The 44 series only shows 3 battlepacks but when I go to RS it shows the Outsiders as well, are the Outsiders actually apart of this 44 set? Or is it a miss post on the RS website. Can anybody clear this up for me?

I think they are being re released from what I hear. Kind of wish maybe we had got Syxx in nwo shirt and Hall or Nash in outsiders shirt

At either SDCC or Ringside fest I saw them displayed and asked the same thing. Apparently they're being rereleased

I don't know what assortment, but Bill said (and showed them) at Ringfest they are being rereleased. So maybe it is in BP44?

What caused for the rerelease? Mattel wanted to make sure people who weren't collecting way back in 2015 had a chance to get a fair shot at figures with that awful jeans mold and poor-fitting sunglasses accessories. |

Or bill straight up said that it was due to such great sales of the pack the first time around. They're going to continue with rereleases, get over it. |

The set sold well. Many people still want it. So... they're re-releasing it.

I didn't know this set sold well actually, seen a ton just sitting around here. Thought it done the opposite.

Makes sense it sold well just because it was the first Nash figure in years and only the second (or third?) Hall figure in the line. But examined strictly on the merits of the figures themselves, it was a pretty junk set. |

Other than the first couple Bellas and Enzo & Cass, has any BP really sold that well? I've never not seen a plentiful supply of every series.

The Shield (Reigns/Rollins) pack moved pretty well, but that was likely a mixture of it hitting stores in time for the holidays and it being the first Mattel figures for both Rollins and Reigns. |

Remember the Kmart 3 pack being impossible to find but don't think I had a problem finding the BP or Dean basic for my daughter that Xmas. |

I don't know what metric Mattel uses to judge whether or not a unit is a good seller, but I would think it's not limited to just the really hard to find ones. I think something can sell well and still be found in stores without a ton of searching.
When I think of something selling well, I envision it not being one of those figures that lingers in larger numbers in most stores six months after it first hit shelves.
So while I don't recall the Hall/Nash pack being hard to find, it is one of those releases that I almost never saw in stores a half year later.

I still see these at various Walmarts. I think one has 2014-2015 BPs marked down to $11-13.

Clearly the reason why the first battle pack of these two sold so well, was mainly for Kevin Nash. I have seen many fix ups of the BP Nash head on the RS Exclusive figure. I know this, because I did the same thing as well.
But the BP set sucks. I would have at least rather seen it re-released with them wearing the red NWO logo, instead of the white. That at least makes it a bit different enough for someone to want to buy again.

Its not the best set, but I bought it in hopes of eventually getting a street clothes Hogan to go with them.
