More Ultimate Edition talk, who do YOU want to see in the line?

I have just taken delivery of the new Kane Ultimate Edition figure that came with the RAW ring available from Mattel Creations. Next up we have Razor Ramon (with Chase) and AJ Styles in the regular UE line and we should be also getting, in the summer the Mattel Creations exclusive UE Cody Rhodes and next year the MC exclusive Logan Paul. A follower of mine on twitter, told me the next UE releases after Ramon/Styles are Andre The Giant/Seth Rollins.


Now, we always do our wish lists of figures we want to see and a lot of the time, there are no deals done to make this possible, the wrestling personalites have to a deal with the WWE, not with Mattel. I am not one really for re releasing of figures but there are some figures that have been released in the past that could possibly be tweaked and then released as an Ultimate Edition but, although, we were lucky enough to get some great figures in the past of particular wrestlers but for various reasons, a lot due to lawsuits over concussions.


I don't know how to find a list of who is currently under a Legends deal, I have tried a search engine but had no luck, because, tbh, I would like all UE's and any released by Mattel really to be those of stars of yesteryear but I know, this could never be the case.

If all settled, lawsuits etc. what previously released figures would you like to see come down the pipe as UE's and secondly, who, would you like to see get a debut figure in the Mattel line as a UE figure, anyone that has wrestled for the WWF/E or been inducted into the Hall of Fame?


Can't wait until we finally get the Steiners, we know they are coming, not sure in what form first but I guess we will get Elites and Ultimate Editions at some point, I think we will first see the actual figures around Wrestle Mania time, sooner would be great of course.

OK guys, thats it, just a quick little blog, please give me your choices of who YOU want to see as an Ultimate Edition figure from Mattel.

The March 6th RSC Reveals

Image
So, we were given the heads up there was going to be an announcement from Ringside Collectibles on 6/3, rumours/guesses were being thrown around on social media, we knew RSC were getting an Outsiders Ultimate Edition pack exclusive to them so initially I thought it had to be full images and pre order info for them. After talking to others, it was mentioned maybe it could be the next set of Defining Moments figures, either way, I thought it was one of these two sets. Come time for the reveal and, well, I was a bit letdown. What we got was a reveal of  more re-releases, yes, they may have updated articulation, pinless arms etc and some updated face scan technology but in essence, they are the same figures we have had before. Below are images of the 8 that are being re-released and exclusive to RSC I have all of the original releases of these figures, so I thought, after I got over the let down, I’d not be buying any of these, then I thought, damn, they are RSC exclusives, I have all ...

International collectors to lose out?

Image
There is still time, it may change but very shortly the Mattel Creations 'Coliseum Collections' Hart Foundation is due to go up for sale on the MC website, however, anyone outside the US, definitely here in the UK anyway, will not be able to order it. We haven't had an issue in the past but this was spotted by someone a few weeks ago and as of typing this, the statement which you can see below is still on their website. We all like to moan but I think international customers do get the short end of the stick. There's plenty of store exclusives that are stores that are only in the US so, if we want them have to pay over the odds to independent sellers as they have to get them imported in.  People buy from the likes of Ringside Collectibles directly and pay a premium on the shipping charges to do so when Mattel creations brought out their exclusives it was great that we could order direct from them for a shipping cost that was quite reasonable but now, well, we, as it sta...

Target (Argos in the UK) NXT Exclusives

Image
Welcome all, I hope you're all well. The grind continues, today I’ll be taking a look at the NXT series of figures that were exclusive to Target in the US but in the UK surprisngly they were available in Argos, it's a shame they didn't do that with other US exclusives because if they had of, we'd have saved a pretty penny over the years. So, the first series consisted of 4 figures, I own 2 of the 4, still want No Way Jose, passed on him so many times but wish I hadn't. The other one I don't have is Bayley and I guess, unless this is the first time you have read one of my blogs, you'll know I don't collect female figures (money and space to display them is the reason).  Now onto the ones I do have, first there was a Seth Rollins (Left) as a big fan of the indies I was a fan of Rollins under his former guise of Tyler Black but never really saw him in NXT, yes, I don't watch the WWE product, haven't since 2002 really, caught the odd bit here and the...
