Saw this posted on a big site that shall not be named (that would be bad). Looks like it could be a Major product:  |

Bendies? Matt had said they HAD no plans at the time for LOD BRG repaints

Given that the silhouettes didn’t appear to be in a bendie form, I was leaning towards BRG. Kyle Peterson had speculated either. I suppose these could be for one of their other two lines. For those wondering why these may not be BRG’s, this is what was said previously. Will we see variants on these? Red and black attire? Just wondering if i need to get a extra set to customize or not lol There will be no variant to these. You can’t repaint these pads and have them be accurate. Ok, will there be another set in different colors with corresponding pads? I forgot how safe the wording has to be in this business haha Ever? Maybe. Who knows. Anytime soon? No. |

I bet this is a new line inspired by the WCW Galoobs.

Animal appears to be in a similar pose to the Hasbro figure. While Hawk isn't, I'd have to guess that this set is based on that with the red and black. While they said no repaints, based on the silhouettes, this is a new mold and wouldn't be a repaint. On top of that, if B B T S is footing the bill for an exclusive, plans can change!

New molds are expensive. They would have to be a doing a pretty big run to justify it… |

Legit question for anyone from BRG that wants to answer it: What were the reasons behind making Macho King’s scepter ball purple? Was it due to costs over finding a way to make it clear or simply because purple pops more than say white/non painted?

They definitely don’t fit the proportions of the MajorStars line nor do the arms really match the style of the other bendies. I’m still leaning towards BRG but they could very well be Major Moments figures forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/377319/major-moments-line-mwfp-bendiesIf it is the Moments line, I’m wondering if they go Red, Gold, or both?   |

And likely what LJN would have done. |

And likely what LJN would have done. This was my first thought (except Hasbro). Not hating on it at all; just like to learn about design choices. It’s probably my favorite BRG to date. Was a clear version ever discussed or considered by you guys/your design team? I have watched a ton of Macho King footage in the past few days and the scepter has been on my mind. To my knowledge, Mattel is the only one who planned to do it (but changed it to purple at some stage):  Hopefully the ZST H&F considers this. |

I honestly hope those new LOD silhouettes are a new line they want to try.

Any thoughts about making changes to the social media accounts? Everything is in the Major Bendies name but buzz suggests BRG could eclipse that. You guys have the insight of having sales numbers which is probably your key indicator. But when it comes to making this line bigger, would it make more sense to brand things under the BRG label? Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, or even a .com?  Glad to see things are going to be rebranded/falling under one banner. |

This may be a little behind but I just received my second BRG figure, a 1/1000 bloody Ric Flair … as others have said, these figures are truly masterpieces & a dream come true for fans like myself who have wanted NWA -JCP figures for decades & now along with Magnum, my JCP collection has jump started in the right direction majorly with big Dust up next … keep’m coming, love these!!
Also, I’m hoping the packaging for BRG is never changed because it’s one of a kind … please keep it the same through each series the way Jakks did with the CS

Lol my second BRG is bloody Naitch too and man I love it. Hoping Magnum gets to Canada soon so my local supplier can finally ship it to me. JCP collection is going to look phenomenal this time next year! PoP, Dusty, Road Warriors, Arn & Tully, RNR express, Harley! Oh update on that revitalized ring I bought last week. Replacement ropes came in: |

Since we’re sharing, I ended up getting a new Jakks Monster Ring for a good deal, bought new ropes and LJN style stickers. Now this set-up is coming together to my liking! ibb.co/PF9R2vx |
