Will the MC Cody Ultimate packing be sealed with tape? Curious if we'll be able to remove the figure, but keep the packaging in good shape for display purposes.

Action Figure Attack Could you please put in the word to have Scotty's biker trunks to be molded? The proto looks like they're painted... Any way to also give him shorter boots? Scotty mostly wore Austin sized boots during his singles run.

I do applaud the effort to add Scott to the 5K tier (I was already a backer) but what are the odds you can switch ddp from tights to jeans? I feel like that would be the home run hit.

Hi Steve,
I've just seen a great idea on another thread. These Walmart / Target exclusive figures that are released and are a nightmare for your UK collectors to get, is it possible to put them on the Mattel Creations site, locked to specific regions? That way you don't compromise the exclusivity in the US, we can get them for a decent price and Mattel's website sees more traffic and revenue...
Something that can be considered surely?

Steve, are the chances good/great for the MOTU WWE Superstars figures to get a ring?
How bout an entrance stage?
Would we also see/get playsets for the MOTU WWE Superstars line? I have a great one in mind...King of the Ring 1993 Jerry Lawler and throne...when he attacked Bret Hart!
Thank you for the hard work.

Hey Steve, I know RA line is ending but is that including the Ultimate Edition line ? Are we going to get more RA Ultimates after Eddie, Rey, Brock, & RVD ?

Steve I'm happy to see Bron Breakker making the elite line but wanted that debut attire. Any chance we could get this down the line or maybe even Ultimate ? insert code here

Monday Night War Ultimates are replacing the RA Ultimates at retail. Any potential RA era Ultimates would appear elsewhere like Legends, Fan TakeOver, and mainline.

Does the UE Cody have a clear window on it when the velcro door is opened?

Hi Steve, I've been reading about Vince McMahon having a new deal with WWE/Endeavor, especially concerning his likeness rights. Do you know if this will effect the status of new Mr. McMahon figures being produced? I'm especially looking forward to an upgraded attitude era ring gear figure if that's a possibility. Thanks, really appreciate it!

Steve, something which has come up from the convo about crowdfund and figures
It’s said a few pages back in the thread by a few people that mattel could sign people not signed to WWE but choose not to as it’s not commercially viable
My understanding was mattel can’t sign wrestlers and require them to be under a deal with WWE which included figures as not all contracts include merch deals / figures (some backstage agents etc). Also it’s then discussed with WWE when / who to do
Is my understanding right?

Hey Steve thx for answering questions...Will Bret MNW Ultimate come with Winged Eagle belt ? Just feels like we need the belt to 100% complete.

Hey Steve,
I do love how the Wrestlemania series tend to celebrate different Manias from the past. You guys make the absolute best figs.
However…
When Jakks had the license, the mania series would be singles and two packs of the most important wrestlers from the previous year in whatever gear they were in.
Is there any chance you’d ever take the Wrestlemania line back to This? Highlighting the best gear/more important wrestlers from the previous year for singles and two packs?

Steve any update on the Monday Night Wars Scott Hall boots being fixed and has this been raised with key people who can address the issue? I sincerely believe this would be the difference between a home run of a figure or a peg warner. It certainly would be for me.

I love the old school style packaging you guys do. From the Wrestling Superstars to the Coliseum Collection to the Hasbro inspired retros - not even to mention the awesome SDCC Mr. T and the excellent Legends style packaging. Has there been any talk of incorporating other styles such as the San Francisco Toymakers WCW look from the mid 90s or the Toybiz Smash N Slam line from the late 90s? With all the recent WCW talk, Ultimate styled figures in these two packaging styles would really look great!
