I think the exclusives would be too pricey to make for retail. And I don't see RS making money by offering Brooklyn Brawler exclusives. They need to make a name that will sell. None of the exclusives so far have been Defining Moments-style figures. They've all been pretty standard elite figures, with standard elite level of detail and accessories. In some cases (like Rey), even less. I'm cool with them just being standard elites, the higher price point is because of the shorter run. And they don't want to flood the elite line with the same legends figures, so the exclusives got us an extra Bret/Austin/Macho we might not have gotten otherwise. If they did continue to make them, I'd like to see: A two-pack: Debut Mankind (elite style) and Paul Bearer (basic style) with urn. Probably would be way too expensive to be worth it though. SummerSlam 1995 Shawn Michaels elite. With entrance gear if they can do it for the price, or a ladder if not.

I think HBK seems likely to get an Exclusive relatively soon, as he seems to fit the mold of the Macho, Bret, Austin route. Possibly the IYH DX attire with both belts. That era Shawn would allow them to re-use that head scan with an attire that people would spend money on imo. I'd like something unique though like a WM14 figure with accurate hair, KOTR 97 attire, or IY7 with entrance gear. I'd take the Mankind 2-pack for sure but I'm not sure Ringside will take the risk on a 2-pack. I wanted the debut Mankind over the one we got so I'll definitely pick that or a Cactus Jack up if Ringside goes that route.

What I don't want is repaints of the same people. If we're getting exclusives.. I want to get people that we don't have yet.
Magnum TA comes to mind, by the way.....

Doesn't Ringside pick their exclusives? I'd be EXTREMELY surprised if they didn't pick HBK for their next one.

I have yet to buy an exclusive. I was going to buy the Stone Cold one but its too pricey now. But theres no doubt I'd drop 30 bucks on:
Any mid 90s HBK Purple Taker X-pac
