Steve, Should I give up on ever expecting to find the RA series 3 in store and just go the 3rd party route or do you guys have a plan to actually get those figures distributed? It’s looking like they’re going to hit retail fairly soon.

Hey steve is there any chance that some of the exclusives like ra line and defining moments line come to mattel creations to purchase Maybe. I’m aware of the desire for this option and I’ve had lots of convos. Will keep trying to make progress.

Hey Steve, have you been able to get any confirmation on the upcoming 2002 Survivor series Shawn Michaels and if he has cowboy boots or not? I know the render had boots but the physical proto had the kick pads.
Thanks again Steve.

What would be your preferred plan for an updated Commissioner Michaels since a lot of people were not able to complete the BAF of him? Greatest Hits re-release with updates or a completely new look in the Monday Night Wars line, Legends, etc?

Is it possible to start wrapping all shoulders of figures that come with a black cloth anything? I’m sure with moc collectors they would be happy to have their figures in a jacket shirt etc instead of it being put to the side because of staining. I’m not a moc collector, but I like displaying my figures in their entrance gear when possible, so if the shoulders are wrapped with plastic it would prevent the staining from happening . I do know the DM Bret Hart has it , so will that continue

But to piggy back off this Steve seeing it’s a RSC Exclusive with one set a year if RSC sells out of any of the four during the year could they possibly order more of it? Or are they one and done?

So we’ll get 4 more in 2024?

Hey Steve - the render for the UE Legends Bret Hart had 3 heads... do you know why the 3rd one wasn't included? (will it be used for the MNW UE Bret?) Cheers.

Hi Steve, are older defining moments eligible for the greatest hits line? Would love an updated re-release of the undertaker from survivor series 1996. Hesitant to pay secondary market prices if the possibility of it coming back out is there.

Hi Steve, the Major Pod guys have begun doing LJN style 8 inch rubber figures. The Demolition figure pics look great! Any chance Mattel could also revisit this figure style, to scale with and in the style of the old LJN figures? Thanks for your time!

With Jakks having attempted the LJN style and you guys currently doing Hasbro and Remco styles, is there any chance we could see Mattel jump into the Bone Crunchers? They're my favorite wrestling figures of all time so I'd love to see it.

What is being done to change the distribution at Walmart? I know my question probably won’t be answered because it seems harsh but TRULY put yourself in our shoes and have to constantly go and check Walmart for new figures that we want and always come up empty handed so it’s a waste of our time and gas. I’m lucky to have quite a few Walmarts around me but there are other collectors where they have to drive a decent amount of time to go. I haven’t seen elites at any of my local Walmart’s in months (Target is starting to getting bad) and the RA series is not existent and people are finding RA series 3, 4 and 5 at the Mattel store which are they exclusive to Walmart anyway??? It’s terrible when things become exclusives and the store housing them can care less about collectors so I’m not sure why Mattel would keep giving exclusives to Walmart until they can show improvement with the way things are distributed. Please do right by us collectors and hold Walmart accountable.

Steve,
What happened with greatest hits HBK? The lower knee is always painted black but for some reason this one is red like the rest of the tights. Compared to all of the other Shawn’s from this era, it sticks out like a sore thumb.

Lou I believe Steve has said that, at least for now, they will be sticking with the original LJN (and almost-LJN?) lineup. But I do like the idea of tag teams with managers, could be a good way to get managers in. Depending on availability, this could include Hart Foundation with Jimmy Hart, Bundy/Studd with Heenan, Demolition or Powers of Pain with Fuji, Sheik/Volkoff with Blassie, Dream Team with Johnny V, British Bulldogs with Captain Lou, etc. What do you think, Steve?
