I remain stunned by all the hate on here. This thing looks amazing, the stuff I dream about as an adult wrestling figure collector. Instant purchase for me (with a totally reasonable payment plan).

I love the set. My only gripes are that Steiner's goatee is inaccurate and DDP's attire choice is lame...Why not go for the jeans and rib tape that everyone has been clamoring for?
Also, it seems a set like this is an opportunity to get a more obscure guy out as an Ultimate, who wouldn't make it in the regular line (like Doink was in the New Gen set). I guess that could be said about the Warrior in jeans, and while I love that choice, a lower card guy (or non-wrestler like Bischoff) would've been nice.
And why not include parts for a Nitro ring? I hope that's not a separately released ring, because I'm not going to feel like dropping another hundred plus after already spending so much on the arena.

I just measured my display area. This thing is massive. My average shelf is 36 inches wide. This is also tall. So it's definitely top shelf material. I see some great suggestions to who should come with the set. I surely feel the announcers and desk should be there. At least Bischoff and The Brain. I'm currently undecided. imgur.com/a/WuU92

I want this so bad, but I canât afford to shell out $400 right now. Thatâs heartbreaking.

The figures by themselves at $45 (the price of Cody and Logan Paul) would be $225 $400 for the entire thing with all 5 figures unlocked is a good price for what you get, in this capitalist downward spiral known as 2023 Even as someone not backing this, financially I agree. If all the tiers are hit (or honestly if the tiers up to Steiner are hit) it's more than worth its value.

This is where Mattel should open up a little more and have a fan choice crowd fund. First option A Attitude Era stage or option B wcw stage. Then whoever wins that give us options of what we want included and the top 5 get put into tiers. Once again a free think take for them. Them keeping things so secretive blew up in their face but itâll be out fault because we didnât back it.

Wait⊠so if they hit 5,000 before the early backer deadline Hogan is unlocked for all backers? So if you back at the last minute you get Hogan too if the 5k is met? Pretty sure you only get Hogan if you back it during the early bird phase. Anyone after that doesn't get him. It's a way to get more people in at the start which will then get more people who are on the fence to join or waiting for higher numbers. There are always people who won't join until some or all tiers are guaranteed.

Thatâs what I thought but it reads âeveryoneâ which is kinda mute since the whole point is to back before the early deadline ends to receive the early special

Also, Early bird Hogan is only available until april 7. That is only 2 weeks away and its not even up for sale yet. That date will give us the indication if this will be funded or even have a chance for the stretch goals. Can not believe this thing will still be going on for a month after the early bird expires Everyone gets Hogan if it hits 5000 by April 7th

I paid $500+ for two of the new gen arenas and they both are still in their boxes. This nitro stage is an easy sale at $400 and itâll probably stay in the box until I put an addition on my house to fit it.
Now I need to sell off the new gen sets so my nitro stage can replace them in storage and maybe my wife will never know lol

Didnât always work. Like when we got a fourth release of WM6 Warrior over new attires. Non collectors vote and just vote for the most âiconicâ choice

I personally think a WCW âjeans and dusterâ Warrior wouldâve been a nice addition to the Legends line, and the Suit Warrior couldâve been a BAF.
