The build a figure packages from Paul Bearer were not branded Then Now Forever either. There's still a chance that hopefully these come out. Really want Mean Gene and X-Pac.

the other thing i dont get is that didn't the Bearer set with Rusev, Jericho, etc sell out? like, i dont remember ever seen any walmarts in my area with them on clearance and we're talking like 20 walmarts...most only got a case or two and they were gone. what would be the reason for these figures not getting to store shelves The only ones I ever saw on clearance were the ones that asshats opened and took the BAF pieces out of.

Exactly because if you want to buy an 80s mean gene then chances are you will also want to buy 80s wrestlers and vice versa. Doesnt make sense to have a baf from the 80s in a set of 2016 wrestlers. Unfortunately the idea is that flashbacks dont sell as well as modern figures. They make BAFs flashbacks or mangagers so they dont take up space in the normal line. But then dont rot due to kids not wanting guys they havent seen or heard of. This way adults can get old characters by paying a bit more, which most can afford compared to a kid who just wants a Cesaro or Seth figure. People would still complain if they "had to buy another Undertaker or Kane basic just to build Paul Bearer." Sure theres ways they could make it more interesting, but would it make or save them money? When Hogan is eventually resigned, TNF Elite 3-Pack; Huckster, Nacho Man, & Skeem Gene. No adult collector would be sad about that!

This set should be made up of all guys he actually interviewed ... just off the top of my head; "El Dandy" era Bret Hart, Purple 90s WCW Flair, "Crooked Beard" era Randy Savage, and green tights Iron Sheik. I'm all for a purple tights Flair (preferably with a new bowl cut head sculpt).

Up to $107 with $44 shipping to the U.S.? Uh, no, I think I'll pass.
Who the hell is bidding on this, Mean Gene himself? I better call his hotline and find out...

Honest question: why post the boxes but not the actual figure people want to see?

It's no coincidence that the seller on eBay is called Joker and the creator of this thread is also called joker. Both appear to be photographed on a red felt of some sort too. Not sure what the point of dragging this on is if that's the case. Maybe he bought two of each?

It's just how he makes out he can't photograph Mean Gene built because he's on holiday but he managed to list it on ebay
