To me, this falls directly on Mattel’s marketing, OR RATHER, THE LACK OF MARKETING THIS THING HAD AT ALL. You aren’t going to get people to drop $400 in the final hours advertising it on SD after you realized your marketing flowchart for the past couple weeks was a disaster. You announce the stage during WM weekend and DON’T promote it during the actual show over two nights? I was absolutely stunned they didn’t do that and realized real quick this thing was in trouble. I love Steve, but dude can make any excuse he wants, this falls on him and his team. Total lack of competence. I wouldn't blame Steve - he's the one guy who's been working his @$$ off. But if this fails to get backed, it's definitely on Mattel... it's been handled terribly since day 1.

I'm interested in knowing how many attitude rings with Kane have been purchased. That would be good data to see how many people are buying the larger items. I would think most that have the ring would want the stage to go with. You can't get good data though when you have a ring and potential stage that doesn't go together. Really nonsensical move on their part. I know they wanted the Nitro stage first to decrease the price of the RAW stage, but really no point in the Kane ring to come first. It's a shame they didn't do the Nitro ring first so they could gauge from that how many may want the Nitro stage. If they were waiting to get Bishoff for it they could have easily thrown in a different figure instead of waiting.

Hey, I just thought of something.
THEY SHOULD JUST INCLUDE ALL FIVE FIGURES.
It could work guys. Totally. Seriously.
And I don’t want logic or reason or financial breakdowns about how it doesn’t work.
Include them all or this is Mattel’s fault!

If someone did but 1000 of them right now, they own basically 20% of all produced. Would do alright on the secondary market I think. Lol!!!!

I won't back the Raw is War stage of it ever goes live, I won't back an Ultimate Hell in a Cell if it goes live... I'll only fund a real scale chamber if it's less than $300

its weird watching it still tick up 1 by 1. All youre doing at this point is tying up your money in a pending charge.
