I wonder if they could do a cheaper version of the stage in the future as a Ringside exclusive? Get rid of the lights and cheapen some of the materials. Hell  ing no. I want all the perks, lights, nooks and crannies. I'd rather get nothing if it's going to be a half assed version, we waited too damn long for this. On another note, I cannot wait any longer for my Nitro stage baby. Something is better than nothing as far as Iโm concerned. As much as Iโd like this version, itโs not going to happen. |

If Mattel did that, they wouldnโt make money. yes they would lol If Mattel could hit the profit margins they need to make production viable by offering all the figures at the first tier, there's no way they wouldn't have done so. I know that the whole "how crowdfunds work" thing has become a board meme at this point, but seriously it's how this works. |

There's definitely been some solid movement the last several hours. I hope it gets it over the finish line.

I know that the whole "how crowdfunds work" thing has become a board meme at this point, but seriously it's how this works. Serious question. Do you think if at the start, they said โyou get everything and all the figures, but it has to reach 9,000. one unit less and it doesnโt get madeโ, we would be there? I kinda think we would. I think a lot of people are hesitant because they want to be sure to get all of the figures. |

They have to see that the interest and hype is there If the interest and hype was real we would be counting the surge of backers for the last unlock...not for it to fund in the first place. |

Ahh, I feel for you. That sucks man, I think someone here said they'd hold down some for some people across the pond. I'm not sure if that would save you some money or help break the payment. Some international board members have expressed this issue for them not backing a couple times or so, and given thumbs up to my offers to use my address and recent offers to back via payment plan on my card as a middle man. Not one of those ๐ have said theyโd like to discuss or messaged to try and sort out detailsโฆ but they have posted after those times and said they arenโt backing cause of those same issues No disrespect, my man (very good of you to offer ๐) - but it's still a lot of hassle and very risky (on both ends), given the time period involved, the currency rates and shipping costs etc. And at the end of the day, you shouldn't have to offer. Mattel are a multi-billion dollar company - and they can't fix this issue? They're losing out on hundreds - or even thousands - of sets being backed, and seem reluctant to change it (ie. just do it the same way as before/the New Gen set). This thing might have been backed already. |

Needs to crack 4K with 2+ hours to go, then the FOMO will kick in for the fence sitters. Itโs the only chance itโs got. Unless RSC or another online retailer put a 200, 300 or 500 item order.
Hope it makes it.

I agree. I know many people that don't watch the weekly shows and only read reviews of what happened. They only watch the premium live events. Personally, I usually read the reviews weekly and try to binge watch all the weekly shows the week of the premium live event if I have the time. It's weird to end on a Friday night. Most weekly ads run through the weekend. I know you've had multiple weeks, but for some workers out there that just got paid today they could easily have forgotten about it, have other stuff going on, and would have needed the entire weekend to finally pull the trigger and put an order in. I have multiple friends still not used to having events on Saturdays and wait to do everything Sunday night. WWE charges for air time for ads, even for their licensing partners. Itโs a nice little scam theyโve got going on. Thatโs why the only licensed product they advertise most of the time is WWE Supercard despite it being like 10 years old. They could have the New Day or somebody be playing with it for 15 seconds in the backstage area just like they used to do with advertising wweshop. I would think they'd make more money if it succeeds than if it doesn't. Foolish on them to want to throw money away because they won't allocate 15-30 seconds of time during a show for free. The time could be equivalent to cutting someone's entrance. |

Especially the first WCW Bischoff or WCW debut Hall. For sure, but you have to admit it would make their launches look like a wet fart, with everyone being like โremember that sweet stage that should have gone with all of thisโ |

Too be honest
I went to Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and havenโt checked any of this out for like 4 hours.
I was half way already excited to check out Mattel Creations and see this thing pumping itโs way to DDP
