Heya Steve =) Thank you for the amazing Coliseum Collection line. Random question: is the size of the box the same size as the Hogan/Zeus UE 2-pack?

First time Ultimate Damien included. He’s fully poseable. Will he come with a more detailed paint application? Oh yeah, Damien looks fantastic.

Hey Steve, Thanks for taking the time to do the video last night. Any chance of doing a Bret Hart from Survivor Series 1993 when he didn't wear his tights, but a singlet? Just thinking of a few possibilities we can use with that figure! Thanks for everything you do! I’ve been trying for years to make that one happen. Won’t give up.

Hi Steve, Mattel has a long term plan for real scale ring like a single wave per year? For example a smackdown 2002 scale ring with brock lesnar UE form If this RAW ring does well then yes, that’s the plan.

If you were to do another ultimate steve austin, is it possible we could get more new scans of him Sure. A new head sculpt or two would make another Ultimate Austin even more worthwhile.

I noticed with the Mr America figure that we’re getting 2 new hogan scans and the one with the mask pulled up looks really good for an early 2000s hogan. My question is, is that same scan gonna be used again without the mask entirely We’d need to sculpt it as a proper non-masked head but maybe this could be used as a starting point.

If someone has recently gotten a figure in the Superstars line, does that make them less likely for a retro and vice versa? Or is that really a non-issue since they're separate lines and they live in separate retail spaces? Non-issue.

Steve thx for IG video last night. I noticed the retros behind you so was wondering who else will be with Jerry Lawler in Wave 4 ? Is there a theme of like guys from New Gen Era ? Also, what are the chances of a second orange card set( JJ, Mo, Mable, Booger) ? I’d estimate wave 4 being fully announced during WrestleMania Axxess at the very latest. There is a loose era theme to that wave. We’re going to reserve orange cards for “lost” figs. We’ll see what else we can do pending talent availability.

Hey Steve! Are any more pop up stages planned? Will tag team belt packs ever be considered? Thank you! Wicked Cool did those pop up stages, not Mattel. Nothing in the pipeline like that at the moment just yet. Up for any type of belt pack execution if the retail demand is really there to support them.

Hey Steve is UE 16 coming for Xmas or will aj grace us in 2023 ? I don’t think that’ll happen. Ringside hasn’t even put the wave up for pre-order yet.

Tre-freaking-mendous. I’m all in on these. First Ultimate Jake, first Ultimate Rude. I’m actually kind of psyched to get an arguably plain Rude as an Ultimate since it matches the Hasbro. Would’ve been fun to have Cheryl on the tights though. I only wish they’d done an ultimate Damien with numerous points of articulation 🤣 🐍 First time Ultimate Damien included. He’s fully poseable.

Are there any plans to update or change the Legends packaging any time soon to the current elite packaging or even something different? Also, I'm curious as to why there aren't any black card chase versions for the Coliseum Collection like there was with Sgt Slaughter? It seemed to be a pretty big hit at the time.. To me, there are two primary options for Legends packaging to consider; 1. keep it as-is or 2. modernize structure a bit while pushing as many elements back to the year one execution as possible. We’ll see how things pan out over time. We did the black carded Slaughters to amp up the item to ensure it was truly SDCC level. We can keep that execution in our back pocket for special occasions with Coliseum Collection if needed.

When will we see an updated look at Elite 100? Possibly before the end of the year.

With the 10 year anniversary of the formation of The Wyatt Family coming up next year, are you able to release a figure of Luke Harper with Bray and Erick Rowan? This would be cool but it won’t be possible. Luke’s estate has a deal with AEW and Rowan isn’t currently with WWE.

Does the team have a grail list of what LJN guys that haven't had a modern figure they would like to get in the line. Jakks got close with Outback Jack. Would there ever be a way to get Tatsumi Fujinami in the line if he's available, or is he still considered to obscure? If you do a homage referee in the Coliseum Collection line since he was genereic is that do able, Not sure if we’d do the generic ref given the limited drops but who knows. While a little more on the unlikely side, I wouldn’t 100% rule out Tatsumi under the precisely right circumstances if he was available to us. I’ve been pretty vocal of my desire to add OMG to the line. Would really love a Slick fig as well. And honestly I’d recreate the whole LJN line if I could.

The Mattel Creations Launch Calendar has a WWE offering listed for the 30th. Is that the Attitude Era Ring? There won’t be a WWE drop that day.

I know the coliseum funk attire matches the ljn poster but could you provide some insight as to why he doesn't match the figure unlike hogan and jake? Also will rude be packaged with his robe on? If so and if possible can you make sure his attire is visible for moc collectors? Told the story on IG live. It’s up on my feed if you’re interested.

Zeus will return to the Mattel line. Will Hogan as Rip return to the Mattel line? Slightly less certain than Zeus but possibly.
