Bill was saying he'd like to do some re-releases, but doesnt know how to fit em in the line. they do this with elites and basics all the time. just have a flashback re-release set every 6 months or so. nothing major, but a way to maybe get martel, demolition, a few others again. same exact figs, that people didnt get a chance to get that are now on eBay for big money. even if they are RSC exclusive sets.

Please no, I’m all for releasing previous releases but let’s change the attires a bit and get new head scans.
I’d love new figures of demolition, Jake Roberts, Nikolai Volkoff, iron sheik, Rick Martel, hart foundation, the von Erich’s, Hillbilly Jim and JYD but let’s get new attires or head scans. Flashbacks seem to be getting phased out a bit so those spots are precious. I’d still rather see new characters than re releases. Specifically the British bulldogs, Wendi Richter, the hammer or superstar billy Graham.

No thank you. I’d rather see improved versions or just new attires.

no Hell no! There are far too many unused attires to do rereleases, sorry, but its a terrible suggestion, wash your mouth out

I don't mind re-releases but with most they could at least change the attire or make a new head or add something so it isn't just a straight re-release. With the ones you mention, all of them can be changed a bit; Demolition with new face paint, Jake had different tights designs they could use as well as find a different torso so he doesn't look so ripped, Iron Sheik had multiple tights styles and colors along with an entrance robe, Martel could have strike force tights, pale blue, hot pink, etc. JYD had red tights that would be interesting. I would take any of the superstars who haven't been released over guys who already have a figure, except for maybe Martel I missed out on his figure, but if those guys aren't going to get made any time soon I am fine with re-releasing superstars so long as there is something noticeably different from the first figure.

I don't mind re-releases for those who didn't get them even though I have them all. However, I too wish there were some alterations like JYD in the red but the most important one I would want a redo of is Jimmy Superfly Snuka in the classic look with a better face sculpt and barefoot. Maybe if they do the Piper's Pit they could include a new Piper and Snuka with a coconut.

No thanks. Almost every reissue sits around to long. Even hoc kane isn't moving that fast around me. First shipment did well though.

A few dozen (maybe couple hundred) people willing to spend big money on eBay does not translate to tens of thousands of people willing to spend retail price.

Easy to change attire colors for some like Rick Martel

I’d be interested just don’t overproduce them At 1 per case, George Steele went over just fine, in my area at least. Sometimes you'd see him, sometimes not, but you'd never find like, 4 all on one peg. Some are worth it, like E16 Nash and Legends Macho, and I don't think they have the rights to others, like Model Martel and Demolition. There's the Boss Man example of course, but there was also 4 all new flashbacks the followed in NS Elites that warmed equally bad(Ringmaster, Taker, Triple H, Vince). I like it when they switch it up a bit, like change Nash's hajr to dark brown and add a variation with black pants and Macho in orange with medium kneepads,and variations in red and hot pink tights.

I’d like Martel in pink and we obviously need barefoot Snuka. Bill said that was his biggest regret at one point. We need Kona or Evil Crush, too.
So no. Let’s at least get some new attires on guys if we’re just going to straight rerelease them.

Naaah new repaints would be cool. Stalk ebay to get older flashbacks, that was always fun.
