They showed computer renders 3 months ago, they’re supposed to ship from Ringside in a couple weeks. They’re now showing completeD figures that aren’t supposed to come out for another month at least. They have to be done. There’s been actual photos of the rest of the set since then and no updates for those 2. So I don’t want to see them again, I just want to see the finished product of a figure I preordered that’s due this month. Don’t think that’s crazy unreasonable.... It’s not going to look any different tho just less cartoony. Mattel never change anything after it gets to the color render stage of design It will look like a finished product in packaging and not a render. It’s why we collect figures and not computer images. Wild I know. |

Mattel hasn’t even gotten close to Jakks bad yet. I've got a Bret Hart in salmon colored tights that says you're wrong about that, buddy. |

Can I just see the rest of e80? Don’t care about a Russian jobber character from the 80s or something about purple Undertaker. These have been made. Where’s Bayley and Ricochet? Not quite sure what’s so hard. Have Bayley and Ricochet not been made? Volkoff (or "Russian jobber") was a bigger name in the business than either of those two will ever be. |

Apparently comprehension is a problem here. Why are we seeing finished product of figures that come out after figures we haven’t seen finished products of. Maybe this is more simple. Would it make sense to have finished figures of UE 8 before we’ve seen finished Fiend and Hogan? |

Well apparently you say one thing about Nikolai freakin Volkoff (who doesn’t need more than one figure...) And your point gets lost entirely... |

It won’t warm, it will sell. No big deal. |

The head sculpt looks more like him (though obviously not a great likeness) and the color of his gear is actually pink. |

And your point gets lost entirely... Your point was that you were mad Nikolai Volkoff was shown and not Bayley or Ricochet and you called Volkoff a Russian jobber. Your point wasn't lost, you just got called out and tried to backpedal and failed. Also actually Volkoff kinda does need more than one figure because he had different entrance gear as a babyface but go off buddy. |

Yeah Bret in the wrong shade of pink doesn’t come close to this.  Fact is Jakks didn’t make one proper Undertaker in purple gloves. Not a single one. Mattel has released the same one a couple of times with different head scans. |

Mattel releases hundreds of Wwe figures a year, I’ll never get why people get mad when figures they don’t want get made. Just don’t buy it, no big deal! Especially when it is a figure that some people have requested.

That Henry is awful but there's a difference between cost cutting towards the end of a line leading to stuff like that and  ing up a figure in a $50 two pack aimed at collectors. Both suck and both are the result of different circumstances. I remember all too well that Jakks never made a proper purple glove Taker. It's one of the biggest oofs of their entire run with the CS line. At least we got a decent 1998 Undertaker in the RSC exclusive with Kane. |

And your point gets lost entirely... Who are you to say that someone who spent 4 or 5 decades in the business doesn't need more than a single figure? Your lack of interest in a character doesn't determine whether or not they're worthy of being made. |

I don't own Volkoff yet because I want Million Dollar Corporation era. I don't buy a wrestler unless I feel it's my favorite attire or era. It's why I still don't own a Bret Hart or Chris Jericho or Austin. Well I'm getting Stunning Steve.

With DiBiase in this line, that actually might have been the better choice to release this time. |

I like the new undertaker sculpt, but I hair looks odd. Will it come with a fabric jacket? Also, that bulldog is the perfect base for the elite surfer sting imo.
