How do G&G figures feel in hand? Sturdy? Fragile? Etc... Inconsistent. Some feel great, almost Hasbro like (MOM, Duke, Savio) some feel more like a slight step up from Rush. Oscar feels very fragile and the paint on the stripes could be improved. That said I love what Mitch is doing and I hope the figures keep getting better. I will probably pass on Koko B Ware with New Foundation gear (instead of High Energy) because the lack of detail and inaccuracy, but I'm on board for pretty much everything else he has planned. |

The Drose face just does not look like a Hasbro to me, but that's me. OMG is just in a different league... Although I do like Duke OMG is definitely on another level. Just $1 more too! |

How do G&G figures feel in hand? Sturdy? Fragile? Etc... ...cheap!!! Dont get me wrong i like the figures and mine never fell apart But compared to other companys they feel and sometimes Look cheap...and the quality Level Falls down recently, but if you love your roadblock figure, you will like your quebeckers too. I can not give you an technical Explanation, sorry. |

Mo and Oscar are the only decent figures but even then glue and seams are visible. |

Seems crazy that Mattel can’t sign Macho Man, but independent guys can.

so, if you want more Mattel figures, WWE would need to come to a new agreement with Savage's estate

Can't wait to see what he does with Macho. Not crazy about the one Zombie has shown. Hope Mitch does better, I also hope it's a colorful 90's version.

It would be awesome if someone could get an Elizabeth figure out. Mitch has put up the Canadiens and Marc Mero for pre-order. I snagged all 3. I'm really looking forward to these. |

That would be a cool attire! And I ordered all 3 too. |

I’m really hoping for a Macho King figure with purple trunks and yellow knee pads.

How are Hasttel Toys able to use the Bulldog's 1997 look with the "Hart Foundation" jacket without getting in legal trouble? If they can then why can't AEW make the same Owen hart figure from 1997?

Cheers for the feedback, fellas. Hard for me to get excited for new releases from this guy when I'm not really confident on the quality of his product. Never mind the whole Bulldog debacle!

Think it's been clarified that the family owns the Hart Foundation name and not WWE. And I've heard multiple people say it's Martha that won't allow WWF attires since she wants nothing to do with that era. |
