I still feel like this will be an uphill battle to hit 5,000. Once the Macho Man deal is off the table there won't be much movement. So we really need this to hit the 5,000 by next Thursday. Who will preorder this after the fact? no one.

Just passed 32%!
For people who visit reddit/other wrestling boards, might be a good idea to spread it around and keep the momentum going. 11% in less than a day is fantastic.
I'm hoping by the time I wake up we've passed 2k.

I think if they added Doink to the 5000, it'd really jump up. I think we can forget 7000 at this point and that figure is far too good to not see the light of day.

Who will preorder this after the fact? no one. Yeah and that sucks now thay they added this macho man and all . Maybe they’ll add more like a ref or something. I just got 2 since the macho man was added.

As far as the ring and entrance stage, you know that if the goal is not met that these items will NEVER see the light of day. There is no retail outlet for niche playsets of this size which is the absolute truth. However, I have a hard time believing that Doink will rot in prototype purgatory if that tier is not reached. They have to spin it in a way to make it seem like a Doink UE figure would not sell at retail when it seems pretty evident that it would do just fine. Hard to fault Mattel on this one though as you can't expect them announce that Doink will likely be made eventually even if this doesn't hit 7k. They are trying to leverage that exclusivity for additional sales which is understandable.

What I don't understand about people is...
Even IF you're not into this project due to size or generation, you putting a pending payment on your card does NOTHING but support future projects you MIGHT love.
And then if it does go through, you can keep what you want from the set. Sell/trade the other stuff to get your money back; it'll all jump big in price once it's out and people have it in person and reviews come out etc.
Hell, if you don't like any of it then definitely hold onto it for a year and trade it for figures you do want. It's gonna be a numbered piece and ultimates are gonna continue to be all the rage so this set as a whole could easily double in value or more. Look at Rock and HBK ultimates.
It's a winning situation no matter what happens UNLESS it fails.

kudos to mattel for adding more to the pot instead of just accepting it not working out. i keep refreshing and it goes up 5 to 10 people every couple minutes, im so happy to see it going up!

Is payment only visa & MasterCard? No PayPal or Amex options?? That’s strange - I’m almost certain I paid with AMEX over the weekend as I get cashback with that card - I’ll have to check my statements and see which one I used if it wasn’t that one

I’ll spend that money elsewhere. I buy to collect. I don’t buy to re-sell.

I asked this question to Steve but I was wonder what other people thoughts are on this if Mattel made it:
