Yeah- I think it's an A+ idea; so far, I give the execution a solid B. I think that none of the figures alter the looks of the characters' ring gear enough- they should integrate more of the aesthetics of MOTU in to the designs, not just some gauntlets and weapons. They pretty much look like figures of the wrestlers in MOTU style, but still in their ring gear, with some MOTU-inspired accessories. None of them are wearing the trademark "furry boots" or "furry underwear" that MOTU is known for. The single-pack Triple H should be in a Skeletor-inspired color scheme, complete with a yellow skull on his armor. Sting should have a Scareglow-like cape with collar, in reference to his trenchcoat, and a MOTU-style club weapon inspired by his baseball bat (Not sure what's up with the weird nunchakus). Cena should basically be dressed like He-Man, but in a Cena-inspired color scheme. It looks like they're amping up the MOTU a bit with Wave 2- hopefully that continues.
He also has translucent weapons...because "You can't see me". Kind of a subtle reference, but one I enjoy immensely despite not being a fan of the guy. Scareglow is the theme for the upcoming Undertaker figure. |

This has been happening since before Christmas as far as I can tell. Walmart site is changing price to match what it sees the figures for on Amazon, but it doesn't seem to be distinguishing between Amazon third party and Amazon proper. It's a pretty shitty business practice, and I'm not sure that anything can be done as it's their prerogative to sell something 100% above MSRP.
Wonder if there are some official news about retail price? and if could be possible to use it as reference for talking with customer services. EDIT: good news! Almost all the wave is at retail price 14.99. I got a couple of Triple H, I think looks awesome! Damn, it was almost like Walmart was reading us hehe. Happy hunting!

So much for me holding out on these. At a $7.00 price tag...when the ring is being sold separately by itself for 20 bucks, how could I resist?
Check your clearance aisles if you haven't already! |

I just assumed they didn't need to add much to Warrior in order for him to fit in with the MOTU aesthetics but, (pre) He-Man did have a big spear like that in the mini-comics.

10/10 I love these. Mattel has been out this world with WWE. If only they gave DC half the same love

Shit, you are right. I knew that when messing with it due to the glow in the dark, but forgot while writing it up. I was thinking armor / parts, not the GITD and tats.

Great pictures. This is a really fun line and I also hope it goes for a long time. Need to get my hands on that Jake. Still looking for Undertaker.

Desperately need that T. Having both Fisto and Jitsu hands would kind of be the equivalent to boxing gloves in the MOTU world so kind of a cool nod to Clubber Lang there..

I know he did stuff with the WWF but I never really equate Mr. T with it so seeing him there was a surprise.
