I'll get it eventually, very far from a must-have item. Not even with a rare title like Matt's ECW Phoenix belt. As I speculate with Sane, I'm guessing the sleeves are detachable for removable. Maybe we'll get some answers from MattelDesignTeam or Action Figure Attack soon. Sleeves detach from the jacket like Kairi’s.

You’re exactly right. I was talking crap about this pick earlier. I buy Sasha’s Elites because I actually like her and enjoy watching her. But her Walgreens Elite And WM 35 Wlite were some of the biggest shelf warmers of the last couple of years. Why would they think a premium priced ‘regular’ Elite would be a good choice. Maybe it was pushed on them or something Just like the shield angle figure. Ringside you know you can just say no to mattel when they give you dibs on figures that don't look all that great. The Shield Kurt Angle was originally a Toys R Us Exclusive before they shut down and it is overstocked because it was supposed to be sold at 800 stores and now it is all in one warehouse.

Yes but again, you can always just say no to mattel if you have doubts of a figure selling well. Just like that Jericho exclusive that is shockingly still available for $23.99. Lots of poor choices being made for rsc figures. I will say home runs on the belt packs though. I would like to see more choices of those in the future.

As long as they dont mess up her head scan, I feel it's a good exclusive.
It can't get worst than Ringside Exclusive Sheild Kurt Angle.

This could've been ring-attire Corey Graves... but no, another Banks figure is far more important.

I'm fine with this. Not every exclusive is for everybody. There are plenty of RSC exclusives I haven't purchased, but I do plan to buy this one.
I think it's a way to get this figure out to us sooner. Like someone else said earlier in this thread, Mattel probably would have had to bump someone from another series to get this figure out quickly.

It will be a very expensive figure to make with all of his tats. Like Showertime Rusev he performed pre-WWE Network so very few people are familiar with the character. Too niche combined with high costs make this figure very unlikely.

Looks absolutely incredible! First face scan that has actually resembled her, all of her past figures have looked nothing like her.
I don't buy figures (sticking with the Eaglemoss figurine collection, much cheaper, less space, and don't fall over), but I really want this. Of course, it has to be an exclusive! All of the figures I would ever possibly consider purchasing are exclusives. I'll just have to hope that someone in the UK buys it and sells the figure loose on eBay. I have heard in the past that purchasing a single figure would not be enough for customs fees to occur, so perhaps I might actually buy it direct.

Instant pass which is great as I've spent way too much on figures lately. Don't need another RSC exclusive right now haha hopefully the next one will be better

Lots of poor choices being made for rsc figures. I will say home runs on the belt packs though. I would like to see more choices of those in the future. That Jericho was an awesome idea imo. Most people consider that his best Mania match of all time. The head just turned out like garbage was my real issue with it. I'm not a fan of the Sasha because you'd be hard pressed to convince me that couldn't have just landed in the main Elite line. I think the biggest thing with the Sasha is that the figure doesn't represent anything. I'm sure she'll win the title again, or the Rumble at some point, and I'd be more inclined to buy a figure that represents a big moment for her. Just a weird pick for a character I wouldn't blink twice at if Bill put her in a Top Talents wave. It doesn't feel like a good use of the exclusivity. But then we're dealing with a company who has pushed their most passionate collector base into spending $100 per figure on Ebay. So I'm not about to start trying to solve the Rubik's Cube that is Bill's sweaty mind.

I might give this one a pickup. Not my first choice for an exclusive but she might look good MOC like the Kane/Taker box.

I expect to see this at a Toyrus in Toronto, just like I see the Shield Angles clogging up the racks correctly.

I don’t know why people are mad! I’m happy that I get one I don’t have to buy. We have gotten enough good stuff this year. Glad I don’t have to spoon out another $30 for this.

I assume this became an exclusive as it’s the fastest way to blue-haired Sasha out.
