Wait, how is it going to take another 8-9 months for that Mattel Creations CM Punk to be ready? when it was put into production months ago already

How come I see the far-right head sculpt as Muta munching on a giant piece of broccoli? ![](https://i.imgur.com/HCEmIJZ.jpeg)

Great post. I wholeheartedly agree with you regarding Ultimate Hulk Still Rules. They should include TWO shirts. One intact, one Velcro tearaway. I hope the …IS STILL RUNNING WILD is on the Vs k of the shirt. Also, I wish they would throw in sunglasses. Also, it should get released this year, for the 40th Anniversary. Thanks Stormbreaker. I always enjoy reading your posts. Thanks brother! Right back at you. ![:)](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/smiley.gif) I edited one awful typo I missed earlier. “I hope the …IS STILL RUNNING WILD is on the back of the shirt.”

this is mostly a musing meant in a joking kinda way...but with having to get rights(/not being able to get rights) to certain tshirts, designs, etc etc ...i wonder if they had to hunt down the person that made that hulkamania banner to be able to produce it.
i'm sure there's some kinda loophole they were able to go through, but yea

I do wish there were more current guys updated that were shown
I'd like to have see new Elites of
Drew Ciampa/Gargano Miz Sheamus Tozawa Angel/Humberto Street Profits Corbin Andrade Good Brothers Ivar
Still need a new BAF Michael Cole....would like other non-wrestler BAFs.
Even just renders. It's like they really don't want to push any of the new people or fill out people's collections with new characters/significant upgrades A lot of active superstars haven't had a new Elite in YEARS...and a lot of guys who have BEEN there for years don't even have an Elite.
I understand its Legends Legends Legends. But man, I'm just one of those people that likes the current product and likes having even more variety in his collection

That said, I believe it would be covered by the type of writing that’s been on the back of tickets for decades.

I noticed Jade's jacket is on display next to one of Usos but I've not seen any pictures of her figure on display. Is it just her jacket? That's odd. Maybe that's a hint that she'll be added this weekend? Not sure what page it was posted, but Jade was definitely shown if you scroll back. I saw the render but never a physical prototype. Was one shown?

My two main takeaways from this year’s SDCC. One: Late Stage Capitalism is hitting Mattel and WWE because there were significantly fewer ideas for new products this year than other SDCCs
Two: Vince’s refusal to meaningfully protect his mid card talent and outright pushing back against making more new stars in the last 20 years is impacting the talent pool of people that will sell figures. I understand that a lot of people who might sell figures aren’t available, but a ton of said names were from other generations and this the problem is directly exacerbated by the lack of new stars from the last 20 years. Yes, they made some, but not as many as the 90s and 80s.

Does the Vault Hollywood Hogan have a new head? Definitely a different one. The original release had the smiling one. I think the Vault is a nice upgrade. It looks like the same scan used for Hollywood ultimate, fan takeover, and Wolfpac RSC.

Yes, they made some, but not as many as the 90s and 80s. 100% Agree. Upper Mid-Card Guys like Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake, Jake "The Snake" Roberts, "Million Dollar Man" Ted Dibiase, and Big Boss Man never held any meaningful titles in WWF. But people remember them 30-40 years later. They resonate. They were memorable.

am I crazy or did they not show as much as usual I feel like they showed more this year than last year. Overall, I’m very happy with what we got. A couple complaints but the good outweighs the bad by far.

Lita in Monday Night War doesn't make much sense. The figure looks good but the war was pretty much over by the time she came around.
