When we get another Crow Sting elite, what particular look would you like to create? Is there a chance that we'll get a new bat mold? Considering that Sting's bats were aluminum and not wooden with grain...

Is it still early enough that y'all can give The Fiend Elite some bigger guns? Not ridiculous like Big Show arms on Kevin Owens or the Tugboat arms on Rhyno, but something beefier than the little birdy arms on the original Wyatt figures.  |

Bill had said back around e19 when Zigger’s Elite figures suddenly became super jacked in the arms and legs that once a figure of a wrestler changed to larger parts it was almost impossible to switch them back. Yet the Scott Hall went from the DM Razor parts to thicker/bigger limbs for the RSC Hall Figure. But then all the other elite Hall figures went back to the the smaller Razor body. And the same with Rollins his post Shield Elites have used the skinny legs and arms until the NXT figure who got the larger Ziggler limbs. But then after that figure he went back to the scrawny limbs making them out of scale.
Why is it so hard to release elite Ziggler figures with his original limbs yet Hall and Seth it was no problem making them smaller again? Ziggler figures are to big while Seth and Hall are to small. Can that be corrected going forward with their figures?
Also with any future Surfer Sting figures would it be possible to use better part choices for him? I mean obviously I do like his figures now, but you have much better parts at your disposal being...
Torso - Austin
Shoulders - DM/e62 Surfer Sting
Arms - DM Steamboat / E19 Ziggler
Thighs - Edge or the E19 Ziggler
Lower legs/boots - DM/E62 Surfer Sting

We’re moving fast on this to get it to you as quickly as possible. |

And that encompasses many factors they have to consider; tool /mold availability, parts fitting together, licensor approval, etc. We do change quite a bit that you don’t ever see because it’s fixed long before we preview anything to collectors. Your feedback has also changed things given time; Kevin Owen and Jim Neidhart long arms corrected on newer figs, Ron Simmons larger torso, etc. Just keep giving feedback and we’ll do our best to accommodate. |

You referenced the next wave of UE figures after Beock and Shawn as the "Becky wave". Has there been an official confirmation as to who the other figure in the set is?

Thank you for making those changes. Can you please eliminate the kickpad mold that has the top part molded onto the calves? Edge and HBK deserve better than having their kickpad designs misaligned |

What about Stan Hansen or Bruiser Brody? Have you put in a request for them or what would be the likelihood of them getting made if they were under a deal? They weren’t ever mainstream household names but huge stars in every territory they performed.

Do you see new molds ever being created for guys such as Kurt Angle or Bill Goldberg?
The unique tooling that guys like Mabel get is incredible and and essentially makes them perfect recreations of that character. The existing parts aren't always so perfect for guys like Angle or Goldberg. Any thoughts on a new heavyweight chest or a new less muscular singlet chest?

ztj_wwf oh, I meant another Crow sting besides that one. I personally want a ‘98 elite with the thicker hall of champions Eddie torso. Action Figure Attack thank you! That would greatly be appreciated! Sting is my favorite of all time. Now if something could be done to modify his boots to make them taller :/

If you had the choice, what attire would a Macho Man UE figure be wearing?

Topps cards, New Era hats, Chalk Line jacket and now a new Funko Pop!, Hogan has to be available to work on?

Until that’s done I am pretty sure Mattel’s hands are tied. I thought about that, and it may in fact be the case. I just think maybe Mattel is waiting to announce it with one of those WWE.com reveals when they are a little further along in the process and have him slotted. Even if we never get another Mattel Hogan, I’m fine with the ones I have. Now back to the real issue at hand, Beach Blast ‘92 Sting  |
