Not sure why he felt the need to rush with a sales date of June 20th if he didn't have all of series 3 in-stock yet; I mean the announcement date and surrounding hype is all up to him. Unless he really needed to generate quick funds to pay off freight charges or something, I don't see why he couldn't hold off a week or two to get P&G in. The advertising and quiet back tracking looks so amateurish. He has used the one off figures for this in the past imho. |

Hes freakin out because he knows momentum is everything and he has less than powertown. Thats how he came to step on himself. Hopefully these figs improve and sept isnt just a preorder for something we get for Christmas 2026. Im not even kidding because that very well could be what it is. Still silence on the cardona gage pack haha. Someone tell me how long ago that match was I doubt that. He has other figures that are done. That hakushi he showed was the finished, from the mold, production figure. And he hasn’t even announced the series that’s in. Same with candido. I suspect the series 4 figs are done too. |

Everyone has different takes and tastes, but the only figure that I'm a bit 50/50 on at this stage with the ZST line moving forward is the Francine figure, that may or may not come with Shane Douglas as a two piece (?). To me, Sabu from Series 1 was the standout figure. Jeff Jarrett orange card and entire Series 2 were fantastic in my opinion. Just ordered One man Gang and the Power & Glory tag team duo from Series 3, and the entire Series 4 run seems like a smash hit to me! Very keen to see what other Flair and Savage's will come down the line, Road Warriors and Public Enemy on the horizon - Masato Tanaka!! Take my money!

Tajiri drawing was shared today: http://instagram.com/p/C8mkiayuzsF Couple of notes: -I don’t see anything about an interchangeable head like one person in this thread mentioned which leads me to my next point… -The drawing appears quite different than the figure we were shown. Perhaps ZST is reusing a torso so to achieve the “leaning forward” look, maybe they have him a bent neck? The facial expression on the figure appears happy whereas the drawing looks more sadistic. The drawing has his entire upper torso slightly leaning which doesn’t come across in the little bit we see from the ad. What is pretty clear though is that the arms are different. In the drawing his hands would be visible in almost any position…so maybe Josh changed it for some yet to be known reason or perhaps it wasn’t finished in time for the ad so he covered it with other figures? Take another look: http://instagram.com/p/C8dcf5LsKYr |

Hopefully the Power and Glory actually do ship soon.. my wife ordered Tunney, Power and Glory for me for my birthday (July 9th) and I think she'll be more disappointed they aren't in hand for my birthday than I will be. I'm used to Zombies shit, she's not

Have any of the Rudat or Rudat-like drawings been accurate to how the figures has ended up?

-I don’t see anything about an interchangeable head like one person in this thread mentioning which leads me to my next point… Was just speculating because Tajiri’s neck gap looked way more prominent that the other necks in the promo shot, almost like it could pop off or something |

Why is nobody mentioning "Series 4 are completed at the factory" ... is it because none of us believe him?

plus, if he had them shipped now, they may arrive at his garage by Christmas (tho you'll note, I didn't set a year  ) |

I know people get on the Majors for being too kind to Zombie but I think they were pretty fair in criticism of him on their Pod that will be out Friday. They called out the Power and Glory bait and switch stuff and were critical of the poses of the guy in Series 4. I will say for me that Series 3 just doesn't have me all that excited and I see the point on Series 4.

Good. Because it's undeniable how sideways him and his stuff have gotten. I bet theyll all still 3 individually unbox and put them over again. Although considering people already have tunney, omg and a version of slick than perhaps not. Wouldn't surprise me tho.

He said series 3 was all “in stock” and then a few days before the sale he said Roma and Herc wouldn’t be in hand for a few weeks |

The wheels are coming off the line it seems -- maybe Punk can reinvigorate things. I hope the guy doesn't lose any money on the venture, but otherwise, I don't wish him well, given his atrocious attitude.

The Punk that was vaulted forever! only to reappear “due to popular demand” wrestlemania weekend? I’ll listen to the Pod on Friday and give full context to their comments here. |

We know for a fact that there are other figures not even announced for a series yet that are done. Hakushi and Candido being two. So it’s not hard to believe those are done too. |

Do we KNOW Hakushi and Candido are done or have we only seen the painted samples at Wrestlecon? |
