WWE trademarked Hillbilly Jim again today, so looks like he will be in games and possibly figures made.
Are there many looks that can be done bar the obvious?

No point in doing New Generation manager Hillbilly Jim unless they also make the Godwinns, which I am guessing is a big stretch.
I think a Legends rerelease will just about do it.
Although I would love a LARPing knight Hillbilly Jim from WWE Legends House.

I know they were on TV quite a bit in their time but I think they are a little obscure. Its an era we don't get a ton of figures from. FTIL figures are more and more scarce. Not exactly attractive gears that would translate well into toy form. Perhaps a need for new molds. I'd love to have them but I don't see it. |

Well, he'd be another name for the Coliseum Collection.

Not a whole lot to work with there. I have a fix up Hillbilly Jim using a Jakks head and clothes but a Mattel body and am not even sure I would bother to buy an official Mattel one at this point.

He would be perfect for Retros and Superstars too. A better elite with sculpted overalls and better likeness.
Plus my dream line Hulks Rock n Wrestling.

i believe that with that farmer Lesnar mold we are getting the Godwins, hence the re-signing....

Most of the heels available to them are stretches as far as being anchors. Maybe Ted DiBiase? It'd be a strange pairing no doubt. |

Maybe an Epic Moments set with Earthquake from Saturday Nights Main Event and a stretcher.

He's a guy with one look (which has already been done), so not the most exciting news.

Could be good in the Coliseum Collection, Retros, and Superstars lines.
