Why are we so goddamn obsessed with knowing every single thing before it's announced? Just  ing let it be. Mattel will share new sets when they are ready to be shared and that's it. Why do people have to be OMG FIRST!!!!! all the ing time. its such childish nonsense Calm down, Bill. |

Had they given the new one the same boots as the other figures, it probably wouldn't have been as bad. Good eye! |

I’m guessing you probably could add some height to Khali by giving him stone cold boots

Btw I know it’s water under the bridge but the posted lineups from unknown source is completely false
No main event lines have 4 figs not to mention series 155 already confirmed via German leaks as different
Also 116 elite line up lists Lexis and Axiom as both in the set. There is one NXT star per wave so this is also false

My very good friend worked with Gillberg in Baltimore. This is all hilarious. He’s told me some wild stories of him.

On one hand, that Khali figure's scaling issues are egregious
On the other hand, this means he'll fit on my shelf without tripping the thing in my brain that hates pattern breakers.
I think I will happily take my Not-So-Great Khali. He'll look better than a "real" one.

Feels like they are using the port strike as an excuse they had ready to go the moment it happened lol I don't know -- they could have known it was already delayed at the port, and that if it did shut down, they'd be stopped completely. So easy to anticipate |

No idea whether these are accurate or not; I do think that if Gillberg is the BAF, they are leaning a little too deep into "Wrestlecrap" with the likes of Hak, Golga, Gillberg, Fake Diesel, Vincent.... is there a fine line between "deep cuts" and too much "Wrestlecrap?" I would even question how important Jim Duggan was to the epic "Monday Night Wars" other than contributing..... more Wrestlecrap. I just feel the line is leaning too heavy into the silliness while there were some really cool names & moments they could be capturing here. Like Madusa. Eric Bischoff. Degeneration X. Mick Foley (any of his personas). Then of course the un-signed ones that are missing (Sting, Flair, Macho Man). But we'll be getting Gillberg. Yippee. To me? "Deep Cuts" would be the likes of Alex Wright, Juventud Guerrera (really any of the luchas), Disco Inferno, Fit Finlay, Glacier/Mortis, etc. And another Rock? How many names are they going to repeat in this line? I guess I am relieved that if this lineup is accurate, I won't need to hunt for them. SIDE NOTE: If Duggan is signed - and you really wanna give us Duggan - - - forget Monday Night Wars - give me a Hacksaw Jim Duggan Superstars figure, and a Target Legends King Duggan Elite! I agree -- I always think "why another Rock." But Steve swears figures like that are needed for the line to sell... |

Never going to see a Bayley Ultimate, huh? She just had her big push this last Rumble/Mania season. Fingers crossed we get something around Mania next year. I really want an elite with the La Parka gear too.  |

Remember that we have two sources about the Target WM Set and one seems pretty detailed. 😉 It's actually the only product that I would be interested in from this apparent leak. Although WM4 Hogan without ring gear seems like an odd choice for a set celebrating 40 years of WrestleMania. |

SO glad that MNW lineup is fake. The series has huge potential and I'm really hoping as it becomes more established, Mattel can push WWE to approach/sign more "first time" and "deep dive" WCW names for the line, e.g. Mortis/Kanyon, Norman Smiley, Ernest Miller, Buff Bagwell, Alex Wright, Konnan, Disco Inferno, Perry Saturn, Steve McMichael, Billy Kidman, Kronik, etc... and so many more. |

Unless it’s just a way for Mattel to slot that particular look in somewhere without offering it as a standalone figure in a future wave. |

I hope if there is some truth about this set the WM4 Hogan will have his gear from match with Andre and not from the end of the show. It just doesn't feel right to have this kind of set without Hogan's legendary WM look. |

So easy to anticipate Well yeah, these were due in "Late-August" so had they been on-time, they would have completely avoided the Port Strike; Another way they would have avoided the Port Strike? If they had been air-shipped, which is what I THOUGHT Ringside normally did, at least for the initial early orders. Guess that's a thing of the past. Again, we wait. |

When is the next known official reveal event? Mattel reveals at NYTF this month? When's Ringsidefest? In fact, what are the major ones and when Are they? I'm going to add them to the annual calendar 📅
-
- Mania - April
-
- SDCC - August

I'm going to add them to the annual calendar 📅 - - Mania - April - - SDCC - August - You can count on some sort of Ringside Fest. I don’t think there’s ever not been one even if it’s just a digital event ever since the pandemic. They’re typically end of Oct or sometime in November. Looks like 2022 was in December. So basically RSF - Q4 |
