Two Man Power Trip being basics is also kinda disappointing. Also woulda preferred Trips to have the \-H-/ shirt

I’m beyond frustrated with UE Angle and that cloth singlet. HBK Survivor Series is also very frustrating. I feel like we’re going backwards.

The figures I want (Ultimates and WM 38 Austin) look great to me, outside Eric’s heads. Never get unrealistic expectations for preview nights. Good stuff though.

The figures put up earlier today were all home runs for me, so I'm happy.
Elite Steiner is cool and long overdue. It's a shame we got so close on JJ or we'd have figures of pretty much all the top names.
The modern figures look cool, but I've stopped collecting anything that I don't love from the modern era due to space. Those will all be passes.
It's starting to feel like they're stretching themselves thin on Ultimates. There seem to be a more and more design issues and they don't feel so "ultimate" to me anymore.
I love the wrestler BAFs, but it feels like the lineup selections are a lot less appealing.
The MNW set feels flat to me. On one hand, a ton of street gear figures are cool and reflect iconic moments of the era. On the other, they feel like underwhelming versions of wrestlers I already have a dozen figures of and low deco budget savers. But I'll probably still buy them all, and Mattel knows that.

I'm sure that new packaging will look fine in my trash.

Seems like a lot of reveals .... will there be more, or did they put it all out there up front? Probably everything tonight. There will probably be more displayed tomorrow, and then the panel will reveal a lot more and we’ll know which lines each figure is in.

UE Piper…my favorite figure ever? Time will tell. I am BLOWN AWAY by that Piper. My goodness guys. Hats off to you for that one. That TNF Elite 4 pack box set is fantastic as well. Plenty shown tonight to excite me already. Perhaps it’s nitpicking, but I wish it had the blond highlights in his hair. That and a head with his hair down on his forehead like below.

Personally love the Angle. Scans and attire work for me. Very outspoken about not wanting cloth singlets but that will look good MOC and that’s what I want.

She doesnt belong in this box of wrestling gods False She doesn't fit. Put Roman or Cena in there. Becky just doesn't fit at all.

I’m also worried about the height on Scott Steiner. He looks way to tall from these pictures.

Totally unrelated, but it's crazy to me that Macho, Piper, and Hogan were all in their early-mid 40s during the peak of the Nitro run. They felt (and moved) like ancient icons when they were about the same age as today's young upstarts Finn Balor and LA Knight. Perception is reality, I guess.

When I first started collecting, my goal was to have as many individual wrestlers as possible. Maybe a variant or two based on a different costume, etc.
Somewhere along the way, my shelf is instead becoming a collection of sections - Hogans, Andres, Savages, Razors, Brets, Pipers, etc.
It’s certainly interesting.
