If you don’t want this item or you arnt getting this item because you have an issue with the figures or can’t justify the price. Why are you coming in this thread everyday and commenting I know it’s a place to discuss action figures but you’ve said you arnt getting it, you’ve stated why multiple times, at this point you are just coming in here to dump on everything and ruining everyone else’s excitement for this set…..move on. Not towards anyone specifically but this is the most toxic thread I have ever been apart of because of these people. In the end, either way, the numbers will speak loudly to Mattel

I think some solid discussion points have been brought up throughout this thread, like the international shipping mess.

You've discovered us, the Secret Brotherhood of Nitro Hatred! How ever shall we exact our plans to ruin the crowdfund now that we've been outed?!?! Our master, Hasbro, will be none too pleased to know the mission has been compromised.

I honestly don’t see why people want that Scott Steiner figure. It doesn’t appear to be accurate at all. Did he ever just have a plain star on his singlet with nothing else? I always recall him just wearing a plain white singlet at first and then a few weeks later had the airbrush designs. But it was his face inside the star with Superstar over it, Big Poppa Pump on the back, and Superman symbols on the sides. I get they can’t do Superman but there’s no excuse not to include the other designs. And the facial hair is wrong as well. Should be blonde in the middle and dark streaks on each side. I would probably rather wait for a better version to come out even if it’s an elite. man thats a great observation. wrong head, plain deco and all it comes with is a US belt and sunglasses. they could have just put an S on either side of the singlet, even if it wasnt the actual superman logo it would have helped. i think everyone is just like "OMG Steiner's first figure!" and the new bicep mold (which clearly means they are going to make more because they aren't spending tooling on something without getting their money's worth) I think they've said that this is a figure to match the old WCW Toy Biz figure that came out in 1998/99. Not necessarily an exact replica of what Steiner wore at the time. Though, looking at the figure, he should at least have the short boots since they were on the old figure. With that being said, I do hope we at least get an elite in one of these similar attires:

Honestly this is another one of my holdups with backing this product. Why would I want a Scott Steiner figure in an attire that he has never worn? Steiner really is the only figure in all of the offerings that I would have any interest in but I know that it is a figure that I would be replacing in my display as soon as they make a different one. I understand it is tricky cause at the same time if they offered an awesome figure behind a $400 paywall then that may upset people as well. But at least do an obscure outfit that he has actually worn before. So it is a stage I have no room for and a figure I won't be displaying. It does suck though cause that stage is a thing of beauty and worth the $400 alone

He reminds me of a bootleg figure tbh.

With that being said, I do hope we at least get an elite in one of these similar attires: I've been pointing out some of these flaws for a while. Especially the fact that he doesn't he even fine with sculpted biker trunks. They're just cheaply painted on. Steve said he doesn't know if the design team will sculpt them. There was another ring figure that they could of based Scotty from that bad deco. No reason for him not to have the Scotty head on the star and deco on the back of the singlet with Austin styled boots. If we make enough noise, they might hear us out.

I woulda been happy if they went with a plain white singlet he wore when he first turned and the correct color pattern of the goatee. Like if they can’t do the airbrushed singlet properly then just make it plain.

I love that they're on the cusp of moving Steiner into the base offering, on the back of overwhelming demand, and now everyone is like "nah frick that (AJ Styles LOL), that figure sucks". But yeah, the people who were out on this right from the start are the problem.

I’ve been trying to ignore it but it’s getting annoying. Some discussion has been good, but until it’s adressed by Steve or Mattel what’s the point in going on about it. I don’t know maybe dm any number of mattel employees that are around? They’re aware and are working to do what they can. If you’re annoyed you can’t get it that’s fine but the Debbie downers need to find a new hobby.

It's the people who have been cheerleading it lol.

The longer this thread goes on the more I think of this comment lol. I'd say we are firmly in the (literal) bargaining phase with a few still in the anger phase. Now we get see what happens when the bargaining actually works, who would have guessed being unhappy with what you bargained for would be the next phase.
