I know that Super7 has the license for Andre the Giant and was thinking what if they started making 3 inch wrestling figures of guys from today and the past. Would anyone buy them if they weren’t so expensive and more around $15 each. I personally would love some smaller scale figures like this to go with Andre. What’s everyone else’s opinion!

I'd be game for 3.75" figures G.I. Joe Hasbro style. No interest in S7's stick figure style.

If they were like the miniature Jakks figures from the late 90s then I'd be all over them, as they were ridiculously fun little toys. The Micro Brawlers and stuff like that haven't peaked my interest, though. A line of legends from cross promotions in the miniature Jakks style, though... Yes! |

Micro Aggression might have been a dud, but build n brawl were pretty cool. I think a 3.75" line would be neat and a refresher. |

Not my thing personally - but I could see it doing well with collectors who don't have a lot of space.

The ones where you got things like parts of a ring or cell etc to build? They were great! As space is a consideration for me I’d deffo say yes to a smaller line - especially if legends based |

Just like everything else I would probably buy the guys that I'm a big fan of but I can't see getting to involved in a line like that.

I’d love it. Build n Brawl was what got me back into wrestling figures in 2008. I’d be all over Mattel doing something similar.
I’d love a Micro Aggression type line as well.

Smaller figures done right are great, but they need to be figures and not more mini statues
The aforementioned build and brawl were legit mini figures
The slam city were figures with gimmicks like being stretched etc
Rumblers however we’re more mini statues than ‘action figures’ so they need to make sure they have that playability as well as collectibility

I had a WrestleMania set with HBK, Bret, Owen, Sid, Vader and Taker, and a Raw set with Ahmed, Farooq, Austin, Goldust and two others who have totally slipped my mind. They did a King of the Ring set as well, and another that I can't recall. They were great. E.T.A. The other two were Mankind and HHH. |

Boss fight / masked republic have shown off a really cool line of smaller scale figures

If they were in the style of highly articulated GI Joes/Marvel Universe 3.75", then yes. If not, I'd accept miniaturized Hasbro style even sans action features but they would have to have high playability poses. Examples would be Hasbro wave 1 Ted Dibiase or wave 1 Macho Man Randy Savage. Or Bret Hart and Mountie. No fused legs a la jumper types like Jimmy Snuka or Koko B. Ware. Properly scaled ring for wave 1 is a must and for me, a good selection of retro wrestlers from the early Attitude Era and earlier.

I think people have different ideas on this. Smaller scale figures such as GI Joes and mini figures which I would classify like micro aggression or the old AWA mini mashers. I would be more interested in the mini figures. Micro was probably
My second favorite line ever behind hasbro. jazwares recently put out about a 2.5-3 inch Fortnite line which would be amazing for AEW. About the same size as Beast mode figures which I am also a huge fan of

I would buy smaller as long as they are not too small and are not too cartoon like the brawlers
