Well, I did pre order them. It seems like he has listened to feedback, and the figures look great so why not. I can't wait to see who else comes gets released down the road.

Ah damm. I thought 7 days left was ending on the 18th. Apparently it was just hours ago. Hopefully they have extras...
I need to retire so i have more time to check these boards

#1 I am glad he has changed the skin color #2 Does anyone find it bothersome that the pre order is only a few days or less from closing and people are just now figuring out the skin color? The figures look great now, but that is less than great communication and timing. Yeah this was part of the reason i was holding off. I thought they were way too light in color and had too much of a comic book look. The new tanned figures look great.ah well. If anyone gets an extra set id be down to buy them |

Not sure if it's been mentioned elsewhere, but I noticed Mat Maniacs did a video on IG hyping the Hardy Boyz in their Team Xtreme get up! The Matt Hardy in purple stands out in particular! Anyone else excited for these, Powers of Pain and Demolition coming soon?

The “soon” remains to be seen. I want to enjoy this form factor but I’m not sure if I will. If they do end up getting someone that I’m interested in, I’m sure I’ll give it a try.
Now that I think about it, I muted them a little while back because they went back to posting their “fantasy figures” AKA 3D sculpts of guys they don’t have signed. Running a business and posting that art lands in a gray area. Not to say they are deliberately misleading people but this thread is proof concerning how confusing it can be. It’s also using names/likenesses they don’t own to kind of further push their product.
Again, it hasn’t crossed into the territory of deliberately misleading but it’s in a gray area. If another figure company started posting artwork in their product’s style using guys they don’t have signed, it would be a bad look. With The Golden Era of Wrestling, it’s a bit different as they started posting the art ages before they started selling the figures. Kind of wish they were two different accounts but also wouldn’t want them to lose any of the history and fan reach with their current account.

Totally agree, I don't understand why they don't just open a separate account for posting their own projects, because it is just confusing to see them put up pictures of figures they're not going to be able to actually produce. |

alas I have to draw the line. I've got LOD/Steiners on order but I don't think I'd be getting anything else. Besides other retro companies, BRGs (that dropped so many good exclusives recently), GI Joe Classifieds, Yolopark TFs, Mythic Legions...something has to give lol
And I'd only want his extensive WCW/JCP collection he shows off, so the Hardys and Demo aren't really for me.
