Something that they have MOC and it won’t release for another 8 months.

Since the new generation arenas are shipping I wonder when this next one will be revealed. Maybe ringside fest

Got mine yesterday. I was super impressed with the scale and details Mattel put into this. The ring is so big that my wife and I built it, realized there was no space to display it, had to disassemble it and put it back in the box. We also noticed the ring ropes sit a little higher is comparison to a figure than the actual ring ropes would sit with a wrestler. For example, the top ring rope would come up about 4 inches under Hulk Hogans Pecs but this set with a Hulk Hogan figure comes up just over the bottom of his pecs. Small thing, but something I noticed. Also, does anyone know how stop the auto-shutoff on the entrance? My lights turn off after about 5 minutes. I feel like that can’t nail both the rope height and the size of the ring. I think the height of the ropes on the ASR is perfect, yet the ring is humongous. The main event raw ring that came with goldberg, the ring ropes sit way too low and the ring is small. This ultimate ring seems like the perfect size, yet the ring ropes are too high again

How do you know exactly how many of these you need and still have some on backorder? What a joke (if it's true). They should have waited until all were available before starting to mail them out. I can't even be upset, it just makes me laugh and shake my head. It’s either 1 of 2 things. 1) They’re still trying to sort and ship 8,000+ packages and just don’t have the manpower to ship these all out at once, which is understandable. 2) They don’t have all 8,000 made and some have yet to arrive on U.S. soil to begin sorting and shipping.

Got ahold of customer service at mattel creations. They told me my order has been back-ordered til sometime between August 30th-September 30th. that's great. backed it on July 23 and have to wait another month ? Same it’s pretty disappointing that I might have to wait over a month. Especially when I backed it early.

Ordered on day 7,still nothing. If you ordered first you’re getting yours first? Is that how this goes? Absolutely not. I ordered well before the campaign ended. There’s some users that bought way after and got there’s first. I have no idea what makes some come earlier or later.

No
Time to put it on fresh talent. He’s had title reigns and none of them were good. I don’t think Sheamus is bad at all, but he’s exactly where he should be in the mid-card, occasionally in the main event. Gunther vs Sheamus is a fantastic match.

Not gonna lie, from the original pics I thought the boards were individual wood (plastic) planks so you could pull them up one by one...kinda let down a little bit its just a chunk of plastic molded in what looks like 3 sections. I kinda picked up on that when I zoomed in on the original proto pics. If they they were individual wooden planks that would get super messy and unstable

Mattel creations still says my order is just confirmed. Nothing on fedex yet.
I’m a sad boy.

Mentioned it a while ago, but have to again recommend reading through the early pages of this thread. To think there was so much negativity and doubt about this set - some of it very justifiable - to knowing that it is now shipping out to people's homes is pretty incredible. Even if you aren't a New Generation fan, this project was super important as its success opened the door to other big projects in the future. If we ever get an Attitude Era Raw set or a classic SmackDown! "fist" stage it's going to be because of this guinea pig. My exact thoughts now. I didn’t grow up during the new generation. But as an avid collector I knew by backing this it would open the door for many other projects that I’d back. Was willing to bite the bullet, but even then, still a cool set.

For those that got shipping info, did fedex send you info? If not how did you get it?
