Man, I wish Ultimate Sgt. Slaughter had been as easy to get as Ali!

Save money? Nah. All my favorite stuff is Monday Night Wars, which means I'll be paying triple MSRP if I want to get them.

Toss in a mustache head as well and I'm there! Actually, I'd be there regardless, but I'm ready for the return of the 'stache.

I dunno, I think they are getting far more efficient in screwing customers over! Of course nothing has changed with Wal

Order now, cancel later! (Or not...) Personally delighted about getting a Wrestlemania 2 Andre Elite. I guess that possibly rules him out of being in the next Coliseum Collection series. So far, three figures that have been in demand and on alot of lists of fans - Hulk Still Rules, Ultimate Warrior Summerslam 1991 and Razor Ramon Wrestlemania X. What I don't like about these Amazon releases is, it's like make your mind up now - do you want the figure now or not? Otherwise it will be a struggle to get like The Undertaker/Gobbledy Gooker two pack. Sometimes I like to process if I want a figure or not and not rush straight into getting it.

Maybe it'll get turned into a Walmart exclusive just so they can re-cancel it.

Walmart is dumpster-fire comedy. I'll continue to preorder, but I do not expect to ever receive anything.

Man, this is definitely some kind of record. At least they aren't even pretending they're gonna fulfill Brock and RVD. JFC.

Finally, after screwing customers over for so long, they've decided to just give us the figures for free! That's so nice of them!

Yeah, the product page itself is not helpful. Looks like they're tomorrow. It’s just saying out of stock for me

Yep, just got my notice for E104 and "Best Of" Cody.

A new MVP and it's...in black yet again. How have we not gotten Mattel figures of his purple or red outfits? Do they not remember when everyone was chanting "Power Ranger" because he was so colorful???

I can't believe that Walmart is still taking orders for camo Edge months after it went up. But then again, I suppose you can take as many orders as you want if you never have any intention of fulfilling them...

Hi Steve, is it possible to share any insights about the Wal-Mart exclusives, specifically Superstars 4 & 5 and the Ruthless Aggression series that had the preorder cancellations recently? By that, I mean will Wal-Mart still be offering these figures in the US at all? Will they be in-store only? Will they be making them available online again in the future? Or is there a chance they will have a new home? Thanks for your time!

Man, I wanna see this thing get funded but I spent all my money on aftermarket Superstars after Walmart cancelled my orders! (Kidding!) It's more of a space issue that stopped me from jumping in right away, but I'm sorely tempted if it means pushing this sucker over the finish line.

Yep, I have that one and I love it. I meant them as a duo though; hard to call it "Team Xtreme" without a matching Matt! (Let alone a Lita to go with 'em!) Hardys. I can't believe we never got Team Extreme versions in Elite form while they were under contract. I think the only old-school version we got was the "New Brood" 2-pack. They made a Team Xtreme Jeff Hardy. He was in the 2-pack with Triple H.

For me, the answer is always Shawn. But Cody is a close second, followed by Mankind. I don't feel like I need that Bret, but the slipcase for the set won me over.

If anyone at Mattel wants to distribute the now-cancelled Wal-Mart stock through Ringside, that'd be pretty swell. I'm just sayin'.
