Foley is one of those guys I'll keep buying, but if they were done with him right now, I'd be fine with what we have already. If they do end up doing him from No Way Out, I'll go the extra mile to get that one signed since it's my favorite Foley match of all time, or at least tied with the Mind Games match. Isnt that just the first RSC Cactus Jack but with a flannel? Yes, and you have to swap one of the arms because it's missing wrist tape. I have a fixup loose but if they release it MOC from the match I'll get it to get signed.

Instead of fixing Dibiase's height, they made IRS 5'10. Brilliant...

I honestly don’t care if this match is great or not. Just need Mattel to make Punk in that gear.

I found the new Piper Basic at Target. The They Live head with the blonde hair works a lot better for 92 Piper imo.

Usually when Bill says something along these lines, it definitely surprises us but it's not something we were asking to get. Like Ali in a wrestling line. I would absolutely love Lance Storm with the Canadian US Title. Other than that, I can't even really think of a belt I want that would be unexpected. We need the Light Heavyweight belt but that's a thing we've all asked about numerous times. Either of the ECW World Titles that predated the Taz title would be really amazing. That's not what I'm expecting, though. I'd say Rock n Wrestling or Nitro are really good guesses on the anniversary. We're already getting the MNW line, though. So unless they're going to sign a bunch of WCW people like Alex Wright, Bagwell, Bull Nakano, and Johnny B Badd, not sure how much mileage they could get out of any kind of celebration. Andy Kaufman with the Intergender belt would be a huge surprise and definitely a figure high up on my most wanted list. That would by hysterical and I would buy it. Not sure if the demand is very high but I'd love to see it.

We needed the Python Power bandana and we got it on a shirt instead...

Mr. Perfect is an absolute icon of the business, and he deserves a figure in every line Mattel makes. Unfortunately, they've butchered a ton of his figures. Too tall, too thin, too pasty, an absolutely ridiculous embarrassment of a rubber top.
Should Perfect get an UE? Absolutely. Will it turn out to be a Picasso of poor part choices? Probably.

Was this a preorder? If so, what's the ship date? No. In stock. I got mine today.

Dang, I was too late. Bartman is a must-have. Try adding it on the Walmart app. It’s still showing as available for me. Might be my location though.

Probably a C+ or B- for me. Some really fun stuff like Golga, Bron with his entrance piece, and Retro Liz and Sherri. 98 Booker was probably my favorite thing shown, and then Legends Carlito as far as future releases. But no new Legends names hurt this one. Jerry Lynn from Jazwares was my favorite wrestling figure reveal of the weekend, and Toni Storm, BCG Jay White, and Jay Lethal are must gets. The Sting reveals were great too. If you were to have told me ahead of time I'd be equally or more excited for Jazwares figures than Mattel after SDCC, I would have told you to take your meds. But I think that speaks more to being underwhelmed by Mattel and the rereleases and repeat characters than anything else.

Kerry's PowerTown figure is amazing. Highly recommended. I definitely wanted more Tornado figures from Mattel, but at least we got a couple of Kerry from them, and PowerTown making figures of him is a win.
I get that we want this stuff to be all in universe with Mattel, but speaking for myself, anyone making figures of guys like Raven, Franchise, and Jerry Lynn in 2024 is a massive win to me. Hopefully Jazwares can make a 90s Taz here soon too. Zombie is giving us our second Chris Candido figure in 25 years, let's just enjoy it. PowerTown has a great roster of throwback characters that Mattel likely isn't ever going to make. So take advantage of it if that's the era you enjoy. Boss Fight is putting out an awesome looking Vampiro. Mitch just made The Quebecers and they're incredible. It's really great out there imo, outside of absolute dog water clowns like Rush Collectibles.

That would be a complete waste. Let Predator fans collect Predator figures. We have Nada from They Live, the Scorpion King, Andre from The Six Million Dollar Man... not really that far fetched to ask for more crossover figures if Mattel can work out the licensing. Probably a lot more complicated since Disney owns Predator, but it would still be a fun figure that Predator fans never got from NECA. But that's fine if you don't want to be a sexual tyrannosaurus.

Golga and Hak both rule but we should have also seen some version of Pump from 98-01.
You could tell me Rick or Scott either one did something crazy and got dropped from their Legends deal at any point, and I would be 0% shocked. I wish Mattel was operating with more urgency with them. I'm still pretty confused as to why the Scott Elite didn't match the era of the Rick. If we already had a 99 Scott I'd be a lot less stressed about the entire situation.
