No but it hasn’t stopped Boss Fight from making stuff so far Announcing stuff? Sure. Making it has been a different story. A 2 year turnaround for the Fanaticos 1 and even longer for Konnan/Maravilla is ridiculous. You could argue that by the time these figures come out, no one will be with the company anymore, obviously Kruger is already gone, and I can’t see Fatu being on their roster too much longer.

Do you all understand that Boss Fight is a company of about...ohhh...maybe 10 people?
And that's being generous.
They share factories with bigger companies. Like Mattel and Hasbro. Bigger companies always take precedence to the factory owners over smaller companies, because it's always going to be signifcantly larger orders, therefore significantly larger bankroll for the factories.
The Super7's and the Boss Fight's will always be pushed to the wayside.
Therefore, wanting product to be pushed out is like pulling teeth for a company the size of Boss Fight. Do you think they WANT to have delays?
I'm not even mentioning the fact that COVID is still very much a thing, and that fine tuning figures with a language barrier over email and Zoom is a difficulty you all can't comprehend, versus the days of being able to fly over a supervise for yourself.
You all demonstrate your complete ignorance and lack of basic knowledge on the toy making process every time you post comments like the above. These aren't magically made.

Sounds like the guy from super 7 who made the horrible njpw figs with the cool cloth accessories that I paid too much money for..

Oh sweet, a belt pack for $25. I'll take 3 or 4 of them.
"This set includes the World Heavyweight Championship Belt, The World Featherweight Championship Belt, the National Openweight Championship Belt, 2x World Tag Team Championship Belts, and the MLW Opera Cup. Make sure your figures get awarded for their matches in style! Estimated Fall 2023, this item is a pre-order item."

They don't look too bad. they have a belt pack. 40.00 a piece Mads Krugger has a really decent look. Solid set, 2 wrestling lines from the same company.

I’m ignorant for suggesting that because of the time it takes to make this (which you admit takes some time) all these guys might be out of the company? Merely an observation.

These look cool. Didn’t expect Kross at all with this line. He’s obviously a pass being back in WWE though. I’m sure Mattel gets an updated version of him out before MLW comes close to getting this one out.
Might grab Fatu and Hammerstone. Not sure the market for these, it seems pretty small, and so I think it’s bananas these exist in general, in a good way.

Do we think these are the same size as the Legends of Lucha figs or closer to Mattel? They look a bit bigger, but without comparison pics it’s impossible to tell.
Full disclosure: I haven’t looked anywhere else so if it’s been mentioned, I have no clue.

Making a Karrion Kross figure is such a bad move, he’s not very popular at all and both his WWE figs pegged warmed hard

LOL@ Killer Kross when Mattel already made him and was available for $4.99 on Ringside.

I'm interested in Fatu & Hammerstone, I like how they look like the wrestlers they're supposed to be. I like their points of articulation. I'd buy Kruger at discount. No interest in Killer Kross, I already have an Elite of him that I bought cheap online. (At the time of production, I'm guessing MLW & BossFight thought Kross was going to stay in MLW a lot longer than he did.) I pre-ordered both Konnan & Lady Maravilla from BossFight thru Amazon and I'm happy with how they turned out. They aren't worth $40 each, but it was these or nothing. That's how I approach this MLW line; These or nothing. I'm curious how Cesar Duran looks, depending on price and what kind of ring, I might buy it; This or nothing. I wouldn't mind a smaller authentic scale ring. It would be nice to have a detailed ring that takes up much less space. If it's just a basic style ring, its going to make it harder to sell me. (What size ring does MLW use?)
Looking at their roster, I'd want a Mance Walker, Willie Mac, Puma King, Delirious, & Microman.

These look absolutely solid. Hopefully the final product turns out just as good especially since they do know how to apply truFX on their figures. Weird to see Killer Kross getting a figure here for obvious reasons, but I would have thought that Boss Fight would change his figure to someone who doesn't have one yet you know so it can sell better but who knows.
My only complaint is the MLW world title that comes with Hammerstone looks a bit too small. I love the title pack Hopefully those scale well with every wrestling figure. Same for the figures too since they are coming from Boss Fight.

I think these look good. I ordered all but Kross. Too bad they couldn't have gotten a different roster member other than Kross, but oh well.
I'm very happy they're doing a belt pack right off the bat too. I really wish S7 would have done that with their NJPW line.
