don’t forget Nicholas was in a bigger crowd than Ali ever was! Yes! Nicky should’ve been the SDCC exclusive. Would’ve sold out 3 minutes before it went live. Or a Legends Ultimate Edition... such a waste having him as a BAF. |

I’ve gotten lucky and landed all the SDCC exclusives I’ve tried for (Mr. T/No Holds Barred/Ali). I over slept on Slaughter but wasn’t collecting at the time. All you have to do to get any is camp out in the page and refresh at 12:00, Got all mine no muss no fuss. I did that last year and it had still sold out once it was my turn... |

Yeah absolutely glad for the people that wanted Ali. I'm over hear waiting for piper/animal preorder since fall is around the corner 😁 I don't think the last 2 have sold out yet, so there shouldn't be any problem there. (...famous last words...) |

Well that kinda pisses me off. I can easily order Ali if I wanted to still, but the Hogan/Zeus was such a pain in the ass. Its because wrestling fans want a Hulk Hogan figure and have clammored for a Zeuz figure for years No one asked for Ali. You may have wanted Ali when you saw it, but no one wanted it.
If you quote this and say you did, you are a liar. ...I'm sure I've asked for Ali (and Tyson) at various points... |

HELP!!! I keep getting a rotate action when I complete the order. What should I do? I got that too... it should say the approx. time left though (underneath)? |

I had to go through a Captcha - and a bank security check - but thankfully got an Ali. Yay!!

Yeah... it might just be a cost-cutting thing for those display pieces. They're definitely going to be shiny though... check out the pics on RSC. That doesn’t necessarily mean anything. We saw MOC pics of legends Taker with black hair and different gloves and the moc product hitting shelves has brown hair and the inaccurate MMA gloves ...they'll be shiny. Trust me 😉. |

How many hours til Ali? Figure he may be good trade bait. Two and a half. |

Bret, like young Edge, just seems to be too hard to capture for this design team. On another note, with so many Andres, but none in blue trunks, that makes me think they are saving that look for this line. I’d love that Andre with Studd in this line! They did do a blue trunks/afro Andre about 5 years ago... I think it was an Amazon exclusive. |

...do you mean Series 17 (Seth and Andre) and Series 18 Orton? Nope….19 (D’lo, Kama, Taker etc) landed a while ago and now sellers have series 20 (Perfect, Greg, M$M, Triple H) in hand and shipping. Ah, my bad... for some reason, I thought you meant Ultimates 🤦♂️. |

I'm just annoyed that 90%+ of things I want are (US) store exclusives... it's bad enough when it's only one or two figures - but lately it's complete lines! (Ruthless Aggression Elites & Ultimates, MNW Elites & Ultimates... Not to mention things like the Hogan 3-pack and no doubt that 4-pack). I'm close to calling it a day, to be honest... it's becoming more hassle/less fun every year.

I thought they were scraping the bottom of the barrel with the toddler Dominic BAF. I was wrong. Nicholas has won more championships in WWE than Jake Roberts, Dusty Rhodes, Bam Bam Bigelow, Hacksaw Jim Duggan, Big John Studd, Paul Orndorff, King Kong Bundy, Sting, and Jake Paul combined. ...you're just depressing me now... 🤣 |

? They're definitely shiny... RSC showed the MIB pics. the image from comic con of them in the package shows flat though Yeah... it might just be a cost-cutting thing for those display pieces. They're definitely going to be shiny though... check out the pics on RSC. |

Hmmm... I'm pleased we're getting them, but I would have released them quite a bit down the line, personally. I was really hoping for 2 first time UE Legends... we'll already have 3 Bret Ultimates by the time this set comes out, while there are a lot of Legends/LJN era that haven't had any.

I may have missed it - but did they announce which version of Seth won the UE fan-vote?

Really pleased with what was shown...
- Foley 3-pack
- UE Mankind (finally!!)
- UE Yokozuna x2
- UE Asuka
- Bret & Anvil CC
- DX, Ali & BJS Retros
- 2 Paul Bearer's
Only slight let-down was another Roman and Bray in UE20 - I'd have preferred 2 new Ultimates instead: a Legend, then someone like Sami, KO, Miz, Drew, or Sheamus...

My buddy is saying he saw another company is putting out the ultimate style WM 7 Savage? And he’s not talking about Zombie’s Heels & Faces. Said he saw it in 1 of the Facebook groups but can’t remember which. Anyone know what he’s talking about? ...does he own a toy shop? If not, I wouldn't pay much attention to him. |
