I'm not sure if it has been clarified yet, but will UE 18 Macho come with a shirt? If so, will it be like his first Ultimate or like the shirt that came with the New Gen Ultimate? He’ll have a soft goods shirt. |

Steve, Is there a particular reason why guys like HBK, Hogan, Bret, Stone Cold etc are excluded from the elite top picks line? They could totally appear. |

Are there any upcoming first time in the line Elite style figures of legends that haven't been showed yet(besides Captain Lou Albano, Rosey and the Headbangers)? Yes. |

Is extending the crowdfund completely off the table? It feels like we’d get the 5k if it was.

Steve a few pages back you mentioned about a new line aimed at kids / for play
Any chance we can have more word on the line or an eta for reveals / it to hit shelves?
I’m guessing there’s a specific gimmick to the line?

Steve does the failure of the Nitro stage have any effect on the Nitro ring with Bischoff figure? Is there a backup plan for a "basic" Nitro stage to hit retail with concerns of that the Nitro ring likely may not sell as well?

Hey Steve Anything up your sleeve in the last coming hours of the fund to push it over the edge if needed? I don’t expect a figure to be added or anything, just hoping you guys might have a few ideas so we can get this funded! Thanks This is it. Everyone involved went above and beyond to do everything realistically possible to get this funded. It’s in our hands as collectors now to get it to the finish line. I appreciate everyone who’s been positive, spread the word, and provided respectful constructive feedback. If this stage is meant to be and there are enough people who want this thing to happen, it’ll happen. Let’s do this! Hey Steve, As a backer of the Nitro stage I wanted to ask what learning will Mattel take from this? There is some major areas that Mattel need to seriously address and sincerely need to address with immediate effect. International customers. This needs to be addressed Sir, you are producing product for a global company, there is ways and means of making this more suitable to the UK and International customer. Start selling product via WWE Shop UK? Have key people at Mattel meet and pitch with UK retailers. Anything. Figure selection, Did you now feel this is where the ball was dropped? The amount of talent that had to be open to you had to be a large amount for you guys to have a MNW line coming. I still do not get this selection. Advertising, this needs to be more aggressive. From what I seen all advertising resources where put in the hands of influencers. Steve I could care less about such social media platforms, they will report the product on their pages regardless so why did you guys not advertise via the conventional means and ways that have a proven track record. This has to be an eye opening experience for Mattel and proof that better awareness, the need to better support international customers and for a better strategic approach if this is ever tried in the future. |

Since the wcw crowdfund didn't happen. Will you guys try another crowdfund (different item) this year or do we have to wait until mania next year. I feel a HIAC or Eliminatoion chamber would really get funded if you guys tried this year. Even if it comes without figs or only 1 or 2. I think that it would work. Please consider. Thank you

Steve, is doing smaller Entrance stages still a possibility for crowdfunding projects?
Some examples are; big classic WWE logo Entrance stage from early 93 Royal Rumble, Wrestlemania 13, Badd Blood:In your house 1997, Summerslam 97, Survivor Series 1997, King of the Ring 98, Royal rumble 98 & 99
Stages like that? And IF they all fund, would it be possible again to get bigger Entrance stages again? Like; Raw is War, Smackdown fist, Wrestlemania 9, classic In Your House stage, etc.?
Thank you 🙏

Steve, why doesn't HBK have knee pads on his elites?

AFA, if Rude is still available to you guys, could his Legends 2 figure be put in the Greatest Hits line? The tights on that figure was missing a large part of the detail on the back; if the figure were to be put in the Greatest Hits line, would the Warrior detail on the back of the tights be added? Or is the Greatest Hits line just for updated parts (the newer arms and legs technology)?

Can we get these figures @ $33 or made to order @ $45? Which figures are you asking for? If the Warrior from the crowd fund showed up as a made to order item on Mattel Creations, I'd pay the $45 if it was still an Ultimate |

If Jazwares had never made a Supreme Cody with molded entrance jacket, would Mattel have done that instead of the soft goods one?

Steve, would doing the nitro stage as a made to order be an option. I would pay more than $400 for the stage and all figures and i think other diehard wcw fans would too. Can this be explored please? I honestly don’t believe enough people would pay what it would realistically cost at less than 5K units produced. Hi Steve, as far as I know, about 1,000 backers were missing. So 4,000 backers supported the project. The 1,000 backers who are missing could be compensated by the other 4,000 backers with about 100 dollars more, right? But yeah, I don't think all 4,000 backers would be willing to do that. |

Triple H legends 20 - the t-shirt it comes with should actually be a vest rather than a t-shirt, is it too late to change this?

Hey Steve what is the point of giving “influencers” the Mattel Creations Cody Rhodes Ultimate Edition figure if it was made to order and nobody else can order it? Not hating but I’m just not understanding this form of marketing if nobody can purchase the product and those people given the product likely already purchased it anyway.

Hi Steve,
Can you tell us if Wrestlemania 38 Stone Cold is in main elite line or an exclusive series like PPV wave.
I was wondering if the top picks wave with Rey, Riddle and Cody will have all new deco or are some re releases.
Lastly I’m really impressed with the elite 103 Street profits but do you know if Montez Ford will have his newer tattoo he got it done in 2021 but I was wondering cause the show down tenesse titans pack doesn’t have the tattoo thanks
