Definitley the Rockers in different colors and Martel in pink I agree with both of these, I don't mind re-releases, but the rockers had so many different looks for them to have just one figure isn't right. Also, I wouldn't mind them making a rocker shawn michaels right now but only if we get a marty jannetty in the same attire later (after the concussion lawsuit). My favorite Rocker attire is from Survivor Series 1991 (pics below), I hope that when they make the next rockers set that they make that attire. I would take any martel right now because I missed out on the legends one, I wouldn't mind a pink attire, or the light blue that he wore just after the split of Strike Force.

Martel and Kane for me. I'm a big Martel mark, and I need an elite early Kane.

Or they're just tired of losing money...ya know like with the Lost Legends Ultimate Warrior that can STILL be bought for less then retail. Or the Lost Legends Undertaker that can STILL be bought for less then retail. Or the Lost Legends Shawn Michaels that can STILL be bought for less then retail...or the Network Bossman that's been clearanced out for over a year and is STILL sitting on shelves. But hey, lets make a new Kane cause damnit I was too cheap to buy one when the were readily available and thought "ill just find it at retail" and now Mickie Ds doesnt pay me enough to buy toys on the secondary market. None of the figures you named are in high demand at all. You make a lot of silly assumptions. 😂 Distribution isn't always great for everyone. I guess anyone who missed out on previous releases are not as cool as you. Even though I've been a forum member longer than you, I'm no where near 17k $h!t-posts in just five years cool as you. 😜 I think his point was that some of those figures were re-released because the originals were carrying such high secondary market values, but once people actually had the chance to get them at or below retail, the interest was suddenly not as strong. Sort of the you only want what you can't have mentality. I'm OK with repaints, but reissues should be minimized if possible. It sucks to have to pay up more to get a figure that is no longer available in stores, but I'd rather that option than taking up slots in future waves that could go to either repaints or entirely new figures.

Also, Tugboat was one of my favorite figures of 2016, so I always chuckle to see how loathed it is.

I only see a couple of his figures at Toysrus. I don't see him at any targets or walmarts. I have seen way more Tito's, JYD's, and Sami Zayn's than Tugboats.
