The year is 2016. You just learned about Mattel Retros. You're doing backflips in your undies thinking about the possibilities of new 'WWF Hasbro' style figures that can be made! When all was said and done, an extra 40+ figures, including one 'orange card' wrestler who should've been included in the WWF Hasbro line all along! Thanks to Mattel, collectors were able to fill out their rosters in new ways they never imagined possible. So why did it end? Did they have unreleased WWE Retros figures, just like WWF Hasbro's? We cover all of these questions with this in depth look of WWE Retros by Mattel!

@TLC21 2 месяца назад

U make awesome videos n u have a great channel I've been telling all my collecting buddies about it since I found it. Hope u have much success

@CaptainMcKayRandom 3 года назад

I never realized how many Retro figures they made. It's awesome seeing Hasbro Bret against Retro Austin, kinda makes me wish I had that Austin even though my Hasbro Bret is the older Hart Foundation one haha. The only Retro I own is Kane, he's MOC and he's a really cool display piece. Always love your videos man, really great work here!

@ajwf 3 года назад

Kane is one of the better ones!!! Check my 100 I made on my video from retros lol

@ajwf 3 года назад

100%

@brianbane6199 3 года назад

Definitely bring them back! If Mattel doesn't, maybe Super 7 Could. Mattel only had like 5 different Molds. They made some bad choices In the way they used their molds. Undertaker & Kane looked great but They were to small in comparison to The other retro's. They should of just Used the same mold they used for Diesel for Kane & Undertaker it would Of been more accurate & give us a Removable hat for Undertaker. Mattel could of gave us some divas In the retro line as well as a referee

@granddidit 3 года назад

Well theyre back now lol

@AndreEichstedt 3 года назад

Awesome Video, I love these Figures ;-)

@kaylemathewcomendador6964 2 года назад

It looks like there’s gonna be some new WWE Retro figures coming up in Mattel Creations. So I guess the hiatus for the line is wrapping up, in a way.

@TURBOTOYS8 3 года назад

@user-mg6hb3te8v 4 месяца назад

@curbydinobot8633 3 года назад

Love the 2001 royal rumble thumbnail.

@Wireman97TKE 3 года назад

Amazing!

@ajwf 3 года назад

Also how did the miz not get one!

@kaylemathewcomendador6964 3 года назад

So Toys R Us going down in the US was one of the main reasons the Retro WWE line has stopped at the moment? Well that’s a big shame, as it did a pretty good job continuing and filling in gaps for the old Hasbro line.

@ajwf 3 года назад

Agreed there were a couple stinkers but the retro line was more good than bad

@williamthompson5504 2 года назад

Mattel creations is bringing them back. First 4 are a wrestlemania 1 theme. Cowboy Bob Orton, Mene Gene, Piper and Mr. T

@jamespaul6315 3 года назад

I just found this channel and hope theres more to come

@FigureCollections 3 года назад

Absolutely! I'm working on a 35 minute wrestling figure project that I hope people are going to enjoy!

@jamespaul6315 3 года назад

@@FigureCollections nice!

@_The_Worst_ 3 года назад

Yeah, I was only after a few of these figures from these new Mattel waves, and I didn't find most of the ones I wanted...💁🏻 I was never able to find that Randy Savage or Desiel figure...😒 Very upsetting...💯✔

@spartanisland9977 3 года назад

Finally another wrestling figs video!!! More please!

@FigureCollections 3 года назад

There's a big three part project coming soon that I've been working on for the last couple months! If you sub, I just might share the news!

@ADAM_COLLECTS 3 года назад

HBK did have the worst head scan, no doubt, but the pants deco and the action were great. They need to bring these back with more legends in two packs, be it rivals or tag teams. If Hasbro made one, then Mattel should make a twin, just like Warrior, undertaker, macho man, Flair, HBK

@manwithamic2372 3 года назад

I have an autographed kurt angle retro and it honestly one of my favorite figures I own

@RAMCO840 3 года назад

Now we need WWE WRESTLEFEST 2 VIDEO GAME !!!

@4thecollectors 2 года назад

Yes I ordered my box set from Mattel creations it is some guys already getting their figures in the Facebook groups I am in I predict maybe 55 or 60 figures before the line ends completely

@mrbluesteen 3 года назад

you should put your stores link in the videos description box

@robinstreecare3332 Год назад

Really enjoyed this however you missed the unreleased Enzo Amore that was shown at a toy fair

@FigureCollections 3 года назад

Its mentioned in the unreleased section

@brianparkinson605 2 года назад

No it’s not you clearly never mentioned him or showed pictures

@ahwwrestling538 2 года назад

I found series 7 all of them back in 2019 I had to pick them all up

@BigNoobEnteraintment 3 года назад

I get that tru was like the store for wwe to make wrestlemania waves but cmon you have ringside and Amazon and they could’ve made like ringside exclusive two packs or playsets

@rowie4life 3 года назад

I'd love for Mattel to do a online subscription, like they did for MOTU Classics, I would sub day one, I don't care who's be in it, I want them all.

@onionsavoya7543 3 года назад

Thats because WWE is telling us that we are living in a new golden age of wrestling.

@ADAM_COLLECTS 3 года назад

I think an online retail system is the way to go. Mattel need to cut out the middle man. The He-Man Classics line seemed to do pretty alright on Mattycollector, so, why not take a similar approach? I’m not in the business world so, I’m totally talking out of school

@bonebreakingaction6815 3 года назад

Bring em back please

@TheGamingNASCARWrestler 3 года назад

Do a video on WWE Ruthless Agression figures from 2003-2009

@fredericbontemps6569 3 года назад

It's been a fantastic idea to bring back to life this kind of figures, I have only a couple of complaints. The first one: ok, Mattel's Ric Flair is a lot better than Hasbro's, but in general Mattel figures look less realistic. For example, compare Ultimate Warrior from the two toylines: no comments. Plus, some figures like UW and Kurt Angle share this posture like they were sumo fighters, not wrestlers. Second complaint: still no Rey Mysterio and Eddie Guerrero? Really? WTF?? That said, I like these new figures, especially Mankind and Daniel Bryan (very well done, seem Hasbro more than Mattel, I love them)

@Rocn559 3 года назад

its Sean Penn acting as Shawn Michaels

@SteelSunday 2 года назад

Diesel was really absent from the hasbro's as a child...too bad the prices for many off these is insane already.

@CRS099 6 месяцев назад

Goldberg not having gloves is a crime!!

@TheBroadestBlue 2 года назад

The whole series was worth it for Diesel, and I loved that they did this. But in general, I was not a fan of how these figures were a little taller than the Hasbros on average, and reused generic body parts rather than bodies that were sculpted like specific wrestlers. Also, the Macho Man head sculpts just do not hold a candle to his original ones by Hasbro. All that said, I loved the Diesel, Brock Lesnar, New Day, Ric Flair, Kane, Undertaker, and Kevin Owens figures.

@TNUC_JOSH 3 года назад

Could you do one on WWF TTL style figures please! They are my favourite range.

@FigureCollections 3 года назад

That would be a MASSIVE video, so many series, sub series, two packs, playsets, rings, etc. I won't say no, but it might be a while before I take the time to write it :)

@Sevfin 3 года назад

I really hope they stage a come back for sure - I kept my fingers crossed for a re-release of Rick Rude, I always thought the Hasbro version was absolute garbage. I read Toys R Us was opening again in the states? Just recently....Its stayed open here in Canada but i haven't see these on the pegs anymore....some of them actually fetch really high prices on Ebay actually

@granddidit 3 года назад

well your wish came true! They showed pictures of a roddy piper and mene gene sketch (look it up)

@andrethegiant3035 Год назад

I sold an open Ric Flair for 140 bucks when I got two online when they came out on ringside collectibles for around 40. I’m not selling my MOC one til I’m ready to cash out baby! The 140 went to other figures I need like the SDCC Hulk and Zeus two back like come on.

Are on the same scale than Hasbro's vintage figures?

Dang that would be a fun one! Sadly I had a complete loose collection in 2019, but let it go. There is a good story there though, you're right! I'll see if I can add that to my schedule..

I didn't even like the original Shawn Michaels in rockers attire...when the retros were just coming out

@jaytizzlefoshizzle5347 3 года назад

Like i know everyone loves these (including myself) but honestly I think the new Masters of the WWE Universe figures are a lot cooler than these. The distribution on these guys at first was iffy at best series 1 was plentiful series 2 was non exsistant I only found a rock at a ollies like a year later then series 3 shelfwarmed minus AJ who was impossible to find for me and after that i never saw them at normal retail again only finding them at discount chains ollies, 5 below, and Ross. Not to mention as the line went in the quality kinda felt iffy as well. So while I love them I think they're kinda overrated but in a good way

@backupgoalie1007 Год назад

I'm an in box collector and liked the early sets with the nice clean card. I never bought any wrestler after the second wave because the cards look like crap modern toys that are there to promote the videogame. I can't speak for others but changing it from a collector series to a modern series with mostly modern wrestlers and the videogame promotion taking up so much of the packaging in my opinion killed off any hype the product had for in box collectors. It feels like so much wasted potential.
