Hey guys, I've had this awesome idea stuck in my head for a couple of days now and I thought I should put it on here , my idea is a line of Mattel Epic Moments figures. Now what they should be is a 2 pack of figures from historic matches in historic moments from that match froze in certain pose, What do you guys think of my idea ?, if you could own a 2 pack of anyone who would you want ?, Me personally would like Hulk Hogan Bodyslamming Andre The Giant at a Wrestlemania 3 and maybe it could come with a little molded piece of a ring mat like Jakks UF did sometimes.  |

This actually sounds like an awesome idea! Are they frozen completely, or just packaged that way?
I would prefer if they were just posed that way in the packaging. Definitely like the Andre/Hogan one.

1. They can't make hogan
2. This is basically Unmatched Fury
3. They would cost to much to produce at retail
4. After saying all that I still want my Orton RKOing Punk Statue we saw...

I would love a Famous Scenes type series from Mattel. Imagine a Rock and Austin 2 pack from WM x7, or Bret and HBK from 12. It would be an awesome series.

Like Jakks' old Final Count or Finishing Moves series? I'd buy it if they were elite figures.
Hulk Hogan Body slamming Andre WMIII
Shawn Michaels with Bret Hart in the Sharpshooter Survivor Series 97
SCSA stunning Vince 1999ish

I'm not sure how that would work. If their "frozen" how/what would be articulated? I think he means normal figures posed in the packaging, like how the Jakks Final Count figures were. |

2 packs are a tough sale because of the cost/retail price, that's why you only see basic 2 packs.
IF they aren't elite I think some elite elitists will be turned off in addition the figures will suffer from articulation limits thus not allowing for the figures to reenact that "frozen" iconic pose.
Good idea but I think production costs and retail price will discourage Mattel from attempting something like this.
BTW: move to Mattel Suggestions Box?

Yeh great idea ... I think it could work with basics ... The key is the pose and the actual "epic moment" that would sell the figures.

I could see this if they did a set of Battle Packs with a flashback theme. Too bad it'd only come with 1 accessory since they're basic.
Who knows, it could really take off. This would be a great post in the Mattel Suggestion box...

Would be cool but I doubt mattel would go for it since my tru still has legends 2 packs on shelves. Id go with Hogan vs Rock wm 18.
