Taken from Wrestlezone:
"You may have seen our recent review of the San Diego Comic Con 2020 Exclusive Mattel WWE Elite Mr. T that was available for pre-order over on Entertainment Earth weeks ago. If you missed out on initial pre-orders you will be able to order him on the new MattelCreations.com website on July 23rd, 2020 at 9am/PST. While the Mattel Creations website shows a much longer wait time for the full site reveal, they still claim Mr. T will be on sale on July 23rd. Hopefully this all goes smoothly for everyone."
I hope that helps someone.

You need to follow Mattel Creations on Instagram to buy this I believe; I think that’s how they are going to sell it given the website isn’t open right now.

"Bill Miekina’s true love and fandom for WWE sparked the creation of the Mr. T action figure."
Yea right, they likely told him he wasnt allowed to make any more Nakamura figures.

I really don't like the idea of buying stuff directly on Instagram. Better than buying off eBay at a 3 x markup. |

That's pretty interesting that an early render has T with the correct footwear, wonder what prompted that change. Also lol @t's belt buckle listing DC Cab as one of his notable accomplishments (it did have an awesome Drew Struzan poster tho).

People have mentioned the boots, but that T render also has the ultimate torso, as opposed to the normal Elite one the exclusive has. I wonder if that change led to the leg change which in turn led to different boots?

Love that almost all the comments on that post are people asking how exactly will the ordering process work to zero answers.
I have a strong feeling this is gonna be an absolute crap show and cause a lot of headaches.

Was it originally going to be an ultimate edition? Torso has the articulation in the grayscale pic.

Wow seeing the downgrades they made are very upsetting. It’s an exclusive and up priced anyway it should be an ultimate edition style figure
Idk how mattel are screwing up doing premium figures while AEW have nothing but premium figures at a cheaper price

protos have shorter boot mold... Bill changed that 🤣 Also looks like the head (mouth) was changed as well, in the render his mouth is closed like the picture showing next to it but on the actual figure his mouth is opened showing teeth. |

Or this is UE we are going to get in the future. |

Or this is UE we are going to get in the future. That I do not know. It looks like everything in the render are on the figure with the exception of the short boots and the torso, seems odd that they would release basically the same figure as an Ultimate that they just released as an exclusive. Maybe they were thinking about making him an Ultimate Edition figure but changed it to a regular elite at last minute. Seems odd to me that they would put him in the UE line considering there is only one legend per wave. |
