Since we are getting a 2 in 1 Andre The Giant elite, I figure why not use this concept for other future figures. The first one that came to mind was Mr Perfect Curt Hennig. I would love it if we got a Mr Perfect wearing that black and orange track suit he wore while managing Ric Flair in 92. Now when you remove the track suit, have him in a back singlet like during his NWO days. This figure could also come with an NWO tank top like the elite figure we got of The Giant. This would allow Mattel to produce a Mr Perfect in elite form with a corrected scale while capturing two looks from his career. Here is some reference pics for fun:

I'd be fine with just nwo henning in the 2nd pic with an nwo sleeveless cloth shirt. I don't want a 2000s version of him with an early 90s scan.

I'd prefer to see him in his black suit with perfect sequins on the jacket if he were to come clothed though. He would need to be bulkier too. He put on a lot more mass between that time.

Nah, if there was any suit to put on him, I'd prefer it to be that black one with the Mr Perfect logo on the back.

Eh, I'd rather the next 2-in-1 figure to be a Kane with a suit over his singlet.

I think cloth suits on figures (like some want for Kane) make figs look like little boys wearing their daddys' suits. I've never seen it executed well at the $20 price point. I've seen done well on 12-inch figures that cost about as much as an entire elite set, but for us I think it's an unrealistic wish.
As for a track outfit, I think that could work. Those can look a little baggy.

Once they make an nWo Hennig, I don't think I'll be buying another version of him. The Mr. Perfect that we've got, and nWo Curt Hennig would be all I need.

I don't like the legends mr perfect much. I really want a better wwf figure of him and a wcw figure. I would love an executive assistant mr perfect but I don't think we will ever get one.

Blasphemy!!! It's executive CONSULTANT you ham and egger! He never assisted Flair with anything, he consulted him and yes there is a big difference, and no I'm not making a mountain out of a molehill. No I'm not too emotionally invested in childhood WWF memories, and I'm perfectly calm, calmer than you are.

It's a cool idea but that's probably too much in the way of soft goods. I agree too, that I would rather have Perfect in the black suit. I want a Mr. Perfect in orange via the HOF line and then a black and white version of Curt in the Basic line circa 97.
I mean if they put any Perfect out I'm going to buy it, but I do want to see the orange sooner rather than later, personally.

I really think that this idea has legs, the Two-in-One Andre is probably one of my top 3 figures in my collection (53 figures and growing) and I would love to see more of this "definitive" elite versions of characters.

I know I'll catch hell for this, but the Legends Hennig suits me just fine.
