for a guy who doesn't work for WWE anymore,and hasn't for years now,we're getting 3 figures of him next year.
WrestleMania Heritage Basic
WrestleMania XXX Battle-Pack
Elite 29
... makes me wonder if the rumors of him training for a WWE return are true? or did he quietly sign a Legends deal?

Seen something mentioned about contracts expiring soon so they're getting the figures out while they have chance. Could be the case with Batista ?!

Yeah and considering he is starring in one of the biggest films next year(Guardians of the Galaxy) they are using and banking on that movie to sell his figure before the contract is up. Thats my best guess, and its at least an attempt on their part to make a little money. |

Since that is a Marvel movie, and Hasbro makes the figures, maybe this is the last chance for Mattel. I for one need a Batista, so I will buy it. |

I can use a full tat version,so I'll grab one of them,certainly the WM XXX one if Elite 29 isn't that version.

for someone who never really had a chance to get the original mattel batista, this is a great thing.

E2 and E7 can go for the upwards of 100  ing bucks MOC. His basics all go for well over retail as well. And you ask why? Mattel finally is making smart business desicions that's why. I also think Batista is one of these guys who's contract is expiring at the end of the year. And Mattel wants to pump out as many as possible before he's gone. |

I just think it's going to be funny watching his older figures value decrease dramatically by mid next year

I don't care, I'm just so happy to get 2 new Basic Batistas to choose from as I sold both my Elite and Basic version for way too cheap!

it's just funny to me,cause,we had a bunch come out in 2010. which made sense,cause the line was already in production,and he was still there when they started. but then 2011,2012,and 2013 - nothing. now all of a sudden we're getting a Basic,a BP,and an Elite of him all in the same year,after years of nothing.
