They did the “now it’s down to you” on the crowd fund livestream Exactly what I had in mind when I made that post. Oh well. At the end of the day, Mattel made those choices. We didn't. They also chose to make it the scale that it is. And they also chose the order of figures. I remember them saying they wanted to release a stage like this but not at the scale that was shown at sdcc. What do they do? Make it exactly the same. Just like the raw stage. IT DONT NEED TO BE THAT DAMN BIG. PERIOD. Nobody asked for over 100 LEDs. No one asked for another Hogan, or rey. We did ask for ultimate DDP in jeans not the one they offered that's been released twice as elites. We did ask for Steiner's but they'll be more if they aren't canceled. I only wanted warrior for the jean boot mold for a potential HBK SS 2002. We are choosing to not pay for what THEY want to offer.

2 backers away from being 30% funded. I'm curious to see how Mattel addresses the fans when this doesn't get funded. Watch them put all of the blame on us and admit no fault in how this was offered, priced and marketed. They don't even need to, plenty of people here are already doing it.

I really want this, but it looks like it’ll wind up being the stage & Rey. It’s a lot of money for me personally so I’m having a hard time justifying it for just the stage and Rey. If everything was included (even hogan) then I would of ordered already. Everything looks really great though, definitely would be a center piece of the collection.

I really want to back this but yet ANOTHER boring Hogan and Rey isn't going to entice myself and many others. Mattel should really pivot and replace those two with Steiner and DDP. Thats the way 👍

Just finished watching the crowdfund Livestream and I really Want this. A lot of people still seem focused on the figs, but let's not forget it's about the stage the stage!!

Seems like my Honey extension has no offers or cashback. Guess I'm funding the stage tonight. At this point I'd rather get the included Hogan.

I know they have been busy with WrestleMania week and have their jobs and personal lives but I am surprised they haven’t scheduled appearances on podcasts over the next couple days trying to push this to 5K before the end of Friday.

Mattel called our bluff, back when they showed this stage at SDCC so many people were enamored with it and demanded it be made. That Mattel made it. Now we have a chance to own this amazing stage. You have a chance to put up or shut up y'all shut up way to quick.
For everyone who bought the stage thank you.
For everyone one on the fence just do it it likely won't get funded at this rate and if you don't now we likely won't get Hogan by the time you make up your mind.
And if you have no plans. No need to explain yourself. Just know you're missing out and I consider you rethink it.

If we don’t get hogan I’m not funding. I’ll be making my decision on the last day to purchase

I want the DDP and Steiner ultimates from this lot the most. No way they are hitting the numbers to unlock them so not bothering to submit an order. If those 2 were the 5,000 goal instead of Hogan and Rey id bet this would be much closer to being funded.

I'm funding this tonight. I didn't care for Hogan originally, but I figured if I'm going in might as well. Wish Mattel gave the Hogan to the first 5k instead. Regardless, we'll see what happens.

Maybe Mattel should have included the most desirable figure(s) from the start instead of forcing more of the same on the backers.

Yeah, this thing would've funded already if Steiner was at 5k.

If only there were already a thread this could have been posted in regarding this exact subject.
