While I’ve never complain about Flashbacks, especially considering I only collect AE and prior to that, I do have to agree with some of you guys. Pretty much only repaints. Where are some of the guys we haven’t got.

How would these people know what the figures come with and how the modeled? Knowing of new head sculpts and hands, seems a bit ridiculous compared to finding leaked line ups Theyve seen the prototypes or know people working in the factorys

If we are talking about Flashbacks who could be re-released (with slight variations of course), the obvious ones from my perspective are: The Rockers Rick "The Model" Martel These are hard to find and incredibly expensive on ebay. I would have included Demolition, but of course they are part of the concussion lawsuit. We saw similar circumstances with Bam Bam and Big Bossman, and they went ahead and made them available again. I hope they do that with these guys as well. A 1989 Martel would be amazing, like the one in WWE 2k18 with the folded sweater and a new scan. As for the Rockers, they're way overdue for a redo, concussion lawsuit be damned.

As for the Rockers, they're way overdue for a redo, concussion lawsuit be damned. Agree completely. However, until the concussion lawsuit is settled, I don't think we will be seeing new figures from anyone who is a part of it. I would really like a few more Rockers sets, they had a lot of great attires to chose from, for me, I personally would like their 1991 Survivor Series attire. But I would take just about any Rocker attire, SSL 89, WM6, SSL 90, SSE 90, RR 91, as well as some of their attires they only wore at house shows or on superstars. And Rick Martel is long over due for another figure. I missed out on the Legends figure and it is really expensive and hard to come by on secondary markets. They could do his light blue 1989/90 attire or his pink attire from 1992, I'd even take a Strike Force Martel. Since the concussion lawsuit is keeping Mattel from making so many figures, it would be a great time for Mattel to make wrestlers who are not a part of the lawsuit and who have not had a figure yet, Greg Valentine, Hercules, Power & Glory, Superstar Billy Graham, Harley Race, Buddy Rogers, etc. It seems like an opportune time to get new figures out there.

Hopefully the 123 kid basic is in his attire from his hasbro figure Mankind basic with the referee stripes would be awesome Hope Jake in blue means the blue tights with flames on them It would be awesome if we got King Duggan HBK sounds like a re-release of the RSC one Hopefully Razor in green or gold Godfather in purple Hopefully Doink isn't a rerelease and we get a new attire even if just repaint. Would of preferred the jacket and flower as opposed to a lamp Would be nice if Booker T was in Harlem Heat gear, black or blue Xpunk Shane

I hope they do that with these guys as well. I am assuming you mean re-releases of guys who have only had one figure so far, like the Rockers, Demolition, and the Model. Off the top of my head I would also say: Jim the Anvil Neidhart - could do any of his singles runs, 1994 or 1997. Could also do his 1991 singles run, but that wouldn't be a re-paint that would be a completely different mold. Akeem - they did his yellow and blue attire, but he also had a yellow/blue/red attire, red boots and yellow hat. the Texas Tornado - he had a few different color attires, white or blue or purple or red or green. Brian Pillman - Hollywood blondes attire, but we would also need a Stunning Steve Austin to go with him. Tatanka - Evil Tatanka from late 1994 to early 1996, wore darker colors. Also, the white long tights attire he wore as a rookie in 1992. Tito Santana - El Matador tights, Green or Black or Gold, either one. I know, I know, he warmed the shelves hard, so this time make him a limited exclusive to TRUs like Virgil and Isaac Yankem. Honky Tonk Man - I know he has had a few figures, but he has only had one Elite with his jumpsuits. He wore a few different jumpsuits that they could choose from, White and Gold, Blue and White, Blue/Green and Gold, Light Blue and Red, or Black and Blue. Personally, I would like the White and Gold or the Blue/Green and Gold.

Would of preferred the jacket and flower as opposed to a lamp Would be nice if Booker T was in Harlem Heat gear, black or blue Xpunk Shane Wouldn't surprise me if the 123 kid was like his Hasbro figure since we have gotten a few Hasbro inspired figures as of late (Ted in Green Suit, Rick Rude in Purple and Black Tights, Yoko in Black Tights/Red Sash), but I would prefer some of his later attires from 1994 or 1995 (pics below). I am with you on the Jake, I hope it is the blue flame attire that he wore in late 1991 (the night his cobra bit Macho Man). Wouldn't mind King Duggan either, could look cool, also wouldn't mind if they threw in a Demolition face mask like he wore at summer slam 1989 when he teamed with them. HBK had so many different attires that they could choose from, it would suck if it was just a re-release. I am down for any Razor figure, Green from his 1st IC title win or the Gold attire he wore at RR 95 would be cool, personally, I would like his pale blue that he wore at RR 94 or SSL 94 (pics below). Even his debut attire would be cool, Gold and Black vest with Red tights. Doink had a few different attires they could choose from, I would like the green leg and arm attire that he wore when he was evil Doink (pic below).

When's HOC elite set suppose to be released? According to @wwetnafigures on Twitter, they were "told by Mattel directly that it's any day now". That was on January 10th. I've read that it could be sometime in March. Here's to hoping Mattel will meet us halfway.

New posters..
There’s no exact release dates for anything. Usually main line series can be based on the normal cycle of releases. Unless any dates leak or are announced, it’s really up in the air

Dude love thank goodness it's listed.
More Enzo! Wow if he stayed in the company he would have ended up being a John Cena effect in every other wave.
Interested in seeing how American Alpha and Authors of Pain turn out. Even which Kurt we're getting.
