Why are we getting a 1995 Bulldog? Wish it was his WCW attire with the flag on his tights, tassels and white boots. It could have included a cloth flag as an accessory. I kinda want an allied powers to go with the Luger we got way back in the day. *After giving it an extra second of thought I guess that wouldn’t work for MNW considering Luger was on the first Nitro unless Davey kept that look for a little while longer. I think that attire would be a good candidate for the Legends line. I just think Mattel chose some really boring attires for series 5 besides Booker. Kane doesn’t even look like he has the ultimate waist belt. Hardcore Hak wasn’t someone who I really wanted in the line, but after thinking back he’s at least a great addition to my roster. Everyone knows how excited I am for Booker. I’m curious to see what we get next. Do we have a ringside fest this year? |

Theres only so much you can do with Sandman and this feel like a good spot for him but this era of WCW isn’t for me. Kane I feel we have all of his iconic looks. I don’t need every slight variation of his costume. Bulldog is also someone that I don’t need every look. I’m fine with the ones I have. If they make allied powers or biker shorts I’ll probably get, maybe when he was with Sting in WCW, but I’m gonna be choosy with him and this version does nothing for me. I think there’s gonna be a ringside fest. Steve was on a podcast and sounded like he let it slip. Not sure exactly what he said but maybe something like “possibly we’ll see at ringside fest” then quickly went “ummm even if they do a ringside fest this year, IDK.” |

Series 5 is the one with Razor Ramon & WCW Debut Warrior... Series 5 Razor Ramon Lita Syxx (Lightning bolt singlet standard)(Thug singlet Chase) Ultimate Warrior (Nitro Debut) Build a figure nWo Dusty Rhodes Bonus Wave Triple H Best of Attitude era Re-release Shawn Michaels Elite 19/lost legends Re-release Eddie Guerrero Hall of Champs Re-release Bam Bam Bigelow Legends 11 Re-release Build a figure nWo Vincent Series 6 Kane British Bulldog Hardcore Hak Booker T (Black gear standard)(White gear Chase) Build a Figure Golga Series 6 is definitely NOT a priority for me. I do think Kane and Booker T are good representations of the Monday Night Wars, I think I need to see the British Bulldog before I pass judgement - and Harcore Hak AND Golga are essentially pure WrestleCrap as far as I'm concerned. We'll see what the final product looks like but I'm doubtful these are going to be figures I'm interested in spending any sort of time trying to track down. |

Another forgettable series other than Warrior and the BAF but the BAF not worth buying all the figs. |

FYI you're both talking about MNW Series 6, not Series 5. Series 5 is the one with Razor Ramon & WCW Debut Warrior... Series 5 Razor Ramon Lita Syxx (Lightning bolt singlet standard)(Thug singlet Chase) Ultimate Warrior (Nitro Debut) Build a figure nWo Dusty Rhodes Bonus Wave Triple H Best of Attitude era Re-release Shawn Michaels Elite 19/lost legends Re-release Eddie Guerrero Hall of Champs Re-release Bam Bam Bigelow Legends 11 Re-release Build a figure nWo Vincent Series 6 Kane British Bulldog Hardcore Hak Booker T (Black gear standard)(White gear Chase) Build a Figure Golga Oh yeah. Another forgettable series other than Warrior and the BAF but the BAF not worth buying all the figs. I feel like that Razor was not needed in this line, but it’s a cool attire for those who want it. I would of preferred it in the Legends line. Syxx was a huge want for me in that attire and Booker too. It’s crazy to think that Steve more than likely put in the good word for a couple of figures I’ve asked for. I feel like they’re holding out and giving us some slow burners. Here’s what I’d like to see in the future: Baby blue singlet Mr.Perfect in Starrcade ‘97 with small resized WCW US title, new thicker body with sculpted singlet, deep tan Ultimate Scott Hall in his black and red HALL trunks with black boots, bigger arms Ultimate Nash in his Souled Out ‘96 gear or RSE/Legends attire (anything resembling those looks for me would be nice) Ultimate Pink tights WCW Bret from ‘98 with interchangeable jacket Psycho Sid with new body mold Ultimate 2001 Hardcore Kane with sculpted mesh, flames singlet, new headscans Billy Kidman (if they sign him) Fit Finley Rey Mysterio with his half mask Ultimate Wolfpac Hogan with white gloves, red flame boots and hat And many more |

After 14 years of collecting this line it’s gonna take a lot to get me excited. Syxx was a downgrade from his previous release IMO. No shirt, no headband, no goatee. Don’t need another color variation of Razor. Got all the Litas I’ll ever need. I have a custom nWo Dusty but would love this version but ain’t buying the set to get him so the custom will do. |

Fighter Hayabusa I agree with you with the line up and some choices made. I was super stoked and still am about Syxx, but a lot of it is because I’m biased about the attire. There were things I were upset about most notably about the torso choice. I absolutely hate the Xpac torso. I think it looks odd and prefer the 123 kid torso for Syxx. The goatee choice was weird because Syxx didn’t have a full beard. The lack of 6 ball shirt sucks too. What I’m going to do is replace the hair and hope that the previous hairpiece with bandanna works on him. The only positive about getting figures we don’t want is more money to save and for me it makes a difference. I pretty much only collect WCW figures from a specific era.

I understand why the Legend/nostalgia deals are needed... but, man... could you imagine if Mattel could go down that WCW/nWo Revenge roster for the 2 WCW slots and occasional BAF for this series. It would be a WCW fan's absolute DREAM. |

It would be a WCW fan's absolute DREAM. I would completely loose my mind. Especially, if we could get packaging similar to the Toybiz smash n slam series. I pretty much remember a lot of my favorite characters by their attires in that game. It’s like forever engrained in my head and possibly my favorite wrestling game of all time besides “Here comes the Pain”. Syxx I wanted because of how he looked in WCW World Tour, but Revenge was the real deal. |

Other than Hogan, Rock, and Triple H Well I've actually never seen The Rock MNW at retail, and my Walmart Pre-Order is due in six days (after 1st delay) and hasn't shipped yet.... Maybe your Walmart MNW Preorders will pass my Decade of Domination Nattie and Mark Henry in the warehouse at the "Processing" station that mine has been in for, what, 4 years now? |

Probably why I forgot. Don’t care about the other 3 at all. Want Golga but not enough to pay to build him or buy loose. Why are we getting a 1995 Bulldog? Wish it was his WCW attire with the flag on his tights, tassels and white boots. It could of included a cloth flag as a accessory. Why not? We haven't received a 1995/96 Bulldog in the line, yet. Plus, he wore the cape during this reign as well.  |

I honestly don’t think of that attire when I think of Monday Night Wars, but when I do think of Bulldog I think of his tassels and more intricate attires. This is the one I like: |

This is the one I like: I guess will have to agree to disagree. Those tights aren't my favorite, and his WCW run was forgettable. I'd rather have his heel 1995/1996 attires with the WWF. This is still my most wanted Davey Boy Smith. He needs a new, bigger torso and pair of arms, a new head sculpt with longer unbraided hair, and a tan.  The t-shirt would be nice:  If we're talking about WCW Davey Boy, I'd rather have 1993:   |
