What i heard: 6k backers- they will add Doink 7,5k backers- they will add Raw ringskirts, ropes and buckles 10k backers - raw retro entrance stage. This is what I'd want if this were to happen. We don't need tons of rings every few years, we need a solid base with modular sets. |

The tiers arent going to be anything "big" like another entrance way. You can pretty much guess its going to be a 1 figure & then accessories like skirts/ropes maybe ringmats etc.
Just look into how Marvel does their. You purchase the Sentinel you didnt get a giant Thanos & Apocalypse figure...you got 2 pretty bland figures.

Yeah they tend to include stuff to make you buy multiples. Ring skirts seems like a given. Swappable arms and a Glen Jacobs head to convert Diesel into Fake Diesel would be a genius idea.

You purchase the Sentinel you didnt get a giant Thanos & Apocalypse figure...you got 2 pretty bland figures. Agreed. But I *could* see them taking a different approach here. An item like the Sentinel had a really high probability that people would buy multiples and Marvel has a huge collector base. You're probably right that we get Doink and then the tiers fall off pretty fast on value. But maybe they swing for the fences and hope to put up some big sales numbers. They're already locked in to a profit at 5k, which I think Sentinel was 7k and Galactus 14k for Hasbro. So the overall tooling/production costs are probably quite a bit lower than the Hasbro items. That could allow them to be a little more generous with add ons at premium tiers. Not saying they will, but the math seems pretty favorable for Mattel. |

I wonder if the blue bar cage would cost too much to be included or if it would be a later tier.

We have a full month. No need to jump on this tomorrow if there are other orders you need first. That being said I am still going to get one tomorrow, maybe a second in a couple weeks based on the #of sales needed

I'm not going to jump on immediately knowing I have a month's time to order, plus UE Jeff's and Legends 12 take precedence.
I will eventually back this guy, but not on day one. I'm interested to hear what tiers we have (Please add the RAW letters!)

So roughly a 30 day window for a $250 item not including tax and maybe shipping. I finish college next week and I still haven’t landed a job yet. This is disheartening to say the least. I really wanted that ring.

Doink was teased tho. Could be a fig or could be an accessory pack that includes his mallet.  Didnt see that lol. I watched a video from mdtoys and he leaked this list. If its true we will see. But i think it sounds legit |

Given it's open until 8/22, buying then would be the same as buying tomorrow, correct? Thanks.

Man... we got Fake Diesel in E16, the Battle Pack with Shawn, as a Network Spotlight, AND as a Retro. How about we stick with real Kevin Nash Diesel this time around.

I hope I'm wrong, but I really think they will barely hit 5,000 if they make it -- and it will be towards the end. I think the price point is way too high...

People are pointing to the Sarge exclusive and saying "the demand" is there... but Sarge wasn't $250. I'm not sure about the set myself... it looks cool - but do I really need it? I think if the figure was Jarrett or a similar FTITL figure, it would be far more inticing. |
