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. Do you think this positive interaction we have with you will convince Bill to once again engage? Not that he was ever on here a bunch but it would be nice to see him pop in every now and then. |

Bill won’t be back. The trolls ruined that unfortunately. |

Does WWE/Mattel still have a deal with Andre the Giant?

AFA, do you like Alex Wright?
I think Bill doesn’t.
(I’m not talking about action figures)

I know it's an early ask but with how quickly the red version of the title came out (three months after it debuted), do you think the Blue Universal Championship will be a quick release since it's a repaint? I wonder if it could be paired with a future Seth even if it'd be inaccurate, I don't think people would mind.

Hello thx again for graciously interacting with us fans, really appreciate it as a lifelong fan and collector of wrestlingfigs.
Over the multi year run of Mattel/wwe there’s only been about 3 prominent managers Heenan, Hart, and Paul bearer, and Blassie on the way. Without naming names I know a lot of the old school managers are not signed but are there any classic managers from the heyday of the 80s who might be in the works ?
Also I asked earlier and unless I missed it didn’t see a response but just curious I know you won’t confirm release dates or specifics but is a short haired nitro era Ric Flair possible. He is an important enough character and seems like a no brainer ?
My opinion you guys have made the best toy line for wwe ever, thx again!

No new mangers are available to us at this time. We can always revisit managers we do have access to. Yes, of course Nitro era Flair could be possible if Flair remains available to us. There’s no reason that look would be off the table. |

There literally isn't an Andre I wouldn't buy, so that's awesome news. What look of Sensational Sherri's would you personally like to have on your shelf? |

I wonder if it could be paired with a future Seth even if it'd be inaccurate, I don't think people would mind. We’d release it with a Superstar who actually held that title. Given that, it’s probably a ways off. |

Will the hand pegs be fixed to have proper colors? The new Kane/Taker is great but the skin peg on the glove hands is gross

Any chance you guys will update the kickpads on a future Johnny Gargano elite and give him the correct kickpads instead of just a painted on shin?
I know Jakks did quite a few figures that came with masks, is that something that you guys ever thought about?

I'm curious how far variants can go. We learned that it's strictly a cosmetic thing, so no altering parts or different heads.
What about something more elaborate like, say, a hypothetical Ric Flair robe color variant? Is that possible for the variant figures, or is that a bit too complicated due to how elaborate the cloth goods are? I imagine it'd be too expensive to do two different dusters for Ultimate Warrior, for example.
