Which series are these figures going to be in? Hall of Champions?
Backlund with the winged eagle and tornado with the IC belt?

While I would love another Kerry...Did they ever show a new Texas Tornado? I don’t think they did. The only thing shown was what looked to be a custom on that one blowhards Instagram account. I don’t remember seeing one at either SDCC or the Vegas show. Nor do I remember Bill mentioning a new one.

If I can keep it straight, MDT said Bob Backlund was gonna have something to do with E63, but also said it was some kind of Walmart exclusive. Take that for what you will.
Don't hardly remember any discussion about another Kerry coming out.

Tornado is only rumor at this point. Nothing official from Mattel. Kevin is also rumored. I swear if they can find a spot for a bare foot plain attire 2nd release of a figure of someone who only wrestled for a regional company and never a major national promotion then there shouldn’t be any excuses for wrestlers like Graham, Richter, Kama, or anyone else considered “too niche.”

ero asked about Backlund at StocktonCon back in August and was told he was in Elite 63 and that he wasn't replacing anyone when asked. When the MOC pictures were released there was no images of Backlund on the back. That doesn't really mean he isn't still being released with Elite 63, he could still be released but have his own Elite style design.

I seem to remember someone posting some early listings from Amazon or Target and Texas Tornado's name was a release, but then there were no more mentions.

However, I'm not rushing out to buy these expensive figures like Diesel. It's cheaper to buy the rerelease twice, and stick a basic Kevin Nash or Nitro notable head on one

The first Texas Tornado figure is a real cracker. The colors & everything are spot on. Happy for those who haven't got him if hes coming around again.
Also agree about Kevin Von Erich. If he gets a 2nd shot? Mattel have ZERO excuses about "niche guys"....LOL

And I'll definitely be getting that NWO Hall and that Flashback Duggan Retrofest. That vintage shirt on him makes up for the stupid face

That is the first I heard about Backlund being a Gamestop exclusive. So it was elite 63 then some flashback series with undertaker and now Gamestop?

If Backlund is in the Gamestop line at a higher price they should fix the title.
