Do you ever forsee a design change to elite hands where there would be a way to have a figure actually holding a belt over their shoulder? We can already almost get there with the new elbow joints, but there still isn't a proper looking hand mold for the look something like this  It’s a solid suggestion. |

Hi Steve, I discovered this thread about a month ago and powered through all 800+ pages. Thank you for your time and insight! I am a huge fan of the 80’s WW”E” and LOVE the Coliseum Collection- perfect combination of nostalgia and high end modern collectibles. I’m wondering, given that neither set has sold out, is it meeting expectations? I’m hoping this collection goes deep. Thank you for your time!

Not possible. The fig is in production. I can confirm UE Seth has chest hair deco though. Is it possible to change the Ultimate Jimmy Uso hairstyle? Not possible as we’re too far into development. But heads are swappable so you can swap heads with any potential new or older Jimmy figs to your liking. |

We know being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame doesn't mean they have a legends deal. However, lets say someone like..I don't know..The Great Muta gets inducted this year. How quickly would he make the "request list", if he isn't already on it. What do you take me for sir? Muta has been on my list since day one. |

Was Bill Irwin an official request by the Mattel team or did you just happen to see his name on the list of available talent and was like “holy shiz, I guess we’re making the goon now.”

Can we get confirmation that NOD Karma will have his proper singlet as per the render rather than the inaccurate vest top Bills prototype had? Really hope so, we’ve waited long for this and you guys already have that torso and singlet from the fighting machine. He’ll have the torso shown in the Elite Squad video. Technically both were shown in the Elite Squad video? |

Why are there so few elite Batistas but so many basic Batistas? He was such a huge star of the Ruthless Aggression era, but he’s severely under represented from that era compared to Cena. I think even Jeff Hardy has more Ruthless Aggression figures and he got yanked from Series 1.

Are we getting another ultimate re-release wave this year? One more re-release wave coming later in the year. They’ll be upgraded to pinless elbows. Also confirming the recent Bret and Triple H re-releases were upgraded to pinless elbows. What about butterfly joints? |

Really hope so, we’ve waited long for this and you guys already have that torso and singlet from the fighting machine. He’ll have the torso shown on the physical sample in the Elite Squad video. Are you able to elaborate on how something like this happens? Was this a last minute change in design? Or could have been when the first sample is shown it goes unnoticed until it’s too late? Or it was noticed and the decision was made not to fix it? Just curious to have a little insight on the process when things don’t go right because I’m sure it’s the intention of the whole team to deliver the product that was designed. |

 If he'd sign a legends deal, could you only make figures of his WCW attires, or also from his match with Nakamura from January? |

Now that Muta has been announced as going into the HOF, and IF he signs a figure deal, can you put this look/attire at the top of your list to make? It is my all-time favorite of his. He wore it against Sting at a WCW/Japan Wrestling Supershow in 1991, and he wore it against Barry Windham in 1993:   Also, Muta had some really intricate attires, would something like this even be possible?  |

With defining moments figures making a return, is there any chance like the ultimate editions, that we could see previous figures from the line rereleased with double jointed arms and true EFX head scans?

I hope Mattel never gives Walmart exclusive WWE figures after the absolute joke Walmart has made of fulfilling orders for these. I'm throwing my vote in now for Mattel to please stop dealing with them, Steve. Is there any hope these RA figures make it to Mattel Creations? If Ringside gets them, the price is just about guaranteed to be almost double.

Hey Steve,
Will there be more Ruthless Aggression Ultimates in the future? If so, how often can we expect to see these?

Hey Steve thanks for the great new Superstars figures!
Assuming both figures come with the same soft goods, will the blue chase Hogan be specified on the packaging?

it has to be asked....
Do you know if the new Walmart exclusives (Ultimate Eddie, Rey, etc) are planned to go to retail stores as well as online?
