Got my order in as soon as it went up! Very excited for this set.
Do we know if the packaging will be similar to the Target Hogan's or are they going to be individually boxed?
The fact you can just order them each on their own leaves me a little concerned that it will be something similar to the Defining Moments box ... Which is perfect for those, but this Foley set needs to be all three packaged together for mock display IMO.

You can buy them separately or they will put all three individual boxes inside a cover box |

with them being able to be bought separately, I bet they’ll be like the DM set
hopefully in custom packaging for each in a larger custom box

Surely they’ll all be together with one big window? Steve and Foley himself mentioned the popularity of the Jakks set, how many of those he’s signed in different paint pens and how cool they look….if Mattel just put these in seperate boxes it would be weird and would be dropping the ball.

I think it will be the same concept as the DM ringside exclusive set. Has to be because why else would they sell them separately |

Has to be because why else would they sell them separately I guess you’re probably right, seems mental though and a missed opportunity to not do the same style box they’ve done for the Hogan set. |

I still bought it cause I wanted it.
But I question why mankind doesn't come with a cloth goods shirt, when they made a perfect one for the superstars line?
Hogan 3 pack has more accessories and almost 40 bucks less.
Ringside tax is for real.
Glad other shops are coming along. Competition is great for the consumer.
I also see uncle paul following ringside footsteps since they want 40 for the new ra series.
Ringside wants 22+shipping for la knight BASIC. You can get him elsewhere for 12+shipping.
I wish ringside would stop with the airship and using that as an excuse to further increase the price.
90% of people don't care to get the figure asap.

Aren't there like 7 faces of Foley though? Cactus, two Mankinds since the early and later versions are so different, Dude, Commish, GM, and the regular Foley stripped of all gimmicks. And don't get me started on Santa Foley...

The only ones complaining, are the ones that paid to have it first, and are not getting them. Majority of "teh fIrStS" are ones that are quickly trying to re sell. |

Not as excited for this as I would’ve been Ultimates. Cactus is the true draw of the set, but I was really hoping for an upgrade to the old Ringside exclusive. Mankind is a bit like a Greatest Hits in that I’m glad everyone will have a chance to add it to their collections, but it really doesn’t spark much interest in me after owning the previous versions. Dude Love isn’t exceptionally better than his first Elite either. I don’t think the cloth vs. rubber shirts debate has a clear winner because neither are particularly flattering. Sculpted shirt torsos are the way to go. It’s like imagining a Boss Man Elite figure without the shirt torso sculpted to his size - it just wouldn’t look right.

100 is insane. I just went ahead and bought the og dude love today for 30. Already have cactus and mankind. When this lowers in price I'll order it. But if it doesn't probably just pass.

Am I nuts or does the Mankind figure have his eyes painted as if he's looking to the side in both the physical prototype and the render?
Why?

I mistakenly thought these were ultimates when first announced and went to order before realizing I have this mankind and the previous dude is better.
This one is a head scratcher.

this looks like a jakks figure agreed and Dude love is looking too slim. We raised voice for skinny Hogan but not skinny Dude Love. |
