this does look very generic/plain… but let’s be honest, Diana looked very plain and generic at Summerslam too!!

as something that would probably just be displayed on a shelf, those seams wouldn't bother me in the least. even if i were taking them down and looking at them everyday...meh, not an issue. i also haven't bought any of the retro figures, so i'm speaking hypothetically you sir, are a god amongst men. I agree with you 100% oh please, i'm only speaking as someone who grew up in the hasbro/bca days. i think people forget that those figures were far from perfect and are putting these new ones on wayyy too high of a pedestal. granted the prices are higher, but unfortunately they won't be finding these for 3/$10 in a kb toys wire bin

Is this Wendy from Peter Pan? She looks like a great addition to the Kenner line. I don’t see many purchases. If this figure is getting into production it could be very likely the rarest figure of the line due to poor sales.

Just announced that the Diana will be in a 2-pack with the Bulldog. Highly dissapointing, and sounds like another blunder on his part. I've been trying to defend his figures so much, but this is a clear panic move after he figured out that Diana aint selling on it's own. Crap move IMO. And it's going to continue to damage his image.

Making Bulldog more expensive by packaging him with a lesser likeness doesn’t seem like a winning strategy. If anything, I think this will hurt the would-be sales for Bulldog. It’s a good idea in theory, but not if the execution isn’t up to par.

I was trying to get the 1/150 Men on a mission, but geez $300 on Ebay? Like Sam Roberts said in his podcast, "You'll be paying through the nose".

It’s a hard one, bulldog does look very good, Diana does look very bad, will this sale strategy give buyers a bad taste in their mouths - Yes, absolutely, i guess it depends how bad you want that bulldog!

I honestly think the two-pack looks fine and Diana doesn’t seem all that more obscure to me than some of the other choices in a few of the retro lines. But I also don’t collect any of these lines so my opinion probably doesn’t mean much.

That sucks. The Bulldog he recently showed was a good one, the Diana figure not so much. He doesn't put M.O.M. or the Godwinns in a 2-pack, but this one he does, horrible.

Still say he has the best true-to-hasbro retros out there. Say what you will about the Bulldog and Diana pairing, but I’m these figures just fit best into the collection with existing hasbros vs the other companies.

Of course it’s the most true-to-Hasbro line out there, he’s literally 3D printing from Hasbros to make the molds it seems.

Did he use a Yokozuna mold and resculpt it for Mable for example or what is he doing?

However if you look at figures like Carlito or Fabulous Rougeaus it's not just a case of "literally 3D printing from Hasbros to make the molds", there's some 3D-modeling involved as well.

Let's hope some of the Bulldog 2 packs come loose, I was going to buy the Bulldog figure but it's an easy pass now. I'm presuming with these estates of wrestlers getting out there, we should have people like Epic and Zombie releasing Bulldog figures in the near future so I'm just going to wait it out till those come out.
