Is that it or is there more tomorrow and Saturday? In the past they’ve shown several things fri and Saturday. So. I’d be surprised if they didn’t again this year. Probably will get a few big surprises before the con is over. |

Highlights for me: I would like to get excited for the Rick Rude WCW figures but I can't match his look up for a specific event yet. Anyone know the specific events for those two wcw rick rude elites He wore the darker pair of tights in a match with Davey Boy Smith in March of 1993 during a UK Tour.   He also wore them in a match with Cactus Jack  Looks like he wore the other tights (US Themed) in a match with Nikita Koloff in 1992.  Perfect thank you |

Just need Elite Nia, Alba and Isla and my top 5 wishlist is checked boo! Agree on Isla and Alba, long overdue. Also missing Elektra and Ivy, Michin, and Lyra Since we're getting a elite Tiff now,a Sol and Lyra has moved to the top of my list of most wanted elites. A Lyra with her feathers and maybe the NXT title would look amazing. With so many great women in NXT right now,not even counting Guilia and Vaquer. It seems we might have a even longer wait for ones like Alba and Dawn to get figures. You would think atleast a Isla/Alba two pack of basics could be in the works. Still need a Kiana too,two pack with Fallon would be great Besides Sol,i would love figures of Fallon,Jordan,Wendy, Lola,Tatum,Karmen, Arianna, Wren,Jaida,Kelly Kincaid and Meiko(guess she's still signed). That's not even counting Jacy and Gigi elites from NXT |

Excited to see Gunns Billy. Guess they don't have the rights to Bart? But a headswap will do the trick! I asked for recommendations over in customs.

Honestly... it's a shame we have to go back to Mattel's rather crappy looking, off-colour, tattoos on Punk, no Arashikage - and of course, those two bare spaces they can't be bothered to fill, after Jazwares' more realistic, accurately coloured versions. That's one area Jazwares beats Matty - the tattoo work. As for no 'drug free'... Do the Jazwares hands fit on Mattels? If so, problem solved. As for the SES Punk, I'll most likely stick with the originals I've got. Not only have they added some grey/white to his beard - which looks silly... but - JW ROH version aside, I'm not really fussed about revisiting any pre-chest tat Punk, tbh.

I hope they give Make a Difference Fatu a smaller body. He was not that size yet.

I’m going to wait until MITB Punk is in hand, but that Jazwares Supreme Punk still looks to be the best on paper. And no, I checked last night. The Jazwares hand pegs are bigger than Mattel’s. |

![]()   He definitely wore this ring attire during the Match 1993 Wembley Arena match with Davey Boy Smith. I know because I was there. The finish was baffling, Rude got disqualified because he put his boots up as Davey Boy charged into him from the turnbuckles. This would have been much better tights to make personally. If it had been that attire, I may have even got it myself. On a completely unrelated note, I honestly never knew he was that hairy... I only ever saw the oiled-up 'ravishing', shaven, WWF, Rude. |

No Macho Man figures. Im starting to think that he has about as much chance of getting back in the line as Demolition and Legion of Doom.
Also nothing, not even a Basic of Charlotte Flair.
Also...no prototype or anything for Haku.

I am happy for all who got their wishes today. I feel empty once again being that early 80s guy. It’s like when Alf Alfa and spanky came back to school and all the ice cream was gone. Nothing for me =*(. Was hoping for early 80s all the other toy companies are nailing it ! Maybe April I will wait again. Thought atleast US Express. Or remakes of heel Volkoff and Hillbilly Jim Bobby Heenen all black. Or new Muraco heel version Sad day for me. I think Mattel has done a great job. It’s just not happening any more. Golden era collectors are getting slowly & quietly phased out as the years go on I've noticed. |

Also...no prototype or anything for Haku. Starting to seem like Lanny Poffo was the one keeping the WWE/Savage relationship together. When he passed away, the agreement with WWE fell apart. Which is ironic, since Lanny Poffo didn't seem to have a WWE agreement himself - we never got any "Genius" figures since the JAKKS days. |

I think most classic collectors were hoping for at least one of the LOD/Demolition/Savage trio to resign with Mattel, but it doesn't seem likely now. |

I do wonder what's blocking Macho Man / WWE currently; We've seen Andre The Giant, Jake The Snake Roberts, and Billy Gunn all be kept on Legends Status but yet also have running deals with other outside companies. Wonder why WWE can't get Savage's estate on a deal like that? But for me, THIS image made it clear that Macho isn't part of the plan right now. Savage is sorely missing from this group. On the bright side - I guess this means they still have rights to Elizabeth and Sherri? Maybe we'll still get NWO Elizabeth and Harlem Heat "Sister" Sherri....  |
