I hope it doesn’t end. I’m glad more flashback figures are coming out

They don't sell well at all but they keep coming out with them. There's still 8 Goldberg EGs at my Target. Been there for months and looks like not a single one sold. Can't wait to see how Ultimate Editions do. My guess is they will fail at $30. I'm also curious about these Elite 2 packs they plan on doing. Have to be $40-$50 each. They have done elite 2 packs in the past at $30 to $35 retail. Hopefully that trend continues. If you are buying 2 at once, then they shouldn't still be $20 each like separate figures, unless they are coming with tons of accessories, a la Epic Moments. The Walmart 3 packs were also $50 for three elites. $30-35 isn't bad at all for a 2 pack. I'd buy one. I was basing it off of RSC's Hardy Boyz 2 pack for $50. |

RSC exclusives will always be higher than retail. |

the mr perfect head is one of the worst, ugliest, most inaccurate likenesses MDT has ever done.
and he they didnt even do the ponytail for him. unreal
but sheik looked great.
and other than perfect, it was one of the best wwe lines mattel ever did.

Yeah the more I look at that Perfect the more I feel it’s gonna be a pass for me. Not a fan of attire choice or that head. Sheik isn’t much better. I can’t not see Steve Harvey looking at it. I do have a basic head I can swap for it but not sure I need another Sheiky. The shorts one is perfect. |

Perfect mib is available online, albeit a bit pricey. No, not my listing.  |

GameStop ain’t gonna be around next year so either Perfect and Sheik get made as the final releases or they get moved elsewhere and Duggan/Flair are the last ones

The same sellers who had Hacksaw and Flair Retrofest right before Gamestop now have Perfect. So he should be hitting Gamestop very soon.

FlIr & Hacksaw are still full price I don’t think the new ones are hitting at least until they go on their first clearance for $18.99 or whatever
I think HTM hit when Macho & HBK went on clearance
Flair & Duggan hit when HTM went on clearance
Hopefully these two new ones make it out. I’d love to be able to buy them

Would be cool if they did figs based on the Arcade game. Doink with hand buzzer, Undertaker with tombstone, Yokozuna with ham legs, etc... That would have been really awesome and I would have tried to collect all of them if they did something like that-especially Doink lol. I also think it would have been great if they did some sculpts and added paint detail to make them look like the old pixelated arcade/video game sprites. Similar to what NECA did with the TMNT arcade game figures. Thing is mattel are a toy company who make toys for kids. NECCA make adult collectibles What would be amazing is if a split license could ever be done where mattek make the main line and NECCA the more niche collector items |

Looking at some of their licensed products they aren’t afraid to do extremely niche products. So it’s probably not out of the realm of possibility |
