I am curious why soooo many gripe about the rubber singlet top for Hennig. One of his biggest bits as a wrestler was to wear take the top of his singlet down. The rubber singlet top is the best way to go and make it look aesthetically pleasing. A cloth goods top would make this look horrid. Nobody wants a cloth singlet. We want a new thicker wider sculpted singlet torso. But this is one of his trademark things to do with one or both straps...  |

The rubber singlet top is the best way to go and make it look aesthetically pleasing. A cloth goods top would make this look horrid. #1. It looks too bulky, almost like he's wearing a shirt of some sort. A rubber shirt. #2. I have concerns that five years from now, that material is going to tear/dry up/fall apart. Then what do you have? Topless Hennig? Do you really, really need to display your Hennig figure with one of the straps pulled down, like he did a few times during his most intense matches? If we really, really need that..... I'd rather they just sculpt it that way. Personally, I don't need to display a Hennig with one strap pulled down . |

Yeah, the majority of us don’t want that feature to pull down his singlet. It’s a cost cutting measure when people here have been adamant about wanting a new sculpted torso for years. |

Is bossman just a re-release of his previous elite in this attire? No. E47A had black wrist tape and black gloved hands. Also came with sunglasses. Plus this fig has normal upgrades with modern figures like true FX, double joints, etc. Ok thanks for the info! |

Two of my most wanted figures (DDP and RVD from series 3) are figures that I'll never see. So disappointed.

I really hope I can get a DDP at some point. I’ve been wanting that look for ages. It’s such a bummer they couldn’t include the diamond cutter shirt though, that would’ve made it perfect.

Since there are like 7 SDCC threads going and I'm pretty confused.... thought maybe we could do 1 thread for MNW Wave 4 discussion.... Looks like this set won't be sold on Walmart's website, so this one will be "in-store only"..... so if you happen to find it, please share what state you found it in. I'm not expecting to find it, but if I do - - - I'd buy either DDP and Curt Hennig. Boss Man & Austin are passes for me. I'm a little surprised they're repeating Austin on just the 4th Wave already..... How do we think they're packing these? 2 Austins, BETTER BE 2 DDP's per case? 1 Hennig, 1 Boss Man? Watch it be 3 Austins, 1 DDP, 1 Hennig, 1 Boss Man.....  Them going back to Austin at series 4 is odd, but completely understandable as he was the biggest star WWE had at the time. Odder that they're both promo gears unless down the line we get an Ultimate. Boss Man is a get for me. Wish he had gloves, but I understand. I would've given him the Hardcore title instead of most of the same loadout from his last Corporate elite. OR take the chihuahua that came with that Del Rio elite and redeco that. For... reasons.... I just hit Hennig forming the West Texas Rednecks in my watchthrough of the MNW and I love it. This gimmick is so fun and it being a double NWO Hennig is just *chef kiss*. I know I'm in the minority in this but DDP in the jeans, ain't my thing... Will I get it? Definitely! If I got a DDP, I would want the night he almost joined the NWO and hit the cutter on Hall. It's a way bigger moment in my opinion. But I get that it's another tights DDP and people want variety. Commissioner Michaels is awesome as a BAF, just wish he had some five o clock shadow. |

While so much is WM's fault, how is the Warrior p/os selling out their fault? It is a highly sought after figure. It happens on Target with their legends all the time, the most sought-after sells out in minutes. Happens on other lines all the time too, like Pulse with GI Joe drops. I am not WM apologist, but, IMO, a hard reach to call em out on this one. |

It was supposed to go on sale at 10am ET (7AM PT). It's ALREADY SOLD OUT. It's 8:45 ET now. Yes, this is Walmart's fault. I am working and was planning to go on at 10am and buy the figure. Now it's too late. |
