That is the Bill I would love to get on some of these Q & A’s. He let his guard down just a little, and it was a real joy to listen to
Thanks op for bringing this up and thanks to whoever linked the podcast

Bought all but Seth at GameStop yesterday (along with several Marvel and Star Wars items). All were 25% off with the purchase of a $2 bag. So they were right at $10 each Happy to have 3/4 of that set finished

Ordered 2 belt packs and DX HBK
Qualified for free shipping
Not really a real deal but I would have bought them for full price anyway. So saved a few dollars
Definitely seen better sales though

I don't know why we haven't gotten Backlund yet. Didn't he get scanned? I know i remember seeing a picture of him getting scanned like a year ago I think it was determined that was for those weird little statues that look like they are made of sand Think Bill said at some point they didn’t scan him (maybe?) |

I’ve been looking for these HOF figures a week straight now. No luck yet
In the process of hunting I did find all of E53 and the NXT series 2, so I picked those up. But man I can’t wait to get Diesel, Piper and Jake

Off the top of my head
1 - DM Savage
2 - E51 Scott Hall
3 - E50 Warlord
4 - E48 Cactus Jack
5 - NS AJ Styles
Honorable Mentions
NS Finn
E49 Brutus The Barber
E50 Baron Corbin
E47B Goldust
List Jericho
RSC Shano Mac
EDIT***
Was really just thinking the 6” scale
My real favorites from Mattel this year are as follows
1 - Retro 2 Kane
2 - Retro 2 Sting
3 - Retro 1 Undertaker
4 - Retro 1 Roman Reigns
5 - Retro 2 Triple H
Then comes the 6” stuff!

These were stocked at my area TRU’s,Targets, WalMarts and Walgreens way back when...so it’s odd to see them at my WalMarts again so many months later. I didn’t look to closely at the displays, but I wonder which Triple H they are getting? The original large pads or the running change short pads? I don’t ever remember seeing E37 thru E43 at any Target near me. They went from E36. Nothing for seemingly a year, then E44 I could stand one case of these, but not an entire shipper. I’d pick up Woods, Nasty’s, Sami and maybe a Kidd |

Saw it and loved MOST of it. I enjoyed the humor and really liked the scenes with Dr Strange
What I could have done without is everything involving Hulk, Sakaar, Grandmaster, all of it. Did not like Hulk/Banner in this movie at all.
Being such a big part of the movie, it’s hard for me to rank it that high in the grand scheme of the MCU stuff. But when I think back I really enjoyed Thor, Loki, Korg (LOVED!), Hela, Skurge, Heimdall, Valkyrie was alright.
My top 5
Guardians 2
Guardians 1
Civil War
Age of Ultron
probably Ragnarok

MattelDesignTeamCan we please get some clarification on the Retro line? Is this ‘Series 3’ that RSC has now? Only 4 figures? Or 6 like the others? Is it supposed to be available at all retail outlets (not just Wal Mart). Other series coming? When? Exclusive’s? We went from the SDCC interview acting as if they were the hottest line out there, to no showing at RSF and no real answers in the Q & A

All us ‘Flashbsck/Legends’ collectors, just think of it this way. I know I would have ended up buying Larry Z if Matty would have offered him (for $30 shipped, granted he would’ve had his jacket). So I look at it as I get my guy plus 2 decent looking figures (Hall & Nash) and one trash Elite (Eddie) for $10 more right now
That’s the ONLY way I could justify to myself to buy this horribly put together 4 pack LOL
I wonder who was originally planned to go in this set?
Hall, Nash, Hogan & Syxx maybe? NWO theme Has it ever been acknowledged? Because after the first two issues with 4 packs, this one looks like it was put together to TRY and warm harder than the first two

Used it on HOF4 Edge yesterday. Great figure
We won’t see HOF5 anytime soon until long after that coupon goes away

I love how this figure looks. Problem is I can’t find it to preorder. Anyone pm me or just tell me exactly what to type to find it
I’ve tried all the obvious searches and seen nothing

Are we to assume the DM line is dead for the 2nd time?
I know I had #1 of 2017 (Flair) in hand last Thanksgiving. We haven’t even seen #1 of 2018, so I guess it’s being replaced with Entrance Greats?

My favorite is definitely the Shawn Michaels RSE
But I will be buying every Elite shown today with the exception of Brutus WM 34 Elite, NXT3 Roman And NXT3 Rusev
I also said I was done with Basics, but I will be getting the entire Build A Fink wave if it ever hits stores
This was so much better (to me) than SDCC
Great job MDT

Thanks for the list. Very helpful. One thing I noticed (and I could be wrong, the 2016 WM32 Basically Eddie is a direct rerelease of the old WM Heritage Eddie)
Not nitpicking, just that figure, I remember being pissed when it came out. I was hoping for a different look than before

My closest Wal Mart has been on point the last year or so. Got in E44, E45, skipped E46, E47A & B, never got E48 and WM33 Series shipper, and then multiple cases of E49, E50, E51,E52. TNF3’s have been rolling in too. Only thing I’ve had a real problem with is Retro Series 2
Of course Target and TRU are horrible. No consistency at all with WWE
I’ve noticed though out of the 4 lines I collect, this Wal Mart is great with WWE Elites and Marvel Legends. Horribly inconsistent with Star Wars Black 6” and DC Multiverse (Luckily Target picks up the slack in those two lines for me)
