the first set but that mostly just due to the fact I dont need any more Warriors at this time but if they make Surfer Sting,HBK,HHH,Finn,Seth,AJ or Bliss I would buy. The price isnt a issue I think its worth it for what you get but just like all the other lines it comes down to the names thats getting made for me.

If I get anyone from the first set it will be Warrior, but I will definitely get Bret from Series 2.

This video posted on the Official NY Toy Fair 2019 Mattel WWE Discussion thread (page 45, posted by Fighter Hayabusa) says that the faces are printed on by inkjet (true FX) and it looks like they added some blonde highlights to the hair (not enough, but better than all brown). They start talking about the Ultimate Edition Line at about 2:12 in the video.

Here's the packaging for anyone who missed it: Curious to see how warm these keep the shelves.

I am curious to see which retailer will actually stock them in store. Or will this be something we need to go to RSC and Amazon for. Because like with the Epic Moments I have never seen them at a store other than TRU a month or so before they closed.
