I might get flamed for this, but I have to know... What's the huge demand over the so-called "Hart Tribute" attire? It'd be one thing if, on an episode of Raw, he wore a singlet and tights just like Bret. However, all it was was his usual gear in pink and black, only vaguely resembling Bret's design. And unless I missed something, it wasn't really acknowledged that it was a Bret homage. I mean, it was obvious when he emulated Savage's gear, but in this case, I really don't think a pink and black Punk is figure worthy. It was 100% a throwback to Bret Hart's attires.

I would only buy Punk if he was in Tribute Hart attire

I'd definitely get it, but I guess we've pretty much had it in elite 16.

I would love for them to do one of these but have the WWE Championship be the shiny type and have high detail. I wanna see that button missing on the belt that comes with this figure... ;D

If the Elite 20 CM Punk does not come with the Hart tribute attire, then a TRU elite exclusive or a RSC exclusive celebrating his year long title reign would be absolutely fantastic. Have Punk come with the title & package him holding the Title above his head. Really hope Mattel celebrates Punk's year long title reign with an excellent figure

The only thing that I would want Mattel to change on this figure would be the head scan. The head scan I would like Mattel to put on the Hart tribute Punk is the Basic 24 head scan. The reason is cause they can repaint the beard & give him the updated look.

I'm thinking we will get a TRU Exclusive BITW Punk (kind of along the lines of 20-0 Taker), once his WWE Championship streak ends. Something to commemorate it and run a similar promo. What's everyone's thoughts on something like that? So you're thinking it's gonna end sometime soon? He's the "Best in the World" for a reason. I think he's gonna have it for a while. Just an opinion.

Agree 100% how cool would it be for Punk's WWE Title reign to continue past the Rumble. Punk's reign has made the WWE title relevant again & that should not be wasted on a short title reign by the Rock. What exactly does the Rock or the WWE have to gain with a short title run by the Rock. The Rock does not need the WWE Title. Whoever ends Punk title reign should be a young upcoming star who is close to becoming a mega star, not the Rock. I think the perfect scenario at the Rumble is to have Lesnar cost Rocky the title. You have Brad Maddox interfere as a ref only to get a rock bottom, then the shield & have Rock get rid of all three & finally when that fails you have Lesnar cost Rocky the match. That would set up Rock vs Lesnar. At Mania Punk can go up against Austin for the Title.

But even though I am a Rock fan and hope he beats punk, I would like to see the figure; whenever it does happen.

I hope you are right & I would be very surprised if Mattel doesn't come out with a figure celebrating Punk's year long title reign. Fact is we don't know when or if we will ever see a title reign this long again. Collectors simply love Punk, he has been the main draw at Ringside Fest the last two years. His figures are super hard to find & Mattel always goes out of their way to make each and every figure of his unique. So I really hope we get a Punk celebrating his huge accomplishment.
