It’s going to hit 5k before Macho expires. I haven’t felt this excited about something unimportant since Star Wars Galaxies was relevant.

Will there be a different “late bird” special for the last week? I may hold out and take the chance because I have enough Macho’s.

There'd be no point in doing that, since if there was a late bird addition (which there won't be), everyone would get it. |

The first Defining Moments Macho skyrocketed in value. This one will probably do the same more than any other figure. There will only be about 5000 made. |

Screw the 5K let’s get this to Doink!
Some people may have to wait until after the Macho Deadline before they’re in a position to back this, surely they would still rather have two figures (Diesel and Doink) rather than just one Diesel.
I really do think it was a mistake for Mattel not to have Macho available until the end of the campaign, I think we would have probably made 8K backers if that was the case by next Friday. I like the idea of having a macho which is very limited in numbers across the world but it still would be limited at 7/8k so if the fact Mattel has put this early deadline in is what stops us getting maximum value with that Doink (and stopping Mattel getting more orders) that will really suck!

You may not be interested in the Macho, but that thing will be worth a fortune so reselling it would pay for everything you DO want to keep (and then some). There likely won't be a late backer incentive, and even if there was you would 100% be entitled to it if you back today. Just like everyone was with Macho who ordered before he was announced. |

Interesting point: if we could average 177 backers per hour over the next 18 hours we will hit Doink TODAY.

We’re gonna get to 5k today. I hope we can get that doink!!!! Here’s hoping dude, within the next 20 hours we will know if this gets made or not and even if this is a success. This community has really stepped up to support this. |

I have just backed this. I have been on the fence since day one, but I know if I didn't back this today I would end up regretting it.

This crap went crazy through the night (UK)! This is definitely getting made! I know one independent UK retailer that is ordering a bunch today for his customers, and I see that being commmon Which one? Wrestling Megastore UK. He has an Insta page where you can let him know you want one. He is ordering today though to get the Macho Man deal. |

When this hits 5k it will be a win for Mattel and anything after 5k will just be a bonus for them until it hits the doink. It makes no financial sense for them to add something new after it’s already hit their goal. |

I’m glad it’s getting made, hopefully a WCW Nitro set is down the line.

Could really hit a home run with that, but i hope they (Mattel) understand that it is largely the figure that drives these, not the stage/ring etc. They would need to be very careful who they put with it to make it work. |

Real solid increase in just the last hour or so. Things are looking good.

I don't know about other crowdfunding campaigns; however, for wrestling fans, this Macho Man figure is as close to a sure thing as you can get. 4-5k made is insane. It will be a grail piece moving forward. 😁
Btw, Bill has been lit on IG all evening. He's been celebrating. You can tell this means a lot to him and I'm happy for him. I'm happy for us!
