What is everyone’s favorite Mattel (or Jakks) stage thus far?
I guess after looking at them all, I’d have to say the Jakks Stage of Rage. Which is odd, considering I never owned it.
Has anyone made one that didn’t have a ramp? It seems every stage/arena I can recall, had a ramp included with it.

I think I liked the early 2000's? Jakks Raw stage. I've owned the '03 Raw stage set they made too and it was ok for what it was. As far as Mattel, I like the New Gen stage. I think Mattel really knocked it out of the park, even though personally I bought it to resell. I'm really excited to see what they can do with a potential Nitro stage.

Probably the New Generation one despite having no use for it.

As simple as it is, it’s probably the RAW letters.

The only stage I ever owned was a TTL Sears exclusive SS stage with Chris Jericho. So I guess that. Although if I owned the Mattel New Generation set it would be that.

I think it was mattel and not sure if it was a uk exclusive or worldwide (it didn’t get a lot of press or mention) was the stage which come with a frame where there was a John Cena picture but that could be swapped out and a tablet put in. I thought that was a great idea for getting titantron videos, Thebes etc playing.
Can’t remember what it was called but it was in b&m (a discount store) here so don’t think it did particularly well

Ultimate entrance stage it was called Most people have a tablet of some kind. I think that’s a great practical way for an entrance with a screen. If they programmed on video / audio etc it round very quickly be out of dated

The 2-in-1 that had the stage and the backside of the stage. With the weird Gorilla position that led to a ladder. Haha That thing also had the weird cracks down the center of the stage/ramp that Mattel has put on most of their stages. Very odd.

Any reason you didn’t get the New Gen set? Money and space. Cost more than I was willing to get into an argument with my wife over. And with everything I collect the lack of space to display it. lol

The only Jakks one I had was the Titan Tron Live one with the Vince McMahon figure. The other Jakks stages I never saw in stores when I was collecting. For Mattel, I have the K-Mart Raw Entrance Stage, the 2-in-1 Ultimate Stage that you could put a tablet in, the New Gen arch, and the RAW letters.
If I had to pick, I would pick the K-Mart Raw Entrance Stage as my favorite. It’s big, has an actual stage, it has a giant video screen, it has scaffolding, there’s a breakaway grate on the stage floor that you can throw wrestlers through, and you can even connect it to the Kmart backstage playset. It’s not in-scale, but it looks so cool and has so much plastic so it feels sturdy. My only complaints are that it’s only Raw themed, the ramp is too short, and the entire playset could stand to be a little wider and a little deeper. If you stand 4 figures on it shoulder-to-shoulder, they swallow that stage up.
The 2-in-1 Ultimate Stage is a great runner up, but I don’t like all the breakaway gimmicks compared to the Raw stage’s lone collapsing floor grate. Instead of breakaway mini-trons, I would’ve preferred if those sections had pieces that flipped around and said Raw or Smackdown on either side. That would’ve fit the 2-in-1 motif better and looked better than the large clear panels the toy actually has.
I’d love to see Mattel make another toy entrance. The most recent one they made I do not like at all. But the real stage WWE currently uses is so bland and ugly.
