I disagree myself. I think overall Mattel is releasing the best wrestling figures weve ever had. There are always gonna be people wanting certain wrestlers or attires and being annoyed at those certain figures not happening but that is inevitable. You cant please everyone but we get some pretty amazing variety overall. They made figures of the friggin Shark, Yankem and convention sign bearing Virgil. That is pretty crazy if you think about it, those are some deep cuts. There are some rough moves they make (goldberg and jinder being w expensive rings) but theyre still a business trying to maximize profits and I cant really argue w the logic, even if it does tick some people off. We have some amazing flashback oriented exclusive series as well from Target, Walmart, Gamestop etc. honestly, my only real complaint is I wish the exclusive store series were distributed better. Anyway, I love the way the line is going as a whole. I have so many impressive Mattel figures in my Collection and there are some upcoming Im super excited about so Im still fully enjoying collecting, and Ive been collecting since late 96.

Just Kane for me but all are pretty cool. The skin tone w Simmons is almost comical at this point tho

Love all the figs but......all these years HBK, who always has deco on his knee pads NEVER EVER gets it but then this Jericho gets fancy decoed knee pads when they were actually plain. It’s almost like a sick prank

I dig Edge, I don’t think the scan is nearly as bad as most say. I also want a Rollins in newish attire but that scan needs to stop being used as it looks odd and outdated and, as someone else stated, the red should have some shininess/glossy type quality and the matte look just makes it seem like not the right attire to me.

I dig the Orton but will only pay retail. The prices hes going for are insane, especially when in my history of fig Collecting ive seen so many elite Ortons shelfwarm thru the years its not even funny..... and they dont look THAT different from each other

Angle just because of price. The entrance greats thing is way too expensive. The concept of a stand playing some of a theme music seems almost outdated. Nowadays anyone can jist pull up the theme song on youtube amd play it while havin a fig entrance and the jacking up of the price is overboard. I dig the fig itself but the upcoming elite Angle is better n a better value

It is a big moment but maybe underwhelming as a set since we have so many Sheild and non Sheild versions of these guys. As some others have stated, Id like a more unique set like MSJ because we don’t have those attires in Mattel versions yet

Awesome stuff dude and great set up. I also love Predator and horror, those set ups look bad ass

Hogan is wwf/e. The guy is a cornerstone of what makes wrestling what it is; regardless if that makes people pissed or not. Hogan is an ultimate piece of the wrestling we see today. So many wrestlers have sordid histories. If any of us knew every personal detail of any of our favorites it could be enough to hate them forever but that’s not the point. The entity of Hulk Hogan on TV is what matters and it is important as a wrestling fan

Not a ring buyer here, but I am curious as to what makes this ring so desirable? What's the differences between this 2010 OG vs the more recent elite or actual scale rings? It was really only desirable before the WCT version came out..... once that was regular (using the exact same mold) most hardcore collectors didnt care anymore since we had a good new ring. I have this ring, its pretty cool but the WCT rings are essentially the same
