I do think they could be more proactive in sharing renders, revealing lineups, etc. The idea of having the wrestlers debut their figures on social media is nice, but just not realistic in terms of timeline. And I think it's better for collectors to be able to plan/budget a few series ahead, vs finding out lineups shortly before they're hitting stores. Totally get that, but if that's how AEW wants to do it then Jazwares is powerless when they wait a long time and leaks come out. A common ground could be wrestlers announcing their figure is in a Wave and then showing a render once available. I think that's probably the best solution. I will say that it seems like there's a pretty collaborative relationship between Jazwares and AEW. So I'm optimistic that they'll learn from these misfires and come up with a solution. On paper, it's a great idea and a huge win for Jazwares to have their product in front of millions of followers every time a wave comes out.

Not sure if it's coordinated or organic, but Britt has had some fun banter about not getting a fig yet. And obviously the Little Bran Bran stuff. Two thumbs up for marketing creativity, imo.

I'm going to assume that the Cody is a repaint, and not one with the scaling change. Unless it has the TNT Title, it's a pass. No Hardy for myself, either.
I'll pick up the rest.

I'm guessing eyepatch Santana is one of the chases and Hardy is the other.

Also just want to add that if series 3 and 4 being leaked/revealed is any sort of indicator, I am loving the frequency of this line.
Sometimes Mattel will go like 3+ months of radio silence regarding lineups, reveals, preorders, etc.
This ship is being tightened up with every wave and that’s before Unmatched is even a thing.
This frequency reminds me of the days of RA, Ring Rage and PPV. Every time I’d walk in TRU I feel like I’d see a new set.

I had to pick up Series 2 at the same time as Series 3 so I'm hoping they give us a weeks notice on this one, my wallet can't keep up.. Excited for Sammy and PNP though!

Just Sammy, santana, and ortiz for me. If Cody comes with the tnt title then maybe I will get him. I hope Kenny doesn’t come with the tag title. I would rather have the titles come with SCU or FTR. Matt is a pass for me.

What is really driving me crazy is everyone complaining about Cody & Kenny. As if Target hasn’t had the same 6 WWE guys on the shelves since 2018 and rarely anyone else

I'll likely order the set. I bet they save the TNT title debut for a Brodie Lee figure. Suited Cody would be a nice mix up. Include Pharoah and its the first one sold out.

I hope elite 85 pre orders are around the same time as this so I can get it all at once

It's been $149.99 for a full set, right?
