Given the poor showing for the last stage crowdfund effort, would pop-up/cardboard type stages be a possibility to get some larger stages and/or sets out?

Which other wrestling team are you hoping to get the rights to, that we never got in the future? (BWO, Kronik, Too Cool ect ect)
Also, Can we get a blue steel chair (not announcers version like in Ultimate Macho Man) as an accessory?

Will the Ultimate Bayley be a current look or a flashback, Steve?!?

Is there any chance Marty Jannetty could get a new figure any time soon?
Is there any logistical reason Mattel hasn't attempted another WM12 Shawn Michaels? I think it'd make for a perfect UE.
Are there any plans for how the Hart Foundations Sgt Pepper style jackets from the 90s will be done in the future?
Is it possible we'll see a WWF era Mr.Perfect (ideally an ultimate) with a cloth singlet?
Is there a reason Mattel hasn't done a WWE version of Cactus Jack in so long? Id love to see one to round out the WCW and ECW versions put out through Ringside.
What are the odds we'll see an ultimate Cactus Jack or Dude Love in 2025?
Will the Terry Gordy Executioner figure include a soft goods cape?
Is there any reason the most recent Mick Foley figures haven't come with any weapons as accessories?
Is there anything that can be done going forward about the modern WWE logo on certain items like the chair included with the ultimate RVD?
Are there any licensing issues with the Funk U shirts Terry Funk wore in ECW? I can't help but feel like the greatest hits release is desperately missing it and a towel.
Is there anything stopping Mattel from releasing a breakup of the Rockers Shawn Michaels figure with the leather jacket and jeans?
Is it possible there will be crowdfunded figures/bundles of figures in the future? Maybe for more obscure or controversial names like Dynamite Kid, Adrian Adonis, Chris Benoit, Ernie Ladd, Bull Nakano etc?
Has the failure of the nitro stage at all effected potential WCW figures being released?
Is there any chance of seeing Mattel figures of wrestlers who never directly wrestled in WWE but have been acknowledged by the company like Adrian Street, Great Muta, Magnum T.A, Bruiser Brody, the Midnight Express, etc?
To add onto the previous question is there any interest in doing more releases of WWF/WWE talent from before their time in the WWF/WWE Jerry Lawler from his time in Memphis, Dusty Rhodes from CWF or Crockett, Terry Funk from Memphis or AJPW, Bret Hart during his run in Calgary etc?
How far is advanced is it until a release is set in stone and confirmed to happen or a release is too far along to alter in terms of appearance and accessories not just release schedule?
Are there any plans to release a New Generation style ring to fit the Coliseum Collection line?
What are the odds of seeing releases, retail or online exclusive, of segments and their associated figure like Jake Roberts and the snakepit, Roddy Piper and pipers pit, Adrian Adonis and the flower shop, Brutus Beefcake and the barbershop, etc?
Has there been any discussion at Mattel about releasing a Cyndi Lauper figure in the future to fill out the WrestleMania 1 set?
Are there any plans do double up on some Coliseum collection releases like a recolored Hogan, Piper, or Roberts?
Are there any figures from the LJN line that absolutely will not be a part of the Coliseum Collection? Are there any that can be confirmed will happen eventually?
Is there any logic to the pairings for the Coliseum Collection releases? Wave 1 2 and 4 make varying degrees of sense but I expected Piper to be paired with Adrian Adonis, Cowboy Bob Orton, or Paul Orndorff. Is it one big name one smaller name or is it just somewhat random based on who is signed at the moment or at risk of expiring?
Is there anything that can be done to make the packaging for ultimate and legend figures more resealable and stackable for collectors that keep their boxes?

How well is the Coliseum Collection line doing? Any chance it can increase in sets per year? Thank you!

Why are Ultimate Edition figures no longer carried by any retailer in Canada? Toys R Us used to sell them but they stopped after Series 3.

Have you already started scanning Punk or do you have to wait until he's on tv?

With the recent releases of Paul E Dangerously and Stunning Steve, are there plans to release a WCW version of Rick Rude to round out the Dangerous Alliance?

Following the recent WWE/UFC merger, do you foresee any changes to the current process of acquiring the rights to certain wrestlers?
Is there a chance this could lead to Mattel being allowed to sign wrestlers with TKO’s approval as opposed to the current WWE Legends contract system?

I know you can’t talk about the specifics of Legends deals, but with Dana Warrior recently getting released, are there any efforts to move the Ultimate Warrior into Coliseum Collection, Legends, Monday Night Wars slots in case Dana does not sign a new Legends deal?

What are the chances of a build-a-set like the Heartbreak Hotel making a return?
For instance, the old RAW backstage interview set could be released with a future Monday Night Wars wave or The Funeral Parlor in a Legends wave.

Will we see another Ultimate Undertaker in 2024? Id personally like to see a purple recolor of the ultimate that came in the gooker two pack or a late 2000s early 2010s Deadman style release.
Is there intent to do managers and refs in the Coliseum Collection line?
Does Mattel have any level of input in who WWE goes after for legends deals?
Are there any talks or plans to do a Lawler and Kaufman set in 2024?
What goes into consideration when choosing a best of ultimate or legends greatest hits release?
Has the existence of brands like Chella, Zombie Sailor, and Powertown resulted in any interest in doing territory based figures or more obscure talent?
Are there any figures the folks at Mattel want to do but haven't been allowed to by WWE or just isn't feasible at the moment? (Preferably a talent that is currently signed to some kind of deal that would allow figures)
Has there ever been an instance of a wrestler shooting down a figure release or refusing to have figures be made of themselves?
What usually causes for a mold to be changed? Is there a constant effort to make better molds, is it initiated by fans concerns, or is it just a matter of what can be used most going forward?
Is there anything that goes into a belt being included with a figure? Is it decided based on whether that wrestler is associated with that belt or is it whether that attire is associated with an important title win/reign?
Are there plans to do an ultimate Halloween Havoc 1997 Rey Mysterio to match the upcoming Eddie Guerrero?
Are there any future figures that may come with multiple soft good singlets?
Will there ever be a Roddy Piper figure with a coconut accessory?
Would it be possible to get figures based on unrecognised title wins like Roddy Piper with the WWF world title and IC title or the Rockers with the tag titles? If not solo maybe with who they wrestled for the belt?
Will there be future Hart Foundation 2 packs after the Coliseum Collection release?
Will their be Jim Neidhart figures released from his post Hart Foundation run?
Will their be future releases of Bret Hart, Brian Pillman, Jim Neidhart, etc with the leather jackets to match the greatest hits release of British Bulldog?
Has the advent of third party soft good, decal, or custom figure sites effected how or what figures get made from Mattel?

Once the Coliseum Collection runs its course, could a different Ultimate 2-pack series be viable replacement?
Something like a Famous Feuds set similar to the Championship Showdown basics. It would be a great way to get match specific gear out, and having the correct opponent/attire would potentially increase sales.
Andre (heads with and w/o face paint)vs Ultimate Warrior, Shawn/Bret (Survivor Series 93), HBK vs HHH (SummerSlam 02) are a few options.

Was the Ruthless Aggression line always planned to be so short or was it scrapped because of Walmarts distribution issues? Is it possible it could be revived in the future?
Is the Monday Night War line expected to run longer than the Ruthless Aggression line?
How often will Ultimate Legend figures be released? Will they always have chases? Is it possible we'll see FTITL legends as Ultimates instead of elites?
How is it determined whether a figure will be an Ultimate or Ultimate Legends release?
Is it possible we'll see Coliseum Collection style releases several years from now when the line has wrapped up if wrestlers who weren't signed before get signed?
Will Sgt.Slaughter be released in the Coliseum Collection to make up for those of us who missed out on the SDCC release?
Is that SDCC exclusive Slaughter considered part of the Coliseum Collection? The packaging is similar and he's shown on the back of the first sets packaging but not on the other two waves released so far?
Would it be possible for Mattel to release a Santa Mick Foley in the future?
In the future if we get another hard plastic jacket for figures like Bret Hart would it be possible to get a new mold or a soft goods jacket? The mold for the pink chase is kind of awkward and obviously isn't the correct jacket for the paint over it.
Would it be possible to get an Ultimate WMXX Eddie Guerrero, possibly with a Mexican flag?
If a Halloween Havoc 1997 Rey Mysterio were released would it be possible to include a ripped mask head sculpt?
Would it be possible for Mattel to release NWA, CWF, Crockett, Midsouth, WCCW, etc ring skirts, ropes, mats, and turn buckles for the Mattel Creation style rings?
Should we expect to see another ultimate Kurt Angle with a bald head and a new singlet?
Will British Bulldog be released in the Coliseum Collection regardless of Dynamite Kids status?
Is there a reason Mattel has yet to do a Lunca Vachon figure? Given her connection to Shawn Michaels and cult following status she seems perfect for a legends figure.

1. Are there any FTIL managers planned to be released?
Mr. Fuji (tag team, Yoko) is probably the biggest FTIL manager left to be released.
Marlena, Luna, Harvey Whippelman (seems to have a great relationship with the Rock/WWE), Genius, Kimchee, etc.
2. Are there more managers planned (that previously had a release) besides upcoming Bearer, Captain Lou, Jimmy Hart? More Sherri, Elizabeth, Madusa (Dangerous Alliance), Heenan, Afa (Headshrinkers), etc.

Can we PLEASE get at least ONE elite or Ultimata 1996 Face champion Shawn Michaels in an attire that was worn regularly and not a One or two off wear? Like maybe the Black tights with red or blue hearts or the red tights with the white,/Red/black hearts. Seriously. The fact that you used it on basics and on the basic with elite crotch in a 2 pack is frustrating. It’s been 14 years almost. Time to get an Elite or Ultimate 1996 Face Champion HBK in a commonly worn attire.

With the new MNW series coming out is there a chance we get new DX figs with an attire accurate Billy Gunn without the short boots or maybe some guys we haven't gotten yet like Perry Saturn, The Holly's, Al Snow, Steve Blackman??
