We're unlikely to get Mania 9, and we have 2, 3, 4, 7, 8 covered already. 5 including basics too. So it really does fill a gap in anybody's Macho collection. Plus we've not had a 94 Macho period yet. His Royal Rumble fig he also wore in 94 vs Yokozuna I mean it's not really exact (Macho King bandanna, no hat, different wrists and boots), but it's the closest we've had so far.

Thanks both - I'm really tempted!
More so as an investment piece tbh.

Did he wear the WMX attire in WCW? It does look very similar to the OSFTM fig That does look to be the same attire, but in terms of what he actually wore in WCW, I think it's very similar but slightly different.

Why are there 3 separate threads talking about the same exact thing?

Anyone from the UK ordered yet? Yep, $15 shipping is a bargain. But obviously we may get hit with import duty. I'm grabbing another in the coming days. Every part of this campaign is gonna fetch a colossal amount on the secondary market.

idk how accurate these are but: - Ring - $110 - 12" LED Stage - $90 - Ultimate Diesel - $30 - Ultimate Macho Man - $30 - Announcer's Set - $15 - Ultimate Doink (if it hits 7k) - $30 - Ring Skirts (if it hits 8k) - $15 Total: $320 value is really good if we hit 8k I would say to take out $45 for the stretch stuff since the price doesnβt go down if it doesnβt hit 7k or 8k. That brings you to $275 based on your estimates. I think those are pretty fair estimates. The stage is the wildcard. Thatβs what has me on the fence. Iβm not sure itβs worth $90. If Mattel sold it normal, theyβd probably sell it for $90-$100, but packed with probably a smaller ring and maybe a basic figure. Granted, you could also estimate Diesel and Macho Man around $35 each. Itβs definitely something Iβm considering backing now. Just gotta think about it some more.

Another hidden value is in the shipping. Itβs $7. For the size and weight of the box all of that has to be shipped in that would normally be around $20-30.

I was the 20th person to order and this add on is great. I would have love to see them add a Undertaker vs Yokozuna Coffin/casket from Royal Rumble 1994 or Survivor Series 1994 , that would get 7000k.

Only thing bothering me are customs duties for that motherfunker. Any germans here who know how much it's gonna be ?

It hit 1,500 backers!
Surely this Macho Man add-on is going to generate 500+ new pledges within 8 hours of the announcement. That is pretty wild.

I feel a lot better buying into this with the new additions. But I sincerely hope it can reach the Doink threshold.

This surge is exciting, but man itβs making me realize how daunting this task really is. If you added literally double the amount of backers we already have, we would still be short of the base goal.
We got a tall task WFers.
I love you.
