Has El Matador ever been up for consideration? It's a memorable look. Of course he has. Very memorable era for Tito.

What prompted the recent expansion in certain lines to two store exclusives per set (namely the two recent Target lines, with Liz/Sonya and Ohno/Paige)? Are each of those being packed with every case shipped to those stores, thereby making the entire set "one per case"? Target requested additional figs in those exclusive assortments. It was a perfect way to get Liv and Paige out who were stuck in action figure purgatory.

Any chance the real scale stage will see light of day?

Let’s say you get the OK for Hogan today. How soon could we expect to see him on the shelves? I am assuming that you could get the ones that were already previously in various stages of production out pretty quickly. If we bumped someone out of an existing lineup to put him, no new tooling was needed and the factory could accommodate the last minute change, maybe 8 months.

Will we be getting a new 04-05 Eddie anytime soon?It’s so weird we only have one figure from his best run that was released like 8 years ago There will eventually be more Eddie figs.

If you guys make a WM 12 Warrior, would it be a DM? (And even if not, can it PLEASE come with the duster) DM has been replaced by Ultimate Edition. No plans to bring it back at the moment. It may be possible to make it work in an assortment of figs to help spread out the cost. We’d have to see how expensive the fig and duster are.

I know asking if it will come back won’t get much of an answer, but would you like to see Defining Moments come back? It was my favorite line. The way the packaging looks and using it to capture specific moments made it seem special to me. Unfortunately due to when I started collecting I missed out on a lot of them, but the ones I do have are some of my favorites in my collection.
Edit: lol, just a coincidence that I asked this before seeing the response you just posted above.

Bit of a random question, but I just bought a Gerald Brisco, and on the back of the box the NWA Tag Team Championship is listed as one of his titles. Does the NWA just not care if you list their belts on packaging? Because I remember some of the Legends figures had this too

Action Figure Attack Would it be possible to correct Roman Reign’s skin tone to a lighter complexion? His figures seem to be a bit too dark toned. I know in the past, you guys were able to fix the complexion on Ron Simmons.

You guys throw if it makes sense In a set or if we can fit it into a set lineup. Could you tell us what goes into a lineup? What factors are there into what makes up a set of figures?

I know in the past, you guys were able to fix the complexion on Ron Simmons. That's been my biggest pet peeve of Roman's figures for damn near 7 years. One thing Nia Jax's basic has over the Elite was the lighter complexion. It'd be as good as you'd get for Roman nowadays.

Will hand pegs ever be fixed to match the design on the figure? It's very off putting when someone has a taped hand and there's just a big gap because the peg is skin tone. Or like the Roman figure above ^^, where there's a black peg for a no tape/no glove hand.

For me, an ideal Elite lineup contains Main Event talent to anchor the wave, mid/undercard talent, NXT talent and a Legend. You’d ideally have a female in one of those categories as well as a first time in the line. This creates a lineup that has the widest appeal featuring talent that caters to each segments of WWE collectors/consumers. This exact strategy doesn’t always work out for a variety of reason (licensor feedback, talent issues, production issues, available tools, etc) but it’s what I strive for when planning out the line.

I don’t remember who was bumped out of that Basic wave anymore but someone definitely was.

Its so great that you are active on the boards thank you for the replies. Any chance this could be made available on your own online store? Any chance you would do classic figures off your online store again? Instead of making most new classic figures US store exclusives its next to impossible to get these figures in Ireland without paying way too much and with shipping and customs charges too. Kassius Ohno, Paige, Liv Morgan, Pat Patterson, Gerald Briscoe, and next Gorilla Monsoon and Anvil will not be main line (Main Line no longer carried it seems in Ireland also) its getting harder to keep supporting this awesome line

Are you going to be continuing with these 'collectors edition' store exclusives for the foreseeable future and/or is this the new distribution model for legends figures going forward?!
Just curious, what prompted you to come on the boards and start engaging with all us collectors?

Collector’s Edition figs are here to stay for the foreseeable future. Legends are not exclusive to Collectors Edition. You’ve seen mainline legends like King Mabel & Vince, inclusion in exclusive Series like Wendi Richter and Don Muraco, etc. It’s just being utilized to get even more out. I’ve been on the boards forever and would occasionally post, most of the time with no engagement traction so I stuck to Instagram mostly and sometimes Twitter. For whatever reason, this round of posts caught on and engagement has been great. I’ll keep doing it as long as it stays positive and the trolls are ignored/minimized.
