I can't wait for a Edge in camp and Rated R Belt and I wouldn't mind a short hair Edge if they did it like Bruno with the HOF plaque or something like that.

How was the Mankind TRU figure not addressed throughout the entire weekend? I'm going to assume that since it's a TRU Exclusive, TRU 'controls' that information. I bet Mattel has to get permission to show their Exclusives at these shows. It may sound silly, but TRU 'owns' those figures(and information about them) because TRU contracts Mattel to do them for their exclusive distribution. I don't know this 100%, but I am aware on similar deals in other industries.

He doesn't handle distribution or the promotions. What would you have asked Bill about the Mankind that isn't already known?

That will be great if we actually got Doink in early 2015 even thought that seems like a eternity. I really hope they get to Goldust again as well in the elite line or exclusive.
Im confused about the Mankind mailaway as well. Is Mattel putting it off until next year to coincide with the special 30 years of Mania set with HBK and Hart or has it been scrapped.

It was also @ NYCC

RSC exclusives as of late........have been revolving around getting some exclusive belt.
Rated R championship seems like a no brainer. But on the other hand, the e13 Edge Flashback peg warmed. So maybe the demand isn't there?
i didn't watch wrestling when Edge had that belt. What attire would go w/ an Edge from that time period?

RingsideC2 So much appreciation for the fact that you asked specific questions and did not even touch questions about elite scale rings or a legends line. Thank you RSC and thank you MattelDesignTeam!

Big John Studd is one of my biggest wants. Sucks to hear that they won't be making him for a long time if at all. same here. VERY BUMMED to hear that. one of the main characters from the 80's. almost makes me want to give up on collecting them. whats the point if we cant get a full line of legends and huge parts like Studd, Flair, Razor are missing? thats like a he-man line with no Man-at-arms, Beast man & Skelator!

Excited that Edge will be getting a couple more figures. He's had some awesome attires through the years. Might be time to cash in on that Classic Exclusive with the Rated R belt if Mattel is gonna end up releasing one.
Too bad we won't get Goldust until after he's probably released again. Bust since they already had most of 2013 planned, I understand why.
Could not possibly care any LESS about getting a Bill Demott figure. He is really not that good and one of my least favorite "superstars" of all time. but whatever, I'm sure some people would be happy.
Not surprised at no Flair, no Goldberg, no Hall, same ol stuff.
I don't understand how Mattel could sign a guy to a deal or have the rights to a guy, and not really care about making them. I mean it's not like people won't buy them. Every Flashback sells. They will make money on it.

Thank you. Those 30 second videos with 4 seconds of answer were a joke.

So it took almost a year & half for Flashback Edge to clear shelves and now they wanna make more?
Can Mattel just sell the Elite sculpts to JAKKS and let them release Legends/Flashbacks so we can have guys from Pre-1999.

i didn't watch wrestling when Edge had that belt. What attire would go w/ an Edge from that time period? Pretty much just: Or some of his black/red outfits like the figure that came in the 2010 belt pack w/Cena. (That last one was the start of that title reign, he changed it to the custom belt about a month later) I'd hope they wouldn't just do another Edge in black/red. But they haven't always matched accessories to figure eras. Defining Moments Bret Hart figure had a WWE title when he wasn't WWE champion at the event the figure was based on. Same with DM Cena and the US title. Bruno with the Hall of Fame podium. Elite 4 Kane with the chains etc. So they could just do any era Edge and include the Rated R title really.

Too bad we won't get Goldust until after he's probably released again. You never know. He might not screw up this time. Yeah, I doubt we'll ever see a Hugh Morrus figure come out. Seems like the kind of guy who'd maybe make it into Series 36 of a "Best of WCW" line. Big John Studd is just a fat guy in white tights. No cool accessory, doesn't look cool, and was irrelevant even by the Hasbro era. Maybe he'd be alright a 0.5 per case basic, but there's always going to be a huge list of higher priorities above him for an elite.
