I heard on the Major Wrestling YouTube video the Macho Man deadline was 8/10, but I'm also seeing its 8/13 now...which one is it? Did they clarify on social media?

Is the consensus around here that this thing won't fund? I've "purchased" one, so I'm hoping it does. It has momentum now. Itβs seen the most movement in these last few hours since day 1 and definitely the most positive buzz itβs ever received since it was initially announced. Prior to today I would say there was no chance it woulda hit 5K backers. Now itβs looking very optimistic.

Meh, Hope it gets funded for those who want it. But ANOTHER Cowboy Savage-pretty much a repaint? (Yes,Im aware New Gen era) .
A plain black Diesel which ,will eventually end up in UE line (prob different paint) .and a Doink,which looks GREAT..but is not a must have for this funding and a goal that is far beyond reach.
Mattel will learn from this..and their next WWE project will be better thought out.
YES,there will be another project,regardless what is said, stupid to think there won't while they maintain the license.
And of course cost for ibternational buyers..with exchange..Im Canadian..and is close to $350 after probable shippimg..not worth it at all..to me personally.

Just under 1,100? Around 1,077 or so. Thanks guys. Just looking for a baseline number to see how this does out of the gate. I'm wondering if this moves the needle initially more than the original go live date (which I think pulled in just under 900 or something like that). I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and round up to 1,080.

The Macho probably will get more people to buy it but it still won't be enough.

There are only 2 Neon Cowboy Hat Macho Mans that come complete with jacket. One of those is over a decade old.

okayβ¦ and??? i have zero knowledge of the new gen and i donβt even like it enough (i do like the entrance stage and the doink though) but i still backed it up either way because 1. it opens up a door for the next crowd funding project which iβm sure will be 10xβs better than the new gen and 2. iβm selling everything separately anyways. i understand that itβs your money and you choose to do whatever you want with it, but you also gotta take into consideration about what the future holds Nah I just still wonβt back it, I do think it wonβt even make the 5k. But another project will be made just bc this isnβt i doubt theyβll try another crowdfunding project if this one doesnβt reach its potential. even if they do make another project if this one doesnβt achieve its goal, people would still complain about the next one and mattel would eventually not even bother at all

One worry I have about this. Will we see many backers after August 13th now? If people know they missed the boat on Macho does this effect last minute backing? I was thinking this as well but I feel/hope they have one last surprise up their sleeve for that final push. Probably wonβt happen but if they had one last ace up their sleeves and it was like Wrestlemania X Bret or IYH vs Goldust Warrior for the final 2 weeks Iβd be overjoyed.

There are only 2 Neon Cowboy Hat Macho Mans that come complete with jacket. One of those is over a decade old. I do think it will give it a short boost..but not long lasting. Macho was my fav wrestler. However I don't think it is iconic enough of a look to make a big enough dent in a week long window. Hopefully, Ive appeased the grammer goofπ I would argue that his final Wrestlemania appearance is a pretty significant and iconic look.
