Hate the pulldown straps. It looks like it's going to snap and makes him look so bulky

Ultimate Hogan looks great, I'm not sure i really needed an Ultimate of Mr T, but I'll get it to complete the set. Steamboat looks pretty good, might pick it up, but those Legends are expensive for us international collectors. Could care less about everything else, hopefully some good stuff for others though.

I like where their heart was with that Taker but It could’ve been a lot better. I’m still gonna get one for moc and one for loose.
Take that singlet top off, throw on a black vest it’ll be alot better.
Put a better head on it with the old Brock beanie and some shades and we’ve got ourselves a real deal 2001 promo Taker.

Assuming because of Savages cape, we need Mega Powers to be Ultimates…so although the Ultimate Hogan shown today looks awesome (if the head sculpts/Scans come out as good as the images, will be the best Hogan heads ever) - I’m disappointed we don’t get Mega Powers first and guessing this means they are some way off still.
I’ll take as many Hogans as possible but I want the key ones ticked off ASAP. Mega Powers is the last one that’s absolutely needed, followed by RA WWE Hogan then we’re covered for the main looks and they can do whatever they like for me. WM7 if I’m being really greedy.

Love ABA taker, hate those cheap rubber straps. They remind me of the old Jakks rubber coats for some reason.

Excited for the belts really.. and the few FTITL figures. It feels like they know they are strapped for FTITL figures so they are doing FTITL belts instead to try and make up for it.

On the bright side of removable singlet Taker, there’s a really cool look he had on a show before WMX8 where he had a vest or something and no shirt. I can’t remember exactly what it looked like off memory but if I find it I’ll be able to make it now

I can’t remember exactly what it looked like off memory but if I find it I’ll be able to make it now I know exactly what you’re talking about and that’s the look I’m going to make. It’s also in his 2002-2003 entrance video and it’s a legit badass look. As soon as I saw the figure I knew what I was gonna do once I got him

Solid the first segment of the reveals
Basics are dead to me, but I will say that Orton looks pretty cool, and its nice to see Hogan keep the original articulation. Won't be buying any but happy for anyone who will.
Mace & T-Bar look awesome. Extremely well done figures, shame the gimmick was trash and has turned them both into jokes, but I'll be happy to add them to the collection. Same with that new elite Rey, always love being able to add a Rey to my collection.
LOVE the WCW Steamboat(s)...actually want the chase more than the regular one. Amazing that it comes with the WCW TV title and I give props to Mattel for really going outside the realm and giving us titles we've always wanted but never gotten before.
Ringside 'Taker is cool. Don't get why everyone is complaining about it. Super cool idea and I love that they are trying something DIFFERENT. Packaging is great too, even though I wish the new exclusive boxes had a peg hook
Ringside Ciampa looks amazing as well. Beautifully done figure. Really happy they gave him a better torso too.
Ultimate Mr. T & Hogan are absolutely incredible. Couldn't have asked for anything better. What a reveal! The Ultimate Line is something else, I really regret not getting Warrior and Bret when it first started up, I honestly didn't think it was going to last (like DM's) and didn't want to get involved in another line, my head was just in a different place. Really regret it now.

The taker, while unique suffers from the same issues most takers do. The head looks exactly like the second ultimate head just with brown hair in the latest shots they posted on IG. It’s a cool figure from a cool moment but I don’t understand the cutbacks on ringside exclusives

Tomorrow I bet we see the WrestleMania elites, Legends 14, Superstars series 2, and maybe something to be sold on Mattel Creations (next retro 4 pack or something else).

It's not just the eagle. The scale is completely wrong as well. These belts were used as part of the Outsiders/Steiners storyline when the Outsiders introduced "bogus belts" during one of the most popular periods of pro wrestling history. Asking to get them right isn't a huge ask when this is literally their full time job. And before you try to dismiss this as not a big deal, I've made a complete side hustle with people who really care about this sorta stuff. But thanks for your sass that was completely based on ignorance. You'll get 'em next time bucko. Bruh just get Forbidden Figures to make the belt if you want it so bad, her belts are better than Mattel or Jazwares anyway Bruh, since we're giving unsolicited advice in this thread now, here's some for you: The next time you try to dunk on someone, get your facts in order and have some humility and grace when you're wrong instead of trying to pretend like you're the cool guy who's too cool to care. Especially when said person outlined in detail what exactly the issue is in the same thread prior to your very first response.

I could be wrong, and I don't recall last year's Ringside reveals, but it seems to me that they wouldn't reveal Target or Walmart exclusives if they aren't getting them on RSC. I'd say we see Ultimate Alexa and find out who else will be paired with her in Ultimate 12, WM Elites as you said and more Elites.
