My suggestion/request is for Holiday themed figures. Similar to the Hotwheels Monster Jam Halloween edition Grave Digger. Make a figure wearing special Halloween themed tights or makeup.
For Example there could be an Undertaker wearing Orange and Black tights with jack o lantern deco on the tights. Or wearing Green and Red tights to commemorate Christmas.

I'm torn on this idea. On one hand I can't stand fictional attires but on the other, some of my favorites figures were designs Warrior specifically designed for his figs. I think most hardcore collectors would hate it but I could see the occasional buyer and kids eat this up. Maybe a compromise of the ideas where the figs are made with attires worn but were holiday specific such as Warrior's Halloween Havoc or Mick Foley's obsession with Santa Clause

Huh. Not a totally bad idea to me, but I'm not sure it works in the basic or elite lines. Unlike many, I don't really have a problem with fictitious attires, but I'd hate to see Halloween figures rotting on the shelf in May, y'know?

I need a Halloween Rowan with an actual sheep's head. Or...OR...a sheep with a Rowan face.

I wonder if they've ever considered a novelty line, like Jakks did(n't do) with Bloodlines. If they did a four-figure series of modern WWE, I wonder who they'd go with. I'd pick: Cyborg Cena Killer Sheep Rowan Zombie Bray Wyatt ("I'm already dead") Demon Kane

Unlike many, I don't really have a problem with fictitious attires, but I'd hate to see Halloween figures rotting on the shelf in May, y'know? Im pretty sure they would not clog shelves. Mattel could do them as online exclusives. Like this years Gravedigger which had an exclusive Halloween paint deco and was only sold on the Monster Jam website. But even if they sold the Holiday figures at retail stores, the figures would be holiday exclusives so they would prob end up in the seasonal isle and not the regular isle. Mattel already does this with Hotwheel Cars, Hotwheels Monster Jam, and Barbie. Last I'll point out that once a holiday is over all holiday related items get marked down by retail stores. So these Holiday exclusive figures I want would not clog shelves because if they did not sell they'd get marked down on clearance. I just love what Mattel did this year with the kroger Exclusive Halloween Hotwheels, and the Monster Jam online exclusive Halloween edition grave digger. In both cases Mattel made toys with special Halloween themed paint decos which I thought looked awesome. They also have special Halloween themed Barbies and Hotwheel multi packs as target exclusives, which are in the seasonal section. The Hotwheel pack is usually cool but this year Mattel didnt do exclusive paint decos for Halloween they just threw in 4 already available cars into a pack and called it the Halloween pack. I've seen mattel do these Holiday themed toys for Christmas and easter as well in the past so I would love to see them do it as well with wwe figures. Preferably elites but I would buy the basics as well.

Mattel used to do Target Holiday Exclusives for Batman that I always thought were cool. This superman was never released unfortunately.

Pretty sure the Superman was released also. Maybe the figure, but not in that packaging. Those pictures were taken from a package designers website. I couldn't find any on Ebay, but there are plenty of the Batman figures. I've always wanted a Santa Foley, and if you want to throw in a Santa's Little Helper Candice Michelle, then so be it.

I don't know about the package design, but I am pretty sure I passed on a crystal blue Superman like that at Target's holiday section a year o so ago.

We all know it's Batman but both his packaging and his attire are entirely in the spirit of the holiday. I never saw that Batman, I wish I had it. I'd love to see Mattel do this with wwe figures.

I hate this idea... Especially because it would be... Cena w/orange arm bands for Halloween, Cena w/red & green armbands for Christmas, Cena w/pastel arm bands for Spring...

Santa Foley w/ removable hat, holiday socko, and sack would be a cool one-shot figure. I think there'd be a lot of depth in Independence Day figures.
April 20th-Rob Van Dam July 4th- Sgt. Slaughter in USA tank top, Mr. America Hulk Hogan, Macho Man USA gear from 1993, debut Mark Henry, Angle if they get his rights, American Made Hogan in White Halloween-Boogeyman Thanksgiving-Gobbledygooker Christmas DX, nah nevermind that one...
