I know this isn't your department, but maybe you could pass it on to the account manager assigned to Walmart? Three of the Walmarts in my area(#1698,#2399,1796), and I'm sure many more across the country, are still experiencing inventory issues with the Elite line because of the UPC/SKU error from a few months ago.
One store is showing a store count of 12 units, when they actually have zero. As a result, they haven't received any new Elites in months. I've tried to get the issue resolved at store level, but haven't had much luck. The stores really need to do a inventory adjustment before the holidays or they won't have any Elite figures to sell.
Thank you.

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. Update on Survivor Series Elites. I don’t have a timetable for their arrival but they are still slated to hit Walmart brick and mortar locations. |

Action Figure Attack, is it possible to have a woman's stomach piece made without a belly button? When its not exposed and on a figure that is wearing a shirt or an outfit that would cover it, it looks so out of place. Let's pledge 2020 to be the year of no belly button camel toes! Already being utilized. Check out Elite 72 And Basic 103 Becky. |

Just wondering, there’s been a lot of questions about Jerry Lawler, you guys made his old Memphis/awa look and his current announcer older look, assuming he is still available to be made, can you speculate as to what the next version of him would be in the event he will be made, I think it is long overdue for a classic 1993 heel Jerry Lawler representing his feud with Bret Hart, Between Jakks and Mattel this version has never been represented and is arguably his most iconic WWF look THIS A BILLION TIMES OVER! It’s truly mind blowing that we haven’t had a 93 style Lawler figure in his blue and white since JAKKS did the BCA figures! The guy’s been in constant employment through various stages of styles and manufacturers and yet we are STILL waiting. We really need that much more than an Attitude Era version although I appreciate even that could do with being released too. |

Without asking for specific names, how far out do you guys have the Ultimate Editions planned? And hypothetically---if you guys were to make Ultimate Sting, would you prefer to do a surfer era Sting or a crow era Sting? We have spring 2021 locked in with solid ideas for the rest of 2021. I’d prefer to see Surfer Sting in Ultimates first. His entrance jacket could use some poseability. Thanks for answering my questions! I have a couple more regarding the Ultimates. How many waves are you guys targeting for 2020? I'm asking because we got three this year. Will that be the number going forward or will you expand to more? |

AFA confirmed this is still the plan, so expect to see them more often. Pg 34 |

Balor wave (remember Ringside ships everything in early), HBK wave, Becky wave, TBA wave. |

Can you comment on whether you have access to do a Michael Hayes figure? If not the other Freebirds, at least a Doc Hendrix figure
Thanks in advance

I don’t have a timetable for their arrival but they are still slated to hit Walmart brick and mortar locations. This is fantastic news. So is the WCW Belt news, although I'd love to know which titles you guys are considering actually releasing. Thanks for taking the questions, criticism, and especially the time! |

I second this 100% that’s iconic Jake Roberts as far as I’m concerned. His initial heel run for my money was his best. That would make such a great figure as long as we got a new head scan. |

With the recent influx of new personalities on announce teams (Vic and Dio on Raw, the NXT crew of Mauro, Beth Phoenix, and McGuinness) has there been discussions of getting them in fig form? The last time we were able to get JBL, Graves, Renee, Lawler, etc.
And what about a suited Miz? Guy has done MizTV for years now, and it seems half his appearances are in suits anyway...

Less than $150 on certain auction sites? Legit the best news of the day. |

Anyone actually available to us is a consideration. Not everyone has a merch deal though. |

Will Ringside likely have UE HBK and Brock before 2020? Probably not. This is scheduled for early next year. It really depends on the factory schedule and what shipping window Ringside gets. They’ll update availability when they have solid info. |

AFA can you comment on the likelihood of a new Jimmy Superfly Snuka at some point? Is he completely off limits, like persona non grata?

Say if the UE line doesn’t reach your expectations in terms of sales and you had to cancel the line (which I’m hoping it won’t happen), are there any chances that we start seeing more articulations in the regular elite line? Double jointed elbows, more ankle pivots, etc.? Would love to be able to pose the Undisputed Era in their Undisputed pose or even have Styles do his glove pose properly (both with the hands out forward and over on top of his head).
