Has anyone’s store received the first wave of figures? I’ve only seen the ring with Cena/HHH. Not in my area. I was able to get Warrior & Balor off of WM's site, but no single-packs in stores as of yet.

Action Figure Attack Thank you so much for taking the time to answer our questions! I have a topic-related question, a personal question and a comment: 01. This may have already been answered, but is there any chance of Dangerous Danny Davis in wrestling gear? 02. What's your favorite kind of pizza? 03. I ***LOVE*** the MOTWWEU line!!! This is like two of my life-long loves, together at last. Better than Reese's Peanut Butter cups.

Not on any WWE programming, but once on an episode of WCW Thunder nearly 20 years ago.

I voted for Kane!
Ugh, that Big Show will always haunt me. The fig itself is awesome, but back in 2012, I was in Yakima for a WWE house show. I stopped into the TRU they had there, and they had eight of those Big Show figs. Every single one of them had the belts stolen.
So it was just Big Show, smiling like a dope, arms up proudly showing us absolutely nothing. Times eight.

Thanks for sharing!! Big fan of both WWE & MOTU. I ordered the only two that were in stock for me yesterday (Finn & Warrior) for in-store pickup! Looking forward to 'em.

I hate to admit it... but Mat Mania was one of the main reasons I bought a PS4 in the first place. I played the crap out of it in arcades when I was a kid, and was excited to see it on the Arcade Archives list.
That being said, I HATE Coco Savage!!! This dude is the hardest, cheapest guy in the game (and he's not even the final guy you face in the lineup!)!

And to piggy back on this because this resource of a site needs more love. Here's all the times Shawn & Goldust faced each other:
And piggybacking off of THIS, I saw HBK and Goldust wrestle each other int he main event of a house show in Salt Lake City for the World Title. Holy cow, that entire card was pure magic. Also one of the last WWF appearances for the Ultimate Warrior, if I remember right. Here are the full results: Marty Jannetty & Leif Cassidy defeated the Bushwhackers when Leif Cassidy pinned Luke after a trip from Marty Jannetty Savio Vega pinned Owen Hart with a spin kick Marc Mero pinned Hunter Hearst Helmsley Steve Austin pinned Duke Drose The Ultimate Warrior defeated Vader via count-out after 12 minutes when Vader left ringside Henry & Phinneas Godwinn defeated WWF Tag Team Champions the Smoking Gunns via count-out when the champions left ringside Ahmed Johnson defeated Davey Boy Smith via disqualification after Owen Hart interfered and hit Ahmed with his cast The Undertaker pinned Mankind with the tombstone WWF World Champion Shawn Michaels pinned WWF IC Champion Goldust with the superkick WWF 1996 Results

This sounds like a TERRIBLE main event.
Meh, I say Rollins goes over after four Curb Stomps.

The TJ Maxx a couple blocks away from my office (downtown Portland, OR) had a some of B94 for $6 each. 2 X Orton, 2 X Langston & 2 X M.Hardy. The M.Hardys were wearing different shirts ('DELETE' spiral VS. 'Mower of Lawns'). Which is the regular and which is the chase? Mower of Lawns is the chase. Thanks. I bought the DELETE spiral design, as I liked it more.

I loved the Teamsters, but I HATED the end of that match. The entire team gets themselves counted out despite a 5-on-1 advantage? You'd think that any combination of Owen/Anvil/Jarrett could have stayed behind to mop Razor up.

Oh man. Disco Inferno was my boy during the height of WCW. I was live in the crown when he (completely by accident) won the World Television Championship from Alex Wright at Nitro in Salt Lake City in September of '97, and I went totally bananas.
Some of his antics I loved:
Once he was trying to incorporate a new move into his arsenal. He brought the sheet (with diagrams) on how to perform the move with him into the ring, and consulted it while trying to execute it.
I'm pretty sure that it was Sgt. Craig Pittman that he was wrestling against in the mid-90s when he submitted the second Pittman was trying to apply the Code Red armbar. Pittman didn't even get it locked in. After the bell, Disco rolled out of the ring and said into the camera "If he would have slapped that on, I wouldn't have been able to do this!" and did the disco wave-y armed dance move.

Ugh, yes. Twice, and both times flopped hard.
For Halloween '92, I dressed up as Irwin R. Schyster. No one knew who I was. To be fair, I guess he looked like a regular schmo while wrestling (except for the boots)
For Halloween '94, I dressed up as Paul Bearer. Everyone thought that I was Gomez Addams.

Its the best selling toyline of all time I'm confused. The Jakks UFC toyline is really the best selling toyline of all time? How can that be true? And if that's true, why did the line get cancelled with other figures planned? Ha ha, no. I can't remember the exact details, but someone was in here years ago spouting off that the Jakks UFC was the absolute #1 best-selling toy line of all time, BAR NONE... and if I remember correctly was very defensive and argumentative about that statement (obviously without any facts to back it up). It's been a long-running joke here on WFigs since then (much like Chinese New Year).

Yeah, my order was canceled. I had ordered a bunch of Retros.
They sent me an apologetic email stating that it was canceled, and refunded my money to my PayPal account a day later.
But do you know what? It's cool. These things happen. I'm not going to whine or cry, or demand that they owe me something, or complain about 'em on every message board I'm on.
They couldn't fulfill it, so they gave me my money back. I'm out nothing.
I've had place cancel plenty of online orders on me with NO notification. Heck, once I got an email & app notification from a Target across town that my order was ready for pick up, so I drove over there. Once there, they couldn't find my order in the system. It had been canceled on their end, but the notifications went out anyway. About an hour later, I got an email from Target stating when I should expect my refund, because *I* canceled the order??? (It was, at the time, a highly-sought after thing, so I suspect that an employee just decided to keep it for himself)
TL;DR version: Yes, my order was canceled. No, it's not worth having a fit over.
