Ringside Collectibles Mattel Figure Reveals, December 2022

Image
So, we’ve had some reveals those week eh? Some good stuff to look forward to I must say, a certain series returning, certain figures returning so without a do, let’s get going. I know most of you won’t learn anything new as they’ve been all over social media and the reveals were shown live on YouTube with Ringside Collectibles but what will be available here are my thoughts if any of you care for them. So the first lot of reveals were in conjunction with The Uso’s, there have been plenty of Uso figures in the Mattel line and there are more to come. First off, there will be some more Elites with them split up into different lines, Top Picks and a Summer Slam wave I believe but the big news was that the Uso’s will be getting their first Ultimate Editions, these will be released together either in a two-pack or as two figures in their own packaging but packaged together. I’ll try and pick them up as I want to get all male UE figures but this is going to be come harder with the soon to be

Top 5, 6, Kurt Angle Elite Figures

This was going to be a top 5 as I thought there were just 5 Elite figures from Mattel but it turns out there was 6 so I am just going to do a top 6. As Angle was out of the WWE for a while he didn't have action figures from them/Mattel until relatively late on so this is why there is only 6 Elite style figures of him, he has a bunch of basics too but as you know, I do these lists on Elites and Ultimates. So, there have been some decent Kurt Angle Elite figures and you'll see them list but number 6 in the list, well........... 06 Kurt Angle (Ringside Collectibles Exclusive) I have every RSC exclusive Mattel figure released so far and I think, without a shadow of a doubt, the Kurt Angle one in Shield attire must be the worst, it is horrendous so no so surprising, it's last in this list  05 Kurt Angle (Elite 66) This one as you can see, well to me anyway, seems to have a Captain America inspired outfit. Good figure, may quite possibly be higher up in other people's lists b

Tweeted earlier on in the week that I'd seen videos from Kyle & My Damn Toys giving their choices for the Top 10 Ultimate Editions of 2022 and thought I may as well as do mine for the blog. There have been some very good UE figures this year, trying to work out exactly what was a 2022 release was doing my head in as doing my research I saw that one was actually listed as a 2021 release but I am told it was actually from this year. Looking a the list I have I am surprised just how many were released and I have them hall except one as it was a female figure which I don't collect. There were regular releases, store (Target) exclusives, Amazon exclusives and ones only available through Mattel Creations* *This was the SDCC exclusive which was made available via Mattel Creations, I was, like many, unable to obtain them via MC so had to get them from another retailer that was able to get hold of them. So, on with the list -  10 Diesel (New Generation Entrance/Ring Set) Yes, orig

Top 10 Mattel/WWE Elite King Figures

Welcome back all, well, if it's your first time visiting the blog, thanks for stopping by, I hope you return and please, have a look back through the archives to see my previous pieces. So, as you can see by the title, today I am doing another Top 10 list and I came up with this top 10 after asking on twitter what list I should do and I had a response from @MichaelGrid  and he came up with this choice.  Now, as I only like doing top 10 lists of figures I actually own and try and stick to Mattel Elites/Ultimates, I didn't think I would be able to do a top 10 on this choice but after looking into it, I think I can just about so here we go. Before I start, if you disagree with my list hit me up on twitter (links at the end) with your choices. 10 Jerry 'The King' Lawler (Elite Series 18) So, the scan on this one isn't the greatest but the reason it takes the last spot for me in the list is because my one has terrible staining from the cape onto his chest area, maybe not
