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. If I remember correctly, there was a 4 horseman hand shown at sdcc, I think? For distinct hands like that, will they ever be a pack to sell just hands? Like I’d like to have a few sets of the 4 Horseman hand to put on Arn, Tully, JJ and don’t wanna have to buy a UE ric Flair 4 times just for the hands. Just a thought, may be a dumb idea, just thought I’d ask.

I was also wondering if stores don’t want legend figures or sets of legend figures or whatever the deal was, why is it so hard to find those legend/flashback figures in stores, and so expensive on the secondary market? And I know why it’s hard to find now with store exclusives, but even before those they have always seemed to sell well in my area stores, I mean they didn’t necessarily fly off shelves, but over a month or so they would all be gone.

Hey AFA..maybe you can’t directly answer this but maybe a subtle hint...Do you have access to Luna Vachon, Jacqueline, Ivory and Terri Runnels?
Thanks for any insight!

You have told us what a diorama isn't. I think he's suggesting pre-packaged "Star Wars" characters, still in their display box? You know, the limited edition action figures? Luke, and Obi-Wan, and my favorite, Chewie! They're all here!

AFA,
You've made this forum part of my daily routine again. Thanks so much for answering so many questions!
1. Does the WWE Network help in terms of rekindling interest in looks for figures like a non Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase based off his Mid-South look?
2. Do you guys get any heads up that a character/wrestler might not have his talent contract renewed do you get enough warning to rush them into production like The Warlord figure?
Thanks again!

I am so excited that Mattel is producing Chynna. I love that they are making an action figure of a classic wrestler without playing moral police. Let the consumer decide. Assuming you have the rights ... Is that possible with JimmY Snuka? Dino Bravo? Or other wrestlers that may be on the naughty list? Are there wrestlers that are strictly forbidden? I assume Chris Benoit?
This would be helpful to get us to customize what will probably never be.
THANK YOU AGAIN!

I've lost count of how many times this has been reiterated by the primary sources. Mattel isn't bucking convention by going forward with a Chyna figure. WWE is letting them.

Yeah, I wasn't going to even touch that one with a forty foot pole, but since it's out there... Action Figure Attack: in the spirit of my last question, asked solely because some people just need to hear it...you're never going to produce a Chris Benoit figure, are you? I mean, come on.

Hey AFA thanks for answering so many of our questions.
Regarding Brood Christian wouldn't he be an ideal figure to get the long awaited Light Heavyweight Belt into the line? I can't imagine he'd be accessory-heavy without it.

I can't imagine he'd be accessory-heavy without it. He will not have that title. We’ll try to make it happen at some point though.

Mid South Dibiase is pretty doubtful. The Network does help keep the Legends fresh in people’s minds in general though. Sometimes we get word of availability or status changes, sometimes we don’t. It’s a complicated fast moving business.
