So did anybody ask about Macho? no clue Crazy how nobody has said anything about the Q&A, really nothing relevant happened? Nobody asked about Walmart or Macho? |

My buddy is saying he saw another company is putting out the ultimate style WM 7 Savage? And he’s not talking about Zombie’s Heels & Faces. Said he saw it in 1 of the Facebook groups but can’t remember which. Anyone know what he’s talking about?

Only people doing that scale that I’m aware of are Zombie, PowerTown, and The Artist Formerly Known as Chella. Doubt it’s PowerTown and Chella hasn’t even started on Sabu that they showed off like a year ago. |

Just figured I’d check with people here lol |

As a Warrior guy, I always wanted a run back of the Ultimate Maniacs as Ultimate Editions giving Savage his jacket. I would definitely like a trunks UE Macho as well. Just so many cool looks Macho had flame singlet Ultimate Maniac Warrior would still be great to get. 150% |

Watching Zombie on the NotSam podcast he did make sure he pointed out that Andre was designed for around 1989 when he was in Japan and Pillman was in the time in between WCW and ECW. So clearly he’s trying to avoid linking his figures to WWE attires. My guess is that he’s gonna claim that WM7 Macho King is when he wore it outside of WWE.

I was under the impression he only wore it that one time. Could he really not legally do attires Savage used in WWE? Not even when he’s working with the guy who designed the attire? Seems like he’s the one that’d own the rights to those specific designs, not WWE. |

Savage did wear the WM7 one other time, shortly after the PPV in Japan. |

Yeah I always attributed to a TV show. For example, WWE has the likeness rights to Capt Lou. But if they made him in red overalls with a light blue dress shirt then Nintendo/Saban would definitely sue even tho they have no rights to overalls and dress shirts or Lou’s likeness but the overall imagery is their IP. |

Yup. Or the production company behind Seinfeld doesn't own the rights to one of Kramer's futon down shirts, but if someone made a Michael Richards action figure wearing one of said shirts, same thing. |

I love the UE8 figure despite minor inaccuracies and the jacket being mostly white instead of multi-color, but these 3 always stuck out to me from my childhood, and I always wanted one of these as an Ultimate Edition figure (even though some were maybe just promo shots?) Also, unsure if the green attire ever had a jacket, but I would hope, as that image always stuck out to me.    The one where he is wearing the belt is one of my TOP wanted figures of Macho Man! |

It is a beautiful figure for sure but i like him more in shiny glittering Robes with Short's look. I own his second Definig moments figure which is quite underrated as compared to this look. Maybe that's why I'm not that mad about it getting cancelled. But still this action figure was very well put together.

The one in the middle has been a huge want of mine for a long time, I remember seeing that photo used a bit back in the 90s on other merchandise. This one has always been a big want for me as well.   This one too:   |
