I think it’s a stage of some kind. Maybe a cage along with it but the cage isn’t going to be the main selling point. It will never reach backing. A lot of people bought multiple new gen arenas to sell or to support the line. The same people won’t need the cage as they don’t display them. A new stage will get people to buy multiple again imo.

AFA's definition of this being announced "imminently" must be different to my understanding of imminent. Anyone else checking instagram and here religiously for an announcement?

If they’re saying it’s gonna be more expensive than $250, I don’t see anything other than 1 or both stages being the crowd funded project with one of the stages being the main selling point with the other likely being the final stage of it. And that’s likely going to be over $500

I just hope the reason it’s more expensive is clear just by looking at the product. I don’t want Mattel going all Super7 blaming the price on extra deco hits

And that’s likely going to be over $500 My thoughts exactly. I cannot see it being an elimination chamber only because Jakks did a scale version and it was not even a crowdfund. $500 is the price point I would expect for a dual stage set fully backed and thats only with say 1 or 2 figures included |

I have a bit of a feeling that they might be using the Edge Vs Balor HIAC to hype up the crowdfunded cell playset.
Of course, I would HATE (!!!!) a red cell playset and it would ultimately probably tank it from being made, but they can still use the hype of the match and everything around it to show off an old silver style cage that fits the RAW ring.
Maybe Steve's "imminent" was dependent on whatever TV they announced the match, which happened to be this past Monday.

If it's red, and contains wrestlers from last 5-8 years, yeah I ain't getting it lol |

Not sure we need ultimate versions of a bunch of suited figures. |

I don't know what's really changed for me between the New Gen arena and this crowdfund, but I'm going to have a hard time spending $250+ on whatever this next thing is. It would have to be really in my wheelhouse for me to consider it. Something like Fighter Hayabusa posted would get me going but if it's even the slightest bit underwhelming, I can't picture myself dropping this much cash on something at this point.

It would alienate way too many potential collectors that would buy it. If they did HIAC it’s guaranteed to be gray. Modern collectors would buy it as would everyone else with maybe the exception of Golden Age only collectors. Red HIAC you’re only getting modern collectors on board. |

Bischoff I’m picturing as a 2 in 1 where you swap out the arms and give him a leather jacket. |

The only reason I mentioned it because I assume they'll have the red cell at WrestleMania but I wouldn't expect a red cell playset if they used the match to hype the playset release. |

I doubt its hell in a cell because they would not have shown the defining moments mankind from his match with taker. They would have saved that to help get it funded |

If it's the Raw stage, I really hope they include a ring conversion kit for anyone who already funded the New Gen arena.
I will 100% pass on a Raw stage that doesn't come with a spare canvas, ring skirts, ropes and turnbuckles to change the New Gen ring into a Raw ring. No way in hell am I paying money for another separate ring.

On of that would match the base of the ring… you may have to bite the bullet or just skip out in the next set because I can almost guarantee it’s not coming with the hypothetical “conversion kit,” I’m not digging through threads but I wanna say it was confirmed it will not have those things because the raw ring is a thing |
