the ring is pretty cool but idc about it. i want the figs. prob gonna sell doink Yeah... let's be real here - the figures are what sold this. Hmmm. I disagree. I don't think the 3 figures alone as a package would have necessarily lit the world on fire. I think it's the whole bundle, at least the light up entrance. It just so happened that the initial bundle wasn't worth the $250 as you may not have even gotten Doink and obviously Macho wasn't advertised initially. |

Fair enough... it just seems that the UE Macho - and people wanting Doink - is what shifted this. People seem a lot more interested/excited by the figures than the ring or light-up entrance. |

Unlikely in the extreme, but I'd love to see them tackle a 2002 RAW Titantron as the next project.

If I had to guess from what I’ve read in here in various threads I’d say it’s order of and weighted: Figures 65% Entrance 25% Ring 10% Lots of love for the figures. The entrance has also been popular - it covers both the mid/end of golden era and new gen and then then the ring people initially seemed very impressed with the boards etc and construction but there’s been very little talk or anticipation since. To put it in perspective, imo this is a ring to display, not play. Who is going to display the ring with the canvas pulled back showing the boards? While it initially looked cool, and will be putting the ring together, once it’s done, it’s done. So it’s a very short term gain imo |

If it had just been the ring and entrance stage, I'd have only bought one of these. The figures (especially Macho pushing it over the edge) made me order 3.

Before Mach was added, I was most excited for the entrance. Everything else from my first order would have stayed in box.
