that's absolutely not how this works...at all... The Stage + Rey is $400...so the stage alone is ~$365-$370 The other figures are added as bonuses as more or sold The 400 can be broken down anyway the consumer wants. The stage itself might be 365 but if all the figure goals were reached the stage comes out to 250 in the consumer eyes. Also I wouldn't say the stage is 370 personally because Mattel is not giving us the figures free. From how cooperation work it makes more sense Mattel is making a bigger profit and the more unlocks balances out the extra figures. No, lol |

This thread almost feels like the AMC/GME debacle. I'm still glad I was a backer. Hopefully, we get our stage. My Sting, Harlem Heat, Bret and Berg need a stage for their display.

Well it's hitting 2,000 tonight/soon. I think 28 days is enough for it to at least hit 5k, but it's almost certainly coming down to the wire again.
I wonder how much those Nitro banners cost out of the $400? I really don't think anyone would care if those were absent from the set.

This reminds so much of the HasLab Ghost Rider. It plateaued at a pretty early point and Hasbro just didn’t bother with anymore promotion.
I really thought we’d be at 3K. Late last year, Mattel got the huge MOTU Eternia funded. That was a $550 item and it got 9,291 backers. There was only one figure, no LED functionality and a huge size. I don’t know if it had similar international issues, but it shows it can be done.

I'm curious to know if it comes with the crowd backdrop like the New Gen arena. Also, interested in the packaging too. I never keep packaging. If it's cool then I'll most likely keep it. |

One reason why I hate these ultimate LJN and the taker Gooker two pack is that packaging of the figure packaging. |

Mattel just needs to extend earlybird Hogan to the end. It doesn't matter if it gets 5k now or 5k to the end. Just include the darn fig for all of us. =/

I just took a look to see if it was closer and just winced. I do hope the stage will end up backed, but what a disappointment to see the early bird flop, to be frank.

Maybe they should have put that Eric Bischoff figure (that's coming with the ring) here instead of Rey... it certainly would have been more of an incentive. And put Rey - or DDP - with the ring... 🤷♂️
I'd have put the denim/debut Scott Hall here too, exclusive to the stage.

Sorta on topic question, did anyone here ever eat at Pastamania or the Vegas WCW cafe?
I went in the WWE Time Square shop / restaurant but I wasn’t into wrestling then so it didn’t mean much.

I wonder how many of us backed up the crowdfund here? I know some came from other sources, but besides this forum I'm not sure there's any other forum or place as vocal as here. We were pushing this damn thing ourselves.

Someone should use that Wolverine meme with picture frame and put that Hulk Hogan figure in it.

Some do judging by some of the comments on this thread. Unfortunate but I'm in it for the stage in the long run. You win some you lose some. |

I’m hoping since it’s looking like Hogan is unlikely that people will back this thing so we don’t lose anymore figures. Especially the DDP and Steiner. Since the hogan is out I wonder if they’ll bump the Ddp up to that slot and then Steiner to 7000 |
