re-releasing Andre in e29.......redoing LOD in e30.....redoing Vader in e31......its looking like MDT plans on knocking out some reduxes of the legends figs. e32 Long hair Rude e33 Camo Sgt Slaughter e34 Barefoot, trunks Snuka e35 ECW Terry Funk that would be perfect Im ok with it as long as thats not the only flashbacks in the set(s)...That would pretty much be all of 2015 and we'd have no new guys RSC will have e32 & 33 this year RSC had elite 31 listed for late August. They aint going 5 months without at least 2 more sets

The late Dec rush before christmas on RSC but not hit retail until Jan-Feb like Elite 19 did. so did i. As i assumed, with elite 30 scheduled for mid August......that would put elite 31 coming out right around Ringside Fest. WHich it seems we always get something a week before or right after RSF. Putting e32 right before christmas but apparently e31 will come out 2 weeks after 30. Leaving a huge gap. Then i remembered we got 7 sets last year (instead of the usual 6). Elite 20 came instock Jan 11th 2013....and elite 26 was instock December 3rd 2013. So i'm thinking e32 late Oct-early Nov......and e33 right before Christmas

Nope he was with wwf/wwe til about October Must have blocked it out of my memory lol. They severely misused Vader after that. I wasn't a WCW fan but it seems like he would've been better off there after '97. They wanted to push him again, but he legit was out of shape. The plan was for him to go away after No Way Out and lose weight and get in shape and come back and be a monster again, but he came back heavier....so he was punished and eventually released.

Hopefully they'll do us a solid and give us Vader time with the Perfect sylt triangle thing. And hopefully they'll do us another solid and mix and match time periods and give is the Mastadon helmet. I really can't think of any other accessory that they could do for him. I'm not sure who owns rights or anything of that nature on that helmet piece, but damn, it'd be toooo sweeeeet! If the Andre fig is any indication, MDT is open to mixing time periods. So '96-'97 Vader with the WCW Mastadon helmet as an accessory isn't too far fetched brother. I'll buy two! One thing I'm wondering.... you guys think they'll have a new scan with molded mask? I'm not entirely against the idea since they basically made him keep it on all the time during his WWF run, and he only wore the red mask. I only remember him without the mask 1 time during his WWF run, "In Your House: Final Four" where Undertaker kicked a steel chair in his face and busted him from ear to ear. If anyone hasn't seen the match, you should! February 1997 on WWE Network. Bret Hart vs. Undertaker vs. Vader vs. Stone Cold. That match is just ass kicking. I remember the brawl haha I don't remember him being maskless unless it was during the match .

He unmasked later in the match, not too long before the end. Think I'll go rewatch on the Network

Good god people. We are LUCKY to be getting two flashbacks in this set. Why would Kane be a flashback. Let's use common sense here. Rock is a FB? Well, Rock hasn't been on TV in over a year, so I'm not sure how it could be current. (Yeah, I know he was at Wrestlemania, but so were a number of other legends that I wouldn't expect to get a "current" figure).

I didn't know if they were going to make a FB Rock that really has no place in the set due to the Exclusive. I'm not buying the figure anyway but I'm glad it's not similar to the Exclusive.

Yeah, that would be pretty stupid. Rock is an easy skip for me whatever it is.

I really hope it isn't Vader. We already have a perfect Vader! Another figure I won't be buying. Losing interest fast. What about the legends we actually want re-released? Bulldog, Snuka, SGT Slaughter.... give me a break. Last figs I bought were TRU Hitman and E26 Warrior (I'll buy Crush and Flair) But at this rate I'm only getting 2 -3 figs every 6 months.
RODDY PIPER should have multiple Figs by now.

Bulldog, Snuka, SGT Slaughter.... I agree. I don't recall a Vader repaint or new release being mentioned anywhere. I don't even see why it's necessary. Any look they'd give him would be close to what we've already seen unless they're going to give him a bigger body, which I would like. But I'm perfectly content with the Vader we already have. I think most people (who have it at least) feel the same way.

I find it amusing that someone would say they're passing on the first flair but we should have multiple pipers by now. Flair is definitely the bigger name of the two, and I agree a different piper would be nice but not over making one of if not the greatest wrestler of all time.
