I’m a little torn on how I feel about the attire choice for the Walmart Flashback HBK. On one hand I think it is too similar to RSC to warrant a release at this point. On the other hand I do think “Mr WrestleMania” should have an elite figure of every one of his WM appearances. So it got me thinking how many more do we need. The baggy pants painted on chaps era is where I need some help filling in the gaps. I also want to figure out which Taker WM we have and still need but that can be another day. HBK: V - vs Twin Towers - No Figure VI - vs Orient Express - No Figure VII - vs Haku & Barbarian - No Figure VIII - vs El Matador - RSC Exclusive IX - vs Tatanka - No Figure X - vs Razor Ramon - Walmart Flashback XI - vs Diesel - No Figure XII - vs Bret Hart - WM33 Elite (Basic - EG & HOC) Xrated- vs Stone Cold - WM30 Elite XIX - vs Chris Jericho - No Figure XX - vs Triple H & Chris Benoit - No Figure 21 - vs Kurt Angle - No Elite (Basic - not sure) 22 - vs Vince McMahon - No Elite (Basic - WM31 Heritage**) 23 - vs John Cena - No Elite (Basic - B26 WM Heritage**) XXIV vs Ric Flair - No Elite (Basic - not sure) 25th Anniversary - vs Undertaker - Defining Moments XXVI - vs Undertaker - No Elite (Basic - TRU WM26 Series**) *XXVIII - End of an Era Referee - BoPPV **Thanks punksnotdead Rated [R] NinJa |

Wasn't the legends 2-pack of the Rockers very close to the WM5 attire, minus the shirt - but the tights were the same. I would like the WM6 and WM7 version of the Rockers, but if I had my choice of Rockers attire, it would be their Survivor Series 1991 attire.

HBK's kind of in that boat with Savage where I think his "everyday" attires are a lot more memorable and iconic than his Wrestlemania/PPV ones. When I think of mid-'90s HBK, this is exactly what I picture.  |

He did get a WM22 figure in a Basic WM Heritage wave. (Even though they put the wrong WM logo on the back. Which seems to be pretty common with this series.)  |

They’re similar but think there’s enough differences to say it’s not WM5. The tights on the figure look more neon yellow than neon green. The WM attire has tassels on the tights and boots. Shirts are clearly different. And Shawn’s wrist bandanas are a different color.  |

If you want to change the arms and the shirt go ahead because they’ll never make that gear again |

There are so many HBK figures left to make! I really want Elites of Royal Rumble 1997, WrestleMania 19, Survivor Series 1997, and WrestleMania 23.

Must be the lighting making those tights look that yellow. They appear to be more neon green to me.  |

When I think of mid-'90s HBK, this is exactly what I picture. I'm with you on this 100%. This attire specifically is way over do. Correct me if I'm wrong but the last figure we received with this attire was a Jakks BCA. |

HBK still has a ton of attires I’d like to see made. 90s HBK is my all time favorite.

WM23: WM26: I have the wm26 basic (because I collect any and all HBK). And I just wanna say, how the hell did they decide to turn HBKs last match into a basic? That was dumb. |

We need more Elite HBK's from his later years.
WM22, WM23, WM24 and WM26 should all be done as Elties.

I’m gonna take a wild guess and assume because they’d recently acquired the WWE license and these were out within their first year, they probably made HBK a basic to not interefere with the Defining Moments (WM25) figure sales seeing as they were released around a similar time. Plus they did have a very detailed Mysterio and HHH accessory along with Taker & Swagger in their WM26 Elite line which usually consisted of the winners. Shawn was just a bonus figure. |
