Forgive me if this was already discussed in the panel Steve, but is the Lawler/Vader/Taker/Bearer Retro set scheduled for a fall release and the Hogan/Richter set planned for early 2024?

Can you say if Carmelo Hayes will come with the North American Championship? Or if there's a shot you could include his newly won NXT Championship?

Steve, when do you expect the Piper/ George Steele CC series 3 to be available to order? And, when might we find out who’s in series 4?

Steve, if WWE is sold will Mattel still make the figures?
If the WWE merges with UFC would Mattel start making UFC figures?

Question about the AE ring w/ Kane: is that an evergreen item or is it limited to a certain number or certain timeframe?

Hi Steve,
Excellent showing this weekend, there is so many great things coming down the pike.
Just wondering why the coliseum collection Piper is in a blue attire?
Are you guys planning on moving away from LJN attires for future waves?
The great appeal of this line was to get the toys we remember as kids in ultimate form. I hope it’s possible to release Piper in red in the future.

Steve you showed a lot of great stuff.
Could you clear up whether the SS91 Warrior Duster is for an elite or a Superstars figure? It also should have referee Sid on the back, is this an oversight and could it be corrected for release?
Also wondering if now that WM weekend is over, whether Mattel will be correcting the £110 overcharge for the crowdfund. I think I speak for the majority of overseas buyers in saying we would rather pay the £65 in customs fees when the item is delivered rather than have you take a totally unnecessary £175 (£110 more!) ahead of time.

Why wasn’t Ultimate Edition 19 shown? Can you tell us who is in it?

Hey Steve, is this Steve Austin gonna come with the soft goods camo jacket pictured here? Similar to his Defining Moments figure? Also, is Luger coming with a soft goods oversized puffy white shirt?

Is there any confirmation on how far along the Mattel Creations Cody Rhodes UE is? Is the yellow on the tights going to be the final production color? It seems far off from the gold color on the proto image.

Thanks for taking the time to read these. My question:
Would Mattel/WWE ever consider using the crowdfund process to introduce characters they wouldn’t in a normal series due to being unsure on whether they’ll sell or not or unable to sort out a legends deal?
Eg: Attitude Era Raw is War Titan Tron with: The Headbangers and Gangrel

Hey Steve - great Undertaker reveals this weekend! I’m definitely excited for next year’s Monday Night Wars series. I wanted to ask if that Elite figure will be coming with a robe/jacket similar to Legends Series 19/Greatest Hits?
Will Taker be considered for an Ultimate in that line even though he’s getting an Elite?

Steve, first off some great things shown over the last weeks reveals. And here’s my question. In regards to the basic line is there a way going forward where you can improve on the leg positioning. Look at how close together the legs are on these two figures shown. Seeing as how they are wrestling figure toys is there a way you can make it that the basic all have a wider stance? While I’m not sure how simple it is in design/producing I think that change would make basic so much better. Thanks

Scrolled through and didn’t see this formally asked, and it’s likely the elephant in the room and is probably on discussion BUT….
Will you try and negotiate the ability to sign those not under a deal with WWE and/or loosen the reigns on said deals?
There, it’s out there.

Steve, i have a few requests/questions for you and the team.
#1. On the upcoming WCW Nitro ring, i noticed that the ring has WWE style turnbuckles. Can you change that to more accurate WCW style turnbuckles?
#2. Is Doink a possibility again in the UE line? Would love to get a Wrestlemania 9 Doink so that I can do the infamous mirror spot 😉
#3. Can you please change up the upcoming Monday Night War Elite Scott Hall to more accurate looking pants and black boots?
#4. Is it a possibility soon that we'll see more UE 2 packs?
#5. Is it a possibility that we'll see UE playsets on Mattel Creations? Like; a buried alive playset with purple gloved Undertaker and debut 96 Mankind, Hell in a Cell, and Elimination Chamber playset?
#6.Can you please make a ring for the MOTU style WWE Superstar figures? Would really love that because I love this line! Maybe even make a stage 🤷♂️🙏
#7. Is it a possibility to get a new retro style ring? Maybe even a WCW retro style ring as well? 🤷♂️🙏
#8. At Wrestlemania axcess, there were 2 UE fan takeover figures fans can vote on. Is it a possibility if we could vote on UE 2 packs in the future?
Thank you.

What can you tell us about John Cena being in the Barbie movie coming soon? Is he playing a Mattel WWE action figure of himself?
