Does anyone know where the thread is for BILL’S Q&A? Will there be A Q&A this year or will it just be the panel with interviews with Ricochet, Candice & Gargano?

He might not be doing a Q&A like usual this year since RSC won't be going to SDCC because SDCC kind of isn't actually happening like usual.

Don’t matter anyway, he’ll give us the same vague answers.

I hope it’s just the panel ... Bill answers the same exact way each and every time.
Not that I’m saying he doesn’t randomly give us a little bit of info here and there, but he’ll never answer any concerning/legit question straight forward.
It’s always : “It’s possible, I mean ...l”
“I can’t speak on that right now, we’ll just have to wait and see”
“Right now, uhmm there’s no plans for that. Maybe somewhere down the line we can try and find a spot for it, but as of now I don’t see that happening”
“Toys R Us killed our shelf space”
“Deco hits”
“I can’t give you any details on any new signing just yet, but it’s gonna be great ! I’m sure most of you will be very pleased”
Again, not knocking Bill at all, because he does a great job by getting a good mix of legends and current guys made ... but I really don’t get why everyone looks forward to his Q&A so much 🤷🏻♂️
I mean, we all pretty much know what answers he’s going to give based on what questions are asked.

With the ongoing AFA thread I don’t see much need.
But hey, I still hope he does one

I'm grateful that Bill answers the questions, but most people ask the same kind of questions every year.

Yep and as the AFA Q&A thread shows, people will continue asking questions that they already know the response to despite being told what the response is going to be several times previously in the thread.

A lot of the design related questions are basically "you'd have to ask Bill." But not sure if Bill would bring more clarity to the situation. I think some questions are almost impossible to answer without throwing his bosses or WWE under the bus.

I'm forgiving when it's someone who is relatively new here. It's the members who have been here for years, and insist on asking "when are we getting a Liv Morgan Ultimate Edition figure!?!?!" over and over again that leave me baffled. Even when Steve is nice enough to respond to their question that he can't give out info, they come back a month later with the same question.

A shortened q&a where the Qs are submitted beforehand and vetted so they could reel them off

The best way to sum that thread up really is: "Guys I'm not going to reveal figures in this thread" *200 posts asking Steve to reveal new figures* and it's usually the same few people too.

Dear RSC, can you cancel your Q&A will Bill and do it with Steve instead? I’m being serious and not trying to throw shade at Bill, but AFA would be much more preferred.

Maybe. Possibly. He may or may not. We'll see.

What could we ask Bill that hasn't been asked to AFA already?

I mean what’s the point of a QnA anyway? They can’t/won’t give any info on who’s signed, who’s not anyway. And we all know if you’re on tv, you will get a figure at some point. So there’s really nothing we as a fan base can ask that will be answered. Bill always seemed to get aggravated with the same questions every year, but it’s because they’re never answered. I mean, I honestly don’t see why it’s such a secret to just say “yeah, we have 4 macho man figures lined up for this year instead of “I can’t answer, you’ll just have to wait and see.” And something else I’ve never understood, but I’ve seen 100s of times of people asking for Skinner, Jeff Jarret,Zeus, Dink, Barbarian, etc and they’ve always say “ he’s not signed to a deal.” But if you ask for a list of guys who isn’t signed to a deal it’s “we can’t do that, we can’t discuss who’s signed and who’s not.” Which i understand if you can’t list guys who’s signed and who’s not, but don’t see the difference in a list of names or individually names being answered. And we know names come and go daily or weekly, but it would likely knock down a bunch of “is such and such signed to a figure deal.?” But anyway, on a bright side of things, if mattel can’t do it because of wwe’s suck a$$ contract rules, maybe AEW can. One more thing, I ask afa one day if SDCC would be moved up or down or stay the same since the show got cancelled, the response was “stay tuned.” Like I mean really? You honestly just couldn’t say “it’s gonna be 22-26th lol

God I hope so. I don't want to miss gems like:
Time will tell. Its a possibility down the line. Not likely, but you never know. 10-15 more softball questions we already know the answer to. More <insert belt> are coming. Its just a matter of figuring which wrestler it should be included with. Puzzled look on his face - I didn't know there was demand for <insert wrestler people are begging for> ... No plans as of now. Its something we'd like to do if we had the chance. Things could change. We need to see if we can fit <insert wrestler people are begging for> into a line up. Can I have Dino Bravo now? Yes, more AJ Styles figures are planned. This is one of my favorite figures I've been working on- shows a diva that later rots on shelves.

No need. Asking AFA is much better.

There’s not much that we need to hear from Bill since Steve has been very interactive and answers everything he possibly can and the design specific questions that only Bill can answer rarely get asked at these things anyway. That being said, I like Bill and since he’s pretty much never interacts with the fig community anymore (and rightfully so) it’s nice to hear his responses the 2-3 times a year at these events. Even if they are mostly generic answers to dumb questions.
