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. Not to be a dick, but it was e6. Whatever man you'll notice I've made countless typos since switching to the iPhone in September. God I hate touch screen.

I read that he is looking to return. His MMA gig didnt go well, he could barely handle an out of shape nobody. Now he has been in a few movies and probably wants to get back into the ring. Perfect timing for figures. Truthfully I could see him returning for the Rumble, or as a surprise entry.
Now for the contract thing, I dont believe he is under contract. How could he be? It was stated very clearly in Brock Lesnar's autobiography that if your signed to the WWE you cant do MMA or wrestle for other promotions. Batista was done back in 2010 as far as I understand. So I could see these figures as a precursor to him returning.

I'm hoping his new Elite will be WM 21 with the World title. Hell I'd take anything from his first run as champion.

I've made like 2 posts or so on my smart phone and it really is a pain. I'm, cool with getting one new Batista, but its too bad seeing an additional two slots being taken up by a non-roster dude when I think there are numerous other flashbacks that are deserving.

I remember thinking..No,No, no way when they showed the comparison card..I busted out laughing. I have seen middle school kids fight better than this.

Because they just got the rights to produce figures of him again, he's one of the biggest stars of the last ten years in wrestling, and he's in a big movie next year.

For all you guys hating on Batista, he has a message for you - YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE MY FRIEND!

I'm really hoping his e29 version is his debut like attire with an evolution shirt and raw tag belt gold with red flame! I'd be all over that!

I would prefer a Heeltista more than his debut, cause he was "CM Punk" tier in 2011

My favorite Batista attire was white trunks with red elbow pads and knee pads - I'd like to see that one, from New Year's Revolution 2005.

I'm happy where getting some more Batistas as Mattel heads were smaller back when he was getting figures so he seems alittle out of place now. I look forward to seeing what the E29 version will look like.
And on the contracts running out I'm happy that Mattel are doing there best to gives us great versions of Flashbacks before we can't get them anymore. I'd hate to miss out on JYD, M$M, or versions of Crush, Andre, Batista, Roddy Piper, etc...

The Batista and Edge's will probably just use the same molds with new paint jobs. Same with any Goldust probably. And yes, Im sure the contracts of Crush, Batista and Andre are probably up along with the MattyCollector poll ones so hopefully we get Doink, JYD and a couple others.

I haven't visited here much in the last 2-3 months...where is the thread about the Mattel legends and contracts expiring everyone is mentioning?
