how does DDP always get a smiling or open mouth expression did steiner wear the chain mail with this attire? if he did thats a big whiff are the hogan shirts gonna be the same as the legends wcw hulk shirt? i was so relieved. i sold off all my new gen set, sail barge, thundertank, mando ship, sentinel, and unicron. I had so much space.....and now this. I wouldve bought two 5 years ago. but dang why is it so stinking freaking big. Not sure why we haven't gotten a neutral/serious face DDP. It's like the most requested thing here. Hopefully, Mattel can give us the Ultimate Edition jeans DDP I believe Scotty didn't wear the chainmail when he wore this singlet. The chainmail was later on when he had the biker trunks. What I want to know is why most of these figures now all have painted biker trunks rather than sculpted. They have sculpted biker trunks in their inventory. It looks so cheap. He has brand new parts for this figure, why not sculpt the lower half? yesss totally agree the painted tights looks horrific |

Just over 800 backers on a weekday before 5 pm eastern seems pretty good. Probably will get a surge this evening when people get off work and more this weekend. Hopefully it’s funded by Monday. They haven't even shown any of the previews that they have in store for tomorrow. Wrestlemania weekend, plus not having to compete with other SDCC company offerings right now may just do the trick! Plus they’ll have a QR code on the display at the superstore for people in attendance. |

I just backed it, but I am worried that we will not hit Steiner. I definitely do not think we will get Warrior.
If for whatever reason we don't get Hogan, then I think it fails altogether.

Almost 20% funded already! Hard not to get excited about the momentum. No expert on crowd funds but wouldn’t that be expected for day 1? It’s the subsequent days that would likely crawl. |

They’ve essentially killed the international market by not offering the PayPal pay in 4 option, most places have to pay $600-$650 for this and coming up with that money in the time frame is impossible for most people

This needs to get at least to 1,500 before I wake up tomorrow to even have a chance at 5,000 by April 7.
And even then it’s still gonna be tough

Maybe they can drop the tier expectations at some point.
6,000/8,000/10,000 would be cool…or 6,000/7,500/9,000 even better

A serious goof would be limited WCW representation at the Mattel showing.

The products Sideshow are selling aren’t crowdfunds though. They have long lead times though that can make flex pay work nicely. Most Hot Toys figures for instance aren’t coming out for 9-12 months plus from the time they get listed. Of course they are not crowdfunded, but the lead time is similar...I'm simply wondering if it was presented as a $33.33 monthly payment from this June to next June, how many people might be more willing to bit the bullet instead of taking that $400 charge 12 months from now they take the bullet as soon as its backed / goes into production.. not 12 months from now |

This may be a given, but I really hope Mattel is smart enough to run a commercial for the crowdfund during both nights of WrestleMania.

Yeah I think this is DOA and maybe unsalvageable. Mattel killed the international market and the winds gone out the sales. And there’s no ace up the sleeve

April 7th will be fun to watch. |
