I personally love the reveals so far. I can’t see passing on any of them so far.

Stoked to get Hall/Nash/Hogan/Syxx in matching gear at the same time. Brilliant move.
Both waves are a solid hit in my opinion.

man oh man!!! love the reveals today!!! Huge fans of both sets we saw. some thoughts:
Hollywood's tank top looks molded on, as does Valentine's jacket. Maybe Tugboat's is also as it appears to be a new mold (or is that Bray's old body?) - I hope this means a few other new molds are coming.
Given all this, I'm hopeful the next few sets will knock out remaining grails like Heenan, Vader, Sherri, long tights Macho King... and heck, I'd even be happy to get some old WCW guys. Between this and all the upcoming releases from Chella and zombie - there are a ton of cool figs on the way IMHO.
(also - tough break for Chella - as their R&B Valentine is going on sale tomorrow)

Amazing lineups and I really hope the NWO line is easy to get for UK collectors.
I echo the previous comments re Chella Toys as their Greg goes on sale tomorrow and I think some will hesitate now you can get the official WWE one.

I’m really not enthused by the next set due out with hart foundation etc but that Lex, Tugboat, Doink & Greg set is awesome for Hasbro filler enthusiasts and I’ll be getting that.
Only problem is now…do I bother othering the Chella RnB Greg tomorrow? Or does that now get overriden by Mattel’s 😳

Why do they keep giving Syxx a beard?

Just realised that those of us who have ordered Zombies Double J will now likely end up with a Mattel ‘duplicate’ 😳
Although, have to say Zombies are better figures.

As for the Valentine pre-order tomorrow… that one fig will likely cost as much as one retro set from Mattel… I’m still tempted lol

I'm confused to how he could be getting done by Mattel and an independent company at the same time. Did pics drop of any of these? Stoked for the NWO guys, but can't see the others being too exciting personally as I've already got customs of all the un-released figs and they're pretty spot-on. |

Chella definitely happening tomorrow. It’s different and looks great I think but do we need two? And the Mattel one is closer to the Hasbro that never made it out. |

Watching the YouTube stream of the SDCC panel, Steve announces Series 12 (Bret, Anvil, Jimmy Hart & Volkoff) goes on sale for pre-order August 31st.

We are seeing a lot of this sort of thing lately, in regards to many wrestlers across various lines. It's clear that some guys simply do not have exclusive deals with Mattel, at least outside of brick and mortar retails releases. |

I want to like this line, but I've been spoiled by Zombie's stuff. The sculpting on these are too soft and cartoonish, the Hasbro stuff by Ron Rudat was much sharper.

That Nash head sculpt is excellent. Is that a new mold for Hogan?
