My Bill arrived today. She is tiny. Not much bigger than a rumbler Would you be willing to post some photos?

My Bill arrived today. She is tiny. Not much bigger than a rumbler From the pictures I've seen on Twitter, she does look pretty small. If you get the chance to post comparison pics with another figure, it'd be cool to see the difference.

I just came to post this as well! Oddly enough, I just watched her episode of Dark Side of the Ring. While it looks good…nothing about it looks like a Hasbro/Retro style figure.

I was thinking the same thing. I wonder if they're taking a different approach since she was more of a manager/valet during her time with Bam Bam and HBK (sans the mixed matches with Dink) vs. Bull who was an active wrestler during her New Gen time?

Since Hasbro never made any females (or non-wrestlers at all) I'll allow for some creative liberty here. Happy to get Luna.

I think it's one of those cases where we will need to see a prototype picture to get a better idea of the figures style. If they can keep the detail shown and scale it down to the retro style, then I think it'll be a home run!

Luna might be the first of either of these lines that I go in on. That's a huge get, I'm a huge fan, and I love what Chella has been doing so far.

Luna is without a doubt the biggest missing gap either line has managed to sign. Even more so than JJ. She fits the prime hasbro time period to a T.

In case anyone missed the stickied thread, both versions of Jay White are up on RSC for pre-order.

What are the head sizes on the Chellas and on the Jay White? Are they the same as Mattel Retros? I don't own a Retro, but isn't it pretty much an Elite/Basic head anyway? If so ... could the Jay White head in theory work atop a regular torso?

1. Jay White looks amazing.
2. Is there any word on if they'll be doing a Retro Luna also?
Again -- WWE has dropped the ball so hard. A Luna figure would be such a home run

2. huh?? yeah, they've announced they're doing Luna, it's a 4" figure so will be smaller than, but in scale with the male figs like Bam Bam

We already know Luna is going to be tiny like Bull was. even though their attempt to justify it held no water, they made clear that the plan moving forward was to have the women be scaled to reflect their actual heights in relation to guys like hogan.

My bad -- from their proto, I thought it was in scale with the Sabu and Davey Boy....
