Mattel, are you serious? A $250 Wrestling Ring?

 With Diesel as an incentive? With Doink being the first unlockable tier? Extra ring skirts being the second tier? 

Thank you, Mr. Macky... You just hear him, Mattel... drugs are bad, mmkay... and it's obvious that copious amounts of drugs were consumed when y'all thought this was a great idea. 
Your Rings currently sell at $40 and that's counting the ones with gimmicks. And, I remember the fancy schmancy Raw Ring that came with an Elite Goldberg that was roughly $80 at KMart in Puerto Rico, so probably a lot cheaper (at Target) in mainland US. 

But $250!? 

That's ridiculous! Also, what's the point of having an online Mattel shop where you can buy nothing?


So you have the little entrance thing with light effects... that thing is adding $170 to an already overpriced ring with Diesel? 
Wow Ring Skirts as an incentive? 
That's kinda pathetic... I get tossing Doink as an incentive. I have a feeling that this one won't make it...
The worst part of it is that this one will be "exclusive" and then Mattel will release retail versions of this ring where the only different thing will be the colors and skirts.

You know what would be worth $250?
A Smackdown ring to scale with the entrance ramp and the early 2000s Fist display...
