Almost everything, they don’t own Marvel. Or Star Wars, or Indiana Jones, or Power Rangers, or Transformers even? I’m pretty sure Hasbro owns transformers.

Haslabs constantly have crowdfunders that fail and they put out new ones. Just because this one failed, doesn’t mean the next ones will Hasbro pretty much owns everything they put out I believe. Mattel has to abide by a license when it comes to wwe. Almost everything, they don’t own Marvel.

What I hypothesized was true. Not enough people care about WCW, and especially at that price point.
Was it a good value? Probably so, the most accurate and life-like entrance stage ever released it looked like. But an entrance stage of a defunct wrestling company from 22 years ago. Much better off trying the Raw is war or Smackdown fist stage. I’m sorry for those who really wanted it, but are you really surprised?

Not a fan of the torso, gives him a barrel chest

Why would I pay the same for less articulation

Rude's might have worked. It might be slightly smaller than how Eddie looked at the time, but it would stand out like the one they have on figure. Then you’d all be complaining about how small his figure is. No, honestly this torso could have worked

W. T. F. 😳 Hopefully, it's not too late for Mattel to change... On a side note - I'd love them to use this skin tone on Hogan, rather than the more orangy one. Seems like it’s too late. They seem pretty far on production and there’s MOC pics. It’s done lol.

Holy hell that Eddie is horrible. That torso is awful and they use it for every “jacked” wrestler. In what world should Eddie Guerrero have the same torso as Triple H, Goldberg, Roman Reigns, and Ultimate Warrior? They should have used the Amazon exclusive HBK torso.

I’m horrified that all of these are Walmart exclusives. I may never get them in hand.

That’s not gonna fix much at all, Atleast in my area. In my area, elites sell. It’s all due to Walmarts crapty distribution. My local Walmart hasn’t had an elite on the pegs for a month or two.

Almost every Seth Rollins figure up until last year. They were all short with small legs.
Elite Rhyno with other arms that weren’t ridiculously cartoonishly big.
Every AJ styles elite with bigger legs and Sin Cara torso.

With all the new unveils of the ruthless aggression ultimates and the new Monday night war line I was really excited about upcoming figures. That’s before I realized this all goes to Walmart. I don’t know about others, but the distribution at my local Walmarts are ing horrible. Online is just as bad. I have not seen any RA figures in my area since series 1. I typically don’t see any elites in my area often, if I do, it’s just scraps of what’s been picked through. I wish the remainder of the RA line would finishing up on Ringside.

Are we talking size or height? Height is the biggest issue with me, but if the ultimates are a tad bit bigger, size wize, it doesn’t bother me.

I’m glad Kurt is back in the line, but God, what an underwhelming figure. He’s worn soooooooo many nice different singlets and they chose one of the blandest ones. We need so many different Kurt figures so I’m glad he’s back in the line.

I’m so glad that greatest hits rereleased that WM14 HBK. That Seth is ridiculous though, they just gave him a new formula, why are they using the old one?

Wow a lot of cool stuff shown.
Just one gripe. Why do we have to get the same Roman with red gauntlet over and over again. He’s in gym shoes and jogging pants like 80% of the time, just give us one of those.

Imagine if this was a Raw stage: “Another Stone Cold UE figure? Lame” “Rock UE? We already have him.” “Undertaker? Why?” “Triple H? What a ripoff.” Could have still worked if the UE were of attires we never got before. The Rock and SCSA in promo attire. ABA Taker, DX Triple H. All of that sounds better than what was offered in the WCW set other than Scott Steiner.
