Comic Con Recap Introduction
00:00:15
Speaker
It's the most wonderful time of the year. It's our official San Diego Comic Con recap. Welcome to the Chickapole Show. I am Phil Gentile, the hot take kid here in the Jimmy's Famous Seafood Studios. I have my lovely co-host with me here, Sheena Phelps down in Virginia. What's going on Sheena? Not a whole lot, man. I'm like, there was so many things happening today. Our chat was blowing the hell up with all of these.
00:00:44
Speaker
with all these drops, so I'm super excited to get through and talk about them with you guys. Oh my God, I cannot wait. Marco, how are you? What are you excited for to talk about
Ultimate Warrior Excitement
00:00:52
Speaker
here? What's the one figure, Marco, that made you go, hmm? Of course, the Ultimate Warrior final speech figure that they have coming out there is pretty sweet. That whole set looks pretty promising.
00:01:10
Speaker
We're going to go through every single thing that's been announced over the last couple of days. Today is Thursday when we record, so there are still reveals for Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, I believe. I don't know what the hell they're going to spread out over four days, but if anything big, Monumental comes out, we will do a Patreon-exclusive episode.
00:01:32
Speaker
We might even try to jump on here. If it's me and Marco, or me and Sheena, or Sheena and Marco, or some combination of the three of us, we'll jump on here Sunday or Monday to recap everything before our regular show. But if, you know, worse comes to worse, we'll talk about everything next week on the main show. But right now we're gonna talk about everything that came out over the last
Social Media Recommendations
00:01:51
Speaker
couple of days. I have a couple counts you need to follow. On Instagram, dfreedom30 is the best account to follow. They have a bunch of pictures of everything.
00:02:00
Speaker
on Twitter, our buddy WWE Retro Stars is another great source of all the all the info that has come out over the last couple days. So check them out.
Masters of the Universe Discussion
00:02:10
Speaker
Let's start with the masters of the universe. Wave three is just now hitting stores. We have photos of wave four and wave five. Everyone have these up in front of them so we can discuss. Yes.
00:02:25
Speaker
Okay, so we talked about this on the main podcast. This was a line that I thought was just going to be doomed to failure, you know, be like a Ghostbusters type of thing. But, man, they've come out with some pretty sick figures and they're not disappointing here with series four. This is going to be
00:02:41
Speaker
Seth Rollins, Mr. T, Bray Wyatt the Fiend, and Jake the Snake Roberts. And these are some sick-ass figures, Sheena. Have you bought any of these yet? I mean, I know your kid's a little bit younger than mine. My five-year-old loves these.
00:02:57
Speaker
And yeah, no, we haven't we haven't gotten into the master of the universe game. I mean, I love these figures I think they're super awesome We might pick up the Seth Rollins just for our Seth Rollins collection. Obviously if they ever came out with a Bret Hart We would pick that one up too. But yeah, we haven't opened that that box yet But man, I feel like this is gonna be one like, you know Maybe the heel husband will be like in a in a year or so like oh we should go back and get all those masters of the universe figures
Jake the Snake Figure Details
00:03:20
Speaker
Yeah, triple the price. I walked by these things a million times. But yeah, this this is a six years we got here. The fiend, like you said, I'm like the Jake the snake. I mean, we're getting a Jake the snake elite, which we'll talk about here in a little bit. But I was curious because, you know, Jake, I mean, obviously these Jake's been working for a W for a while now. Right. So, I mean, if they weren't going to release these, they wouldn't be announcing them at Comic Con because I feel like people were like, yeah, good point. Is Jake is Jake going to come out? I'm like, well, I mean, they've had plenty of time to like scrub these
00:03:49
Speaker
images and scrub these photos. So if they weren't going to come out, I feel like they would have already
00:03:54
Speaker
like deleted him from it, right? Yeah, for sure. Yeah. Um, couple quick things. Yeah. The jig, the snake looks awesome. The face comes off of the jig, the snake and the chest plate comes off and reveals like kind of like a snake character or whatever, whatever the he, we don't know. He meant as well as we know wrestlers. So we apologize. Uh, but also if you notice the, the fiend has like a little hook on the top of his hand. So I don't know if the face comes off on that and you can use the head as a kind of like a,
00:04:22
Speaker
Bray Wyatt lantern or something and then he comes with another head. So we're just seeing initial pictures here. Do you see what I'm talking about? Has like a little Christmas like ornament. He's got a loop. Yeah. He's got an ornament loop on the top of his head. Yeah. The Seth Rollins is kind of blah. I mean, they, you know, not much you can do with him, but the Mr. T is cool. Has the cool like big gold.
00:04:45
Speaker
There you go. That's a good way to put it. And then series number five, so I mean this is going pretty, must be selling well because they keep pumping them out. And this is one of the figures you were the most excited about. This is the first female in the series. This is Becky Lynch in series five of the Master of the Universe with like kind of the snake scepter, the shield.
00:05:08
Speaker
Yeah, this is like the first this is like the first iteration This is the first woman iteration. We've gotten in this form. I mean we never got a female retro And so it's really cool to see like a female in this line because I think it's it's super cool And I'm hoping I'm hoping that one of the big announcements for like the future obviously we'll talk about it But I'm gonna go ahead and say now I hope they're gonna say like hey guess what retros are back, but It would be really cool to see some female retros in the future
00:05:37
Speaker
for sure. Yeah. Uh, the rest of the series, that's Becky Lynch, uh, Roddy Piper, Ricky, the dragon steamboat. Well, it's pretty awesome. And then the, uh, kind of like an NWO macho man, which we already have kind of like the old school eighties macho man. So pretty interesting. Uh, you know, they have the ring obviously for presale with the stone cord and the Hulk Hulk Hogan figure ring looks bad ass.
Interchangeable Parts Discussion
00:06:00
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah, for sure. So, I mean, these, these are like the snake heads on the ring posts.
00:06:05
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, this is, these are made for, obviously made for kids. You know, they're, they're fun. I talked about in the main podcast that you can snap the arms, the legs, the head off and switch them all around. And I mean, my son can do that for hours and come up with different characters and stuff, especially if you have, you know, five or six or seven of these things. True, but our kids, I mean, our kids even really knowing what these are, obviously we're not huge masters of the universe fans, but I mean, like, yeah, but I mean, our kids like watching masters of the universe these days, like, is there a new remix or?
00:06:33
Speaker
No, but they're just like just the right amount of cartoony that they are like different than wrestling like my son has like 100 basics and elites loose that he plays with so I mean these are just like you can play with wrestlers but it has almost like kind of like a supernatural like you know you're playing with something a little bit different so that's what I mean as a kid that's what I would think it would be so
00:06:56
Speaker
going down the pike here so elite series 78 has been revealed there's already pre-orders up for that we finally saw photos for all of these and I wasn't too excited about this set Sheena before today but oh my god some of these figures named namely the
00:07:13
Speaker
The the Matt Riddle might be a candidate for for figure of the year totally awesome has the white the white kind of like Bathrobe and the slides. Yeah, pretty pretty badass figure It is a spot-on iteration of Matt Riddle. I'm I'm here for I love it Marco. What's your favorite of this set? Um Can't sleep on Naomi
00:07:38
Speaker
Yeah, but I'm kind of I'm kind of pissed off, though, because we were supposed to get that Naomi like years ago. Yeah. I mean, that's that's the exact same Naomi that was supposed to release at Walgreens like four years ago. Yeah. I mean, it's I mean, it's still I mean, at least it's still awesome. Yes. It's just it's just funny how they're like, look what we have. And I'm like, yeah, we didn't forget about that. Yeah, the global is pretty. Yeah, that is sick.
00:08:05
Speaker
I have, I don't know how many wrestling figures I have in the room that I'm in right now, maybe 300 between my Hasbro's and everything. I don't have a single Randy Orton figure of any of these. How is that even possible? I don't even know. My five-year-old pointed out like, Daddy, I have two Randy Ortons. Do you have any? I was like, no, I don't think I have a Randy Orton. So I'd like to have, my goal is to have like one of everybody, which is still pretty tall task.
00:08:32
Speaker
I don't know if it'll be this one or be the you know, they've come out with so many of them But this is a pretty pretty true to life Randy Orton here I have already pre-ordered the Naomi the riddle the superstar Billy Graham so Obviously ringside you can use our code chick Foley for 10% off there Elite 79 which we hadn't seen any photos of is also off for pre-order on the website and I
Elite Series 78 & 79 Overview
00:09:01
Speaker
The star of this show is Io Shirai. Amazing. Oh, definitely.
00:09:07
Speaker
Has kind of like the the jacket with the the furry like hood on it. Yeah The Elijah Woods is amazing. Yep. Yeah The Stevie Wonder like you wonder hair with the up up down down belt. Yeah Yeah, we were talking about in our chat like like how many people do you think are gonna like snag that figure and steal the belt or like do a belt swap and
00:09:34
Speaker
I don't know about you guys. Before we get any further, the reveals this year for San Diego Comic Con are 10 times better than anything they showed us last year, I feel like. Just, I mean... Yeah, was it a toy fair where they totally dropped the ball? Is that where AEW... Yeah, that was a toy fair. Yeah, that's where AEW... Yeah, we were just like, wait a minute, what is Mattel bringing to the table? But yeah, I feel like they were holding on to everything. They save stuff for the big events, which makes sense. Yeah.
00:09:58
Speaker
Um, there's, there's a Daniel Bryan, there's a Roman Reigns, which both look really good. They're both kind of like, that Daniel Bryan is like nothing though. No, it's, it's, it's basically the, uh, the, uh, planets champion without the belt, right? It has like a shorter hair. It's black trunks and black boots. And like, I mean, I, I could just like
00:10:21
Speaker
That's just like the most basic Daniel Bryan figure I've ever seen in my life. Yeah, it's not going to do well. The Bobby Fish is cool. There's Chase Ferrant of that. The Undertaker, I grabbed a photo of this. The packaging on this Undertaker, I think it's a Walmart exclusive, but those have been available on ringside lately, so you might be able to grab that.
00:10:46
Speaker
It's an awesome package. On the back, it has his symbol with 30 years, and it has a photo of him from his first match to his last match. If you're an Undertaker fan, you have to grab that. We'll see if that's available from ringside. But a pretty great series. We talked about it before we started recording. They split up Kofi in Elite 78, and Woods in Big E, and Elite 79. I'm not sure why they do that. I mean, not a huge deal, but why not do all three of them together, or each one of them separate?
00:11:16
Speaker
But my only complaint about these two series is we don't have any legends, but we have more of that coming, obviously.
Elite Series 80 Preview
00:11:23
Speaker
Let's get into Elite 80. We had a short hare, may I speak to the manager, Bailey. And a ricochet. Karen Bailey. Karen Bailey and a ricochet. Bailey comes with the deflated.
00:11:38
Speaker
the
00:11:59
Speaker
Uh, we'll see if they have some more elite 80 reveals over the next couple of days. Elite 71 is where we have the most names from. We have the, uh, Bianca Belair, Angelo Dawkins, Montes Ford, Sunning Steve Austin, and Mae Young. Oh, it's gonna be so sick. Yes. Sunning Steve looks just incredible. I cannot freaking wait.
00:12:22
Speaker
So awesome. Yeah. I mean, they have, that's one of the few iterations of Steve. They have not done, obviously they did the ring master. They've done a thousand stone colds. Uh, but this, you know, you could pair this, this pairs perfectly with that Brian Pillman. They came out a couple of years ago. Uh, this come with the, what is it? WSW tag team belt. I need to pull, I'm trying to find the picture right now. It looks like the television title. Uh, cause he was a TV champ for awhile.
00:12:50
Speaker
Uh, let me see the, the guys from WWE retro stars had it on their post. There's no, so no, it's a tech. I think it is the WCW tag team title. Cause we're getting a blue universal title, a fiend universal title. Oh yeah, it is. Yeah. It comes with a, um, it's got a vest. He's got his little like, um, directors.
00:13:09
Speaker
clapboard and then a WCW tag team championship. So you gotta buy two of these, right? You have to buy two and get both of those belts and then have him and Flying Brian hold them. Pretty cool figure. I love that. Mae Young is just a classic
00:13:29
Speaker
Yeah, that's super cool. And it comes with the Mayan classic trophy, which is kind of cool. Oh, it doesn't? Nice. Yeah. Love that. Anything else? I mean, obviously, the Bianca Belair is going to be amazing. The basic was amazing enough. I'd love to see what alpha they put on the street profits. But this is their they look like they're red. I mean, from what I saw, they're like red and white. So and then the Bianca matches them. She's got like white with like red kisses and red Bianca's all over her.
00:13:59
Speaker
Um, ring gear. Yeah. That's why I kind of brought up the, uh, the new day thing. Cause all three of them are coming in at once. Yeah. Yeah. And then like new days split up. So.
00:14:12
Speaker
I tried to grab photos of all this stuff, but it was like I mean it was I don't know Did you watch the video the YouTube video when they were when they released all this stuff today? I mean, Sam Roberts was the worst part of this. It was oh You're so mean to Sam. Oh no. He is is he bad? Is he bad? Yeah, okay. Thank you. Hey great. There's something we agree on oh
00:14:31
Speaker
It just like rubs me the wrong way. I don't know it just like doesn't seem like I don't know if he's just putting on like an act or something like Says he collects all the sesame just seems like uh, like he's hired to do this. So His impression no,
Alexa Bliss Figure Announcement
00:14:47
Speaker
I've done no now and all the the major brothers have a good oh
00:14:52
Speaker
Good thing for that. Yeah. So let's move on to elite 82. I don't know. We're getting into like 2021 here probably, but Alexa bliss. And this is the first appearance of the WWE women's tag team belt, which is pretty cool.
00:15:10
Speaker
Oh, cool. Yeah, I didn't even realize that. Yeah, yeah. Awesome. Jerry Lawler, which I have just, as soon as this announcement came up, I sold my Jerry Lawler that I had in my case, which is kind of like the old Memphis, Andy Kaufman. Yeah. Yeah. I sold it, which is an awesome figure. I sold that to Erin in her Facebook group because this is kind of like perfect new generation era that I need. Yeah, it is.
00:15:35
Speaker
So I prepped it for that and then British Bulldog with Matilda. I mean Yeah, he's another figure in one of the I think it might be a legend. Yeah, it's not
00:16:00
Speaker
I remember, yeah, it's not on here. We talked about it not too long ago. Yeah, we talked about it last week, still the week before. No, I think it's there. I mean, it must be this. That was just a preview of stuff that was coming out, but it must be this, right? It was like a newer version of Bulldog, though, wasn't it? Yeah. Oh, really? Yeah.
00:16:18
Speaker
Wait, did we know that, or was this just, oh wow, okay. Yeah, so I mean, he's a Hall of Famer. I mean, Seamus, do you see Seamus at this list at all? No. Seamus is definitely not on this list. Any new Seamus reveals? It is crazy that we haven't got a Seamus figure in it like a long time. He's gonna come with the bar playset in a Jeff Hardy two-pack. Oh, I like that, yeah. Yeah, they're gonna like make cocktails together.
00:16:44
Speaker
Yeah, but we I mean we got to get this figure simply for Matilda I mean come on but I mean the only way I mean obviously I'm gonna we're gonna get this figure and I'm gonna keep Matilda we might
00:16:56
Speaker
sell or give away the bulldog depending if they don't come out with a dynamite kid they have to because you have i mean you you cannot have this figure without a freaking dynamite kid and i know like dynamite kid's kind of a shithead like in real life you know maybe he's departed so rest his soul all right rip yeah dynamite kid but it's but so maybe they won't make a figure of him because of all that but still
00:17:20
Speaker
I mean, this is like perfect tag team outfit,
British Bulldog Figure Hopes
00:17:23
Speaker
right? And that's what they're going for here. So, I mean, you have, you have to. Yeah. Right. I mean, well, this, this, this figure would not be complete without dynamite. Why would they announce? Why would they announce bulldog without the dynamite kid? Like the, oh, I mean, we saw through, we saw some, we saw some days left. Yeah. There you go. Yeah. Stay tuned to all the social media outlets. Yeah. Stay, stay tuned.
00:17:44
Speaker
One of the figures I'm most excited about King Corbin Elite 83 the best heel in the wrestling business right now Finally did this dude, right the tattoos got the bald head, right? Yeah The cape is great Scepter the crown. I mean, yes, I must pick up day one Mattel has taken all my all my paychecks here. So
00:18:07
Speaker
I know somebody in our group posted the it's like me every San Diego comic-con and it was the gift of Michael Scott saying I declare bankruptcy I like that like the Tiger King like I'll never find initially That is one of the best ones
00:18:24
Speaker
Series 84 we had I mean this is probably like 10 years from now Angel Garza Rhea Ripley and Kushida Three strong names here Angel Garza's getting a ton of TV time right now Hopefully they give him like a like a like a pull away like cheesy jumpsuit or something like some of the stuff he wears The fact that he's not coming with a rose is like yeah, you know, he's like a total miss and
00:18:52
Speaker
Uh, the rear Ripley is, is sick. I mean, it's just, just, just a photo right now. It's just a rendering, but, um, has the, uh, the perfect outfit has like the kind of the spiky, spiky vests that she wears. Look back here. Kind of like the shitty smirk. Um, that's a, that's a must pick up. I'm surprised Kishida is getting a, getting a figure. I don't know if he's, I know he's a big name outside of the WWE, but like he hasn't made much of an impact in NXT. So.
00:19:22
Speaker
I mean, it's cool that he's going to figure, but I don't know. Yeah. That's pretty awesome. Elite 87. So we're skipping ahead some series here. I don't know. I don't know how they do this. Like why this figure is not like an 85, the sequential order here, but I'm not going to complain. Maybe because she was on the panel. Candice LeRae and Johnny Gargano were on the panel. They're part of the Elite squad, not to brag.
00:19:47
Speaker
But she's part of Elite 87, so she'll get a figure in the coming years. That's about it for our regular Elite series. We did have a bunch of reveals for WrestleMania elites, so should anyone run these down? Yeah, we had a WrestleMania celebration. It is an Andre the Giant and a Macho Man. I think it's like
00:20:16
Speaker
Um we got we have two macho man's which one is coming in this set. It's not the neon one, right?
00:20:21
Speaker
This is like the Macho Man WrestleMania 3 with the stars, yellow boots, yellow knee pads, pink trunks with stars, and then an Andre the Giant. And then there is an entrance cart, which is super, super cool. That's an accessory. I don't think we've ever had that accessory before. I think this is a brand new accessory, which is super, super cool.
00:20:46
Speaker
that we got with this WrestleMania series. And then a WrestleMania Elite, or sorry, Elite WrestleMania Series 37 collection is China in the purple, which I said that I wanted. So I'm super excited to get that. We got Goldberg Edge with like two head scans. And I was asking him, he has been, I was like, what's this edge head scan? Like what, why does he look like that? And he's like, it's, I think it's like an action head scan, like for the spear or something. Is it from the Mick Foley WrestleMania match?
00:21:17
Speaker
I believe so. Okay. The gear that he's wearing. Yeah. Because last year we got the Rick Foley from that match. So it would make sense. Comes with a baseball bat. Yeah. So that's good. And Sheena, the entrance cart, I don't know how they're going to do this, but it comes with either the Macho Man or the Andre the Giant. So I don't know if they're going to be like a special pack for those two. Interesting.
00:21:40
Speaker
So you said the Goldbergs, the China, the Edge, and Shawn Michaels. I don't remember which WrestleMania this is from. But it's got to be early. Yeah, I was going to say. Yeah, it's WrestleMania 9. It's the Tonka. Yeah. And then it's the Build-A-Figure, Paul Ellering, out of all those things.
00:22:00
Speaker
Yeah, this is like such a strange I do not remember this you don't remember this you know with this fucking puppet Me the article he was like yes you do remember this and I was like I don't think so
00:22:16
Speaker
Yeah. Even as a kid, I thought it was lame. Like, I remember it was like... I mean, I feel like ventriloquist puppets were like a thing that we were supposed to be scared of in the early 90s. I remember there was like the Goosebumps books, like the dummy books, you know, and then there was like the movies with the ventriloquist dummies and stuff like, or like, what's it called? Puppet Masters. Yeah. So like puppets were a thing that like us 90s kids like feared. They were like scary. I guess if you watched it now, you'd be like, this is like the cheesiest thing ever.
00:22:44
Speaker
Back in the day, you're like, oh my God, that's such a heel move. He pulled out the puppet, you know? No, but in the promos, for SummerSlam 92, he would be like, yeah, Malaysia Doom's gonna win. What do you think, Rocco? And he would work the puppet like, yeah, I think he's gonna win. What is going on? What is the weirdest thing? How did Vince McMahon allow this? It's Vince McMahon.
00:23:08
Speaker
Oh well, we're getting a pretty cool little figure with it, so I'm stoked for it. For sure. Elite two pack? I have a hot take. I don't like two packs. I don't know why.
00:23:21
Speaker
Any two packs, like no battle packs or anything, or just the elite two pack? Well, I don't like the Bret Hard Goldberg two pack. I don't like this Mr. T Piper. I don't know if I just, if it just doesn't look like flush on my shelf or what, like I'm pretty anal about it. Oh yeah, you're a MOC people. I didn't even think about that. Yeah.
00:23:40
Speaker
Yeah, it just doesn't fit, you know, and this is also before my time and I can see why some old school fans like this is a Mr. T versus Roddy Piper and the kind of a boxing match. They both have boxing gloves on. So I mean, we're three months in and we already have three Mr. T figures already between the mass of the universe and all this stuff. So yeah, Mr. T is making a comeback.
00:24:03
Speaker
My favorite line of Mattel's is the Ultimate Edition, and this is Wave 6. We have Charlotte, which is a Ringside Collectibles exclusive, which comes with the pink robe. I already pre-ordered two of these already this morning.
00:24:22
Speaker
one for me and one for my buddy Daris and he pre-ordered the Rock Ultimate Edition which is on Amazon so you know we'll do a little trade ski you know save get them both order at the same time we get as much use that code Chick Foley for the most the best discount but this I mean as much as the Charlotte one is badass this Rock figure is amazing you have the three heads we have the Rock shirt
00:24:46
Speaker
You have the old school, like, added to their belt. My only complaint is the microphone it comes with has the new WWE logo on it, but that's very nitpicky. This might be the best rock figure ever made. And honestly, I've told people on this podcast, if you don't jump on these Ultimate Editions a year from now, two years from now, you're going to be spending $100, $120 for these figures. Oh, yeah, definitely. You know, once people see the articulation and just the heads and everything,
00:25:15
Speaker
They look awesome on shelves, they look awesome loose, you know, it's just, you know, and this is not going away. We've seen now, uh, previous for up to eight lines of this. So, uh, pretty good shit. Any comments on that before we move to, uh, series seven?
00:25:32
Speaker
No, I mean, you know I love the Ultimate Editions. I'm stoked. And I'm stoked that we're finally, after freaking five years, getting this Hollywood Hogan figure that we were promised before he went on his freaking tirade. But that's neither here nor there. We're finally getting the figure that we were owed.
00:25:51
Speaker
It's amazing. It comes with three heads, comes with the NWO spray painted title, the black and white boa. It's still a rendering, it's still kind of a drawing, but it comes also with the bandana with the sunglasses, the Hollywood hands.
00:26:10
Speaker
Did it right, and then also we heard rumors about this, the Fiend, so that's the Wave 7 is the Fiend and Hulk Hogan, that is not up for pre-order yet, but I'm sure Ringside Collectibles will get that, I would assume, before the next month or two to get it out for the holidays, we'll see.
Ultimate Editions Wave 7
00:26:27
Speaker
The Fiend comes with two heads and the Fiend Universal title. I feel like this is not a complete rendering yet. I know sometimes they'll put things out before they know what all the accessories are because there's nothing really ultimate about... I mean the belt is cool.
00:26:46
Speaker
Figure comes with a jacket, but you can't use a soft goods jacket as like an ultimate accessory because EO comes with a soft goods jacket, right? And she's just in the standard elite series. So there's got to be more to this, maybe a hammer, like, you know, a fun house hammer or like, you know, extra hands or something. Um, because to me, this is just kind of, it needs a little bit more.
00:27:07
Speaker
Well, you talked about Huskus is not included with the ringside. Funhouse set. Funhouse set. So maybe some of those figures will be grouped in with this. Maybe we'll get some sort of, you know, background playset. Possibly. We'll see. The Ultimate Editions do not disappoint. So moving on to Elite. Sorry, Ultimate Edition 8, which was a total surprise and they had Edge on the
00:27:34
Speaker
on the panel today on the YouTube channel. We get Edge with the two heads, has the rock and roll fingers. This is very reminiscent of his return at Royal Rumble. I would have loved it. I don't know if they're going to do a head that's more a younger head that you can swap on and off there, but this is pretty badass.
00:27:55
Speaker
And of course, my favorite reveal of probably the whole day today was the Macho Man Ultimate Edition Wave 8 with the loud ass, multicolored clothes, the green cowboy hat, and they said this will have the jacket with it.
00:28:12
Speaker
that has the tassels from it. Some of these pictures don't include some of that stuff. That was something that was said during that video, so maybe the fiend has some more stuff with it. We'll see that in the weeks to come, but this macho man, I might have to buy one loose and one mint on card. I can't believe they're still coming out with so many macho mans, but he's a very marketable guy, I'm sure.
00:28:34
Speaker
Yeah, very Toyota. Is that the right also media care? No, that's what I was wondering. This is very familiar against against Rick Flair. Yeah, it looks like it. No, no, that was that was like the gold one, right? Wasn't that the gold one? Oh, that was a gold one. That's right. It was. Yeah, this is this isn't here. This is from something. It looks so familiar. Yeah. Oh, man.
00:29:00
Speaker
And it's gonna bother me now. And it's gonna bother me too. Like stills. Maybe Roomba or SummerSlam? It's definitely not the retirement match because that was the purple and white. What the hell was that? Somebody listening right now is just yelling into their phone what this is from. Brains like mush right now. Because it was definitely before he was announcing and he was like kind of like you know that 91, 92 timeframe I don't know.
00:29:31
Speaker
Maybe SummerSlam against with SummerSlam92 with Ultimate Warrior. Googling it right now. It doesn't matter. Looks awesome. It doesn't matter. Yeah. Thank you, Sheena. Thanks for pushing us in for it. You're welcome. You're welcome. So yeah, we talked about the Ringside exclusive, Bray Wyatt with the Firefly Fun House. We don't know what that is. That's not for pre-order right now, isn't it? On Ringside?
00:30:01
Speaker
Yeah, it is. Yeah, definitely. We don't know if it's missing some components and maybe that shows up with the Ultimate Edition, but that is the Bray Wyatt with a bunch of the puppets. It's missing Huskus, which I have a problem with, and it needs a sweater. But other than that, I'm excited about it because we've been wanting a fun house set. But I feel like I'm just hoping that maybe there's a running change and they do a soft good sweater and maybe add Huskus.
00:30:29
Speaker
Um, you know, I'm surprised with the painted on sweater. Yeah. The other thing I noticed about that, uh, the, the puppets that he comes with, they're all hand puppets and they have holes on the bottom of them. So you can actually put them on the figure. Yeah. And Huskus isn't a hand puppet. He's a puppet. So maybe like the Vince puppet is a hand puppet.
00:30:50
Speaker
uh rambling rabbit and the uh what's the other one the mercy the buzzard yeah mercy the buzzard abby the witch abby the witch yeah they all have like kind of like holes in it so maybe you can you can put his hands inside and hold them like puppets the face on the figure is amazing i mean it's it's perfect yeah
00:31:09
Speaker
Well, I just saw breaking news major The major pod on their Instagram just posted pictures of the new pack figure packer pock. However, you want to say? Looks looks pretty good I don't know. I haven't counted his abs to see if it's like accurate if he's got like 37 abs or not, but They they posted a full rendering of orange Cassidy as well. It looks like they're trying to jump in on this
00:31:39
Speaker
All this all this figure talk action. Yeah, I don't want to piece that. I mean, he's he's arrested in like three or four months. I don't know why. No one's excited about that figure. Maybe Orange Cassidy, but. Oh, I'm excited. I'm excited about the Orange Cassidy figure out. So I mean, I'm not stoked about that. I mean, I don't I'm not popping for the Pac figure, but, you know, hey, somebody will.
00:32:01
Speaker
uh... let's talk about the legend series we have seven coming out now series eight we've talked about this is series nine uh... will include a nikolai vocal off which i'd i guess i need for a new generation collection because yeah i think so he came back part of the corporate corporation uh... i am excited to finally get a regular ted deviosity with the suit not just in the trunks it comes with the black suit and the uh...
00:32:29
Speaker
Yeah, the chase with the silver and silver and purple kind of suit in WrestleMania I'm excited about these the and let's let's go through all the legends we can talk about them all together Legend series 10 is DDP from his WWE run Brutus beefcake with the chase that was from his 1986 WrestleMania tag team run and I'm a little disappointed with these
00:32:56
Speaker
Series 9 and 10 here. These are not legends that I would think that would be highly sought after figures for people. Oh, definitely not. Nikolay Volkov, Brutus Beefcake from 86, like...
00:33:09
Speaker
I mean, I don't know who I would have done that isn't already. I guess they can't duplicate the. Yeah. Legends they've already done. Right. The original Legends series. Maybe they're just trying to think outside the box, you know. You've had Dusty, you've had Vader, you've had a lot of these guys already. L.O.D. Yeah, they did duplicate the next the next one, which I don't know why I put it after that. But in Series A, yeah, they did Jake and Jake was already a legend. True. Yeah. And that Jake is like the same. It's like the same one.
00:33:38
Speaker
Like we have that Jake in the green pants. Yeah. And it's a chase variant too. They have to, they have the purple of the. Yeah. The purple pants, Jake, I'm definitely going to get. Yeah. Uh, so yeah, we'll see how the legend series comes in. And maybe if that, I mean, sting hasn't shown up in AWS. I don't know what his holdup is with signing, resigning with WWE. Uh, I would love to see him resign. So we get some more sting figures. Shit.
00:34:05
Speaker
you know, uh, the elite fan collection series one. I can't believe this is again, a total, I mean, as great as Mattel is these, I don't care anything about these Rollins, Basler, Adam Cole, and, uh, Mickey the dragon steamboat.
00:34:24
Speaker
How do you not care about Shayna Baszler? This is awesome. She wears the same thing. She wears black outfit. I mean, I have a Shayna Baszler figure. It's just not different enough to like really make me care, you know?
00:34:37
Speaker
Well, maybe all those people who missed out on the original, well, you know, they'll be able to get their hands on this new chain of bays. Adam Cole just wears like black, uh, banana hammocks. Black and gold. Black and gold. So they're not terrible figures. I mean, like you said, it's just made for people that missed out on some of these folks.
00:34:56
Speaker
Don't let him hear you say that. He'll come at you like he did Pat McAfee. Oh, that's true, yeah. Yeah. 5'8", 5'8", Fury, you know. 5'8". Small figure. We finally saw the Elite Legends Series 8 in the packaging.
Elite Legends Series 8 Preview
00:35:13
Speaker
This is Warrior.
00:35:14
Speaker
Ultimate Warrior, Mr. Wonderful, Jake the Snake Roberts, and Mandy Greer. These should be available for pre-order any time now on Target, and then it'll probably get shipped to you three weeks after they're already on the pegs at Target. I'm definitely getting that warrior, though. Yeah, duh. Yeah, the penultimate warrior is pretty freaking awesome, dude. Yeah, I think the whole set is actually pretty sweet. I like the Mr. Wonderful, looks pretty cool with the soft goods robe.
00:35:42
Speaker
Obviously, Jake with the other, the bag, the soft goods bag, too, for the snake. I love the green bag, it's cool. Eddie Guerrero, I think this whole set is pretty actually pretty sweet. All the figures, I think it's gonna be one of the... Yeah, this might be the best one I've had. Yeah, nine and ten, kind of a letdown, but this one's pretty good. I mean, these are definitely made for us, right? If a kid is going into the store and seeing Brutus beefcake on the pegs, I don't think he's really picking that up. Right.
00:36:13
Speaker
No.
Top Picks 2021 Figures
00:36:14
Speaker
Elite top picks, 2021. These are already pre-order on Ringside Collectibles. This is Fiend, Drew McIntyre, Kofi Kingston, and Roman. So it looks like Seth and John Cena were booted out of that set. AJ. Oh, god. No, AJ. What are we going to do? Yeah, there's been no...
00:36:35
Speaker
I have a question. I mean, I'm building this women's set of elites. I mean, I'm surprised Trish Stratus hasn't got an elite in forever. Like, it's been a long time. She's come back. She had that match with Charlotte. Like, I've been holding out. I guess I'm just going to grab the one that she had back in like elite 30-something. A Hall of Fame elite. You don't want, we need a mom, Trish.
00:36:59
Speaker
I'll take a mom, Trish. A little breastfeeding Trish. I'm fine with that. Sorry, WABasics reveal. We got a lot of stuff here. A lot of NXT women, a medium, a Dakota
00:37:15
Speaker
Kai Attigan Knox, Tony Storm. So a lot of people that I hope get made into elites pretty soon. Humberto Carrillo. So a lot of basics coming up. So we will have more reveals on Friday, on Saturday, on Sunday and Monday.
Anticipated Reveals
00:37:31
Speaker
So four more days of reveals. What do you guys think? What do you guys think?
00:37:37
Speaker
Maybe the rest of these sets because they're not fully done like yeah more familiar series 83 More from 80 like maybe this extra stuff that I possibly don't know. It's like there's a lot already How did we how did we not talk about Goldberg and Brett to pack?
00:37:55
Speaker
Uh, we talked about it last week, but we didn't see the pictures of it until recently. And so we were kind of speculating whether it was going to be like a tag team version of Britain, um, Goldberg, or whether it was going to be the infamous plate spear version. Yeah. So we got the plate.
00:38:17
Speaker
But it's like it is like a total mash-up like it's like they didn't go either way in any direction I'm so confused by this set like it actually hurts my eyes to look at it a little bit Yeah, cuz he's in plain clothes when he did the steel plate he's wearing like the he's wearing a hockey jersey Yeah, yeah, it's kind of
00:38:40
Speaker
And also, the face is terrible. Brett Hart never smiled in his entire life. For those of you who can't see me at home, I've got my lips pursed together, but my teeth are pressed through my lips, so I'm smiling.
00:38:54
Speaker
Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's the face. That's the face. Yeah. Yeah, if I had my hair like pushed down to my face, it's like so they get that build from that face mold where you smile. Forty seven. Forty seven. Ninety nine right now on ringside for the two pack. Yeah. I mean, I try to be I try to be kind. But this this really kind of just like it boggles my mind what they were thinking. And they gave you like this generic WCW Nitro shirt.
00:39:23
Speaker
Instead of and I understand maybe they couldn't use like the like a branded licensed hockey jersey But at the same time like give me something make away hockey jersey Yeah, yeah, make it a day you make it a day to a day to a hockey jersey or something like yeah, I don't know it was a Little disappointing I've said that's one of my main Disappointments cuz when I saw that like when I saw them saying they were giving us Goldberg and Brett I was like, oh, what's it gonna be? You know
00:39:53
Speaker
The belt's pretty cool though, like the United States Championship, the old version of it is pretty sick. So I guess that Sasha Banks is not going to be a ringside exclusive anymore. It'll be moved to Elite 83. So here's what we have. We know about Elite 78, 79. Elite 80 is going to be Eric and Ivar from the war machine project or whatever they're called.
00:40:17
Speaker
experience yeah bailey bailey and ricochet so you get two open spots there you get two open spots on elite 81 you got four open spots on 82 and 83 so they have a lot of spots they can reveal here i'd like to keep some of that stuff kind of a surprise
00:40:34
Speaker
But we still don't know the target target exclusive for elite 80. Um, I don't, we don't know about retros coming back. I don't know if we're going to get a new line of figures. Maybe, um, we have some, we have some of the elite, the legends lines that are not filled in yet, like nine and 10. Maybe we get some new figures there. Um, I'm sure they're going to announce some, some basic battle packs, stuff like that. Um, some more elites, Keith Lee.
00:41:02
Speaker
Yeah. Is there a figure you guys are looking for? Keith Lee is a good one. I have another one that I think that might show up in one of these sets. What? Because I don't see a... Actually, hold on. I could be wrong. Let me see. Is Seth Rollins in any of these?
00:41:20
Speaker
He's at the fan takeover. That's it. Well, we'll talk about the regular lead series. So I'm thinking there might be a Monday Night Messiah. Oh, my god. Seth Rollins popping up somewhere with a big one, a leather jacket with a one glove. I would need that. Yeah, you know how people were clamoring when the Mandy Rose came out? Yeah.
00:41:44
Speaker
If the Seth Rollins man bun, single glove, fur jacket, oh my god. Best looking figure. Best looking figure of any pair. Sheena, Sheena, sometimes I see that Mandy Rose figure on my shelf and I'm like, man, should I? Should I shoot my shot?
00:42:01
Speaker
Shawshima shot at this figure? It's pretty sexy. Like what do you call it? You ever see Grandma's boy? You ever see that movie? Yes. Oh my god. The Lara Croft figure feels
Social Media and Giveaways
00:42:14
Speaker
like, dude, that is a, I mean, I don't even want to know how many mayonnaise around the world are living that life right now. That's, you know.
00:42:23
Speaker
But we have a bunch of more reveals coming up for the next couple of days. Stay tuned. Sheena is on Instagram at Chick Foley. I run the Twitter account at Chick Foley show.

00:42:39
Speaker
But we will be talking about all the reveals from Comic-Con on next week's show and I don't know if there's anything else. I mean, I'm surprised there's so many macho man's I have we have the master the universe. We have the ultimate edition that we have the rest of mania 3 Which is pretty cool. I was hoping for I will break my two-pack rule if we get a Mega Powers Macho man Hulk Hogan I got to go with that. Yeah, miss Elizabeth. I mean, that's that's the no-brainer. I mean
00:43:10
Speaker
to highlight a Bret Hart Goldberg feud from shitty WCW 2001. It was really grasping for straws. I don't know what they're thinking there, but we will see. Anything else to add before we get out of here, guys? No, I'm super excited. Stay tuned, because
00:43:29
Speaker
I mean, I can only imagine that things are gonna get better as the days go on. Hopefully. There we go. I'm being positive here. If any figures come up for pre-order the next couple weeks, make sure you use our code on Ringside Collectibles, Chick Foley. And if you do send us a screenshot, we will give you a shout out here on the show. But thank you guys for listening. We'll be back in touch and stay classy, Mark. We'll talk to you soon.
