Despite the knee pads, I still really love that HBK overall. One of my all time fave attires and this is by far the best fig version we’ve gotten. I also really love that Bret attire and the fact that the jacket is so different than the others released

To me it’s Mr. Perfect. If anyone ever need a dedicated torso mold just to him it’s that guy. And they need to be way more tan

The UE line is amazing but I def feel sometimes the butterfly joints make the figures look like some kind of robot cyborg version of the wrestler. Pumped for the Defining Moments. Wish HBK had knee pads but overall love the fig and attire.

WM12 HBK needs a stellar Mattel fig. The Entrance Greats is fine but a basic, the elite has no knee pads, no entrance gear….it’s technically elite but seemed bare bones and rushed. If anything I dig the Hall of Champions 2-pack with Bret Hart because the deco is solid and you get Bret Hart in WM12 attire and accessories.
But the look really needs an Ultimate or Elite with a special head scan for the event, entrance gear, etc and knee pads

Lots of opinions but there are a million different opinions on how this could have been done. The stage is a thing of beauty and it's cool to even have this thing possibly produced. I backed three of the New Gen set because New Gen is my nostalgia sweet spot. I didn't back this but only because WCW of this era doesn't have the weight the WWF set did as WWF was my jam back then. I hope this gets backed and I still think there is a good chance atlwast the stage and Rey will.be made.

My two favorite eras are late New Gen into Attitude (like mid 95-mid 98) and RA 02-08.
Also really dig WWF 90-93

I love the crowd funding idea but def admit as much as I've always fantasized about giant sets like they're doing, realistically, I only want so many huge huge items due to space and storage.
I got the New Gen set because it's a nostalgia sweet spot. I also got the Raw ring w Kane for the same reasons. I love this Nitro stage but I was a WWF head during that era so it's not necessary for me, especially because it's a huge set and I'm more likely.to display my WWF stuff so this may.just sit in a box.
I definitely think they have the right idea going. I just hope they are able to continue so incase a large set comes that I want, I have the option to buy

Very pumped for this series. It's been too long since we've had a full on elite/ultimate of 97 Bret. (Technically the elite 2 pack w Goldberg the Bret attire is the same as Badd Blood 97 flag tag match so it can work for that).
I understand that the molded jacket is a feature of the UE but I'd much prefer a soft goods jacket like the original and upcoming DMs. Either way if they nail the attire it's gonna be a great fig and a must have.
I've always wanted a detailed version of 96/97 Roddy. Always dug that look/era of him.

I think the the Takeover UE is the best. That scan/sculpt really looks like late 95/early 96 hbk. Honorable mentions to WM14 HBK and the RSC/Legends

Yeah, I'm trying in my head to figure out what they were thinking or what this could build to but phew.....it seemed like perfect timing. I feel like it's almost HBK.not winning at Mania 12 or Austin not winning at 14. This really seemed like the most perfect moment to have Cody win the title.and it didn't happen. I know he will eventually.win it but it's hard to imagine any moment of him winning the title to be able to match this

Raw stage looks amazing. The towers need to be taller and I'm sure if it gets further along we will see a little more detail and a ramp etc. It'll really comes down to the figures included with that. If it comes with a really cool exclusive 97 HBK attire or a Bret Hart attire from that era I may have to Atleast back one.
Love the WM38 Austin

Love that they're doing Survivor Series 02 HBK. I was at MSG for that one and even though it's a really weird attire it'd cool to have in Elite format.
Also love jeans Bulldog and Lawler
