Mattel recently said newer signed guys like X-Pac are on hold because they want to get guys out who are still signed with Mattel. I assume this means guys like Warrior, Bret Hart(unless he has a Legends deal), Mr. Perfect etc. Who do YOU want to see? Personally I'm hoping for a Black top and pink tights Bret Hart figure, LOD in Red, Mr. Perfect in a smaller scale, Vader in his Vader Time gear, late 90's Terry Funk and even British Bulldog with dreads. What about you? I'm shocked most of these figures haven't been released and I really hope that some of, if not most of these are guys Mattel is talking about.

More Bret's and HBKs. And yeah a Hollywood Rock would be nice. Maybe finally that jean shorts what shirt Austin.
And we NEED the classic tag titles to be rereleased in the main line. It's vital to any collection and the only way they've been released so far is pathetic . My last hope is billy gunn.

idk. They said they're going to try and fill the 2014 Flashback spots with legends who's contracts are expiring.
But Rikishi, Billy Gunn, Road Dogg & Lex Luger are new contracts. I doubt Bret Harts contract is ending. Maybe Warriors. But thats 6 Flashbacks right there. And they only do about 9 or 10 in the regular elite line.
So that leaves about 3-4 spots. Maybe Doinks contract is expiring? But maybe WWE owns the character?.
I doubt they would waste the last few spots on ppl they've already done. I imagine its a select few that they haven't gotten to yet.....that they believe would sell at retail.
KoKo B Ware?

Eddie Guerrero with Scarface shirt and actual gold boots
"Rock Concert" Rock with guitar, stool, and vest... I'd even take a plastic vest.

What about you? I'm shocked most of these figures haven't been released and I really hope that some of, if not most of these are guys Mattel is talking about. Well yeah I agree with them to a point especially if the contracts are running out. I'd want all these updated with new heads where needed as we have seen an increase in head size since most of these were done in the past. Even Martel who I thought was the perfect figure has a smallish head. Anyway: Early 90s Piper - Slightly bigger body, new head. Sgt Slaughter Camo - Bigger head Rick Rude - Long hair version, bigger head M$M - New bigger head, shiny boots British Bulldog - Dreads version and possibly Allied powers to go with Lex...? Bret - Early tag Bret and anogther iconic Bret with new head. O.M.G Magnum T.A Rick Martel LOD - Red and Black. New heads Snuka - Barefoot, new head Macho Man - Neon Cowboy HBK - early singles and others Mr Perfect - start again. Bigger body and smaller in scale Marty Jennety - Singles Jerry Lawler - feud with Bret look Mick Foley - Dude Love DDP - In jeans taped ribs new head The Rock - Corporation Rock Goldust - Mid 90s thicker body Eddie Guerrero - Latino head longish hair Big Bossman - Swat late 90s JBL - Even just a basic with new bigger better head for swaps Maybe they should pack a Flashback in every basic set! It would give are Legends new bigger headsculpts and would probably help the line to have less repaints and more Variety... Edit: it actually makes me sad that contracts could be coming to a end and we could have missed out on a definitive version of that Legend or Mattel done to perfection version. MDT are great but sadly they don't always get it right  |

None I would like to see more first time in line 80's guys get the spots rather than rereleases. I completely agree. There are a some more big names from the 80's who I really would love to see made by Mattell. I been watching some of the of WWF earliest pay per views recently and these guys listed below were big names in the business at the time. My top 10 Junkyard Dog Jim the Anvil Niedhart Big John Studd Brutus the Barber Beefcake Greg the Hammer Valentine Koko B.Ware Haku Warlord Barbarian Earthquake It would be nice to see a few a these guys have their first figure made by Mattel before we see the 12th Macho Man or 10th Ultimate Warrior. But I think Mattel is afraid that they won't sell well. I feel that if they make one to put in every other case like Honky Tonk and Kevin Nash they'll be just fine and won't warm the shelves. |

Any and all Rocks. From Rocky Maivia to Hollywood Rock, id buy every one.
Jean shorts Austin. I mean, its already been made. I dont understand why hes not on my shelf right now...
Chainsaw Charlie or just Attitude Era Funk. To go with Cactus of course.
Corporate Bossman. Always liked the SWAT attire better.
Dude Love. Of course we gotta have the hippest cat in town daddio, owwww have mercy!
Early Goldust. Gold and silver or early gold and black.
Bret Hart from WM13. Pink top black bottom. Would be able to make my WM13 display more accurate.
Camo Sgt Slaughter. Cuz, well, duh.
Red LOD. Duh again.
Grey glove Undertaker, 98 Undertaker, and ABA Undertaker.
Now i seriously doubt the contracts for guys like Rock, Austin, Foley, or esp Taker are in any jeopardy of expiring, but id like to see them none the less.

Definitely another Andre, trunks and afro style
Rick Rude, with an actual decent outfit, and they can add the puff ball mullet
Perfect, a little shorter, maybe reverse colors or yellow with black
Bulldog with braids and white tights, AND British Bulldog tag team to hopefully go with a Dynamite
LOD, self explanatory
Bam Bam Bigelow with either the orange flames with blue trim or yellow flames with red trim
Snuka, proper
Sarge, proper, or Iraqi....but we should probably start with proper cammo
Akeem as One Man Gang
Duggan with black trunks, white pads and boots, a little taller
George Steele that doesn't look like someone spat on it and rolled it in cigarette ash
