Could be the dual Raw and Nitro stage. Can't see the $400 price tag unless the stage comes with a ring or the whole announcers table set up or something. When you think of Nitro it is Hogan Hall Nash Goldberg and Sting. Yes Macho DDP Rey Eddie were all part of it, but those names didn't have the same impact.

I am interested to see the reveal but I will probably be passing on this. I just don’t have the room to display any more large wrestling items. I already have an arena setup that I am happy with.

I'm kind of already preparing myself to be underwhelmed by the figure reveals but this whole potential entrance stage/ring thing has me pretty excited. I still would prefer the older WCW ring with the yellow/blue turnbuckles and yellow crosshair canvas logo but I know that's probably a no go at this point based on the era of the Monday Night Wars.

The raw ring seems to have sold pretty well. I wouldn't be surprised if a WCW ring (with another Ultimate - probably Scott Steiner) is released in the fall/winter regardless if the WCW stage is funded. If anything, ring skirts could be a tier (for a WCW event like War Games, Starcade, Halloween Havoc), but I don't think a ring will be included.
I also don't think they will do a 2 in 1 stage. If they include the Raw stage (as an add on or included in the initial offering), I think they will give us everything we need to build both stages. It seems like some of the parts could be used for both so the more you produce, the lower the costs once you hit certain quantities at the factory.

Only on WF do a bunch of guys who will possibly get a WCW Nitro Set ... want it to convert into a RAW set and come with WWE figures.

Mattel is not making Vince McMahon figures in 2023 …but a ‘Mr McMahon’ is good, surely? It’s a massive need, the faces on extra heads they could do would be top drawer. I feel like some of you don’t read the things you post here before you hit send |

It seems like some of the parts could be used for both so the more you produce, the lower the costs once you hit certain quantities at the factory. I don't know, maybe they're going after the people who bought the New Gen ring and the RAW ring and are still asking for a Smackdown ring and a WCW ring. I mean I'd probably but them but personally, I'd be content with more skirts, turnbuckles, canvases, ring steps and ropes so we can configure our own rings with our existing New Gen (blue steel) and RAW (black steel) rings but I don't think they'll go that route but I'd be happy in this case to be wrong. There's just probably not an easy way to predict if there are more people who already own a ring who would buy in only if they didn't have to buy another ring vs. the people who either don't already have a ring but would want one if it was a WCW ring + people who already have a ring but would buy more rings. Naturally, the people who don't want a ring at all and never will won't buy in for ring skirts and ropes so they don't need to be factored in. |

if its both stages in 1 set.. the price tag will be north of 500.. then most likely not getting backed.
also doubt they do another ring.. the molds were already funded last time. They would then release a WCW ring, as they did w/ the Raw one on Ringside
Its going to be something like.. Ultimate xpac/Syxx or Eric Bischoff (NWO versions - early bird) and Nash/Hall Ultimates .. w/ WCW conversion items for ring... and WCW entrance setup (lights up..ect) - price tag around.. $400-500

I think the Raw is War stage would be more expensive than the Nitro stage due to the fact the titantron is big. I'm not surprised that Mattel went the way of the Nitro stage 1st to test the waters if something pricey will sell through Mattel creations. My personal preference would have been the Raw Is War stage but with something this big I have no space to display it so I won't be getting it either way.

I don’t know why everyone thinks it will be a 2 in 1 Raw and Nitro set. Prices have slowly been on the rise so I can see this set being 3-350 for just the Nitro bundle.
Give us
Nitro entrance shown at this years show
- high rise announcers set
- UE DDP in jeans with black diamond cutter shirt
- UE 98 Booker T
- early bird UE 99 Ric Flair or UE 99 Roddy Piper
Tier 1 - ropes, nitro ring skirt, nitro turnbuckles and nitro ring mat
Tier 2- bash at the beach and Halloween havoc ring skirts

I’m happy to pay big money for a 2 in 1 or a reasonable amount for just one.
My worry is it’s crazy money just for nitro, when we don’t have a matching ring, each big set seems to be a year apart and we aren’t exactly getting many new wcw characters these days.
Excited, but also wish they would theme a bit better. Raw stage after raw ring makes so much sense, nitro stage after raw ring not so much.

the know-it-alls already ruining the fun...i'm shocked No, the "know it alls" are the ones preventing silly rumors started here from moving across the internet as fact. I'm already seeing various YouTubers making videos saying that a dual WCW/WWE entrance stage is what we're getting. |
