How can you possibly have a MOTU and wrestling crossover line and not have La Parka as Skeletor? Unforgivable.  |

Do you think there is a chance to have a build a figure/build a set line? Meaning ... something like Gordon Solie and or Tony Schiavone comes with a Word Championship Wrestling background set and WCW wrestlers from that era that make the line? So hypothetically assuming you had these people under a deal ... it could be a surfer Sting, Ronnie Garvin, Kevin Sullivan, Ric Flair, Michael PS Hayes and parts from Solie and or Schaivone and set pieces? Even if it spanned with two lines that came out together? 2nd line ... Abdullah the Butcher, Bruiser Brody, Stan Hansen, Harley Race and Dory Funk for the 2nd line. You would have to buy both lines of WCW to get the set and both Build a figures??
Or a Pipers Pit?

If Walmart ordered King Harley Race for a line does that mean they have to have all Harley Races? Or can you release Harley Race through other means if you want to? Can you eventually do another King Harley Race through let's say Ringside or someone else with different packaging? Thank you for the education and hope of getting him through other means other than me selling off one of my kids.  As long as Harley is under a deal, we can do another version at a different retailer. |

Steve, thanks again for answering. I know your team's goal is to sell. Love it. Is it out of line to inform a buyer like Walmart how much more they could sell if they had these exclusives available to collectors on-line? Just curious. Again THANK YOU

I know it's moot but I'm curious, was there ever going to be a WCW version of Jericho? If he would have stuck around that would have been inevitable. |

Any thoughts of revisiting the original Entrance Greats concept minus the music box and have basic figures with soft goods entrance attire? Highly unlikely this will happen. |

I know you have said you won’t answer questions about if this guy or that guy is under a deal but I feel this is a little different. Are there any gimmicks you can or can’t make due to a wrestler either not wanting it or wwe rejecting it. For years we have heard Kane didn’t like the Issac yankem gimmick but you were able to do that. Also are there any gimmicks you guys can do without having to sign someone. Like Doink’s gimmick is owned by Wwe so you didn’t have to have a talent signed or maybe you did? Is that the reason we haven’t gotten a Dink? Because only one persons has portrayed him? There’s no banned gimmick list. If we want to do a version of a character we discuss things and see what happens. Currently, we need the performer of the gimmick to be under a deal. I know it hasn’t always been that way in the past but that’s what we’re currently working with. |

So if Jarrett is ever under a merch deal you could technically make a Blue Blazer since he wore the costume but would you be willing to and/or would WWE allow it? |

Really? Does this mean you could make a Blue Blazer figure if you wanted to?! I would think Blue Blazer would be off limits, out of respect for Owen Hart?!

Could use a funeral parlor set as well. |

Its a masked character and WWE owns the rights to the gimmick .
What about Doink, was Matt Borne's estate under a deal or did they make figures of that character because WWE owns the rights to it?!

Having the wrestler under contract that played the masked character is a new requirement. They were able to get away with it before but not anymore. |
