I know everybody wants them, and maybe I missed it, but why 'o why has The Hart Foundation not been produced? When I say Hart Foundation, I'm referring to the original two, Bret Hart and Jim Neidhart. They were two time tag team champions and ended Demolitions reign. They were both terrific heals and popular fan favorites. I mean, we got the Rockers and the Bushwhackers and I know they're way better than those guys.
Anytime Jakks made a set, they seemed to fly off the shelves IMO. The LJN set is among the most valuable, if not the most valuable figures in that collection. Does Jim Neidhart not have a legends deal? Is that it? If so, I don't understand why something couldn't be negotiated with him.
Sorry for the rant, but just wondering why???

I equate Neidhart to Marty Jannetty or Crush. Both of which sold like garbage so I assume mattel won't release a Neidhart simply because there is a thousand guys who would sell better than "Brets tag partner"

Why not a Battle Pack then?

Don't get me wrong, I would buy it but I just assume anvil isn't worth a spot in the elite line in their eyes

No need for a petition. It isn't about who should be made, but who can be. Bill from MDT has said that he wants to do the Anvil, and as soon as he can get the OK I'm sure we'll get him.

Ok cool. It's comforting to know that Mattel aims to do them. Thanks RV f'n D

I want Hart Foundation in the Elite line at some point. Nasty Boys, Harlem Heat, Steiner Bros, Hardy Boys and Dudley's rounding out my tag wants.

Would rather have '97 Anvil to go w/ the Bret and Bulldog we already have.

Bill knows we want it, I'm sure if and when he can they will get it to us.

Don't get me wrong, I would buy it but I just assume anvil isn't worth a spot in the elite line in their eyes We got the rest of the hart foundation, bret, bulldog and pillman - the only reason we didn't get Jim was because he got busted on burglary and drug charges. Plus his penchant for drugging women and anally raping them isn't pg friendly. But it we can have 4 elite brets why can't we have an anvil? Not having anvil is a crime. Who cares how jakks guys sold - Mattlel's figs are 10 x better anyways. Plus jakks put out SO many figs how could everyone buy every fig?

That's an interesting theory... Neidhart's personal life may be the reason that Bill at Mattel hasn't been given a green light? Does anyone have more info to back that up?

For a long time Razor Ramon's past is what kept him from being made, and it is the reason we've been told no on Chyna. So I assume that the theory of his personal life is pretty solid.

Both of which sold like garbage so I assume mattel won't release a Neidhart simply because there is a thousand guys who would sell better than "Brets tag partner" I half agree with you and half way dont. Crush actually sold pretty well. Marty not selling wasnt really his fault it was the fact it was a damn near $40 package for him. It was simply too pricy. A Marty in singles run with one of his vibrant attires and a white strapped IC Belt would probably do fairly ok. As for Anvil, I agree a singles run of Anvil probably wouldnt do great but if you released a Hart Foundation Tag Team Bret in the same series at Hart Foundation Tag Team Anvil...Then you'd probably be able to move it.

The Hart Foundation is one of my top tag team wants. As soon as Mattel gets the green light I'm sure we'll get them. Jim was on a few episodes of Total Divas so he's on good terms with WWE.

To me a '97 HF Anvil is crucial to go with the others. For the much simpler earlier HF attires I'd be cool with a BP w/Bret and some dull(painted) classic tag belts.

The old or new Foundation is fine with me.
If they make the new one, i'd be happy with it. As long as Owen is made....(sadly, that will probably never happen)
I sign this too.
