I'd no interest in buying this set, but at this point I'd been looking forward to seeing loooooads of photos of it, people setting up rasslin' pics and entrances and such... where are all the photos? I've seen about 3? I know not everyone has it yet, but it's landed in for a lot of people. +1 25 pages of "I have tracking" posts though lol

I've seen about 3? I know not everyone has it yet, but it's landed in for a lot of people. I concur. I was hoping to see lots of people post their arena setups and I’ve seen very few. Thank you to everyone who has. I love looking at the pictures. I think a lot of us, including myself, underestimated the size of this set and don't have anywhere to display it properly at the moment. I for one was only planning on keeping the figures and the entrance but after seeing the ring in person I decided that I wanted to keep that now as well. But I don't have the space to actually display everything the way I want to, so for now everything is just sitting in random spots until I have the time and extra money to get the items I would need to build a setup to display everything properly. I'm sure a lot of us don't have a designated area to permanently put something this large, unless they already had an arena style setup using older rings and such. So give it a little time, I'm sure more of us will share our setups in the coming weeks/months.

My package has just arrived in Gambia for the second time, however this time it has passed customs in Gambia. That’ll be gone forever then.

I've contacted them for tracking and recieved nothing, been 3 weeks since my shipment email. I'm from the UK so I'll assume its in Gambia with everyone elses. What a mess lmao

For international orders I'd be very wary of Landmark Global and their partner Bpost as they don't seem to be the best. I certainly won't be backing anything that has them as the delivery partner based on my current experience with them. Don't expect much for 14,95 USD ..

I'd have gladly paid more money to have it shipped direct to the UK then what I'm experiencing now, alas I wasn't afforded that option.

I just got mine, I kept hearing how big the box was but seeing in person hits differently. Glad Canada Post delivered it, no customs fee yay!

My thoughts of the secondary prices right now are about what I expected. I knew it’d sell high as the first started shipping out, as it took quite some time for these to get out. And many seem to still be waiting on them, at least for non US buyers
I figured the market would get saturated and the value would go down. It’ll probably stay down for awhile and like most things, it’ll rise back up once the quantities start to dwindle down.
What I do find amusing is seeing some people price bash on Facebook groups at others listing prices but they’ll be the first one asking $200+ for some dumbass AEW chase

I've seen about 3? I know not everyone has it yet, but it's landed in for a lot of people. I've posted a few posts of photos in here and more in my collection thread. I can definitely drop more though, this whole set is super fun to photograph. Any specific requests?

I’ve seen some AEW chases go for $300+ but asking $120 for Diesel gets laughed at? Makes 0 sense to me

I paid $29.95 for mine, and am still getting the same shipping service - so it's a moot point really.

Has there been any word on how Macho will be shipped? Surely they’re not just going to slap a label on the shipper..

Found out today that my local depot in the U.K. has had both my arenas (even though Mattel only told me one of my two had been dispatched) for a few days and were waiting for me to pay customs on them…£130 paid to get them released. Excited to get them but that’s another hefty chunk of money spent on the sets. Think this could put international collectors off backing in future.

Anyone else still not got there's (U.K. based) ? I've not had any tracking and messaged Mattel over a week ago to ask for it without reply

I've contacted them for tracking and recieved nothing, been 3 weeks since my shipment email. I'm from the UK so I'll assume its in Gambia with everyone elses. What a mess lmao Try speaking to Mattel over the phone, they were good. I also emailed and received nothing, turns out ParcelForce have had both my arenas for a few days now, looks like the arenas actually shipped within two weeks. Mattel Gave me tracking numbers to speak to parcel force (tracking number should begin with ‘CC’) - Parcelforce can then give you a 17 digit number that you’ll need to pay customs charge (£64 per arena) once they have it in hand. Then they’ll get jt posted out to you. If Mattel only give you the LTN reference, put that into landmark global website and you should see the ‘CC’ reference there to contact Parcelforce with. Having said all that, mine only went via Belgium, no Gambia. Hope this helps you and any other U.K. peeps.
