Alright, alright, let’s talk about these here WWE Ultimate Edition figures, ya know, the ones them kids are always yappin’ about. I heard some folks callin’ it a “checklist,” fancy word for a list, I reckon. So, I’m gonna tell ya what I know, simple and plain, like it is.
First off, these things, they ain’t cheap! But them kids, they love ’em. They got all sorts of wrestlers, fellas I used to watch on that there TV back in the day. You got yer Hulk Hogan types, and then these new fellas with the funny names. I can’t keep track, too many of ’em!
Now, this “Ultimate Edition,” that means they’re fancy, see? They got extra heads, extra hands, and all sorts of little things they carry around. Belts and hats and such. My grandson, he’s got a whole box full, spends all his allowance on ’em. He’s always lookin’ for the new ones, askin’ me to drive him to the store every week. Drives me nuts, but what can ya do?
- You got yer fellas with the big muscles.
- Then you got yer sneaky fellas, the ones that cheat.
- And don’t forget the ladies, they’re tough too!
So, how do you keep track of all these figures? That’s where this “checklist” comes in. It’s just a list, see? It tells you which wrestlers they made, when they came out, and all that jazz. Some folks online, they got these fancy lists, talkin’ about “waves” and “releases.” Sounds like a bunch of hogwash to me, but I guess it helps them collectors.
My grandson, he’s got a notebook where he writes ’em all down. He circles the ones he has and puts a star next to the ones he wants. He’s real organized, that one. I tell him he should be an accountant when he grows up, but he just wants to play with his toys. Kids these days!
I seen him lookin’ at pictures online, tryin’ to figure out which ones are comin’ out next. He says there’s always new ones comin’. Mattel, that’s the company that makes ’em, they keep pumpin’ ’em out. Must be makin’ a fortune, I tell ya. These things ain’t cheap, like I said before.
I heard him talkin’ about “legendary” figures, ones from way back when. Said they’re harder to find and cost a whole lot more. He’s got a few, I think. He keeps ’em in special boxes, won’t even let me touch ’em. Says they’re valuable. I told him, back in my day, we played with sticks and rocks, and they were just as fun!
So, if you’re tryin’ to collect these things, I guess you need a checklist. You can find ’em online, I reckon. Just search for “WWE Ultimate Edition checklist” and you’ll find all sorts of stuff. But be warned, it’s a rabbit hole, you’ll be spendin’ all yer money on these little plastic fellas.
These figures, they’re real detailed, I gotta admit. They got the tattoos and the muscles and the fancy outfits. My grandson, he likes to pose ’em, make ’em fight each other. He’s got a whole wrestling ring set up in his room. Makes a mess, but he has fun, so I let him be.
I asked him the other day, “How many of these things do you need?” He just shrugged and said, “All of ’em, Grandma!” Well, good luck with that, I told him. There’s probably hundreds of ’em by now, and they keep makin’ more. It’s a never-endin’ story, I tell ya. But hey, if it makes him happy, I guess it’s alright.
So that’s the scoop on these WWE Ultimate Edition figures, as far as I can tell. They’re fancy toys for kids and grown-ups alike. They cost a pretty penny, but folks seem to love ’em. And if you wanna collect ’em, you better get yerself a checklist, ’cause there’s a whole lotta wrestlers out there.
Just remember, it’s just toys. Don’t go breakin’ the bank over ’em. There’s more important things in life, like family and good food and a roof over yer head. But if you got some extra cash and you wanna have some fun, well, go ahead and collect yer wrestlers. Just don’t blame me when yer house is full of ’em!
