He said they have only been doing wwe figures for 6 months....? He said "yes big hair" to Tim's "does Andre have the big fro going on?"...? He said they are releasing Million Dollar Man with the belt soon (been out at my K-mart for 3 weeks+)....? Seems the guy has his info wrong Mattel has been working on wwe since before 2010 with a January 1 st release date putting us ( at time of interview) 8 + months at retail and almost a year in planning and production. Andre clearly does NOT have a fro. So all the info we just received (its safe to assume) is all sorts of mixed up.

Can you learn how to write before posting? You have a point but you do not know how to write a sentence.

if i remember correctly he said "about 6 months" meaning they have been in stores for 6 months....he was off by 1 month...not really a big deal
They did this interview the day before summerslam...Entrance Greats DiBiase didn't hit MY area until last week. He probably just forgot about Andre's hair. I think he has more important things on his mind.
that interview was better than any single interview Jakks ever did with Tim about their lines
a guy with a username of "mattelyayjakksnay" shouldn't be bashing anything Mattel does.

And maybe the guy didn't come on in the very beginning of the Mattel line.

Thanks for clarifying Chip. In my opinion, the increase in wfigs exposure through Mattel is diminishing the quality of discussion on the board. I propose two suggestions. A defined area where competent older collectors can speak about quality topics of discussion or the implementation of additional rules. The banter is becoming ridiculous.

i watched the interview a little while ago. i believe the guy said that andre "has a little bit of a fro going on" i take that as he misunderstood the question and didnt know it was asking about the really big fro andre used to have. as for everything else im pretty should he cant remember release dates right off the top of his head so maybe he misspoke a bit.

How can anybody look at that Andre and still have anything negative to say? Stop trying so hard to nit pick and just enjoy yourself.

I realize after a few months of Mattel I should change my name.For the idiot who comments onmy writing , get a life. This is a forum not a essay for college. I'm just pointing out this guy has not got a clue nor does half the people who speak on behalf of Mattel. Look back to SDCC look at the tags in front of LEGENDS series three and four (note the due out dates) .....Then go to ringsidecollectibles and see when they are due out according to pre-order. They're all messed up at Mattel.I guess I'm the only one here who picks up on little things and calls it to others attention.Nit picking?Maybe , but I have a right to state my opinion now don't I?

Also there are things that say subject to change, products need to be pushed back sometimes, also, I just looked, there were no tags or dates in the SDCC pictures. And we all see these little things, but guess what, we have lives and don't care about stupid petty stuff like this so as you said to the guy about the writing, get a life, also you will be criticized on everything you do on here, get used to it.

Well he didn't take over the Mattel WWE brand until after Toy Fair. Because they introduced him as the guy who was taking over for the original guy (PJ) at the NYC Toy Fair at the end of Feb. So he's been in charge of the WWE brand for 6 months.
M$M just showed up at my area 2 weeks ago. And in the interview he said in their current Entrance Greats line there is a M$M title. So where was the problem there? He didn't say either way if it was coming or out. He just said it was coming with the title.
Shipping schedule - the cards at SDCC just had one of the 4 seasons (Winter/Spring/Summer/Fall) and either 2010 or 2011 And I didn't see any tags in the pics for Legends 3 or 4 as to what quarter they were shipping. I'm sure they do ship when they said, but once they get to the various ports they need to be sent to the various stores distribution centers who then ship them to the stores. So that's on the stores as to when they put out the new product.
Yes he got Andre wrong, but maybe they are making more than one and they showed one for a future lineup by mistake.

Get a life? I have one. I am sorry you do not like constructive criticism. However, your argument is false, the premises to your argument are weak and you do not know how to write a sentence. I am being honest. I hope you recognize your weaknesses and improve on them so you are not perceived as the idiot in the future. On the subject at hand, Mattel does a great job interacting with fans. You can not discredit Mattel's honesty and accountability. Enrique even publicly apologized to the fans, in the interview, regarding his inaccurate comments about Mattel figure belts. No entity or individual is perfect. I suggest you come back when you learn how to write and form logical arguments.

Maybe to him Andre does have a little fro? He said the scan was one of the best yet and he was right about that!
