Don't have the space for the stage and even if I did,I'm just not interested in it and I thought the figures might make me change my mind but none of these are must haves for me. So I'm sitting this one out,unless something gets added later that I gotta have.

I won’t be backing it. I don’t have room to display the stage and the figures chosen don’t interest me that much. The Hogan and Rey figures are so similar to other figures we’ve gotten recently that I probably wouldn’t even buy them individually at retail. I do like the Steiner a lot but I’m sure Mattel will release a more iconic Big Poppa Pump eventually.

Steve just said they’re already pushing their budget That's completely understandable, that stage has got to eat up a bunch of the budget and if you get most of the figs. The value there imo,something added later that i really wanted was just gonna be the only way I would've been enticed to jump in lol.

What if they make a wcw ring with ue figure like Kane but we have no stage to complete it and because this fails the raw stage never gets made so your left with just new gen entrance gate and new gen ring complete thank of the future and how decisions can affect us. ...what if you're just not interested in entrance stages?

I think he's made at least 50 "what ifs" the last couple days lol and I don't think they're changing anyone's minds

Understandable but many on here where begging for a stage I wanted a hell in the cell but the vocal majority wanted a stage they got it but now there like it's too big to expensive I didn't get a suited ue figure x should have been y don't back this make Mattel suffer. Newsflash this doesn't affect Mattel they just won't listen to what people want and instead play it safe with re releases and obligated number releases of Roman Hogan Cena Seth. That's where my argument comes in.

That's where my argument comes in. You shouldn’t be trying to talk people into buying something they don’t want, can’t afford, or don’t have room for. I understand wanting this to get funded because you want crowdfunds for the future or even want this one, but those who have decided they aren’t getting it most likely aren’t changing their minds here. This set isn’t for everyone.

If you don't great but don't sit there and say it's not worth it Mattel sucks wait til the next one ect.

I'm in...hurts to say this, but it's gonna HAVE to hit Hogan and Steiner, or I might cancel. I'm a Warrior guy, so I really want that figure, but I just don't see it 11k at this price point...
The Hogan they picked doesn't really interest me all that much, but the fewer figures we get, the less value this thing has...As cool as the entrance is, $400 for an entrance and a Rey Mysterio Figure is not gonna cut it...
My real concern is that most of the big time collectors I follow on Instagram are either on the fence, or out...these crowd funds are designed to get the die hard collectors to bite, and it's not working at this point. And they have influence over their followers. Them going around saying it's not worth the money is gonna hurt this bad...
Worst part is, this tanks and you can probably kiss a RAW entrance goodbye as well...at the end of the day it's probably just too ambitious, particularly in this global economy. It's too bad it couldn't have ended up being a WCW/RAW 2 in 1, because I think that would have been enough

Before it was announced I said the figures need to be a hit for it to be a success. That’s not cos I’m any sort of expert or genius but look at the previous crowdfund. It stalled hard until that macho was announced
Now there may be more wcw figures coming - someone listed some people on Steve’s insta and he replied “patience”. Now that could mean they’re hoping people will get signed, they know people have recently been signed but not in time for this set or they’re planning on doing prople already signed (Booker etc) but the general consensus across all platforms not just here seems to be the figures are underwhelming

I went with "can't afford" but not quite accurate. I could find the money of I needed to. I just feel like it's not a responsible use of my money. I've definitely spent my share of frivolous money on the mattel wwe line I love. 400 all in one fell swoop is a lot. I just know what else I could use that money for like towards a trip, things around the house, upgrading clothes and shoes etc.

$400 US is not $695 CAD, not sure who at Mattel Creations did the currency conversion. That combined with the size of the stage and the figures has me backing out of this one.

Since I'm international its not really realistic for me. I like the figures but the stage would be secondary.

I'm backing it, but my son doesn't want another Rey, so I'll be selling him.
Only backing if it gets to 11k.
Even if it still gets the goal, but doesn't reach 11k, I'll likely cancel.
I'm not spending 400 on a stage I can't display and only 2 or 3 ultimates.

The Canadian price includes duties and import fees. When I clicked a link in the email Mattel Creations sent out, that information was in a pop up right when I got to the product page.

Love the stage, I'm an overseas collector, I don't want rey, hogan, I only want steriner which is looking very difficult to obtain at present, I want a Jean DDP and lastly I have no space. I'm confused 😵
