How excited are you to be able to work on Kurt Angle figures again?

Can you also please fix Eddie Guerrero's and Dominick's Skin tones? I know mattel is not racist. But being Latino/Mexican does not mean they are tanned/brown... The last Dominick figure was way too brown.. dude is almost as pale as Rhea Rippley.  Eddie is just as if not even more pale than LESNAR   |

Steve- I know there are mountains of questions but to bump a question I asked earlier- what happened to the new Rhea Ripley headscan shown in renders for elite 102 what led to the change/opt for old headscan instead?
Will we possibly see this head re surface?
I loved that headscan in the render!!

How come Mattel decided to treat unlocking the hulk hogan crowd fund figure differently from the macho man crowd fund figure with the whole early bird process. Why not whoever orders him before April 7 gets him as opposed to needing 5000 to get him.

Steve,
I am respectfully asking you and your team if you would reconsider not punishing those who are early backers of the NITRO SET by removing Hulk for us? Last time, what put me over was during the campaign, you decided to throw in Macho Man and the announcer's table. I was on the fence before that ... and that made me jump in because I didn't want to lose out on him. Would you please reconsider this by adding a few days and changing the bonus for those in? I think we will get there, which will be great for you and us ... but taking away something might jeopardize this. I appreciate your consideration.

Action Figure Attack Will the crowdfund Steiner have sculpted biker trunks? What about shorter boots? Scottie wore boots similar to Austin... The proto looks like the trunks are painted. Really looking forward to this figure Steve.

Steve, Iโm sure youโve received a barrage of these questions but I am curious. Is it possible for tiered figures to be moved around? Is it possible for Steiner to move to Reyโs spot? I donโt know the research done for the crowdfund, on the marketing side especially, but it seems like these crowdfunds are more niche audiences and having a FTITL figure as a buying incentive would held sway those on the fence even more to back the project vs watching from the sidelines and saying โIโll back if x, y, z.โ
Genuinely curious about the process and if thatโs something feasible to do?
Thanks again for all your time and dedication, best wishes on the crowdfund. Iโve back 4 so Iโm definitely hoping we unlock everything here!

Why not whoever orders him before April 7 gets him as opposed to needing 5000 to get him. โข Hit the negotiated production minimum on that figure. โข To be able to ship with the entire set as there was negative feedback on the experience with Macho shipping separately. โข Listening to the feedback from the New Gen and Eternia crowdfunds of unlocking the early backer bonus permanently. โข Give maximum potential value for everyone interested in the stage. โข To try to retain any momentum for the duration of the crowdfund. |

Hi Steve - not seeing this being answered and it's the main sticking point for us UK backers - there is no logical explanation given for the cost of the Nitro set even when we have stated that we know the customs charge is to he expected and when factored in, its still a heck of a lot more.
I'd really hope you can give more detail or tell us folks over here in the UK that this is being looked into.
You guys have done an awesome job with the stage, but can't shake this sour taste in my mouth that we are being ripped off. And why no instalment plans, or PayPal or AMEX for the UK?

If you did him with the wig and headgear would you make it one molded piece or would you figure out a way to have it be removable? |

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.  Hi Steve! Any news on this ? |

Hey Steve, will the team try to sign the Great Muta to a legends deal? Thanks.

Iโm sorry I donโt personally have all the exact info or solutions youโre looking for. Iโm not directly involved with the team that handles international pricing or fulfillment. I have of course seen the comments over the last week and asked for clarification which was the statement I read during the livestream and paraphrased below. โWe are doing our best to make product available globally, but the item still ships from the US. As such, we are including duties, taxes and INTL shipping in the SRP, to ensure there are no hidden costs for fans later." While I donโt have exact calculations of what the shipping for this item would be in various countries, I can imagine itโs a lot. I just purchased a blu-ray box set from Germany and it cost over $65 to ship. This Nitro Stage is considerably larger. In regards to payment plans, I am seeing some international consumers paying with a payment plan so there does appear to be that option. Iโll of course continue to read comments here and pass them along to the Mattel Creations team to see if anything else can be further clarified. |

Steve, I noticed on the upcoming WCW Nitro ring, that it comes with WWE style turnbuckles.
Is it possible if we could get WCW style turnbuckles with that ring?
Thank you.

Hey Steve! Is it at all possible to change the head sculpt and legs on the upcoming Monday Night Wars Scott Hall??? Please, this is one of my most wanted figures for quite some time now and, in my opinion, deserves perfection. That past head sculpt has only been released twice and is in need of a real fx treatment. Itโs the perfect ponytail sculpt for this Hall. Also the upcoming Bulldogโs tucked in pants are also perfect for this Hall and how he wore his jeans that night. ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป  Scott will have a swappable ponytail head. Bulldog in real life is much shorter than Hall so those parts may not work. Still trying to explore options. |

Are you able to confirm if there are more Defining Moments figures coming to RSC, or was this new 4 pack a one and done for at least the time being? If this is successful, and all current indications make it seem like it is, the line would ideally live on at Ringside. |
