Remembering Bray Wyatt (Mattel WWE Discussion)

Looking back on the Mattel Bray Wyatt figures I’ve collected over the years:

I think the first piece of merch I ever bought of him was a Wyatt Family Sheep Mask from WWE Shop for $2.99 back on May 8, 2015 lol. I’ve still got it in storage. Just one of those goofy merch stand items that reminded me of being a kid in the late ‘90s and having masks of guys like Sting and Kane.

I was playing catch-up on the first set of Wyatt Family Elites when I found them on eBay for $60 on January 21, 2016. Those are still my favorite versions of each. Just a tremendous effort by Mattel for their debut Elites.



Wanted to have an updated Basic of Bray at the time, so I ordered the Battle Pack with ‘Taker when it was on sale from Amazon for $12.59 on March 28, 2016.



An eBay seller threw in a free Basic Bray Wyatt (Signature Series 8, apparently) for some reason or another when I bought a lot of Elite 36 Stardust, Goldust, and the Stardust/Goldust Battle Pack on July 14, 2016.



Scooped up an Elite 36 Wyatt from Ringside for $13.99 on November 25, 2016. Love the apron accessory.



I remember adding the Zombies figure to an Amazon order for $8.46 on November 30, 2016. That was an underrated figure. I’d bet he loved having a figure of himself made to look like that. The jacket fit in so well with his other figures.



Bought the whole set of Mutants - including Wyatt - from TRU’s site on January 12, 2017. They were $12.99 each. Such a weird series, but fun to look back on.



The aforementioned Battle Pack with Harper came from Amazon for $19.99 on July 17, 2017. I love that Wyatt face scan.



Pre-ordered all of Retro Series 6 from Ringside on May 9, 2018. They were like $14.50 each. Was super into Retros then, and I still really like Wyatt’s figure.

The hype for Elite 77 got to me and I ordered it from Amazon for $19.99 on August 20, 2020. Little did we know then how prevalent Fiend figures would become. This was the only Elite version of The Fiend that I thought I needed. Repaints with different color hair and minor differences never really mattered to me - especially once the first Ultimate became available.

Basic 111 was a really solid Basic that I couldn’t wait to get when Amazon had it for $9.99 on August 22, 2020.



Ultimate Edition 7 with the custom title was a must-have purchase from Amazon for $29.99 on January 29, 2021.

I wasn’t crazy about the Elite 85 figure when it was revealed, but I liked the accessories enough to buy it from Amazon for $19.99 on May 24, 2021.

I don’t think I’ve bought a Wyatt figure in two years. Last night, I placed an order with Ringside for the Firefly Funhouse exclusive ($21.99) and the Ultimate Edition Series 12 set of 2 ($25.99) because I legitimately did want them. I was going to finally get them during Black Friday sales this year, but I didn’t want to chance missing out on them at their current prices. Turns out Ringside sold out of them already.

Also, just got a Burnt Fiend Elite from Amazon because it’s too weird to not get at this point. Might not look too out of place considering the Mutant and Zombie figures Mattel made.

I had mental plans of how I would've ran Wyatt in a figure fed. Rework his feuds with Cena and Undertaker to make them more palatable for me. In his absences, Rowan and Harper would have still drug an empty rocking chair to the ring and react as if he were there communicating with them. That's awfully ghoulish now.

Honoring the man's legacy by talking about all of our collections is a fantastic tribute. Nothing wrong with this AT ALL.

Detractors...do you know that action figures are a pretty important part of a wrestler's history and legacy. Talk to ANY past/present/future wrestler and they'll say one of the proudest moments of their career was the first time they saw a figure of themself on a store shelf?

Maybe OP should change the thread title, but other than that, I think having a thread devoted to discussion of the man's extensive and awesome figure collection is pretty ing honorable.

Found an old pic from July 2014 when I just started collecting that summer. My first ever figure was a DB basic, and I thought like many I’d be a mint in box collector, but that fell apart.

Bray up top was the first Elite I opened. I was blown away by the articulation and loved the figure/character. Opened a whole can of worms, but wouldn’t have it any other way. Still have e28 and 1st Fiend Ultimate in box though. Will definitely get the Pitch Black and GH figures.

Some of my favorite figures in sculpt, and timing, were Elite 28 and 29 series of the Wyatt Family. Great figures, with everything we needed from them at the time - Hat, Hawaiian shirt, Lantern, Sheep Mask and Rocking Chair. Perfection. All sold pretty much all at the same time.

Rest in peace Bray Wyatt & Luke Harper/Brodie Lee.

No. I believe e63 was the first set with TrueFX and Brays last Wyatt family figure was e54. The Greatest hits one coming out should have it though.

Edit:basic 95 might have it but can’t tell.

If prices on his figures ever go down again (hoping they do someday) I'm gonna try to turn my little 2-part setup into a full display.

That said, I'm imagining that prices on his figures, the Wyatt Family figures as a whole, and *especially* that Harper/Wyatt 2-Pack are going to be insane on secondary for awhile. Probably have to come back to that concept later.

At least I have the figures I do have.

Bray's first ever elite was my grail, hunted that thing until i found it at target. It was perfect, Hawaiian shirt, hat, good scan. Held off on the Wyatt family basics since I knew it was only a matter of time until the elites came out.

Favorite would have to be elite 54 with the long hair and black attire

As a child I had chills watching the undertaker's ministry of darkness character it looked so real to me... Then after such a long time I really felt that Fiend character. When he first appeared on fire fly Funhouse as fiend I really felt that Bray has summoned a monster. Man he was very creative. I had his sweater look of Bray and UE 7 Fiend and those two figs are really underrated. Bray was one of the few new talent of whom I have figures of.
