Sad to see momentum slowing -- I hope it gets made. Also, I wonder how much Hogan was paid to make that video!

Alright, which one of you guys paid the Hulkster to do this??? And why did he say "Hasbro Creations"?

Awesome, some industry promotion from the man himself! This is what we need! People with twitter please tweet the crowdfund link to more ex-WCW talents, staff, and current industry people, most of them will have lots of relevant followers. I tweeted the link to Disco Inferno and he just called me a dumb mark. Is that for true? If so then Gilbertti is a dong

Well the false hope was fun while it lasted. The spikes really suckered me into believing but it's barely moving today. Extremely disappointed 😞

I don’t care what you all think, sometimes when I hear Hogan go full Hulkster and cut a promo, I still feel a swell in my chest and goosebumps. I need to lose a significant amount of weight and if I had Hulk there cutting promos encouraging me, I swear I’d look like an Adonis (and not Adrian) in a year.

Would Ringside even really have to pay upfront to Mattel if they ordered say 1000 of these? Mattel does business with them already they don’t need the funds to get these thing going. Couldn’t RSC just agree to pay for these when they get them. That way RSC doesn’t have to have all that money held up a year. They could pre order these and start recouping some of the money before they’re in house…..and at the end of the day Mattel gets their money and the money of all the ppl who have backed this. It seems like perfect business sense to me.

If our stage gets funded, I expect a mark up in our WCW figures. People better hurry up and purchase the guys they've been wanting for a while. On another note, why the hell is the best of elite Bam Bam $40? I never even saw that figure online for retail... I low-key wanted it to convert it into a WCW version. It was £15/$21 when I bought it locally here in the UK about 3 weeks ago. So it's a mixed bag. I did that WCW conversion by swapping the head and boots from the Legends 9 figure.

I'm going to make a prediction that if this hits around 4,200 by this point tomorrow, the whole thing will get funded. Purely out of momentum and positive optics for the FOMOs.

A 1000? What would they do with 1000 of these? We are barely cracking 5000 now and that is at the regular price. Imagine the RSC markup...

It seems like perfect business sense to me. I would think Ringside would be skeptical on how many of the stages alone they could re-sell. I'm sure they could re-sell the figures and make a good markup on them - but not sure how many of the stages people will want to buy at that point in an amount that will give Ringside some ROI.

Yes ringside would have to pay upfront, the funds from all consumers go directly towards production.

If there’s any type of promotion during Smackdown, there will be another spike.
