I only see Hogan, Andre,Savage,Hart, Piper and Warrior as anchors, imo. Jesse The Body Ventura? Yeah, but Jakob “the Snakob” is an anchor so I feel it further justifies my list.

I hope Piper has red trunks underneath. Yeah, i hope so too. But, the blue trim on his socks makes me think they're going to go with blue trunks & kneepads like they did for entrance greats and hof pipers.

Would be a cool little nod if Steele came with a bit of turnbuckle fluff 😅 I just watched Kyle Peterson's walk through video and he did mention that the Mattel team said Steele was coming with a turnbuckle.

He wore blue trim socks with the red trunks too, so you never know. Looks like it will be blue afterall, unless they happen to change it from what was shown during the panel.

Yeah this is disappointing, I was hoping they would go red trunks and kneepads. I hope they change this but I doubt it. Wave 3 and we are already moving away from LJN attires.

Looks like it will be blue trunks, you can see the blue knee pads, doubt they would do blue knee pads and red trunks.

He wore blue trim socks with the red trunks too, so you never know. But the knee pads are blue also. So I think he’s in blue trunks. Now the more important question for me is when does Mattel need my money for it?

Maybe red trunks Piper will be a chase?

I'll still be buying, but I'm very surprised if Piper doesn't have the red trunks....
They've maintained from the beginning that this line is supposed to be true to the LJN's.....

Easier to sell this than an old one out of the package.

I love these. Looks like piper will be in blue, unless they did blue kneepads with red trunks, but that wouldn’t make any sense.
The Steele fig might be the closest representation of what his body shape was from any of his previous figs.

I’m only slightly disappointed that this comes in blue. It would be more true to the original if it was red. But I still have hope that one day we will see Piper in the red Rod Awakening attire.
