I highly doubt it has anything to do with Rick’s incident. I mean they were just featured on last nights WWE treasures where the WWE paid $9000 to get Rick’s head gear, original Letterman’s jacket and Scott’s chain mail head gear. So I doubt the WWE cares. I just think they are waiting for a 2-pack spot which is frustrating seeing how popular of a want they are. Yet they just fast tracked 6 figures of CM Punk who’s had one match and is injured yet again. But if they are tooling new body parts for them I guess it’s worth the wait. Yeah I don't think it's anything to do with that either. |

To be fair, that episode was probably shot a long time ago, possibly even around the time the incident happened. I hope that you're right, that they are waiting for the right time to drop them. Since they didn't sign at the same time, it probably threw off what they were planning originally with Rick. I think that part about Punk is what confuses the collectors most, they've had the Steiner's signed for a while now, and we haven't even seen renders of possible figures, but Punk just came back last fall and we already have renders for new figures and some prototypes. Granted, Punk is a high priority and on the main roster, but you think we would have at least seen renders of the Steiner's if we are already seeing renders of Punk. But, with all that being said, I believe with what Steve and Tom have said is this forum, that the figures are coming. Since Tom is getting in on it, I'm guessing the Steiner's will have a RSC exclusive at some point. |

Is there a chance there’s also been some delay due to Rick’s boots being different sizes? That would mean using different ‘shin’ lengths to balance them out. Just an idea of what might have caused a delay in developing, if there has been a development delay.

They noted on the recent Ringside Q&A that they are still available and they just haven't put them into the line again yet.

If they had a problem with what he did they would have cut or edited that part out of the episode then. But they didn’t so I doubt that’s even a thing to them. |

I really hope the first ones aren’t a Ringside Exclusive. Hopefully, they’re mainline releases. I don’t want to pay for any fancy packaging or exclusive prices. No sir. |

Muta has new tooling as well I believe. Guess muta was easier to do first. But Steiners were signed before muta was. So there's that too. |

I just want to know what new tooling they could give them? They can’t give Scott the arms they did for his single figure because he wasn’t that big back then. Everything else seems available

Everything else seems available New heads. Better singlet torsos. Personally I don’t mind what they gave the first Rick Steiner, but it’s not right for how he looked back in the Steiner Brothers days. They should be thicker and the straps should be cut lower down. |

Muta has new tooling Steiners we’re signed over a year before the headbangers, dudleys, sandman and muta but they’ve all popped up first. |

As long as the steiners get to retail and they are in iconic attires and the part choices are good, then the wait wont matter.
Hopefully mattel makes it worth the wait
