Cody Rhodes Mattel Creations

Ordered one today, wish I could’ve gotten 2

I ended up ordering the second one today after ordering 1 the first day they became available. Felt like I might’ve regretted not ordering that second one , but regardless it’s going to suck wait for about a year to get these figures shipped. Was never a fan of ordering stuff that far out because you almost always have to pay upfront.

When does this end? Tomorrow at 3am?

I ordered one just now, I had forgotten about it until I was thinking about it at work last night. Other than to see how it looks compared to the AEW supreme I mostly got it because of FOMO, I’d go as far to say discovering the figure has knee pads and the deco is on them when he should not have them killed a large part of my interest. I feel like most of the things about this line that end up being buzzkillers to me are simply just the complete whack ass part choices. That includes using that same horrible Ryback weightlifting belt for every Hogan; please tell me Cody has a new belt

I’m very intrigued at how a fabric coat is going to turn out and if it will be better than the supreme plastic coat

I feel like these preorder periods should be two weeks long instead of one. I like the concept, I’m just surprised Cody is being placed here when he’s probably one of the few modern wrestlers who would sell well as an Ultimate

Overall, the whole package is good despite the issues I mentioned. This is certainly better than trying to rush to get Slaughter or No Holds Barred SDCC exclusives

First off good job the figure looks amazing. I didn't place an order and here's why.

1) I the price point, I absolutely understand that this is an exclusive and the packaging is amazing, the price is definitely justified, but the price isn't too attractive for me. At this point I have 431 Mattel WWE figures, so I don't hunt figures anymore as much as I hunt deals.

2) I'm an international collector, meaning shipping would cost me a minimum of $30, so $75 for one figure is a bit much. Now for something like the New Gen arena I did not hesitate, because each figure, ring, and Entrance absorb part of the shipping cost.

3) A competitor has a Cody figure with almost the same accessories + an additional set of tights, giving you 1 ½ figures in one package for the same price.

With all the points mentioned I am not against the idea of made-to-order figures. I would back a 3 or 4 pack of figures that won't have an alternative at retail.

P.S I'm happy to see more WWE representation on Mattel Creations.

I just know I'm gonna regret not getting 2 of these...

Wait a second.... is this the beginning of the "no plastic" packaging?? I see this in hindsight as whats to come for WWE like Hasbro is doing for Marvel.

no this is just an exclusive kinda like how all the ringside exclusives have special packaging

I mean, I think the idea was to A. Try out a lower prince point made to order model with a heavily in-demand figure and B. Get people to drop money on a Cody Ultimate before the AEW Supreme is released.
