Was there an "official" reason why the winged eagle was released with a black globe when it was never black on TV*? And why the black globe is still getting released instead of the proper blue globe? *It was kind of black during the Bret Hart-Yokozuna-Hulk Hogan transition but it was just dirty Design used reference photos that featured the title with a black globe. Both black and blue globes have been released on Mattel Winged Eagle titles. |

Design used reference photos that featured the title with a black globe. Both black and blue globes have been released on Mattel Winged Eagle titles. Follow up since it was mentioned: Is the Mattel design team allowed to use other sources outside of reference photos? Yes and we do. The reference photos are the best quality but if they’re not available the design team can pull from other sources. |

JR is the only thing you mentioned that’s not currently possible. |

Action Figure Attack will Walmart be getting a regular sub series like Target with the network spotlight? Masters of the WWE Universe is Walmart’s exclusive line in 2020. Do you know if the first series is shipping for Christmas this year or are all three waves coming next year? |

AFA. Any chance we’ll see the purple winged belt (Warrior v Sgt Slaughter) and yellow IC belt soon? I can imagine lots of use for the yellow IC belt on future Warriors but as the Royal Rumble 91 Warrior has already been produced, could the purple belt be featured in a belt pack maybe?

AFA, as far as you know, is there any danger of this being a cancelled set? While I've got your attention.. since it's been mentioned that Mattel was waiting for the right talent, E67 Rey was packaged with a belt he never held instead of the WCW one. do you realistically think we'll get the other WCW belts (US, TV, Tag, Crusier)? It’s not canceled as it was already produced and sold at Walmart.com. I’m currently waiting for word on store availability. There will be more WCW belts. I was told by Walmart that it was suppose to have already been put out, and it hasn’t so it more than likely won’t be. So whAt the hell? |

Are there any new belts in the works? EDIT: Sorry, I had this page up and didn't send the question right away. I send it and of course like 3 people just asked about belts.

It’s possible the first wave starts popping up before Christmas. They won’t be on planogram until the January reset but stores could receive them early. |

“Can we get a____?” AD NAUSEAM. I commend your patience AFA.... So much this. So instead of asking about them I’ll just pop in and say I’m an American fan who would love to see (and buy with a quickness) a stable box set like Undisputed Era with Imperium and/or British Strong Style. Hell, I’d buy another Undisputed set if it were expanded to a camo 4-pack even if it meant I’d have 2x camo Roddy. I think you guys did an absolutely smashing job with that RSC exclusive Undisputed set. It’s one of my favorite things in my collection. Edit: I was very stoked to see you can do Walter at least. |

Can you please please make a wcw world television title?!
This is my favorite all time belt and my collection will never be complete without it.
I think there are plenty available wrestlers that could get this accessory

Do you guys always decide which attire gets released for a wrestler? Or do the wrestlers themselves approach you about releasing their favorite attire?
How do you decide where to place a legend in a line? Do you just insert the wrestler in, right after getting the approval to make them?
I understand that you request wrestler that you would like to make. Do you ever get it in reverse; like does WWE send you a memo about wanting this wrestler or attire to be added to a certain line?

How come in the last few years Mattel has been missing on scale between Elites and Basics? With certain guys their basics have been noticeably shorter? And will it be corrected going forward. Here’s a few examples.
Bret Hart - his Elites and basic all Pink RRH are all taller than his other Basics.
Sting - all his Elites are taller than his basics (minus the Network Spotlight and the Fan Central BP surfer Stings)
Macho Man - all his Basics are taller than his Elites because he is given those long shins with the mid high boots. When you could have easily given his basics the same shins and tall boots used on the Original EG M$M.
Drew McIntyre - his latest Basic is much shorter than his NXT Elite.

Are there any gimmicks that are considered not acceptable to be replicated by Mattel? Such as Val Venis, Goldust in leather straps, etc
