Hey Steve! Two questions: 1. Is Dean Malenko still under a legends deal? We’ve only had 1 figure of him and would look amazing with updated FX and updated arms. Possibly in the Greatest Hits line? 2. Have you guys ever considered/are considering making a 1999 ref Shawn Michaels? Soft goods shirt?  Thanks in advance! |

Hi Steve,
Could we see other wrestlers from the Golden Era in the Coliseum Collection even if they were not in the LJN line but would fit in that time period? I love these sets!
Thanks!

Can we expect another retro ring in the future now that retros are in full swing. A nwo or maybe a attitude era ring.

Probably not outside of maybe finishing LJN era teams like Demolition or Powers of Pain if we ever miraculously got those guys under deals. |

Maybe someday. |

Is there any plans for updated Gallows and Anderson to be released? Will certainly try to get them back in the line. |

Would love to in time. We’re still fairly early in building a consumer base of ultimate scale ring owners. One that base is really significant, we can look into things like skirts. Piggybacking off this, could future ring skirts come with a plain black (or blue for classic events) opposite side? That'd be really helpful for figure photographers/fig feds who don't want WWE specific branding on their rings. I’d suggest just doing some that were straight up plain rather than two sides. Dual sided would probably cause them to get priced out of realistically being able to make them. Those skirts are already deceptively expensive. |

Do you think an ultimate scale HIAC could be produced without a crowdfunding campaign when there’s enough rings sold to warrant producing accessories for it?

Can we please increase CC releases to 3 or 4 times per year? I’m sure I’m not the only collector who is literally All-In for this line, and salivating for more releases! Thank you!

Someone asked this before and I think it’s brilliant idea. Now Ultimates have moved to 3 per, is a full set, dedicated to 3 faces of Foley something that interests you? Or is it more likely that it’s split over a few series?
Perhaps, something like that could be suited to a future Amazon release or even a “made to order” Mattel creations run?
Thanks for your time as always.
PS… will you and the team be hitting podcasts to try and keep the stage moving forward in the coming weeks as we close in on the end date.

Would you want to put a Golden Era ring in the Coliseum Collection or would it be its own thing like the Ringside exclusive RAW ring?

Steve is there a set formula for the Ultimate Editions when they hit 3 figs per wave? As in two legends + one current day star or vice versa?

Is it still too early to tell if the Ruthless Aggression was a success?
Do you see the line making a return once it finishes up?

They seem to be made of some type of thin canvas material. Would it be cost effective to make some skirts from a similar material that the Mattel Elite Scale Ring or Raw/Smackdown Main Event Scale Rings ring skirts used and release those on RSC or Mattel Creations? Like a PPV pack? |

Hi Steve, thank you for your time and insights, as always. If Demolition Ax becomes available, and if his next figure is slotted for the Coliseum Collection line, would you prefer the red and black LJN homage face paint, or the more common red and silver? I know multiple heads are likely, so you could possibly do both, but for MOC collectors, which head would you want to be primary?

Hi Steve- any possibility we might see LA Knight this year?
He and Bray pitch black match would be a great figure set.

If there’s a future crowdfund project, do you see it possible for specialised toy and hobby retailers around the world to buy bulk orders at a discounted price that still makes the project profitable for Mattel, to make sure it sells as many products as possible?
I feel like it could add thousands of backers that you never would’ve gotten
