My wife & I got our daughter the Money In the Bank ring for Christmas. She wanted it & the commercials look cool. So I get it, build it, & I am dissapointed in it.
First off, the commercials show Jeff Hardy & Shelton Benjamin coming with it. Instead of Hardy, ya get RVD.
Second off, the ring ropes are not even connected. And when I mean connected, not like a rubber band or real ring ropes. You have to place them around the turnbuckles then tie the ends of the rope together in a knot.
Third off, this thing is small as hell. We have the Wrestlemania 2 Steel Cage & the MITB is MUCH smaller then it. The wrestlers look like giants when in the ring compared to the ringposts & ropes.
It doesn't have the ring feel that the WM2 ring does. No steps. The ropes are to close to each other. It's just a joke & a major dissapointment.
But my daughter is extremely happy about it...so I guess if she's happy, that's all that matters...right? Even if it is hard to have more then 2 wrestle in the ring like the real MITB was meant to be.

If you don't want it, send it this way. The only rings I can find around these parts are Micro Agression ring and some RAW spring ring (just like a real ring!) Really, it says so on the box.

Don't you have to tie the ropes in all of the rings?

Small? Surely not lol! My nephew got the MITB set for Xmas and it is huge! Guess size is in the eye of the beholder.
I bought him the Hell In a Cell set. It is fantastic.
My nephew really got spoiled this Christmas - although probably I spent more time playing with the Hell in a Cell ring than he did!

I have NEVER seen Toomiguci make a post that wasn't about his daughter. Seriously. No offence or anything. I'm not against people posting about their kids. But I've never seen Toomiguci's name in a thread that had anything to do with wrestling. This is closest one yet

It's obviously a slow night on the forums tonight, huh. Well I don't see you trying to liven it up here.

My nephew really got spoiled this Christmas - although probably I spent more time playing with the Hell in a Cell ring than he did! Did you use the catapult? Ofcourse! First thing I did was re-enact the Mankind v Undertaker hell in a cell match. Good though the catapult was - the trapdoor that allowed the choke slam through the cell into the ring below was far more exciting!

I remember getting the WWF monster ring when I was a young one. That thing was awesome. I think I still have it lying around somewhere.

Even if it is hard to have more then 2 wrestle in the ring like the real MITB was meant to be. Thank you very much Toomiguci. I'm sure there are at least one or two other people in the world who know exactly how you feel.

How come a mod gets to use the "Current WWE" thread, for threads relating to the current product, to make some random-ass comment about his daughters Xmas present anyway. Talk about an abuse of power...this should be in another section, or not posted at all. Well, technically it's about a current WWE product

I've posted nearly 40 times and they've all been practically ignored. Anyway, Toomiguci, did you happen to see this bad boy? I remember marking when I took one of these off of the truck at work. I made sure nobody else touched it. How come a mod gets to use the "Current WWE" thread, for threads relating to the current product, to make some random-ass comment about his daughters Xmas present anyway. Talk about an abuse of power...this should be in another section, or not posted at all. OR...because this is about a current topic regarding WWE? Yeah, you're not going to last long around here with that attitude. At least don't be incredibly wrong if you're going to whine about something.

I saw that elimination chamber set - but it was a hundred pounds! Not sure how much it was in the U S of A but I couldn't afford it however cool it looked.
On another note - why are people so annoyed about this thread? It is a relevent topic given it relates to a current WWE product. If people arent responding to your threads/comments perhaps rethink the topics that you are choosing - afterall, this topic seems to be generating a pretty generous response.

Dudes....these are kids toys. Kids!! Do you put these in your bedrooms next to the Elmo doll and Power Rangers lamps? Hey the WWE classics line are kids toys, but I'll be damed if I let some whipper snapper buy that last Rick Rude.

No, but my Canada Exclusive Hulk Hogan and early 80's Bret Hart are next to my McFarlene figure of Slash and a mini McFarlene figure of Trevor Linden. You know, just because you asked so nicely.
