Dont see why they keep redoin figures like Miz,r-truth,cm punk etc etc unless theres a Great reason its jus waste of money! Why aint they bringin out the likes of One Man Gang,Royal Rumble 97 Shawn Michaels, Davey Boy & Dynamite Kid Bulldogs, Nasty Boys,SummerSlam 92 Legion Of Doom, Etc etc & there's nothin stop them doin either An Hollywood Blondes or wcw austin & pillman!

I like the rumoured 15 and the previous suggestion for 16 (though I'd make one change to it)...
Elite 15: Yokozuna Sin Cara Mark Henry (W/ Alternate gears like Jericho and DiBiase) Rey Mysterio R-Truth Evan Bourne
16: CM PUNK (w/BitW shirt, mic, in his matching SummerSlam '11 attire) ZACK RYDER (w/ Broski shirt/headband/sunglasses in purple attire) KOFI KINGSTON (w/ new tag title, green Airboom attire) TRIPLE H (w/ mic, COO look in suit) DIESEL (FB): (w/ vest, in white tanktop Big Daddy Cool attire) CHRISTIAN (FB:) (w/ tall ladder & mesh shirt, blue tights)
==================================
And then for the next few series, I could see:
17: JOHN CENA in "Rise Above Hate" gear WADE BARRETT with jacket JACK SWAGGER with trophy JERRY LAWLER with crown and cape (flashbacks) DOINK THE CLOWN with entrance coat and bucket STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN with removable "What?" t-shirt and Smokin' Skull belt
18: KANE with removable mask THE ROCK with mic CM PUNK with ice cream t-shirt CODY RHODES with Intercontinental title (flashbacks) UNDERTAKER with removable coat and hat (purple) MANKIND with removable mask, Socko and shirt (1996 brown vest molded under the shirt)
19: CHRIS JERICHO with jacket DANIEL BRYAN with jacket DAVID OTUNGA with a Christmas present RANDY ORTON with t-shirt (flashbacks) TRIPLE H (1998 DX) with t-shirt SHAWN MICHAELS (WM14 DX) with DX t-shirt
20: JOHN CENA with whatever his post-RAH gear is JINDER MAHAL with robe CHRISTIAN with removable t-shirt and neck brace SANTINO with t-shirt (flashbacks) CACTUS JACK with barbwire bat and removable vest BRET HART with removable shades and jacket

Considering that Elite 14 has already been released and is in people's hands, won't Mattel HAVE to officially announce Elite 15 shortly so that it can be presold before it comes out in another month and a half? Series 13 & 14 hasn't hit mass retail yet. So I'm sure nothing will be shown until Toy Fair in mid Feb. Dont see why they keep redoin figures like Miz,r-truth,cm punk etc etc unless theres a Great reason its jus waste of money! Why aint they bringin out the likes of One Man Gang,Royal Rumble 97 Shawn Michaels, Davey Boy & Dynamite Kid Bulldogs, Nasty Boys,SummerSlam 92 Legion Of Doom, Etc etc & there's nothin stop them doin either An Hollywood Blondes or wcw austin & pillman! I love comments like this? Let's here the reasoning on why it's a waste of money to keep release these guys in other attires? just because YOU or I got our CM Punk/Orton/Miz/Cena/Rey/Taker etc...There's new fans everyday who want to walk into a store such as TRU/Target/WalMart/KMart and get their first. So where are they supposed to go to get them? Ebay? Second hand sales aren't helping Mattel's sales. If Mattel stopped releaseing the popular wrestlers and gave us nothing but lineups of the jobbers/curtain jerkers that many on this board constantly ask for the WWE line would be dead at mass retail within 3 series. As for the Legends I would have purchased all you listed (And many others), but what is stopping them from making them is the mass retailers refused to order anymore of the Legends/EG/DM lines. So they got canceled at retail. And if the 6 don't sell out on Matty this year I doubt we'll see them continue on Matty in 2013.

I will definitely get the set of ELite series 16 if that would be the line up.... As for elite 15 I might only get Sin Cara, Yokozuna and maybe Evan Bourne just for the belt... And will get Mark Henry only if he has a new face and body mold...

Yes I have a child. She now claims she's too old for toys, but when JL came out (And all lines I collected) I had to multiples of every female before I could display mine as she wanted them also. That said I'm not understanding your point. I think you may have forgotten something you were trying to type? Around here the figures move fairly quickly. And it's not because I am buying them (With the exception of HHH/Orton/Taker I've passed on almost all of the Elite repaints) yet they are almost always out of stock when I go to the stores. So someone is buying them. Why? Because every day there's a new fan/collector buying their first Elite or Basic version of someone. Retailers want the popular guys that the moms/casual fans know because they know that in the long run 12 Cena figures will sellout before 12 Clay figures. As for costs you are an overseas market that they are importing it in to so yes it's going to cost you more than it does for us in the US. There's nothing they can do about that. Also I would think repaints would be your friend as far as costs go as it would be easier for you to justify passing on them saving your money for things you want more.
But as far as pegwarmers go around here there's one store that has 18 E12 Randy Orton's on the pegs, but as I said in the other thread about Elites I am almost positive they are all returns from T0y W1z. I come up with that theory seeing 2 days earlier all that was there were 5 Best of figures (Rey & Cena) and 2 Papa Shango's with nothing in the stockroom. Then 2 days later there was 18 Orton's and 1 Cena on the pegs and still nothing showing as in the stockroom...and T0y W1z is only a couple miles away. Most other stores around her usually have more E12 Del Rio & Shango's on the pegs.
