YouTube is absolute garbage now. It's all click bait and reaction videos. I remember watching most of WCW 1998 at one point there. Anyways, I've been trying to see if I find Scotty wearing that specific singlet with just the star on it and the goatee. He wore the plain singlet at first with no design, then some kind of airbrushed variations with BIG POPPA PUMP in the back or Superstar written in front. If anyone finds anything, quote me or update with a link. I love looking up stuff like this. My Peacock isn't working because I'm on vacation, so I'm resorting to Dailymotion for the reference videos. There is a YouTube series called Reliving the War. Reviews every Raw and Nitro head to head and picks who he feels won that week. I believe he is right in the middle of the Pump and Rick feud where Buff just came back from injury. Should be around the time when Scott started wearing the biker shorts so all of his singlet looks should be accounted for. At least his Nitro and PPV looks as he doesn’t cover Thunder unless something important happens there and it’s recapped on Nitro. youtube.com/@wrestlingbios

For those wondering, it is cheaper to have it shipped to the border if you’re in Canada. I use Crossborderpickups, all you have to pay is the tax plus a $15 fee, which ends up being less than they’re charging without the tax. Plus you don’t have to pay those until they show up at the border, as opposed to having to pay up front.

doctorwhofan would most definitely call this stage "fantastic" and "neat" and maybe even "cute" That's exactly how I describe you 🥹

If people don’t back the stage now, they never were going to. The fact it’s only gone up 30 backers after the announcement isn’t good either. I love the idea, backed the project and want the crowdfund to succeed, but I don’t know if this can be saved. I used to work in marketing and saw a cut sheet from WWE on who their clientele is. Let’s just say $400 is waaaaaaaay out of range for the vast majority of their fans and even the hardcore collectors.

Yeah, gimme plain white instead of some made up look. it's not made up. someone posted the photo of him wearing the singlet with the star in this very thread. maybe it's incomplete but it's not made up. and even then, this is an early prototype and it's possible they add more deco.

What would shipping for a package that size from the US to Canada cost approximately? Any way it would be cheaper to have someone in the US receive a Canadian order and mail it to the actual buyer? Would that be just the conversion rate difference plus the shipping it up north and not the extra taxes/tariffs? I mean you could just try ordering it on the US website, then getting it shipped to a parcel pick up service on the US-side. Then cross the border, pick it up, and hope you don't get asked by the CBSA to declare it lol.

Don’t even bother engaging these people. They’re just gonna complain to complain no matter what Mattel does to fix this.

I think we'll just have to keep making noise so Scotty gets that detail on his singlet. I'd like to see the caricature and BIG POPPA PUMP airbrush on the back. The boot thing is annoying too. There's really no reason for Mattel to skimp out on this detail. The lack of sculpt detail on his biker trunks is probably my biggest gripe. Hopefully, Bill changes this as it's not in Steve's hands.

The render didn’t have anything but the single star so I doubt anything gets added to it. He never wore a singlet with just the star to the best of my knowledge. So yeah, I’d much rather have a plain white singlet that he actually wore than a compromised version that resembles nothing that he ever wore. Especially on an UE where there should be no excuses why deco was left out other than copyright issues.

Let’s just say $400 is waaaaaaaay out of range for the vast majority of their fans and even the hardcore collectors. The same people that complain about the price will easily drop this much on all the figures that were announced at axcess. This thing is over a year away. Maybe just me and I may sound inconsiderate, but I feel I could easily not spend $35 each month on stuff like coffee, junk food, beer just to make up the cost of the money you spend on this.
