I like the Fenix a lot, but that Penta is ridiculously awesome. How much does BF charge for shipping for one figure, anyone know? $11.20. It was $87.18 for the pair shipped. That's why I was trying to hang tight for Big Bad but I said screw it. Big Bad charges tax. It would be around $81 with tax for just the figures plus $4 shipping unless you already have a pile of loot going with Big Bad. I think if I did my math correctly it's only about a $2 difference. And that wasn't worth splitting hairs over for me. All of this assuming Big Bad even puts them up, of course. Plus, Big Bad may raise the price to $50. They did that with some of the S7 MOTU figures. Hoping $11 isn't their default shipping price. Not sure if I'd like to pay that for only the one figure. |

I guess I'll find out next round since I just want Konnan from wave 2. $49 for one figure is steep. I'm sure they're going to be amazing in-hand but Mattel UE figures were just on sale at Target for like $24. That's a tough space to compete in when you're double the price per figure. |

I do understand all that goes into this. Not being at retail puts more of the cost on us...but as cool as that figure is, there's a limit to HOW cool it is when you look at the cost. Im behind the times. Who and what has been announced besides Wave 1? Wave 2 is Konnan and Lady Maravilla Wave 3 is Tinieblas Jr. and Laredo Kid They're also doing dolls, blind boxed masks, and mini figures. I think that's all that's been announced thus far. |

Ordered the complete set earlier today. Didn't even realize that would make me eligible for autographed figure art sheets. Those would be cool to own, but they're not my motivation for ordering. My shipping only came to $9.84. Not sure if I'll get anything else after this, but I am optimistic about the quality. Hopefully everything comes in around the same time next summer.

I’m guessing the shipping goes by zone. So probably cheaper based on where you live. |

The price if kind of high for me, but they don't come out until 2020, so I can put some money back and get both figures and accessory sets. Smaller company, bigger the cost. If these take off maybe they can get some distribution and get into stores. One can hope right.

I ordered one of both. I'm very excited for these, I'm hoping the preorder does well and they invest into more wrestlers. Eventually they will release repaints of both Pentagon & Fenix, any specific outfits you'd like to see? Here are some I'd want;  At least one alternative head for Fenix that matches Pentagon.
Depending on how they quality of the figures are once I have them in my hands, I'd buy a double pack of them if they had matching attire or completely different looking repaints.

Figs look great. The crotch piece of fenix makes me feel the legs wont be able to go up very well, almost the way fat wrestling figs legs usually go. Im not big on the paint choices. I think ill wait for repaints, hopefully a black n white penta, or maybe with some blue. Im so tired of so much red and black.

The figures look amazing!!!
But just a little pricey for me, so I'll have to pass. But still amazing looking figures, Great Job!

Anyone from the UK preordered? Was chatting with the guys about UK distribution and they’re still looking in to it, in fact Euro distribution as a whole. Some uk retailers do stock other Boss Fight figures, so it’s not totally out of the question, but yeah, I’ll be ordering a couple of sets in the next week. Also, bear in mind, there will be a cheaper basics style version coming out too (still incredibly detailed and look amazing) if this is just outside of people’s budget. Be great to see them out in the near future. |

Where can I preorder? I’m not seeing them anywhere.
Edit: Nevermind! Found them!
I’m optimistic but I can’t tell by the pics if their joints will be flexible or if they’ll be very playable.

Preordered whole set through big bad. Would have just gone through BossFight, but Big Bad doesn't charge until they ship, which is a lot easier for me this month with the NJPW pre-orders coming too!

i ordered from boss fight shop and spams. f it. i'm all in and am relieved mattel's tyrannical strangle hold on wrestling figures is over
these look awesome and superior to MDT, i mean of course they are because theyre like 30% more money and also because mattel is still using 10 year old parts.
