San Diego Comic-Con 2014 Mattel WWE Panel Revealed!

July 13th, 2014 by Ringside Figures

The Mattel WWE San Diego Comic-Con 2014 Panel!

Mattel and WWE have made huge, strong showings at the San Diego Comic-Con since partnering up in 2010, and 2014 looks to be no different. With perhaps their most exciting panel ever, the 2014 San Diego Comic-Con brings top WWE Superstars and Legends to the stage and multiplies the excitement! The official statement reads:

Thursday, July 24 • 10:15am – 11:15am

Mattel and WWE: Over-the-Top-Action!
Two of the world’s top entertainment companies have teamed up for the ultimate panel at SDCC. WWE Superstars and Mattel designers will talk about the all-new WWE Network and give exclusive sneak peeks of Mattel’s upcoming WWE figure releases! Incredible guest appearances by Hulk Hogan, Daniel Bryan, Michael Cole, Paul Heyman, and you never know what else will be unveiled. This is a panel you won’t want to miss, brother!

The inclusion of Hulk Hogan opens a floodgate of questions that Mattel will hopefully (and likely) answer. With so many different iconic looks throughout his legendary career, a Mattel WWE Hulk Hogan figure comes with endless possibilities. With the nWo, Hulk Hogan’s classic runs as WWE Champion or even his return to the WWE in 2002, Hogan will have the more impact on the Mattel WWE line than arguably anyone produced as a Mattel WWE figure before him.

Daniel Bryan is currently on the WWE ‘disabled list’ but after his appearance at Money in the Bank 2014, is clearly still beloved. His appearance at SDCC 2014 is his only announced appearance for WWE in the near future, so it will give fans a chance to see him again and to check out more of his updated (and spot on) Mattel WWE figures.

Michael Cole has history with Daniel Bryan and the entire WWE Universe as they love to hate him but deep down, wouldn’t be able to live without him. With only one Mattel WWE figure to date, it’s possible that he could be announced in another line or just be showing up to give fans a hard time. Depending on which of Michael Cole’s diverse personalities we are getting, he will add an element of fun.

Paul Heyman, legendary in his own right, will likely have plenty to say about Brock Lesnar, the Undertaker, and even Daniel Bryan. With underlying conflict floating through the air, the pot will likely be stirred by Heyman and wherever he is, his ‘clients’ can’t be far behind. With two Mattel WWE figure treatments to his name, Paul Heyman can always be due for more.

Also, Mattel will be offering sneak peeks at upcoming Mattel WWE figures as they do every year. With so many amazing wrestling figures produced so far, fans still have loads of legends and modern superstars they want to see given the treatment. San Diego Comic-Con is always a big step in filling that need for collectors and fans!

Lana and Rusev are in Complete Control of the WWE!

July 9th, 2014 by Ringside Figures

In your Mattel WWE collection, Lana and Rusev own you! The Russian beauty and her beast of a WWE Superstar have taken the WWE Universe by storm. With a striking look being delivered by Lana and immense pain being delivered by Rusev, the sky seems to be the limit for these newcomers hailing from the motherland. A Mattel WWE wrestling figure of both WWE Superstar Rusev and WWE Diva Lana are on the horizon and shining on wrestling figure collectors like a red sun! Whether they are together or separate, both will be sought after by the fans.

Mattel WWE Lana wrestling figure!

Lana wears here incredible ‘well fitted’ suits to the WWE ring week after week and fans are as jaw-dropped by her beauty as they are by her harsh, intense words. Coming in multiple colors, when Lana is released as a Mattel WWE figure her fashionable suits will offer multiple options. She is striking in black, but some may prefer her blue suits or even a ravishing red.

Mattel WWE Rusev wrestling action figure!

Rusev’s intensity and beastly size will more than likely require a new body mold from Mattel to capture his physique perfectly and truly offer a great representation. With huge arms, a giant frame and a no-nonsense wrestling attitude, fans want to grab Rusev to complete their roster of newcomers who have burst on to the WWE scene. His trunks have seldom changed, showing off his huge, muscular thighs and bearing his name in a harsh blue or red and black. His Mattel WWE figure will most likely include his standard outfit. An Elite Rusev could include additional accessories as Rusev begins to grow and add to his arsenal.

Lana and Rusev as Mattel WWE wrestling action figures!

All good, powerful things come in pairs and there is nothing more obviously meant to be paired than Rusev and Lana in a Mattel WWE Battle Pack. Lana’s introduction of Rusev make him a cold, calculated opponent on the way to the ring. For the two of them to be together and immortalized in a Mattel WWE Battle Pack would be a win for fans of the duo…and a win for Mother Russia!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 Now Available For Pre-Order!

May 23rd, 2014 by Ringside Figures

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 wrestling action figures!

The Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 set features some of the hottest tag teams and rivalries in the WWE today! With newcomers, close siblings and deep rooted grudge matches, the variety is clear this time around. Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 includes:

Los Matadores
Cody Rhodes & Goldust (The Rhodes Brothers)
CM Punk vs. Ryback

Since debuting in the WWE, Los Matadores have brought a stark contrast to the seriousness of the tag team division’s mainstays like The Shield and the Wyatt Family. With wildly exaggerated movesets and eccentric bull fighter outfits, they have become fan favorites among the WWE’s younger generation of fans. With their bull El Torito accompanying them to the ring, their matches have proved entertaining. The Mattel WWE Los Matadores figures will likely feature their pink face masks and current outfits. El Torito is also rumored to be released in an upcoming Mattel WWE Series set, so fans who love Los Matadores will be able to re-create their unique brand of silly action.

Cody Rhodes and Goldust enjoyed a renaissance as they teamed together and captured the WWE Tag Team Championships. Brothers who have long wanted to work together but have been unable to, Cody Rhodes and Goldust took advantage of the opportunity they were given and had a successful run. However, they have since lost their championship glory and Cody has grown increasingly frustrated with his brother. While they haven’t quite moved on from each other, the outlook doesn’t look great. Maybe if they saw their triumphant team-up immortalized in Mattel WWE wrestling figure form they would be more apt to work out their differences.

CM Punk has not been seen nor heard from in the WWE since the 2014 Royal Rumble. Ryback, who once feuded heavily with CM Punk, has moved on to specialize in tag team wrestling with Curtis Axel, but at one point these two monstrous WWE Superstar personalities were at each others throats. Both former ‘Paul Heyman guys,’ this Mattel WWE Battle Pack will likely commemorate their short feud over the services of a manager they both thought they could trust. Though neither ended up benefiting from Paul Heyman in the end, they managed to do their best to outperform each other and it may have been one of CM Punk’s last great endeavors in the WWE.

April 18th, 2014 by Ringside Figures

The Wyatt Family (Erick Rowan & Luke Harper)
Big E Langston & AJ Lee
The Usos (Jimmy Uso & Jey Uso)

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 AJ Lee & Big E!

AJ Lee & Big E now have taken their friendship to a new level as they are included in a Mattel WWE Battle Pack together! With a newer headsculpt and updated attire, AJ Lee’s pinnacle of success is represented alongside a hulking, ready to attack Big E. With new attires for both figures, fans who haven’t added either to their collection have the perfect opportunity to do so.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Erick Rowan & Luke Harper!

The long awaited debut of the other two members of The Wyatt Family hasn’t disappointed! Luke Harper’s debut Mattel WWE figure includes a massive beard and sweat stain detail on his white shirt. Erick Rowan has a completely unique body mold to cater to his jumpsuit ring attire. Also included is Bray Wyatt’s rocking chair, making this Battle Pack not just a necessity to complete the Wyatt Family collection but to make Bray Wyatt as strong a force in your wrestling figure world as possible!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 The Usos!

The current WWE Tag Team Champions and ever-popular Usos have finally been given an updated version akin to how they look in a WWE ring in the modern day. With painted faces, yellow and blue attire and even a surfboard, these islanders showcase their wrestling family heritage and finally have spot on wrestling figures to represent just how valuable to the tag team division and the WWE Universe they are. Wrestling figure fans can now re-enact their awesome entrance with ease thanks to this Battle Pack.

Hulk Hogan and John Cena at WrestleMania XXX!

March 24th, 2014 by Ringside Figures

Hulk Hogan and John Cena at WrestleMania 30!

Two of the most iconic faces to ever grace the WWE Universe are Hulk Hogan and John Cena. With Hulk Hogan’s return to a WWE ring on the way to WrestleMania XXX, he will be hosting the big event and has constantly eluded to the fact that he is not afraid of getting physical with any WWE Superstar that thinks he has lost a step. John Cena has never shown any aggression towards Hulk Hogan, but he has stated over the years that Hogan is one of his all time favorites, and with his problems he continues to have with the Wyatt Family, who better to call on than the Immortal Hulk Hogan for help? With a Hulk Hogan Mattel WWE figure on the horizon, fans will soon be able to re-enact Hulk Hogan rescuing John Cena from the Wyatt Family, whether it happens in the WWE or not!

Mattel WWE Series 39 John Cena!

John Cena sees more Mattel WWE releases than almost every other WWE Superstar, and his latest is a perfect representation of the leader of the CeNation. With his perfectly cropped haircut, huge muscles and shorts ring attire in WWE Series 39, John Cena is ready, will and able to defend his own honor anytime, any place. He will never admit to being anything other than indestructible, and despite the fear of the Wyatt Family he is experiencing, he would never ask for help from Hulk Hogan. If Hogan were to show up in his defense, however, Cena would be hard pressed not to accept.

Mattel WWE Series 39 Bray Wyatt!

Bray Wyatt is terrifying both John Cena and the WWE Universe with his cult-like attacks and targeting of Cena himself. With his first Mattel WWE release in Series 39, he is not only making his presence known in the ring, but in the wrestling figure world. The figure is a must have for those looking to really put the pressure on their John Cena collection. After all, one Bray Wyatt shouldn’t be able to successfully defeat over 100 John Cena figures, right?…Right?

Mattel WWE Hulk Hogan wrestling figure!

Hulk Hogan has returned to the WWE and has (so far) stayed out of most of the affairs of the WWE Superstars. Looking as if he hasn’t changed a bit, Hulk Hogan could shock and surprise fans with a return to the ring in 2014 if he is in as good a shape as he claims to be. If he does return to the ring, a Mattel WWE Hulk Hogan figure featuring his modern day look would be a necessity. Wrestling figure fans could face off their Hulk Hogan figure with any Superstar on the WWE roster that also has a figure, leaving an endless amount of possible fantasy match-ups. A boa accessory, bandana or sunglasses wouldn’t hurt, either.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Erick Rowan & Luke Harper!

If John Cena were indeed to receive back-up from Hulk Hogan in his challenges against Bray Wyatt, the Wyatt Family would be sure to follow. Luke Harper and Erick Rowan have been part of the relentless attacks against Cena and would defend their Wyatt Family leader to the absolute end, even if it meant having to stand up to an icon like Hulk Hogan. With a Mattel WWE release in Battle Packs 28, both Harper and Rowan can join in on any conflict of Bray Wyatt’s against WWE figures, including Hogan.

The Usos and Rikishi…Like Father Like Sons!

March 24th, 2014 by Ringside Figures

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 The Usos!

The Usos are the hottest tag team in the WWE today, and arguably the best in the world as they carry the WWE Tag Team Championships! Their island-style, urban personalities and excellent team-work have brought them great success and the foundation for this can at times be attributed to their equally successful father, former WWE wrestler and Superstar Rikishi Fatu. Rikishi was a staple of the WWE Attitude Era, dancing with Too Cool and chasing the WWE Championship at his pique. The Usos dance at the end of every successful match, just like their dad, and carry his fearless, carefree attitude.

Mattel WWE Elite 27 Rikishi!

Released in Mattel WWE Elite 27 with an entrance sarong accessory and sunglasses, Rikishi has always known how to get the fans on their feet and behind his in-ring challenges. Finishing his matches with the ‘stink face’ finisher, he left his mark on his opponent and shocked fans around the world regularly. He has returned to the WWE in recent years to celebrate with his sons, Jimmy and Jey Uso, when they happen to have victories on nights that he is around.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 The Usos!

In Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28, the Usos are scheduled to make their long awaited return to the Mattel WWE line. It is a complete mystery as to what they will look like, but they have featured new, colorful outfits and elaborate face paint since their last Mattel WWE Battle Pack was released. The influence that Rikishi has had on the Usos is clear in that they tend to maintain a happy-go-lucky yet confidently aggressive approach to any and all matches they perform in. Their unique entrance is also similar to Rikishi’s in that it gets a reaction from the WWE Universe in attendance every time. Soon, fans will be able to have both Rikishi and the Usos in one place and have a tag team match featuring two generations.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 Lineup Revealed!

March 21st, 2014 by Ringside Figures

The Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 lineup has been revealed, much to the excitement of wrestling action figure fans. Including new releases and a possible now-missing old favorite, this set is going to be hotly anticipated. It includes:

Los Matadores (Diego & Fernando) with 2 hat accessories
Ryback & CM Punk with table accessory
Cody Rhodes & Goldust with two Tag Team Championship accessories

Since making their way onto the tag team scene of WWE, Los Matadores have become fan favorites as they are accompanied by El Torito and wear flamboyant, colorful outfits. With wrestling skill to back up their antics, wrestling figure fans will likely pit them against their other established tag teams.

Although CM Punk has disappeared from the WWE radar, the now disgruntled Ryback still attempts to make as much of an impact as possible. With a table accessory, this Battle Pack could be a wrestling figure fan’s way to send CM Punk out the door correctly, with a massive loss to the machine, Ryback. Or, the Battle Pack could set the stage for CM Punk’s triumphant return.

Cody Rhodes and Goldust are living out their dream of being siblings working together and taking the WWE by storm. This Battle Pack will likely commemorate their hugely successful WWE Tag Team Championship run, capturing the titles from The Shield and defending them against worthy suitors. An updated Mattel WWE Goldust figure has been sought after by fans so they likely won’t be disappointed!
