Just wondering how many people think a one time only special celebrity series might do? I would be interested in and buy a full set if they released a 6 figure elite line-up that had: Mr. T (wrestling attire from WM 1) Lawrence Taylor (attire from WM 11) Dennis Rodman (w/ nWo attire) Mike Tyson (w/ DX attire) Pete Rose Jenna Jameson (w/ removable attire) (okay, thats not going to happen, let me try again) Donald Trump (w/ barber shop gear) I'd consider dropping Rose or Trump if they included a Gobbledy Gooker w/ giant breakable egg in its place  |

I'd love a Mike Tyson Wrestlemania 14 attire, Mr T Wrestlemania 1 attire, Lawrence Taylor Wrestlemania 11 attire, and maybe a Pam Anderson wrestlemania 11 attire.

Maybe for basics. But they won't make Lawrence Taylor, who was recently convicted of sexual misconduct with a 16-year-old girl.

I can't see it happening. The market would be too fragmented. Kids don't know or care about any of those guys, collectors (besides completists) would not want all, some hardcore fans complain about celebrity guests on wrestling so would boycott it... Plus the licensing costs would be nightmarish.
I know The Simpsons has been doing some celebrity guest figures recently (which is going to include a Bret Hart), but I think their market is different to the wrestling doll market.

Some of these might sell well on a limited sort of basis; maybe a basic 6 pack on RSC. As others have said, though, a combination of issues will keep us from getting them for sure.

They wouldn't sell well at all. Maybe Mr T, but I doubt even he would sell that well.

I'd be interested in a few of these, but not many. I'd like Tyson and a Billionaires Battle Pack with Vince and Trump

It would be pretty cool to see but I doubt I'd purchase any.

It's never going to happen because much like Legends, Mattel would have to make special arrangements with the celebs to make figures of them and it just wouldn't be worth their time.
That said...
Bring on Bob Barker!

I could see Tyson and Rodman selling decently...but I think Tyson could work as a legend type figure too...the guy is a huge part of the attitude era and most of the newer fans still know who he is because thanks to Money, boxing is irrelevant but still acknowledged as existent.
I do not know if a whole series would work, but that is a cool idea though.

Definitely say no to an entire series but slipping a few names into the basic line every now and then could work. Only a few people would sell though. Mr T, Muhammad Ali, Mayweather, ..... That's about it.

don't think these would sell, even if they were exclusives. Nice idea though.
