Well guys, the balloons are being taken down and the confeti being swept from the street it's safe to say the Festival is over. What grade do you give and why??? I give it a solid D and this is why.
The Good
Liked some of the Vault figures like RVD, Hall and Nash
Great Muta looks fantastic but I wonder how well he will sell considering The USA isn't Japan
Not a Punk guy but really loved the custom MOC package. Hope it will be something that is done for future people. ( Yes Hogan)
The Bad
I don't understand why the Greatest Hits Line wasn't shown. Seems like it would be a easy thing to do especially with how well WM 3 has done in pre orders. They're due in Jan right???
Are Ringside Ultimate Two Packs a thing of the past??
Bloodline overload
Need legends back in the main line
Where is Big Poppa Pump??

HBK reveals always get an automatic B from me.

I give it a C. Reveals probably A-/B+ but the entire presentation drug on way too long which knocked it down to a C.

I went with A, mainly because they should much more than I was expecting for their third tier reveal event.

I was a bit let down, but I think I'm slightly pickier than the average collector. I'm pretty stoked to get a look at Muta, and the Cactus Jack rerelease is greatly appreciated, but other than that nothing really got me excited. There's nothing nothing beyond those two and Pillman I will absolutely buy, but DM Angle and SummerSlam HBK are maybes

Saw this coming from a mile away.
Shock of shocks, Ringside focused on Ringside-exclusive figures. As usual, the griping commences when there is not some big reveal that the OP has hyped himself into hysterics about.
There are two Ringside Ultimate two packs, the Outsiders which just released, and the Steiner Brothers, who are on the way. Hardly a thing of the past.
As for me, Hall, Nash, and Cactus were nice surprises from the vault, and ONS Heyman will be a must have.

SummerSlam 2002 HBK and WM 40 Night 2 Seth Rollins (although, I would've preferred Rollins WM 40 Night 1, but whatever). I've been waiting for that SummerSlam 2002 HBK since 2002! So pumped to add it to my HBK display.

D. Besides Muta, there was nothing that really excited me or interested me. I’m looking forward to the next Monday Night War lineup.

I don’t think I’ll buy any of it besides Muta but there was good quantity for people I think. I don’t like rereleases however especially old exclusives so I gave a C

The Bad (according to you)
I don't understand why the Greatest Hits Line wasn't shown. Seems like it would be a easy thing to do especially with how well WM 3 has done in pre orders. They're due in Jan right???
- Greatest Hits series 7 went up for preorder like a week or two ago. Be patient. Fromt he Vault series 4 has been up for preorder for what feels like an eternity, and is due to ship in December, and images were shown for the first time today. It should not be a surprise that this relatively new lineup of Greatest Hits wasn't shown yet.
Are Ringside Ultimate Two Packs a thing of the past??
So what if they are? This particular showing gets a bad grade because they might be done with a certain line? No one said it was going to last forever and no one said it is over. Maybe they are saving it for the next showing.
Bloodline overload
- The most over storyline in the company getting figure representation? Shocking! How dare they?!
Need legends back in the main line
- Why? Legends have their own line at Target and are easily accessible. They are also a main focus of these rerelease waves, and get tons of exclusives between RSC, Mattel Creations box sets, MNW line, etc. There has been no shortage of legends, and it almost feels as though there are more legends than current guys. You aren't the only customer out there. Mattel needs to make figures of the current guys too.
Where is Big Poppa Pump??
Holding out for one singular name is ridiculous. You can't be disappointed after every single showing just because ONE person wasn't shown. We have Steiner figures. It's better than nothing.
