Hulk Hogan vs. CM Punk…Mattel WWE Makes It Happen!
CM Punk and Hulk Hogan have not seen or spoken to each other in ages, and they have never appeared on WWE television together. However, every single member of the WWE Universe and more importantly, every single wrestling fan knows that Hulk Hogan and CM Punk have been at odds with each other recently due to Hulk Hogan’s NHL hockey playoff comments. CM Punk, a rabid and loyal Chicago Black Hawks fan, has not taken kindly to Hulk Hogan’s comments about his team. Hulk Hogan, in turn, has called CM Punk a ‘puck’ and gone out of his way to fire back at his criticisms in favor of the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Mattel WWE Elite 37 Now Available for Pre-Order!
Fans are rejoicing as the Mattel WWE Elite Series 37 has finally been placed for pre-order at Ringside Collectibles. With a few of the figures already seen by the public, it looks to be one of the most popular series in recent memory. Mattel WWE Elite 37 includes:
- Stephanie McMahon
- John Cena
- Dean Malenko
- The Miz
- Brock Lesnar
- Seth Rollins
Mattel WWE Battle Packs 35 & Mattel WWE Battle Packs 36 Line-Ups Announced!
Tag Team and team-up and rivalry fans, rejoice! The Mattel WWE Battle Packs 35 and Mattel WWE Battle Packs 36 line-ups have finally been announced.
The Mattel WWE Battle Packs 35 includes:
- Curtis Axel & Ryback
- Jack Swagger & Zeb Colter
- Kane & Roman Reigns
Finding a common ground in talent and aggression, Curtis Axel and Ryback came together to create Rybaxel. Providing a unique blend of muscle and wrestling ability, they created a bit of an unmatched tag team with wins, but more conflict than success. Ryback always makes sure to bring colorful, airbrushed outfits forward. Curtis Axel has recently proven that ‘Axelmania’ is runnin’ wild, but that is highly unlikely to appear as an attire for this figure based on how recently it happened. Only time will tell.
Kane has been doing Triple H’s corporate bidding since his rise to authoritative power. This means stopping Roman Reigns from being the ‘next big thing,’ so it’s no surprise the two massive forces would collide. Kane has both worn his mask and wrestled without it as of late, so it’s possible he could be ‘corporate’ or a fiery, unleashed version of himself. Roman Reigns wrestles with the power of a super human, so the more figures that fans can get their hands on of him, the better. It’s important to have access to your hero.
Jack Swagger and his uncle Zeb Colter represent a down, dirty and extremely proud sense of what it means to be Americans, whether the people around them like it or not. Together, they make sure that upon their arrival, fans shout ‘WE THE PEOPLE!’ Since this is the first time Jack Swagger and Zeb Colter will appear together, it will likely provide an updated look for both the collegiate wrestling WWE Superstar and his grizzled veteran of an uncle.
The Mattel WWE Battle Packs 36 includes:
- New Day (Big E & Kofi Kingston)
- Seth Rollins & Dean Ambrose
- The Outsiders (Scott Hall & Kevin Nash)
Since grooving and singing together on WWE television and praising about the coming of a ‘New Day,’ Big E and Kofi Kingston are brighter and bluer than ever! It’s extremely likely that the Mattel WWE Battle Packs 36 Kofi Kingston and Big E will be dressed in ‘New Day’ attire, possibly including vests and dusters, so fans can build depth for their tag team division.
Dean Ambrose took Seth Rollins’ betrayal of The Shield extremely personally. He’s now a loose cannon and will likely never be the same, with a newfound aggression that he loves to take out on the likes of villainous Superstars like Rollins himself. Though they have been running on separate paths since the breakup of The Shield took place, they will likely one day meet again with explosive results. Fans get that now with the Mattel WWE Battle Packs 36, which should included updated, non-Shield looks for both Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins.
The Outsiders are one of the most legendary villainous tag teams of all time. Scott Hall and Kevin Nash invaded WCW and changed the wrestling world forever as founding members of the nWo. They wore colorful outfits along the way, but there is speculation that their most recent WrestleMania appearance could bring new, updated versions of The Outsiders to the Mattel WWE toy line. If not, it’s likely that Scott Hall will have his iconic red and black vest and gear, and ‘Big Sexy’ Kevin Nash will be sporting a red or black ‘Outsiders’ style getup.

Ringside Fest 2014 Recap!
Another Ringside Fest has come and gone, this time with an all-star WWE lineup and some amazing looks at upcoming Mattel WWE wrestling figures! Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose, The Bella Twins, Goldust & Stardust all had a great time at the event, signing autographs and taking pictures for fans as they got to see the newest Mattel WWE toys.
A Mattel WWE Defining Moments Hulk Hogan had fans oohing, ahhing and getting excited to let Hulkamania run wild as they finally get their hands on the Hulkster himself. The figure comes with a cloth shirt, old-school WWE Championship, bandana & chain, making a perfect first representation of Hogan as he enters the Mattel WWE line. He was also present at the event in WWE basic forms, both classic style and modern day style!
Dean Ambrose, who signed autographs at the event and met tons of fans, got a first look at his newest Mattel WWE figure, complete with street-fighting look that he has made famous since the disbandment of The Shield.
Fans of the ‘Bad Guy’ Scott Hall were treated to another look at the upcoming Mattel WWE Defining Moments Razor Ramon figure, complete in purple attire and ready to flick tooth picks at opponents!
Overall, Ringside Fest 2014 was a great success and fans were treated to closer looks of Mattel WWE figures that they didn’t get to see up close at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. The fans were happy, the WWE Superstars were happy and Ringside Collectibles was thrilled to have so many loyal customers, fans and friends at Carolines on Broadway in New York City!

Mattel WWE Elite 30 Now Available For Pre-Order!
The Mattel WWE Elite 30 wrestling action figures are now available for pre-order! With a great mix of modern day Superstars and WWE Legends, fans are already clamoring for this Elite sets’ release!
Mattel WWE Elite 30 includes:
- Lex Luger
- Brock Lesnar
- Ryback
- Animal (Legion of Doom)
- Hawk (Legion of Doom)
- Batista
With Lex Luger’s first Mattel WWE figure treatment ever, fans are to be treated to a representation of the Lex Express himself during his pique WWE days just before jumping ship to WCW. Likely red, white and blue American style attire will be what Lex dons for his first Mattel release and a physique like no other, full of unmatched muscle.
Brock Lesnar has not received an updated Mattel WWE Elite since Series 19, so fans of the Next Big Thing will likely be thrilled to see an updated version of the man who single-handedly destroyed Undertaker’s WrestleMania reputation. Expect a bigger, badder and angrier version of the life-time Paul Heyman guy.
Ryback has re-invented himself as a tag team specialist but his brute strength and size have remained the same as he jumps in to another Mattel WWE Elite set. With a selection of singlets as massive as his arms, Mattel should have no problem delivering a detailed, exciting version of the Big Guy to the Feed Me Morons.
The Legion of Doom includes Hawk and Animal and were represented in the Mattel WWE Legends 1 Series with old school attires. Leaving a bit to be desired for fans in both look and body shape, Hawk and Animal make their return in Mattel WWE Elite 30, likely in the red and black Road Warrior gear they are most well known for. With rumors of a new body shape for Animal, Hawk can’t be far behind and wrestling figure collectors will receive the versions of this legendary tag team that they’ve been waiting for.
Batista made his return to the WWE just in time for the Royal Rumble. Despite negative fan reaction and leaving the WWE once again, he has forced himself to stay overwhelmingly positive and take the feedback of the haters with a grain of salt. All hate aside, wrestling figure fans are looking for an updated, modern day version of the Animal who makes his first appearance in an Elite set since his original departure.

Mattel WWE Series 41 Now Available For Pre-Order!
The newly announced Mattel WWE Series 41 will feature some of the most powerful, intense and silly WWE Superstars that the WWE has to offer! The set is now up for pre-order and includes:
- Santino Marella
- Bray Wyatt
- Daniel Bryan
- Drew McIntyre
- Antonio Cesaro
- Fandango
Santino Marella receives his first Mattel WWE figure treatment since the pique of the “Cobra era” and he still carries the old, trusty snake around. This figure could possible feature that Cobra built in once again, but chances are we could be seeing a standard Santino this time around.
The whole world is in the hands of Bray Wyatt, who just recently enjoyed the release of his first ever Mattel WWE figure. This time around we can likely see a more colorful shirt or a different type of ring pants from the frightening Wyatt Family leader. Hopefully his Mattel WWE action figure won’t hypnotize the young owners who enjoy playing with it!
Antonio Cesaro has cemented his place as one of the strongest members of the WWE roster after winning the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal and swinging some of the biggest WWE Superstars like rag dolls. He has proven to be a literal super man, and will more than likely receive a new headsculpt treatment after his previous Mattel WWE Series figure left fans with a bit to be desired in that respect.
Fandango has danced his way into our hearts and souls providing arrogant comic relief amongst his wrestling talent. His latest Mattel WWE figure could feature a different style of facial hair and with so many colorful attire choices, it wouldn’t be surprising to see the most colorful Fandango yet, and that’s saying a lot.
Drew McIntyre has let his intensity hang loose to take a much more laid back approach to the WWE as a member of the 3 Man Band. 3MB finds McIntyre wearing leather pants, head bands and rocking out with the other members. This will be the first Drew McIntyre Mattel WWE wrestling figure in quite a while, so fans will more than likely be excited to expand their roster with him if they didn’t get the chance when he was a bit more…serious.
The leader of the Yes! Movement, Daniel Bryan has followed his dreams and made them all come true. He shows up in Mattel WWE Series 41 and will hopefully have a new headsculpt and an excited demeanor. His outfit will likely show off his style as WWE World Heavyweight Champion or even throw back to the challenges he faced while chasing that championship glory. Either way, the WWE Universe will be able to get behind their current leader.

Mattel WWE Elite 28 Prototype Images Revealed!
The Mattel WWE Elite 28 wrestling action figures have finally been officially revealed by Mattel through prototype images!

The Mattel WWE Elite 28 Series includes:
- Daniel Bryan
- Triple H
- Big Show
- Demolition Crush
- Bray Wyatt
- John Cena
The Big Show finally gets treated to a new headsculpt, showing off a spot on smile that looks just like the giant’s real life counterpart. With blue boots and a blue and white, camouflage style singlet he receives an updated look based on his most recent featured time in WWE, minus the crying, sobbing and constantly upset behavior he displayed. Included is a back stage digital screen stand, featuring another WWE Superstar!
Triple H has made Daniel Bryan’s life a living hell and does his best to serve as COO of the WWE while remaining in the spotlight. In his latest Mattel WWE Elite figure he proves he is the King of Kings, complete with crown, sledgehammer, golden helmet and brand new, short haired headscan. His trunks have also been updated to reflect his most recent in ring performances.
One third of the legendary stable ‘Demolition,’ Demolition Crush joins Demolition Ax and Demolition Smash as a Mattel WWE action figure! Crush’s first Mattel WWE figure treatment, his long hair, armored ring attire and trademark facepaint have all been represented here. Now the team of three can join any Mattel WWE Legends collector’s collection.
John Cena is all smiles as he receives a figure in yet another Mattel WWE Elite set, this time with a headsculpt featuring a wide, white toothed grin. With a removable arm band, dog tags, hat and new color scheme, the CeNation can easily get behind his latest treatment and use it to fight all of their battles with evil WWE Superstars. A must for any John Cena fan, this is the latest and best version of the world’s favorite controversial face of the WWE.
Bray Wyatt may have the whole world in his hands, but now fans can have Bray Wyatt in their hands as the leader of the Wyatt Family is finally a Mattel WWE action figure. With a removable shirt and hat and a sadistic grin, Bray Wyatt beckons all Mattel WWE fans to ‘follow the buzzards’ and is represented with an incredible likeness and accurate tattoos. Any Mattel WWE wrestling figures fan or any WWE Universe member who is a fan of the Wyatt Family can now lead their ‘sheeple’ into battle with a fearless, and sometimes very frightening, leader.
After a wild chase that began with menacing defeat at Summerslam 2013 and ended with amazing triumph at WrestleMania XXX, Daniel Bryan can finally rightfully call himself the true, undisputed WWE World Heavyweight Champion. His latest Mattel WWE Elite figure features a sign showing clear support from the WWE Universe and the new, updated WWE Championship. Oh, and don’t forget the bushy, wild, and well respected beard.
