Everyone on here fantasizing about Bulldog, when it will probably just be him in jeans... I've wanted one in jeans for 20 years... Cant you just put a L3 Bulldog head on a figure wearing jeans? Personally, I want a Summerslam 1996 British Bulldog  |

Good answers out of Bill on the Ultimate Edition 1 current 1 flashback. An asst of premium priced figures instead of solid packed cases of 4 which destroyed the Defining Moments and Entrance Greats revivals as stores would be stuck with unsold stock. Would have been smart to do the same with the elite 2 packs perfect slot for Kama Mustafa and Nation Mark Henry. Looks like Bill wants to design a Gangrel hopefully he can get to ok on that one

I vaguely remember Jakks having issues signing Dynamite, and someone at WWE appears to have issues with him. I wonder who it is? Probably Kevin. He is probably jealous Dynamite got his teeth knocked out. I popped so hard for this. |

Sad to hear how unenthusiastic Bill was about Hogan. Even if WWE gives the ok, there's still checks and balances? Ugh! Well, WWE and Mattel higher-ups would have to give the OK. Plus, there's Hogan's contract with Storm Collectibles that could muddy the waters a bit... no-one quite knows what that entails. I think Bill would LOVE to make Hogan figures again though - he's just not getting his (and fans) hopes up. |

That’s really cool to hear about Jeff having three interchangeable heads and a new towel. Now I wish they could of actually fixed something that should of been fixed a long time ago.... why has Mattel not retooled the tank top torso into a shirt torso? Mattel can’t be that blind to not notice that he has a molded tank top instead of a skintight shirt. Yet, we get a unique torso for a Kurt Angle that nobody wants. I really wish they would address this situation.

A little off topic, but Gangrel is guest coaching at the Performance Center right now. So seems like he's on pretty good terms with WWE, so a merch deal isn't totally out of the question at some point.

I'd say that's a good sign, he'd just have to have that legends deal signed before they do work on him. However I think he's more possible now than before since it was an issue with the name over anything else. |

Gangrel was on the E&C pod and talked about wanting to do action figures and work with WWE on merch now that he had the rights to his name, so it's just up to WWE to get it together. Hopefully Mattel puts out feelers, since Bill seems enthusiastic about being able to make a Gangrel.
