Looking Back At The Legends Series....Yes, AGAIN

Hello again, welcome back, thanks for reading and thanks to those who have shared my blogs on social media, it's really appreciated. Before I get onto this week's topic lets cover some stuff I have been writing about recently. So, many of us backed the Mattel Creations New Generation Ring/Entrance with figures. Again, many of us have received our, rings but I have a follower on twitter who's "got lost" - he should be getting a refund this week but on the plus side, as the Macho Man was being shipped separately he has still took delivery of that (before me too) so as I said, that is a plus. One thing I know is for sure, it has soured him for any future crowdfunding projects from Mattel Creations. He has secured a Diesel but if anyone reading can help a brother out, he is looking for a Doink UE figure, so get in touch with me and I'll let him know. Think you'll back another project with MC or will that depend on what it is? So, this wee

Recently Revealed Wrestle Mania Elites

Hello all, put out some tweets this morning but thought I'd blog about it too. I've seen more images of the WM Elites and boy, they are fire! Of course, this is a BAF set too and a lot of the BAF sets have figures in people don't really want but usually have a BAF they do so people buy a set for the BAF parts and then try and move on the figures themselves and I don't think that goes too well for many.  The current set that is out with a BAF, the Survivor Series ones is a prime example, for me, there's only one figure in that set I want and have wanted for years tbh, and that is the Ultimate Warrior from Survivor Series 1990. I saw some tweets of people saying the attire didn't look the same as it did in the match but they were looking at the attire he wore in the grand match of survival but the figure has the attire of the first match he was involved in that night.  I am going off on a bit of a tangent, again but, I really can't buy into the fact that the A

Mattel/WWE Sets Coming Out

Another Sunday, another blog. After seeing that Mattel were releasing another ring with an exclusive figure, I thought I need to find a way of writing about it because, well, I am not impressed to be honest. The set in question is a Raw is War real scale ring with an exclusive Ultimate Edition Kane figure. I, as a collector of male UE figures obviously want the Kane figure but I just can't justify paying $139 plus shipping plus a customs charge for a ring I can't display just to get the figure. People may say I can maybe pick the figure up on the secondary market but a couple things on that, first, will many of them really become available and secondly, if they do, although they will be cheaper than the entire ring set, it will still be quite expensive, we are seeing the prices for the recently released Doink, Diesel and Macho Man. On that New Gen set, I see ringside Collectibles were selling the figures and maybe even the rings/entrance, I know it hasn't sat well with a lo
