Doesn't Mattel have DC comics rights? Guess not. No Superman logo to be found. McFarlane and Spin Master have it

I agree Scott should be the early backer. If you do back and only get hogan and Rey that would be kinda crazy.

I love WCW, and my main purchases from Mattel for years have been AJ Styles and anyone from WCW. I'm probably going to end up with this because I think that the stage is just freaking awesome.
However...I think they screwed the pooch with these figure choices as far as my own tastes go.
The same DDP we've gotten twice now, just in Ultimate version. This should have been jeans DDP with a serious face, full stop. Rey is cool, but I'd have rather had someone else, honestly. Hogan...Huh? There's a WCW Hogan coming out in the Legends line, and Hollywood has already been released in the Ultimate line, so I can't say this is the best choice for me. Warrior...Unless he comes with a duster, this is really not up my alley. Especially since they've released a WCW in Ultimates 1 already. I can't help but feel they should have just timed Best of Ultimates wave 2 to come out alongside this release and have Warrior and Hogan in it.
Steiner is the pure stand out of the bunch. I'd have rather had 2000s Steiner in shorts and the world title, but this works just as well.
Ideally...I'd have done DDP in jeans, Hall, Nash, Steiner, and then thrown in a left field kind of choice with a Glacier or a Buff Bagwell. Oh well, I guess I'll just stop fantasy booking the toy line now, haha.

This is a steal compared to Hasbro crowdfunds.

Cool for those that want and have the space for it, but the only thing I'm interested in is the Steiner, and there's no way I can justify paying $625 Canadian for him. Kind of gutted right now tbh lol, but I understand it from a business standpoint Absolutely agree. I was anxious as to what this would be due to the price and wanting it. Glad to see this isn't for me as like you said the price tag to Canada is just too much for something thst isn't a huge want for me.

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...

We haven’t gotten a WCW yellow trunks Hogan. Makes perfect sense to me. We have received enough Hogans for a lifetime. IMO - this wasn’t needed. Would have much rather seen Booker T or Eric Bischoff. Hogan moves merch tho. Smart move to have him get people in early and Warrior be the motivator to get people in late.

I think that Rey is really bad tbh. So bland considering so many other cool Rey attires.

Last crowd funder had 8400. Backers just need a few more cordona probably getting 10-100 of them. But we gotta get to 9000 atleast.

With the aftermarket not doing as good as most thought for the new gen set, I don't see this getting funded unfortunately.

Rey & hogan look too similar to figures we’ve already gotten. I probably need Warrior to be unlocked to be sold on this.

400 is a big ask. I struggled with 250 for the whole time until the Macho man. I have stuff around the house that needs to get done and would like to take the family on vacations. I think 400 is tone deaf. Not all of us make matt Cardona money. Yeah, this for me. $250 is kind of my limit with something like this - I love it - but would rather have 2 / 3 less figures and the price come down. The Warrior/ DDP & Steiner would have been enough. Don't think I can drop $400 sadly in the next few weeks.

That stage is insane.
Really torn here, because this is amazing. But last year I sold off 3/4 of my collection and that included all the WCW figures. I was hoping it would have been a two in one but I still might end up backing this.
Was there any mention about accessories being sold to swap the Raw is War ring into a nitro ring?

Yeah I’m afraid I won’t back this. I was never a WCW guy to begin with, and the choice of figures? Meh. ANOTHER Hogan and a Warrior in jeans?!
Scott Steiner is the only cool addition. But yeah, I would have rather seen an attitude era stage set, or Smackdown fist.

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
