Unfortunately it isn’t a different face paint color or design but they have still successfully captured another $100 of my money!! We feel this is the most iconic paint and this will be the first LOD figures ever (released) to have the correct DIFFERENT pads. You might have already addressed this and I missed it but are there any variants planned? If so, these two styles are in contention for that iconic look of that era (though it could be cost prohibitive given the amount of detail necessary):

VERY tempting. But they don’t fit my WWF/LJN era collection timeline rules. I think I’ll opt out for my first whole wave since series 1. But still, well done! I’m very hopeful this wave creates the sales and attention this brand deserves! We will get you with 2 out the 3 of the next set! Nice! Thank you for verifying!

Pretty close to ljn era plus with how amazing they'd look, how could you say no? Lol

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.

Great reveal today with the Road Warriors. Loving all the tag teams that are coming. Would be thrilled to see The Nasty Boys in this line as well!

Love the Road Warriors, can't wait to add these to the collection. Especially love that the pads are accurate, excellent attention to detail.

I only have so much space, gotta stick within my parameters. They do look great though! I’ll happily admire my Demolition and Powers of Pain Big Rubber Guys as the ones who came first (in WWE revisionist history)!

As an upside for me, this will give my preorders of British Bulldogs, Duggan and Powers of Pain time for fulfillment before my next orders in August… well, at least the Bulldogs and Duggan, hopefully. I can’t wait!

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

I know I’m looking further ahead than most, but already psyched about this! Based on your prior announcement that 1 LJN redo would be coming in the next two waves, and Brooklyn Brawler’s tease at the Live show, I’m going to guess King Haku and The Brooklyn Brawler. And yes, I would happily buy both!… but also be fine with a WWF/LJN era curve ball or two (meaning I wouldn’t mind being wrong).

These Road Warriors are SIIIICK!!! No offense to my Boards-buddy darkproph, my parameters be da**ed! I really dig the midas touch of the removable pads. Well done!

It would be much easier on my wallet…lol The Road Warriors are a definite buy for me even though I was a WWF kid growing up. Much like the Dusty they just look too good to pass on. If an LOD BRG variation comes at a later date i’ll be all over that too. Keep up the great work!

Very dope. I know everyone wants WWF but I’m loving the little NWA collection this line is building.

Could have sworn Road Warriors are in the same wave as Ethan Page and a yet to be revealed (modernish) talent. Are the tights plan black or will they have the red lettering on them?

Yes, my understanding is the June preorder is 2 modern (Ethan Page and yet to be announced) and 2 old school (Road Warriors).

Zero interest in new wrestlers, but I’ll definitely order the Road Warriors.
