Not being a regular reader at WrestlingFigs.com, I didn’t know that they held a special event with Mattel’s WWE team this past weekend in New York City. But I did find some pictures of upcoming figures at the Mattel WWE and fan Jason Linnick’s Facebook pages. I’m particularly psyched to see the Defining Moments Ultimate Warrior, and Legends Series 5 – Akeem the African Dream, Macho Man Randy Savage, the Model Rick Martel, and Bam Bam Bigelow.
This weekend the Mattel WWE team went to NYC for Ringside Fest, the WWE collecting convention sponsored by Ringside Collectibles. We had a great time showing off new figures, talking face-to-face with collectors, and answering questions during the fan Q&A. We posted a few pictures below, but stay tuned to WrestlingFigs.com for continuing coverage this week.
Here’s a closer look at the Batman Begins Demon Batman and Scarecrow exclusive Hot Toys figure set, celebrating Hot Toys’ 10th Anniversary. This set will be available in Japan at Hot Toys’ 10th anniversary celebration event. This set will be priced at around $348 dollars (converted from 28,000 Japanese Yen) and limited to 4,000 pieces, if I read the translation correctly.
I’m not too jazzed about the Demon Bats, but I may need to find a way to get the Scarecrow on his own.
Here’s a closer look at the Beat It version of the Michael Jackson exclusive Hot Toys figure, celebrating Hot Toys’ 10th Anniversary. This figure will be available in Japan at Hot Toys’ 10th anniversary celebration event. This figure will be priced at around $223 dollars (converted from 18,000 Japanese Yen) and limited to 4,000 pieces, if I read the translation correctly.
Oof. Exclusive Hot Toys figures available at Christmas, only in Japan? This will put a dent in many holiday budgets.
We’ll have a closer look at the Michael Jackson and Batman Begins figures up shortly.
