I am very interested to seeing a Bull Nakano that is in scale with the Mattel figures. Would partnering with a stateside distributor bring the prices down for Americans?

I would buy a Dynamite Kid, but it was $42 for the Hasbro styled one so I can only imagine was a 7” scaled figure would cost shipped to the US. Hahah at least there’s an option for international lol . Oh god. Careful posts are getting locked now because of that topic. |

If it is a Dynamite Kid that matches the Davey Boy Smith we just got from Mattel, I would absolutely buy one. I'm really curious to see who they have coming down the pike in this series. There are tons of wrestlers I would love to get figures of, but man, this hobby is getting expensive. Mattel, Jazwares, Super7 NJPW, BFS Legends of Lucha Libre, and now these figures by Chella. Wow, that's a lot of companies making figures in this scale. It is super exciting to get so many figures and fill so many spots in our rosters though! |

Even if it doesn’t match the Davey Boy as long as the likeness in the face sculpt is there I am buying it. |

Sounds like he's in plain white tights, so probably no design on the back to match Mattel Davey Boy Smith. Close enough for me though. |

I think I came here to say I saw on Instagram it was Dynamite in white and I just spent $52. lol |

If he comes with the vest and cape I may have to order another.

It looks like a custom Mattel figure. The molds are awfully similar. I feel like Chella is walking a fine line if they release this as is.

Nice! But the 10% off code doesn’t work. Are we already past the 24 hour announcement?

Mattels gonna shut this down. All they did was sculpt over the wrists and change the pegs. Cease n desist for sure.

They've tried photoshopping the thigh articulation cuts out. I have doubts on this, as it looks VERY close to an elite with a custom head. I want to give them the benefit of the doubt, but I don't know.

Wow. The figure looks cool, but the head sculpt, not so much. |
