Weve already seen kane, shango, edge, boosman and KING BOOKAH! Also, at the RF Q&A Session, Yokozuna prototype was shown. And in the recent Q&A session mattel said that Ultimate Warrior will have another fig as an elite flashback in 2012. They also said theres a good chance for a NWO style macho man as an elite flashback!

I thought I remember reading somewhere that they also confirmed that Christian would have a Flashback figure to kind of go with the Edge Flashback - if it wasn't this Q&A it was at one of the monthly Q&As around the web.

I think we will be getting a Christian and Stone Cold in shorts.
I'm sure they will release another Rock sooner or later with a "Just Bring It' shirt.

Also, this Q&A said that the Diesel figure will be a Flashback too.

While not confirmed they did say that they would be doing a running change with Bret Hart's glasses. I don't think they will do them in time for the Ringside Exclusive so I wouldn't be surprised if we get a Bret Hart Flashback figure. Hopefully in his classic black top and pink pants attire.

who do you guys think will be the 2nd Flashback in Elite15 along with Yoko..?? ( hoping there is 2, 1 is not enuff, especially w/ no heritage) i hope we get a Christian in E15 to go along with the Edge Flashback.. then in Elite 16 i really want a Royal Rumble 91 Ultimate Warrior soo badd with a winged eagle on either white, blue, purple strap then a Kevin Nash Flashback as Diesel with Silver Big Daddy Cool singlet black pants, vest, maybe mattel could make a removable vest so we could get a diesel and an nWo version...?? hmm? what you guys think about that..?? what material? i hope Mattel hears our demands and we get a Flashback of HBK circa 97, Undertaker 97 or 94, HHH dx 98 summerslam, yoko is def E15, nash, christian, warrior, nWo Macho Man will be coming.. Hmm lets see when ! i think Warrior is about to jump in popularity Big Time.. i saw that promo for his "reality" intense workout/ training show & bottom line is netime WARRIOR is near a camera its fun.. i know many of u hate him due but i loved him... loved him for what he was.. i didnt expect to see a bryan danieslon vs low-ki match from him!!.. i hope vince & him can work out something so he can have his much deserved spot in the hall of fame.. i really hope to see flashbacks of Honky Tonk Man & Brutus The Barber Beefcake when it comes to legends not currently wrestling or active w/ the E.. those 2 more than ne1 else.. along with taker, hbk, hhh, macho & warrior & bret and one day prob far away : Hulk&Flair!! ( i still bet there is a flair eg proto out there somewhere..Hmm) oh yea i 4got about 1 guy i wanna see badly.... The Million Dollar Man Ted Dibiase!! his EG just doesnt cut it for me, hoping for green suit or silver&purple.. shiny Million Dollar Belt and some cash to stuff in Jake Roberts Mouth!!!... and a jakked Virgil too.. him & brutus & honky are soo iconic in my childhood WWF memories.. i feel mattel HAS to make them in 2012 if not , then how could they not be in a legends poll over crap like savio freakin vega... oh bro.. n 1 agree w/ me...? but yea brothers, flashbacks:

LOD would be great as Flashbacks. If The Rockers don't sell well(which appears to be the case) I see no reason why Mattel can't release LOD as Flashbacks. Then again Mattel has a lot of weird reasons for not releasing the people who seem to be a no brainer like HBK & Taker.

They said they are going to do Kevin Nash, I dont think they specifically said that it would be Diesel. I hope it is though with Outsider Red outfit a close second. They also said they were going to do Mic Foley but that he hadnt officially signed with WWE yet. I hope its either Mankind or Cactus Jack. Im also hoping we will get Doink as well. Id like to see Honky Tonk Man and brutus beefcake as well in future assortments.

They should come in either red or blue, and have their shoulderpads and each come with a classic tag team belt. Then agian so would a hunter hearst helmsley with robe, ic title and european title.................

They just released the figs Because from what I've heard from other members on here, unless something sells out within days on Mattycollector.com it is considered a fail. It's been nearly 3 weeks and they have yet to sell out.

So far I think the upcoming ones (aside from E13/E14) are Yokozuna (E15), Christian, Diesel, nWo Savage, and Ultimate Warrior. They've had a really positive response to the nWo Savage question a few times now, so that seems very likely for 2012. We'll probably also get a Bret Hart and then something similar to the unreleased Legends 7 Austin.

I'm hoping for Doink the Clown, I had asked them about the possibility and they said they love Doink and are looking for an excuse to do him, and so if he doesnt make it into flashbacks then he could be on the legends poll again.

I dont think Rockers are a failure cause they have not sold out in a day. Maybe mattycollector site would consider them a failure but I dont think Mattel does. Everyone and there mom bought at least 1 set of these things, and we gotta remember that WWE is not as popular too everyone as Ghostbusters, MOTU and Barbie are. Not saying they were a complete success either but im sure they did well. Im sure there are still ppl out there that are debating on getting them or wanting them yet. They are prob right where they need too be imo.
Also, where is everyone getting this crazy assumption that Yoko is in Elite 15? lol I did see the proto at RSF, but i have not heard nor seen any confirmation of him being in Elite 15 yet. I mean, i hope he is too, i just wanna see the proof that he is going too for sure be in Elite 15 before we go getting our hopes up, then turning around blaming Mattel because they didnt go by our hear say ya know

Mattel would then have to release those figures either as Legends or Flashbacks but I have a feeling after this year it'll be all Flashbacks and no Legends. I feel like the line won't do well with Mattycollector but I guess we'll see. One of the interviews with Mattel said that "Yokozuna is in the Elite set after the one with Booker T".

Off topic, but since the announcement that there would be no more Legends figures at retail, we have gotten The Rockers, Papa Shango, Classic Kane, Brood Edge, and Bret "The Hitman" Hart. In Basics, we have gotten a Macho Man Randy Savage, The Rock from '01, 80's Bret Hart, and 90's HBK. In a month's time, we will have Andre, Booker T, Big Bossman, basic Warrior, basic Eddie, and maybe even yet another Elite Bret Hart (RSE). I am not really missing the Legends too much at all, because they are definitely there. I feel like Mattel is really trying to throw us as many bones as they can, and I appreciate the efforts.

Debut Mankind, Brutus Beefcake, and Warlord and Barbarian in singles attire would be great. I doubt that we will see Warlord and Barbarian at retail though. Maybe internet exclusives?
