Curious who is going to pick this one up. I want the Eric figure but have no need for the ring. Someone in Steve's Instagram post mentioned it would look good with the entrance stage. And it's clear that still stings. It does have the nostalgia of Monday Nitro and would be good to display wcw legends. Wondering if rsc will ever sell individually the figure and ring.

I will, but I’d be happier about it if the stage had been funded and the MNW line had a wider release.
As is, it’s a fine addition to any WCW display. Could have been part of something greater, though.

I'd like the ring itself, but don't really need the figure or the mat or aprons, or ropes and pads for that matter. I just want to frame and planks, support pieces, posts, and steps. I can't justify the price tag for that. It is a cool look, but not something I am interested in as pictured.

I'm still on the fence.....
It's a LOT of money, at least for me right now....
But it's WCW.... it's NITRO.... it's BISCHOFF......
But it'll take up so much space.... and my collection room is already busting at the seams....
Oh I'll probably order it but I have to scrape the cash together for it......*
*EDIT: I also kind of feel that this SHOULD have come with the floor mats that go around the ring. At least black ones but preferably the flame-fire ones from the original Nitro. Reason being, there will never be a reason to release these again or separately so we will never get them.
*EDIT 2: I just looked at the set again and to me - the Bischoff face looks "off". The Ruthless Aggression Bischoff was perfect - in my eyes one of Mattel's best figures. This Bischoff Ultimate just doesn't look quite right to me..... again - for this high price point, it needs to be perfect.... maybe the finished version will look a little better?

Matty does another BOGO special, sure.

I like the Bischoff but I don’t need another ring and I went and got the RA elite Bischoff and that’ll just have to suffice.

The nitro ring has been up on ringside for months now and should be shipping by the end of the month, why is it being announced now like nobody knew about it

Have zero interest in the ring and wish the Bischoff was available as a standalone figure.

I’m a ring nut, so I absolutely want it. I have the New Gen and Attitude Era rings. But I seriously regret not buying another during the BOGO sale. I just didn’t know about it! I would have loved to have extra parts just in case.

I really want this and eventually will cave in, but my decline in purchasing a lot of figures and prioritizing myself plays a part. I’ll wait as long as I have to and will buy the set when it’s on sale, no rush. I kind of wish this set had felt a little more special and had unique ring posts, but it is what it is. Mattel is a business at the end of the day. Kind of also bugs me that we’ll never get that Nitro stage either. It would of looked beautiful with all the upcoming Monday Night Wars releases.

It's not a high priority for me at the moment with the stage not being produced. My display space is pretty maxed out already with the New Gen, Raw, and early 90s WCW rings already on display. The Bischoff does feel like it will tie my Nitro era shelf together though.

Not really all that exciting without the stage, IMO.
Its cool but a collector can only have so many rings. All the rings I've collected over the last 15+ years, I need something to be special or really exciting about it.
The EB is pretty cool too but a lot like the Kane with the AE ring, its not spectacular.
Won't get it until a good sale.

I've no interest in the ring, the New Gen one has never seen daylight and will probably remain that way. However, I'd love the Bischoff but not this way.
