Do you think Mattel will show us an updated Kane figure since his return at Comic Con? I'm hoping they can have an Elite proto for us and likely a Basic.

I think Mattel will show us a new Basic Kane.

I imagine we'll see an Elite prototype.
Sin Cara made his debut in April last year and was shown around October for Ringside Fest, giving them a 6 month window. By the time SDCC rolls around, it will have been nearly 8 months since Kane returned with his new gear.

I pray we do! He's the one black eye of my collection, because he is so outdated.

>:(When is the comic con? Late July I think. To reply to OP, we've already been shown his Rumbler. It should be obvious we'd see a Basic of him. If they DO have an Elite proto ready it'll probably be an early one, and he'll be in E18 not 17. I remember last year at SDCC (in July) E11 and E12 were shown (in July). E11 came out like 3 weeks later (August), while E12 didn't come out until October (3 months after SDCC) so they might be able to do a little more work to it. Saying he'll be in E18 is pushing it though, so I'd say he'll be in E19 or E20 (which will be shown at RSF in October I'm guessing), and set for release around December at the earliest. All of my guesses on dates are based off of last years Elite release schedule and patterns

I really hope they are making a new Elite in his updated attire with the mask & that metal mask cover

Surely we will. The time frame to work on it will have been 8 months which is a large chunk of the time schedule and he is one of the glaring superstars in need of an update. Surely a basic will be there, most likely in his return-before WM28 gear and Im hoping the elite is his current gear. Id like to see both the basic and elite.

Its inevitable that Kane will be one of the featured figure debuts at comic con.
I've been seeing a lot of people say he's had two different attires since coming back. I have not seen this at all, as far as I know its been the same this whole time. I even went and watched several videos back and can't find a difference between his redebut, and post WM.

Doubt it will be elite. But I really hope it is.

I am sure we will see one. Masked Kane is a more marketable figure than his unmasked look. Just look at how well his RSC sold, and his E12 FB. Kane sells, plain and simple. Mattel would be stupid not to have some sort of Proto ready for SDCC.
It wouldn't shock me if they even got a heads up from WWE, because it is ironic that his debut attire fig starting hitting shelves around the time Kane returned in a mask. Also did MDT say something about not making FB figs of current talent, but then we have FB Kane.
For me the biggest question is if his mask is removable or not.

I have not seen this at all, as far as I know its been the same this whole time. I even went and watched several videos back and can't find a difference between his redebut, and post WM. Subtle nut noticeable differences. His initial gear had the orange, red and yellow flame on his right leg. The red stitching was on a pipe like thing and the sitching was much smaller and harder to see. His newest attire has moved the flame to the left leg, changes its design and it is only red. The sitching is now on the actual gear itself not on raised 'tubing' and the stitches are much larger/can see them better. Not to mention the positioning of the stitching has changed a fair bit too. His newer mask is the more textured one that fits his face better and has the strap on the forehead. Return-Wrestlemania 28 Wrestlemania 28-now As we all know, kane sells very well figure wise especially masked renditions so im sure we'll see our fair share of him released particularly since his masked attire is more exciting looking than his unmasked tights and its a new attire (which is a good excuse for mattel to release him more). We will most likely see both in basic, would be good to see both as elite though I suppose if i had to choose i'd like to see his most recent in the elite version. Either way I DONT want to see a removable red mask, it needs to be moulded onto the scan however i really want to see them include a removable metal mask.
