Will they be like Hasbro and charge at the end when it’s fully funded or are they going to charge up front?

Unfortunately being a huge WCW and Rey collector I am in for this however with very mixed feelings.
The Hogan and Warrior are not to my taste. As others mentioned a singles booker would have been great but to me not doing an All black ultimate WCW Bret is a bigger miss. The elite one they did was full of mistakes but this would have been a perfect slot to rectify.
On the other hand, the stage itself is outstanding. Scott Steiner looks awesome and I really hope enough people back it to unlock him. Personally I am not too sure.
My last thought is a ring conversion kit would have been a better option than another figure. Maybe they're going to drop a ring with an exclusive figure. Who knows.
Overall I'm more excited for this than the new gen arena and I bought that.

So 5 UEs which are around 38 each so the stage gobbles up around 230 or so.

Oh yeah it's a purchase from me. I always wanted that WCW stage and this looks so good. The figures looks good specifically Scott, DDP, Rey Mysterio, and Ultimate Warrior. The Hulk Hogan I know people been wanting a WCW Hulk, but they should have gone something a bit more Iconic for the early bird. It's not a 2 in 1 but I am definitely not disappointed. I hope this gets funded and all the tiers gets unlocked 🔓.

This is a flop. Where are Booker T, Macho 99 or Bret Hart 98? Hogan is a scam, Rey is identical to Elite 100 (but with UE articulation)..535 Euros plus shipping, what a joke by Mattel.
So considering 33$ for 5 figures, you tell me that stage costs 235 bucks? LOL

Im in. Will make a good top-shelf display. It looks like its got a whole year to back. Its only theyre second real crowd funder so its all learning lessons at this point. Ill be interested to see how it goes. Hulk and Rey are kinda boring choices. Was hoping for jrans DDP. Mostly excited for warrior and Steiner. But the stage is awesome, i'll find a spot for it somewhere. But what im really looking forward to is all the people that will rage so hard in arguments in this thread that they will delete their profiles (only to come back later even though they will say they are done with it all), for jack to have to clean it up over and over, warnings about it, and childish name calling that wfigs always guarantees in a major announcement like this... I wish it had a full year, it may take that long. Looks to be a typo. I think it has till may 5th 2023 Oof i think youre right. Gonna be hard pressed to get that warrior in such short time.

If they really want to sell this, they need to put this thing on display for their Mania walk through display. The largest, pure wrestling fan exposure possible AND plenty of kids to see it. Doesn’t matter if they watched during the era or not, it’s a great looking piece that Amy kid would love having - collectors too.

I don’t think the price is bad for what’s included. I’d rather another crack at the first Warrior Ultimate than this and the Amazon Hogan Ultimate is very similar to this one. I’m just not a stage and ring collector, so I’m probably out on this. I didn’t seem like resale value held up on the last one, or else I’d buy and just sell the stage.

I wish they gave people more of a heads up to when this is going up, saying you’ve got a week and half to find $400+ is really annoying, even with pay in 4 methods, not to mention being an international customer this is gonna cost me upwards of $700 because of currency exchange

I’ll begrudgingly back just for the figures. All other company’s crowdfunds I back (including Mattel MOTU) is for the actual item and the bonus tiers are just that- bonuses. Mattel WWE is just the opposite. They know they need the figures to hit their mark- figures they could release anyway. Idk pretty annoying.

I think this is 100% get funded At 5k. I don’t know if it gets to 5k by the early backer date, so I don’t know if Hogan gets made. I hope it gets to 7k so I get that DDP. The 9k for Steiner will be a stretch but I think the demand for his first figure is there. The 11k Warrior probably won’t see the light of day and I won’t be too upset about it. Sucks for those who want that figure though.
So realistically, might be dropping $400 for a Rey and hopefully a DDP. Maybe a Hogan too.

I kinda hope they restrategize like they did last time, so the Warrior has a better chance of being made. But I don’t think they’ll be able to since they already announced Hogan as the early bird. Can’t go and change the tiers around after people have already ordered. But the Hogan should honestly just be tossed, with the Warrior tier being 9K instead of 11k.

Looks very cool and I hope we get to the highest tier. I would love to be able to buy 2, but I'm sure this is a limit of 1 purchase if I want to keep my wife happy.

I just don’t get it
The new gen arena only got backed because they chose a highly detailed, iconic attire that we wouldn’t have otherwise ever got.
They followed it up with a plain yellow trunks Hulk I can buy on Amazon for $30 right now with the sole difference being a different facial expression.

Just noticed something, the early bird backing bonus is ONLY good (based on their wording) if it hits 5k backers between the opening of campaign and April 7th…
So no guarantee on that early bird bonus even… I get what they’re trying to do but dang, that’s rough.
I’ll get 2 or 3 and hope it fully funds.
