Hogan WILL be a Mattel figure at some point...but it won't be until after he leaves TNA... as far as screwing up Savage,that won't happen,either.... Hogan had a lot of influence over Jakks not aquiring Savage's rights,and ,quite frankly,Jakks was a smaller company,and ould not afford to piss Hogan off,considering his brand name... According to what sources? I know Hogan has been a horse's ass, but this seems petty even for him. I second this. During the CS line there were always rumors or Hogan's influence or demands to not have Savage signed with Jakks. I for one would like a concrete, reliable source. I would say a Hogan Legends figure is inevitable. Mattel is signed on to produce WWE figures for 5 years (?), most likely longer if they decide to resign. |

They have a video preview of this game on Xbox Live.. It is a remake of the old wwf game that was like mortal kombat(don't remember the name of the game, it had the hbk heartbreak hotel and the bret hart hart dropper and all that stuff from the early 90's) and in the new game there is no video of hogan (plenty of video of several others even a few seconds of macho man here and there) if hogan was in the game then I would think he would be in this preview?  ? ... And someone else mentioned about the hogan 20 year deal with vince (to use hulkamania for merchandise), well that was shown on hogan knows best and hogan said he could use the money but it was never verified if the deal went thru or not and if it would have there would have been a ton of hogan stuff before he signed with TNA so the deal probably never happened? ? |

Hogan and Bischoff's deals with TNA expire at the end of this year, so we may very well see Hogan in Mattel form within a year or so. From what I understand, Hogan & Bischoff have brought nothing to the table for TNA since the initial curiosity value, as ratings have been the same or even less, plus they have huge salaries, so it is not expected that TNA will re-sign these two.

Hogan never kept a Jakks Savage from being made. Hogan doesn't hate Savage. That's a BS rumor that hold no water whatsoever. Savage doesn't like Hogan, but Hogan and Savage aren't stopping having action figures made of the other guy. That's just nonsense. On the Hogan game thing, Hulk had already signed with THQ for the WWE game before he signed with TNA. When Hogan signed with TNA, they didn't have a game deal anymore (Because Midway folded) and Hulk's previous WWE game deal was still workable ( although they took Hulk and all his moves out of the latest Smackdown) but when Hulk signed with TNA, they already had a deal with Jakks and he quickly signed with Jakks for toys. So no Mattel Hulk. WWE and THQ know that they can't make a "Legends of WWE" game without Hogan, so they agreed to let THQ use his rights for this game because they know this game would be dead to rights without the biggest star of the 80's in it. They took all 3 moves out?! Zing! |

if anyone hates hogan it's Shiek ;D but yeah I hope that's the case. Nash Hall and Pac are rumored to be at the HOF so I hope for a razor ramon, Diesel, 1-2-3 Kid, or NWO figs of them  |
