What's the rest of BP 48? I forget. American Alpha Heath Slater and Rhyno Hype Bros
It's a super good set if you ask me. This is the only Battle Pack series that I'm planning on getting everyone in.

Bodyguard or Dudes era would be nice, but it could be Wrestlemania 11 as well.

If it's anything like HBKs last battle pack, it'll be diesel in in elite 16 attire and HBK in hell in a cell 97 attire again.

I hope it's the Ringside face with new flowing hair. No mullet. No grumpy face. Just a cocky smirk with his longer hair.

But will HBK have knee pads? And will people continue to think he wore them underneath his tights? lol

Wonder if it will be HOF mullet Diesel and 92 Michaels, hoping? Or 95 mullet Michaels and Elite 16 Diesel? Or mixture of both? What do y'all think? hope they look something like this: View AttachmentMinus their arms being the same size and Shawn being bigger than Diesel hopefully.

I know yeah I'm just hoping American alpha have better face scans and in updated attire what they have wore on smackdown live Statistically, the odds are strong that this is just a re-release of the first Battle Pack. Three of those sets have to be new, so I'm guessing they are just filler for variety.

HBK preference: HBK also wore the above attire at RR '94. The recent Funko HBK (vs. Hacksaw, vs. Max Moon, etc.) and/or Survivor Series 1992 (blank white spots w/no stripes) HBK attires have always been on my Mattel wish list as well, but preferably done as elites (w/RSC Exclusive sculpt), whereas the black with white & red striped spots attire above sans entrance gear seems sensible as a basic/core figure. As for Nash, below is my ideal attire for BP 48 Diesel (again probably preferred as an Elite, but Matty practically has already done a similar one to that, minus a few details of course): Personally, I don't own RR '95 HBK. Hence, even the above attire for his BP 48 figure, which appears to be essentially said look, is fine IMHO. I don't feel these two were necessarily a true tag team (i.e. Demolition, Road Warriors/L.O.D., et al), thus I also don't think they need to match nor come color coordinated. Granted, I suppose there could be a niche appeal, so to speak, as opposed to iconic ring gears that probably stand out in many minds' memories when reminiscing & remembering both wrestlers. However, it would be nice to be able to display in various ways, rather than merely together. Besides "2 Sweet" attires, HOF 5 Diesel (not E 16 Glenn "Diesel Imposter" Jacobs) sculpt & proper one for that era of HBK as well (not EG/Walgreens Exclusive/WM 33) need to be a focal point for BP 48. Hair color darkness/shade is probably more subjective, as it pertains especially to Diesel. Now, as for other cool ring gear options: {Wanted to throw this HBK attire (from RR '94) in again for emphasis!} {"Big Daddy Cool" nuance; HBK entrance gear not happening obviously, so disregard that part} {Diesel's top palette a bit different here for once} I'm sure there are plenty more, but let's hope Mattel isn't too obscure in their decisions & covers some iconic looks while paying attention to minutiae in those minuscule details (e.g. Diesel). Plus, I hope they don't skimp on key things like knee pads, even vest & elbow pad for Big D, since it seems they have better budget available for attire/ring gear, due to them coming sans other random accessories during current day. I am sure I shall be undoubtedly purchasing regardless of personal preferences. Hence forth, whatever Bill & company's choices turn out to be when all is said & done, I anxiously await & anticipate these BP 48 releases unfolding!

Shawn not having knee pads with most of his elites, really take away from the figures. Hoping they can start including them soon

Hoping they can start including them soon My biggest question for Mattel is, How can you not use knee pads for a Shawn Elites but use knee pads for the Then Now Forever Elite Sami Zayn? Even though he rocks his knee pads on the inside too; he also gets a hat and a cloth shirt.

If they're a different color/pattern than his tights they will. I don't see that ever changing. Yeah it would be nice if they were included every time but I honestly do not mind it. When they do match they blend in so well that you barely even notice he's wearing knee pads.

Knee pads would correct this.
