DSTZach Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Yeah, there were a lot of factors at play in this set, but in a perfect world Samoa Joe and MJF would be at the top of my list. Saraya, Hikaru, Toni and Skye would be in fierce competition for the last two spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freaqualizer Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I really wanna see a minimate Luchasaurus/Killswitch. I think he’d be toyetic as heck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellpop Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 AEW set three is now up for preorder from most retailers. As always, you should use Luke, because he's Luke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke314pi Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 The rings just arrived! I do like how these are packaged - you get a great view of everything included, and it looks well made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tribble_WC Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Question about the ring, are the ring ropes plastic? Or are they the stretchy ropes like other figure rings use? Thank you in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 That looks great! Apparently I never preordered it, so it gave me a reason to place a nice big Luke order. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you in advance. They are plastic with only a tiny bit of movement, which I actually prefer, because on other toy rings I have had, the elastic ones droop badly over time.

hellpop Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Got my ring today; it's very cool. I do still question including an announcer with it rather than, you know, some wrestlers; I understand the thinking that it will force people to go and buy one of the box sets, but I think it's just as likely that people will pass on this set entirely because they don't have anyone to play in it with. Stick MJF and Eddie Kingston in here instead of Excalibur and all the weapons and I think you've got a total home run. Anyway, I am very much enjoying the AEW line, though I do wish we had some belts for these guys. I need to declare some champions! I was looking at that old WWE line from a few years ago to see if they had any compatible parts, and I had forgotten just how awful those figures were. Maybe the worst minifigures ever made?

nandoninny Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 (edited) so, i bought this mainly FOR the announcer. i'm not a wrestling guy and have passed on all the set. i figure i have enough minimates that would look cool in here i don't need any real wrestlers. that said, series 2 has some cool looking folks in there and the 3rd has more so maybe i'll buy those. but i'm mainly a luchadore guy b/c of the masks and what not. as for C3, i actually bought some sets years ago just for the rings and the great sets they made but gave all the minifigures to my nephew. i still have most of the sets (undertaker stuff mainly but also some motorcycles that work pretty well for minimates) but i gave him the ring when i saw how big it was.

DSTZach Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Series 4 has been designed! Not sure when they'll be announced, but I think we are hoping to reveal at least one at SDCC. We may have a special guest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCW Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Eh, the C3 WWE figures are great. They're very similar to Minimates and they're quite poseable and sturdy. They're a bit ugly certainly, but they're very good figures overall. Hopefully we get a Sting before his contract runs out. He's clearly going to sign a WWE deal as soon as his contract with AEW is up and it'd be nice to get an official Sting minimate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Sting is in Series 3, which has been up for pre-order for a few months now. I think we actually revealed him over a year ago. And he retired from all wrestling, as far as I know. I don't think he is going to WWE. https://www.diamondselecttoys.com/aew-series-3-minimates-box-set/ But I respectfully disagree with you about the WWE C3 figures. 🤢 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have it pre-ordered. The C3 figures are great, well made, poseable figures. I mixed and matched with a lot of MMs when they first came out. Different and uglier aesthetic, but they're well made.

hellpop Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 AEW Series 4 (the card is mislabeled). Ospreay, Ospreay! I swear, I had no idea at all who the figure on the left is, but I guess that's MJF??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
