Is there a ring that scales well to these? I’ll probably never get hold of the MOTWWEU rings, I’m assuming the retro ring is too small and the standard Mattel Superstar Rings would work well. Kinda makes me wish I had the classic ring cage match set that came with the Rude and Warrior elites.

I wonder if you could use the MOTWWEU ringposts on a basic or retro ring. |

They actually don’t scale that bad inside the basic ring. The height of the ropes are about the same as the Greyskull ring.  |

I've been playing around with some Elite entrance gear, so I'll just answer this here with some other random pics. Can their shoulder spikes from Legends Series 1 fit? They sit a little high.      |

Man I hope they can get Demo & LOD back under contract. They would perfect for this line.

Guys from MOTU that need to be revisited:
Jake. Wasn’t easy to convert due to the paint apps and molded pieces on arms. Basically needed another figure to swap out parts
Steamboat. Also needed another figure for parts due to molded pieces on arms.
Stone Cold. First was hard to get ahold of and had snake eyes. 2nd you needed buy another figure due to so many MOTU specific parts
Piper. Came with furry MOTU boots and no other figure had maroon boots to swap. Best you could do is black boots for his IC run look which required you to buy another figure
Bret. Torso was bare. Needed a singlet strap upper torso.
Anyone that came with the bracelets. Rock, Cena, T, Slaughter
*Oh and Kane. I don’t think there’s anyway to fix him up where he doesn’t look out of place. Too many molded parts that can’t be swapped out with any other figure. Plus the hair and eyes aren’t right.

If I was to be super critical of the motwweu line, which I don’t like to do because I think on the whole it was super fun, but if every figure could have armour, gauntlets etc removed to make them as pure wrestlers or in the case of toddy a second pair of boots etc it’d have been perfect. Even if it was say $5 more because of that |

Especially since they gave him wrist tape and knee pads making him an easy perfect conversion to wrestler if not for the boots. |

I gave Piper the red boots from the Streamboat, and then gave Steamboat a pair of black boots from some other figure. |
