I'm gonna say the SDCC 2010 Exclusive Undertaker as being the best. There was exclusive molding for that figure and it had the best packaging. The recent Bushwhackers Battle Pack are probably the worst figures due to the inaccuracy of the attires. They never wore anything like that. Uhhhhh....  |

-- I'm aware of the history. And I appreciate the appropriate appearance clarification. Still, if you're presenting Hall as a Wolfpack release, common sense would be to include an [nWo] Wolfpack tanker (is all I'm saying). Have they presented it as a wolfpac release? Ringside's description mentions the outsiders (as opposed to the wolfpac), the back of the box mentions BATB '96, too. Did I miss something? Nope, you didn't. I think it just comes down to a misconception of the red and black color combo being mistakenly always related to the nWo Wolfpac faction. I will say at the time it always drove me nuts that The Outsiders and Syxx wore black and red (Syxx had some gold too) while the entire rest of the nWo wore stricly black and white (Hogan had a little bit of blue but majority was black/white). I hated how they didn't match the common theme. |

Did Mattel confirm they're doing WWE exclusive again this year? I know it was alluded to in a prior QA with Bill but I didn't know it's a definite.

Well the Cruiserweights are about to start showing up in the line. Don't forget it takes 9-12 months or so to get a figure out. As far a Titus and characters like that, they usually rot (Bo, Sandow, Rowan, etc). I'm not say flashbacks never rot (Sid and Tito I'm looking at you), but 99% of the time they're the first to go from a fresh case.
I personally collect flashbacks so I'm sure I'm a little biased, but I'm confident Mattel has numbers to prove the flashbacks and 5-8 big names on the current roster are what make them money...
Side note- I'm down for a heel all black Neville. Love his new gimmick and really am trying to convince myself that the new CW division is/can be as awesome as WCW's was

Can someone post a pic of this figure next to the cm punk BP Macho to see the difference in tights color? They are the same color, but they are a shade of pink. The trouble is he wore a duller pink at WMIII.  Thanks for that man! I'm trying to convince my eyes that the DM is just a tad darker haha |

Nothing for me yet but I'm so amped for this to ship... getting Berserker, AJ, Hall, and RSE Balor. Probably my favorite order in a while!

Series 40 Sami Zayn *EDIT I know, I am late to the game. All good bro, we all start somewhere! I always kept up to date with the Ultimate Warrior figures that were released, but it wasn't until I was walking through Wal Mart on a random Friday night with my fiance (now wife) and saw E30 Animal and Lex Luger sitting on an end cap. I grabbed both (my wife wasn't pumped on dropping $40 on two toys and had no idea what was about to come from that purchase haha) and went home and immediately went on Ringside and found a damaged packaging Hawk and bought that. I also ordered some of those loose figures RS used to have thus my obsession was (re)started. Ebay and FBook groups allowed me to work out deals to buy figures as lots and helped me build my collection quickly. When you break down the price of figures when you buy them in lots, it's a much easier pill to swallow then having to buy them individually. |

I will (have) buy every single Sting made by Mattel. I'm really hoping the modern Stings are done because they're so similar and I'm not usually a fan of classic guys in modern looks. Plus I'm running out of shelf room haha. Same with 98-01 Crow Sting. They're, for the most part, identical. I would welcome this version though:  Surfer Stings are so different that they don't blend together. My most wanted Sting still though is his debut Crow look, followed by the last time he talked:   As far as Surfer Sting's go... bring them alllll on! I really want a baby blue/white one and I want an elite version of the orange/blue one as well. I feel like we need a neon pink/black one as well as the WCW pride one of yellow/purple. Lastly, I'd love to see a red/yellow one from when he tagged with Hogan on CotC so I can put Hogan, Warrior, Sting, and Macho all together in the same look on my shelf!  |

When I asked Bill at RSF, without saying it's coming out pretty much said a new one will be made soon. I'm hoping for a purple most, red second, but will buy any and all Kerry's as he's in my top 5 of all time. I still have my signed promo from when I met him like 3 weeks before he killed himself

Really hoping it's not HIAC as the all black will be boring. The TNF3 is legit the 3rd grey/black figure coming out after the 2 basics that just came out so I'll be super bummed if E52 is another black/grey. I'm hoping for SS16 so we can get a vest for that and not just the basic but I'll also take a silver/black one as well.

Has anyone taken the trunks from the Kmart Exclusive t shirt Balor and put them with a regular torso?

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo I'm so bummed they used this Takeover Finn for an exclusive and a basic nonetheless!!! Aside from the blue and the Tokyo Balors, this was my favorite one he's had. It looks great nonetheless and as soon as I find it I'm buying him and Rollins.

Well now I know I don't have to buy Rollins' last two basics since they're allllll in the exact same attire. I just really hope E52 Rollins is either SummerSlam neon or the silver and black.

Surprised berserker isn't in brown but maybe that's because mankind is? Pumped regardless. AJ looks great but his last 3 releases are all black and grey. I wanted to collect every Styles figure but damn mattel is making hard for me to care about the small variances in each. Hall is awesome though, through and through

Don't mean to hijack the discussion but I figured I'd post. I've got everything ever released at retail of Kane (to my knowledge). This should be all the Kane BCA 6" figures released in the legit BCA era/style. (Minus the Jakks mini figure - same sculpt but I didn't include him in the pics)    Oh, and as for the 2 Sleeve, Non-Slammers Kane with Lawler legs - This is just one of those things I noticed years and years later in my loose collection. Unfortunately I don't know what series it's from or even if it's common. Haven't seen one since!  I want that inverse Backlash Kane sooooo bad!!! I just can't find it for a price I feel comfortable with |

While I want a 1996 and WCW warrior. I think we really need a 1989 warrior most. A year I'd argue he was at his most popular. Summerslam 89 would be perfect. I reallllllly want a Survivor Series 89  |
