Remember that we have two sources about the Target WM Set and one seems pretty detailed. 😉 It's actually the only product that I would be interested in from this apparent leak. Although WM4 Hogan without ring gear seems like an odd choice for a set celebrating 40 years of WrestleMania. My thoughts too about WM4 Hulk. Unless it’s just a way for Mattel to slot that particular look in somewhere without offering it as a standalone figure in a future wave. Theres also not that many Mania looks for Hogan that haven’t already been done. We got WM1 in UE. WM2 and 3 are essentially the same other than the headband color and rib tape. WM3 is the DM and I am guessing they’re holding off on a redo for UE. WM4 match is basically the same as WM2. WM5 is pretty much the same as the Mega Powers fig. WM6 is SvS/GH. WM7 is another Hulk Rules shirt with only difference being the flag bandana. WM8 is the next Legends. WM9 has been done in UE and vs Yoko is HOF (could use a redo but if you’re doing red tights then do WM4). WMX8 has been done twice. WM19 is the only other look that hasn’t really been touched. Maybe since they did a tie dye look in this year’s Hogan pack plus another in next years UE they didn’t want to do it again right now.

Well, maybe... Just after the UE Miz... 2 time WWE champion so possible. Yokozunas personal job guy got one so who knows.And don't you forget it... No matter what happens, Bayley and Miz will always be the ones who got an Ultimate Edition figure after Lex Luger... Bayley never should have turned on those two Japanese girls, did you really think Bill would stand for that???

Miz definitely should get an Ultimate figure. Some of his entrance gear is so insanely detailed, it would make a great Ultimate

Who on the current roster that has gotten an UE figure is the lowest on card? Shinsuke? Finn? While I don’t disagree that Miz probably should have an UE, the way he is currently being utilized is probably what is preventing him from getting one. Feels like they’re still trying to stick with top tier main event talent in this line for the current roster.

I’ll just take a HULKAMANIA soft goods shirt in yellow and I’ll be happy.

I personally am not a fan of mentality that box sets should include new looks. Collectors like me who don't buy hundreds of figures just want to have solid box sets with looks that have historical significance. It would be weird to have peak WM Bret and Roman with a ringside gear Hogan. We are talking about someone who headlined almost a decade of WresteManias. I would feel the same way if they included WM26 Bret instead of WM12 Bret. Anyway I still have high hopes that there is some truth to this news. As a WM figure collector I was dissapointed when nothing special was released during WM XL season.

Feels like they’re still trying to stick with top tier main event talent in this line for the current roster. Shinsuke was so long ago though, can't really count that. It was also a hall of fame peg warmer. Miz is not being used as much currently but he is a Legend on top of that current status. AJ Styles has barely been used for the last year or so and he got an Ultimate just around the time they started adding back current talent. Plus with them adding 3 per wave now there's really no excuse for guys like Miz to not be in the line I'm sure he will get in there at some point. But I do think they are going to be running thin sooner than later with 3x per wave. Lashley was a top star and his Ultimate was very underwhelming and can still be found in stores.

Yeah but at the time he was greenlit he won the Royal Rumble and had a world title match at Mania. It was just that a year later when the fig came out his star had completely fallen.

Welp, I opened my second Defining moments Punk and the QC is the worst I’ve seen on any figure in any line. I took the shirt off and the chest tattoo faintly smeared downwards almost as if they put the shirt on too early. There’s light red paint smear on the trunks which doesn’t make sense because there’s no red on the figure. The upper torso feels like it’s ready to fall apart at any moment too. Like the seam leading up to the neck joint is cracked on both sides. If this is any indication for the future of Mattel figures, we’re in for bad times :/.

Both of these are great figures. Warrior’s new boot mold is fantastic. His drop down hips are tight so it’s not easy to do and unless I’m not trying hard enough, Shango does not have the drop down hips. I’ve pulled to the point where I thought they’d break if I tugged more and they didn’t move. Fine with me though.
