Honestly though...Who the hell has space for something like this, let alone multiples ones? They need to scale it down (even if it's inaccurate) and dumb it down a little, which would bring the price down and make it easier to fund. I would be perfectly content with a smaller scale version of the RAW is WAR stage. I have a lot of attitude era figures in my collection so it would pretty much be a display stand for all of those. Absolutely. |

Man, forgot about this  Wanted both so bad. And a Smackdown Oval-Tron… The absurdity of marek thinking it was a good idea to run 3 stages as crowd funders with nothing in between to break them up |

That’s to big and that’s why it wasn’t funded, yet people bought that big as s MOTU eternia thing which I’m sure cost a lot more and probably a lot bigger than that stage. |

They got 9300 people to buy in at $550. The Nitro stage got just under 4,000 at $400. Pain. Personally no interest in a Raw stage, but damn did I want the Nitro one. |

Ah, the first round of our biannual 4 days of "they didn't show exactly what I wanted so clearly the reveals suck and the line is dying!" Truly the most wonderful times of the year 😂

All going to this at the Convention Center I recommend checking out the Reading Terminal Market right next to it. Specifically Beiler's Donuts 👍

Definitely not the size that was the issue. I bet you majority of the ppl who backed the stage didn’t have room for it but backed it just to have it. I have room for both of the stages but I doubt I would have ever put them up , but would have loved to have had them. |

I’d have never bought that Raw stage anyways.
But I would still love the nitro stage even though I don’t have space

Hoping for some ECW related reveals given where Mania is this year.
Wishlist includes debut Dudley Boyz in tye dye, and a new Rhyno with proper mold and new singlet.
Paul Heyman in his ECW attire would be an absolute dream. His Legends figure was way too hard to find and not my #1 look for him anyway.
Longshot wants are Tajiri with alternate head featuring his post-green mist look and Spike Dudley in tye dye and a chase with red camo to match the E45 Dudleyz.

All I am asking for is the next Coliseum Collection set revealed for after Hart Foundation.
Of course, I’d love for them to announce and show new Legends or Coliseum Collection figures for Demolition, Powers of Pain, Hercules, Dynamite Kid, King Haku and One Man Gang.
Oh, and the introduction of an LJN scale line, like Big Rubber Guys!
But keeping expectations low, I’d accept simply getting the next Coliseum Collection set revealed.

Every year I dream of seeing Hercules, Dino Bravo, Rougeaus, Mr Fuji, Adrian Adonis,One Man Gang, The Genius, Barbarian, Slick, Koko, Giant Gonzalez, Adam Bomb, Crush, etc. Returns of Demolition, LOD, Rick Martel, etc. |

I personally would have backed both of them, and while I certainly would not have them up year round, I definitely would put it up and display it with figures for Wrestlemania season. I have a gathering of friends each year and put up a figure display for fun. But totally wouldn't have the room for a permanent thing. |

I just now recently opened and displayed the New Gen ring. |

No, the issue was the price point, and if the stages were made a little smaller, the price could have been lower. |

So y’all complain about figures/rings not being in scale, but you don’t care if stages aren’t in scale just so you can afford it. You do these fundings for things like this, not for something small and out of scale, that’s what Walmart/targets are for. |
