Babyface debut attire.
I’d only want a nation if I had a chance of getting Crush and another Faarooq so I could display both nation eras.

It slows down my buying. We’re really undercooked on ecw talent and have some reasonably big gaps in wcw, golden era and attitude era I’d love to see.

Fair enough just came in fairly short order after I asked that exact question. Bad timing. Didn’t see you ask the question so wasn’t a personal attack on you, even though I hope Burnley win tomorrow night If we didn’t have beef before we do now 😂

I was listening to your pod this week and it’s really good, but considering I asked about Sabu this week, this reply is a bit dickish mate. I paid for it bloody ages ago and have no way of knowing if it’s ever coming, sorry for doing the bare minimum to find out if I’m getting an order. Was not meant to come across as dickish, asking where Sabu is of course is fine. You’ve paid for a figure that up until a few months ago had zero updates, asking for an update is perfectly fine. It was more aimed at people on social media with 2 followers and were created that day asking on every single social media post. Fair enough just came in fairly short order after I asked that exact question. Bad timing.

I have some questions to start you off:
1) when will Series 3 preorders begin?
2) have all Series 3 (and maybe Series 4) prototypes been completed and signed off/approved? it seems like a really sensible use of time to get as many future figure designs approved/agreed ready for production to begin when it can
3) did Chella (or Epic) change the factories at any point? there seems to be a distinct difference in the quality of the figures getting better around Hayabusa so I've always wondered if Haystacks and Daddy came from the same factory as Aldis/Ethan/Blue Meanie/Shernoff?
4) can Epic please post something on their website like the Coming Soon page on the Chella site? (and keep it updated regularly ideally....) as that would be an awesome way to reduce the constant "Where's my .....?" type questions we see everywhere
Is this your way of saying you aren’t on Facebook? 😂 Future releases will be discussed so series 3 will be the main meat and veg of the episode. My favourite feature of the Chella website was the “coming soon” bit. That was created by Action Figure Cellar and as he is still part of the Epic team can see this being a feature. That being said the “WhErEs SaBu?!” Questions will still keep coming until release of course I was listening to your pod this week and it’s really good, but considering I asked about Sabu this week, this reply is a bit dickish mate. I paid for it bloody ages ago and have no way of knowing if it’s ever coming, sorry for doing the bare minimum to find out if I’m getting an order.

Honestly if you’re new to collecting I’d advise you to get on the ringside Black Friday sales later in the year. They tend to run new sales each week for 3 weeks and some real steals to be found.
Otherwise when I started I found putting money aside to buy lots saved me a ton, especially if you’re collecting loose.

I’d take a lot of them but went Fuji, Jesse and Haku as my top 3.

The Wolfpack nash from rsc has to be the nash for me.

7 months since this thread started, has the Double J got a prototype? Is it still on the cards?

Issue in Australia is the series they do get are random and way later than RSC so waiting is likely to get you 10% of what you actually want.
Mattel creations selling overseas only is our only real hope of getting close to what the US gets. Why they can add customs to a crowd fund but not open and international page that doesn’t conflict with US stores I’m not quite sure.

Good response Tom.
I don’t watch stuff if I’m not looking to enjoy it. A lot of people should follow suit. You

Lack of legends I was hoping to get when they launched means I’ve ordered all of two figures. Each con and reveal it becomes more apparent they aren’t coming so I slowly stop checking. Not sure what "legends" means to you but the debut looks of Bryan, Omega, Cesaro (if you will), are "legends", no? Not sure how a 3 year old company is expected to give you a bunch of "legends". Serious question: how could they satisfy ya as a consumer (within the limits of reality)? I was hoping for older looks of sting and Jericho, maybe figs of Double A, Tazz, Tully etc. even the Owen Hart was a let down. I guess I see the Mattel board as a good split of modern and current and jazwares only serves one of the bases.

I could never make the sound when they hit Australia and this might be the reason. Imagine learning this 30 years later.

Have we? I genuinely don’t see this.Certainly if Mr Perfect was to have one I’d have wanted his summerslam 91 look when it actually happened. Did the yellow singlet ever get pulled down? Yes. Especially when Angle came back to the WWE. Every other day someone would bring up the canceled Toy Biz TNA Angle that had the pull down straps and ask why Mattel didn’t try it especially on Angle and Taker figures. This isn’t Kurt Angle though.

People have been begging for pull down singlets for years and I don't think it looks bad at all. At least Mattel are doing something different which I welcome. Would you prefer the lame skinny mould he's had for over a decade? Have we? I genuinely don’t see this. Certainly if Mr Perfect was to have one I’d have wanted his summerslam 91 look when it actually happened. Did the yellow singlet ever get pulled down?

I mistakenly thought these were ultimates when first announced and went to order before realizing I have this mankind and the previous dude is better.
This one is a head scratcher.

That Bundy looks more like the new gen bundy than the Mattel which is more like the original if that makes sense to anyone.
I like it a lot.
