Steve,
Thanks for being here. I so appreciate it. I am a long time legends lover .... do we know when the Million Dollar man legends comes out and where it will be? I don't want to miss the pre-order. I know this is NOT your responsibility but I did order the legends from Target in a pre-order and have not received. Hope all is well with that line still. U r awesome ... thank you for your enthusiasm on Legends and the great job you all do to make them.

Steve, -Compliments to you again for your incredible engagement on this forum ... also your passion for the line. I also love your dream lineups of first in the lines - legends, current and NXt. All cool. -Compliments to Bill for continued great great designs. I hope he knows how much he is appreciated. -The WWE elite line (particularly legends) is by far my favorite toy line and I collect a lot of different lines. I have a few questions for you please. I love Rocky Johnson as a wrestler and so glad his figure is being made ... SO GLAD! I am the MOST happiest with him. I am curious why he wasn't sampled out as an image first to allow time for constructive criticism to get skin tone more accurate? -Also curious about the log jam of a lack of NEW 1st in the line Legends. Love Mr. T, Rocky and Mae but my excitement always comes with look what is coming next year or later in the year yipppppe. How can we respectfully convey to WWE the importance of them honoring their past with their great catalogue of wrestlers from the past, videos and network to support it??? Is there something we can do? -I do love the remakes too - clearly not as much ... but Orndorff in red is wrestlemania 1 and will replace my blue trunks figure on display. Ted Dibiase and others will be fun. I will buy and support. It seems we have more than ever this time which leads me to the question ... are we running out of new 1st in the line legend figures that are available to you to make??? Because there are soooo many legends still to go that I am sure are in good standing and would love to be represented? Again, thanks for being a part of my favorite line, interacting with us and understanding our passion of these very cool toys. Maybe there will be a reveal today or tomorrow that will make me eat crow?

Steve, Let me try another approach ... your deal with WWE is AWESOME! If someone who was in the AWA, NWA, or a multitude of other wrestling organizations or simply independent like a Brusier Brody or Abdullah the Butcher ... do you NEED WWE to make those happen or are you able to do your own thing in addition to WWE? Would that be considered a conflict of interest or benefit WWe who had no interest in getting a licensing deal for it? Sorry for my passion but I am only getting older to see my 70's, 80's, 90's hopefuls made.

Steve,
I'm going to say this again. THANK YOU for interacting with us passionate fans. It's so encouraging and smart on your behalf and we are all the beneficiaries of it. Thanks. Now that this scale elite line is so well established and successful do you think your new Mattel (i think it's called) Vault exclusives could get more obscure legends from the past? Kind of like McFarlane did with his Spawn figure and raised 3 million plus for the figure?

Wow. Amazing figure with Mr. T! Love it and I bought mine. What was the thought process of getting a first in the line figure with that much deco as an exclusive if you don't mind answering?

I too had issues over and over and over ... but I assume it was because of the demand all at once. It went through finally. Good luck to the rest of you.

Steve, To your point. Yes. Mattel was way ahead of the game. Mindset back then was Jaaks was a great great line. Will this new line from Mattel match? The answer now is it's even better! Yeah ... But back then the mindset was Matty and this forum was not fully packed with avid fans. They are now. The view back then was if Andre and King Kong Bundy are a part of Matty only this might not be the line for us if they are not readily doing popular legends like them. Now I think you could offer the Missing Link on Matty or pre-order and have soooo much more success then back then when people didn't know the game. I did get Bundy and Andre though. Question ... To start a figure from scrap to the stores is a year. But in the case like Jim Neidhart ... that is already made or Harley Race .... how long would it take for that to get stores being you have the figure mold? THANK YOU!

Steve, So again ... thanks for being here with us and also thank you for pushing retail which is above and beyond your job. Does Mattel watch what Todd MCfarlane just did with his kickstarter hoping he would raise 100 thousand for a figure and getting 3.4 million? I think it was telling and the wave of the future to offer these pre orders. To see Greg Valentine selling out within 24 hours screams demand. Again, it seems you should get a check from Target too for helping them sell their items. To me these pre-orders are the way to go. Pre-sale and meet demand. Thank you

Steve,
I want to thank you for working so diligently with retailers on our behalf. I just ordered my legends line at Target. Thank you! My question is will there be a 4th legend added to that line since Sting is no longer available?

Steve,
Happy Easter! Thanks again for doing this. Jim Neidhart is hard to find. These legends are tough to find!! Do you find it incredibly challenging that it is difficult enough to come out with a line that will please WWE, Fans, Retailers etc ... but in addition to dealing with your variables at Mattel ... you have to coach up retailers to have figures more accessible for them to make money and for us to be happy?
