And that's IF you can get him with how these usually go. Cool figures nonetheless. Only really have my eyes on the STOMP figures if they aren't limited. Not a fan of the limited 1 of 300 or whatever craziness.

Mania 35 Remcos also would be cool but not worth the price or effort it takes to acquire em.

I don't get the draw for these guys. Neat, they're wrestlers. Neat, they collect wrestling figures. Neat, they have a pod and a YT about wrestling figures.
But why would anyone want figures of them? Especially figures of them not in their wrestling attire?

Yeah, the only thing I could possibly see myself wanting out of this is the Remco styled Mania 35 set, but no way in hell am I putting myself through the initiation process needed to have a chance of getting them.

Especially figures of them not in their wrestling attire? The podcast is fun and well-produced. I personally find them to be the best of the real popular podcasts out there (not really into Fully Poseable, but like Chick Foley). They're also smart marketers (at least Matt) - they make themselves just accessible enough that people want to support them by buying this stuff. The figures are also limited enough that I think it gets people to buy because they have silly secondary value for now. I've got a few of the prints, the belt sets and the Ringside STOMP figures, but I think I'm probably going to sell those off eventually. If you hang in the Patreon group long enough, you'll start to notice that a lot of the Major merch/ring-worn stuff floats back and forth between a few select Patreon members. They're rightfully trying to make as much money off of this as they can right now, because the economy's still shaky and the bottom could fall out at any time. I like the pod enough that I'll support to the degree that I can, but I'm less interested in the figures. |

Hawkins is actually pretty cool.
Ryder just seems like he looks down on the normal collector, and anybody who calls himself "The Michael Jordan of Figure Collecting" is a punk.

I'm a big fan of the pod and a patreon member, though not a big fan of chasing the merchandise and don't have much outside of a shirt and a print. Most of it is cool, but not for me. That said, I'm definitely trying for that Micro Brawlers. Will probably do the Super 7s as well if they're not crazy limited.

They're made-to-order unless you're going through one of the normal toy websites, meaning they're not really going to be limited unless those toy sites don't order a decent number of them. Would probably recommend against direct preorder from S7 since I'm one of the marks that's still on the hook for New Japan wave 1 and it looks like a year at least between preorder and shipping. |

So the only way to get these is by signing up to their patron and then buying them??? I’m only interested in the elite style ones, the STOMP.

These are cool I would definitely get the regular, WM moment, the suited T shirt, and the referee ones. Though I can never get to the orders on time so no high hopes.
The stomp figures definitely got my interest.

It is kinda crazy when you think about how many different figures they have coming out from different companies. Mattel Edgheads, RSC Remcos, Action Force 1:12 scale, Super7, PWT Micro Brawlers. And now that Matt is AEW he’ll likely have a Jazwares fig within a year too.

This would have been a brilliant post, if it came from Zack Matt himself. This way however, not so much. You clearly don't get the humor. Personally most of their items are nothing for me, but I appreciate the effort they put into their business. Making money and have fun while doing so, MAJOR RESPECT to them. (oh yeah, ZST will most likely send me a free STOMP pin for this post) |

Cardona would take the last penny from a senior citizen if he could.
He is a hustler of the highest quality.

Clearly don’t listen to the podcast regularly I wouldn't listen to your podcast if it was the only thing playing on planet earth. Anybody who pumps their chest about going to more Walmarts than someone is a real dork. |
