The New Gen era ring/stage wasn't as popular as this era though. This Monday Nitro ring is the "Monday Night Wars" version, the sister piece to the Raw Is War stage they've already shown. Arguably the most popular wrestling era.

I won't be backing it either. I tapped out (no pun intended) when my son moved on from wrestling to Marvel Legends - leaving me with bins upon bins of Elites in the garage. But it will definitely fund. The Ultimate figures alone make up almost half the price tag, so if they meet all their goals, the value is there.

Knowing Mattel, they'll likely re-release the WCW Spring Ring with something like a Lex Luger or the NWO Rick Rude BaF. Though if it starts to struggle, I can see Mattel tossing in ropes, buckles and a skirt to put on the Ultimate ring.

Articulated Ninja is a fool. He’s always calling people shills or Hasbro apologists for not hating the toys they buy. He doesn’t seem to fathom reasonable people can simply pass on the figures they don’t see value in. It’s amusing watching him get all upset, because some Youtubers don’t cover the Action Force line. Hold up…wait I mean he’s got to be using the term shill ironically right. On the 3poa podcast Articulated Ninja ask the other Youtubers what scale Super 7 is. If that isn’t a perfect example why every YouTuber need not cover every single toy line, even the ones that they might not be into, then I don’t know what is.

So, here's what I think that idiot is on about. He sees that we are more dismissive of McFarlane around here and we pay more attention to Hasbro. But that doesn't make us Hasbro fanboys or "just as bad" as the Vala propaganda ministry.
Has anyone here ever said something like, "[GI Joe Classified] is like when Steve Jobs introduced the iPhone." (Tony)? Has anyone here ever said, "No other company but [Hasbro]... blah blah blah." (AN)? What about, "Only [Hasbro] is trying to improve." (Michael)? I could go on and on. There is no equivalence. [Just to clarify, obviously, they didn't say that stuff about Hasbro, they said it about Valaverse. The way I wrote it was confusing.] Normally, I'm pretty accommodating to people who come in here for some spirited debate. I don't just reflexively run them off. But what do you do when someone's opening premise is so patently false and he chooses to double down on it? Can't work with that. For the record, I could name dozens of toy companies I prefer over Hasbro. The only stuff Hasbro makes that I even consider are their HasLab projects. Nothing else they do is really on my radar. Just because McFarlane is even further removed from my radar screen doesn't mean anything. I pay more attention to Vala than McFarlane.... oh shit! I'm a Vala fanboy! I have to go.... get my affairs in order. This is like getting a terminal cancer diagnosis. Last edited by SmokePants; 03-28-2023 at 11:04 AM.. |

Most of them have fled Twitter for Mastodon. ;)

They would probably ignore you, call for the next question, and have security escort you out to the hotel lobby where you'd be blindsided by Tony's bitch-thrown flip flop.
