The only Nitro stage we'll have, at this point, is the backdrop behind RSC Wolfpac Hogan. The only Raw stage we'll have is the $70 set from Target. Yay. =/

We won't see something of this scale and price offered via crowdfund for a while, if ever. Steve said the Raw stage would be more expensive than this, and we have all seen that it's much bigger as well. You may see smaller sets like the barbershop, Piper's Pit, etc, be made available as non-crowdfund pieces. Maybe RSC exclusives or build-a-stage executions like the Heartbreak Hotel. Steve said I think during his appearance on MDT's YouTube interview that two Nitro stages exist. One will likely be boxed up and put into a warehouse and the other may stay at Mattel HQ in an office somewhere. I don't work for Mattel so I can't speak on their behalf, but if this doesn't fund I don't see this project being offered anytime soon. I don't know why people would want a barbershop, or funeral parlor set. You could easily make those sets for cheap with some online accessories, foam, printouts, 3d printing etc. You just have to be creative. I don't see those sets racking up $250. Kind of puts us in a weird place because now we know people don't want, don't want to spend or have space for big sets. This puts off the chamber, HIAC etc.. I literally said in my post that maybe we would see them as NON-crowdfunds. Steve himself said on one of the recent podcast appearances that smaller things like Pipers Pit might be better executed by not going the crowdfund route. Not sure why you randomly suggested that they would have to be offered as a crowdfund when that wasn't the point of my post lol. |

People have been asking/suggesting for these barbershop/funeral parlor sets as crowdfunds in this thread. Quite recently when people start speaking these things into existence, they start becoming a reality. People have asked for numerous things in the last year and then get pissed when they get what they want. Included examples are Mr.Perfect with removable singlet/cloth singlets, Kurt Angle with cloth singlet etc... It starts becoming a a mob like opinion and Mattel hears us out sometimes. |

Just backed it. The FOMO got to me. If this gets backed, then cool. If it doesn't get backed, then cool. I can save A LOT of money.

Maybe next year Wrestlemania Axxess Mattel can offer a Axxess Exclusive Ultimate. Something more long lines of a repaint but still offer it up to the fans from all over the world. Breaks my heart this crowdfund is failing but complaining and the I told you so ain’t the way to go about it. We learn from mistakes. Plus Wrestlemania weekend people do drop stupid amounts of money at that Superstore. It would be a good gesture for all fans both stateside and international. You could price it out as you wish….it’ll sell

Mattel right now wondering why it needs another 25% to go and why international sales are down 25% from last time

Will be extremely lucky to hit 4000 backers let alone the 5000 backers needed in the time left.

So I just tried to back another. It's probably been stated before, but I'm just now realizing it says they don't take PayPal, Discover, or American Express. Uh, I swear I always use my Discover card for them before because it's what I try to use for my online purchases to keep track better. I tried my Capital One card and it came back not allowing the 4 interest free payments. So you can only pay Visa or Mastercard? No wonder people can't order the thing. What a disaster.

They have over 1.5 million ready to be charged. I honestly could see them just adding 1000 to the total in the last minute to get it to 5000. Has anyone ever thought that Mattel could take 1000 of these and break them up and sell them individually on MC?
$100 Rey
$100 Steiner
$200 Stage.
I bet they’d sell quick for ppl that only wanted the fig or the stage. Also Mattel wouldn’t lose any money doing this. It’s a win win.

What time tomorrow is the royal rumble for the prototype Nitro stage? I’m hoping to go all Cody and be the last entry.

Was anyone able to get shop pay to show the pay in 12 installments like they advertise ?
I really wanted to back this, but the payment option they show does not appear. I was finally able to see the pay in 4, but no luck with the 12 month plan.
