Imagine they just told us wtf was going on it’s getting corny already Steve is deliberately ignoring all Strongbow questions in the Q&A thread. The whole thing is annoying AF. If you haven’t figured it out yet, Steve doesn’t know as much as he thinks he may. I’ve seen numerous of times he’s tried to “shed light” on things that never turned out to be true. Idk why people still ask him questions. |

Got a feeling elite 90 is gonna be mostly an online wave. Targets around me all are getting elite 91 now. The only elite 90 they got was in that shipper with elite 89. Either that or we will see cases of elite 90 showing up the same time elite 94 and 95 are hitting shelves. Same as target did with elite 87.

These cancellations will be funny for people who sold their confirmed amazon pre orders on ebay and will now have to refund though

Everybody just relax. I think Mattel realized this program was a failure on the part of retailers, Strongbow is the last store exclusive Collector's Edition. These will likely show up on Ringside, just like Zodiac and The Goon before it. The lack of patience on these boards is astounding some times.

I’ve seen numerous of times he’s tried to “shed light” on things that never turned out to be true. Idk why people still ask him questions. Like what? He's said before, multiple times, that he doesn't work with distribution. That's why he can't answer those questions. |

I thought his title was head of marketing maybe I’m wrong but if he is he would be the one that could answer whether or not it’s still coming out. His continued ignoring of the question only furthers the speculation that it’s cancelled because if there was no issue with the figure, he’d have no issue saying it’s coming. |

They cant send an email or call the person who works in the same building that does know ?
It sure would be nice if we got some actual clarity.

Maybe they cannot talk about this for other reasons. Remember when we were not getting any information at all about E92 Cole, Flair, and Wyatt? Turns out they couldn't talk about them, but they were still released. Maybe we are seeing the same thing here. We have seen packaged samples, and usually when it gets to that point, they are released.

It sure would be nice if we got some actual clarity. He doesn't have to do that. A handful of toy nerds asking him questions is the LEAST of his duties. We should be lucky there is a thread at all. He's not going to take one second of his day to shoot off an email to someone at Mattel to ask them when/if Strongbow is going to hit stores just to make you all happy. That said, I have my figure. |

A reliable poster on instagram included in his reveal story that his sources say this figure has been discontinued... I hope he's wrong, we don't get many figures from this era and he makes such a great figure... |

Seems like the wrong time to discontinue a figure. |

AFAs been dodging dozens of questions about Strongbow for a month or more. The only other time I can really remember him doing that was with the canceled RVD.
If you're not out there spending your life savings on the last ever Chief Jay Strongbow figure with real "redface" action, you're gonna miss out.
