Just wondering, I know he hasn't been on TV for a while (both due to injury and he's not the most popular), but have they made a post Hart Dynasty Tyson Kidd?

I've never had a display where my Elites and Basics weren't fully integrated, so I never noticed until I took them down and put all the Elites in one box, but damn, the Elite line sucks. Not the quality of the figures, mind you, but in 4 years we've only gotten about 50 current roster guys. There are so many grevious omissions it's ridiculous. David Otunga was on T.V. week in and week out for a very very long period of time and was integral to the storylines he participated in and he gets glossed over for what? More Mysterios? Mysterio basics sell like hotcakes. Mysterio Elites pegwarm for half a year and longer. I can still buy Elite 15 Rey Mysterio, Elite 18, and Elite 21 at retail around here.
Collectors might make a small percentage of the overall purchases of WWE figures, but if you broke it down I'm sure that a higher relative ratio of the adult collectors buy Elites. I wish for the sake of my wallet that I could go cold turkey on basics but they are a necessity when over 50 characters have only ever gotten a basic.

You hit the nail on the head, I never really thought about it like that. Basics are pretty important to trying to fill out a collection. I just wish some of those characters were made into elites.

There are a ton of Flashbacks that could be made, as well as plenty of current main roster guys but don't because they "won't sell." An updated Tyson Kidd is at the top of my list for that.

Face it you have a better chance of winning the lottery than seeing an updated Tyson Kidd and JTG

There should be at least 2 flashbacks in every elite wave and at least 1 or 2 in the basic line and Battlepacks needs to have some kind of legends 2 pack like red LOD otherwise its gonna be repeat city for alot of these moving forward!

....then throw in a Cena. why not.
