Hi Steve/AFA, do you ever check out the fix-up thread on this board and if you do, are there any fix-ups or customs you’ve seen that you’d love to include in the official line? Let’s assume parts inventory, rights, and demand were all in your favour. I haven’t in years honestly but I do see tons of amazing customs on social media. |

I happen to have all of those figures, great work my friend! I do have another question: I noticed a lot of the gimmick/Wrestlecrap figures get a lot of love from Mattel and they seem to get nailed every time. Do you find them to be a breath of fresh air compared to more realistic characters or are they simply more fun to work on? Also who is one Wrestlecrap character you'd love to immortalize in figure form regardless of legends contracts/merch deals? Classic wrestling “characters” are perfect for toys. Plus we all love and remember them. Would love to own figs of Gobbledygooker, Mantuar, Max Moon, Battle Cat and so many more. All of those would be smash hits, especially Gooker since we already got another Wrestlecrap poster child in the Shockmaster. Really any of the "90s occupational gimmicks moonlighting as wrestlers" would be dope. Thanks for answering man |

If you could make you're set of 6 Elites, who would you personally pick? Only stipulations are at least 1 current era superstar and 1 legend

AFA, for the new elite 2 packs, will it only be current stats or will flashbacks be made as well?

Is the basic carmella that was shown at comic con still on its way?
Will collectors edition figures such as liv morgan or Kassius Ohno see release as basics in different attires possibly?
What is your favorite set that’s come out this year?

Do you believe there is a particular reason why ECW has had no presence in this line over almost 10 years? Plenty of WCW and other WWE owned territories sprinkled in, but no ECW.

That’s gotta be because they’re not under deals. We’ve gotten most of the people I would assume we’re gonna get. Highly doubt WWE is scrambling to sign Balls Mahoney and Justin Credible to legend deals. We got Dudley’s, Funk, RVD, Heyman, Malenko, Guerrero, Rey, etc. And while they’re WWE attires/looks, they’re who were available. I’m sure if WWE signed Sandman or Sabu(probably won’t) Bill would make a sweet one. But I don’t think the 100 people on here that would buy one make that big of a difference |

Thanks! It's already been hinted at in this thread that Storm Collectibles' deal with Hogan is preventing Mattel from making Hogan figures. As for Ahmed, he's been on the WWE's bad list for a long time, I wouldn't expect him to get signed to a merch deal. Would love a figure of him though. |

As always thank you for your time answering and interacting with everyone.
Any chance you tell us who Bill was working on a few years ago for the Defining moments line, but wasn’t able to be released and was replaced with Undertaker? (Thinking you can’t, but thought I would ask - still think it was Owen as it was right around the time his DVD hit)
I would love to hear your thoughts on loose v MOC v graded collecting? What do you prefer? I have to be honest, I consider myself an MOC collector but I am fast moving into graded figures. Thinking of getting some Mattels graded in the coming months (Ringside / DM Bret Hart etc.) to go along with some Hasbros I have graded. Hasbros I think look simply amazing graded. Just wanted to hear any thoughts you may have...
Any plans / thoughts from legends to be in the 2 pack elites at any point again?
Thanks for the follow back as well 👊

Thats the lighting, youre wrong . Watch the match. It was pink Watching it on the Network right now...And it's the same colour as it is in the video I posted. It's a pinkish orange, which depending on the lighting of a photo, can go one way or another. Then that video would be edited as well, clearly the contrast has been turned up a lot higher. I dont even understand how that can be argued. It was a pink bandanna, not orange. His costume doesnt magically change depending on what video you look at, common sense would dictate the original video that was unedited would be the one to look at no? Who cares? Obviously i do if i brought it up lol jesus . I just wanted to ask if there would be a running change , not argue about what color it was. And steve answered that question so theres no need to talk about it anymore |

Thanks! What has been said. Ahmad/Snow/-If they’re signed they’ll be done. Neither are signed Hogan-Still has a deal with Storm, if anything changed they will say. Taker/HBK-He has said they’ll do more of both. |
