Because of the budget. Now you know and we don't have to waste his time. Meh, not like he was gonna respond anyway. I don't get it, if it's budget then why did RSE Punk get a plastic shirt? He didn't have as many tats and he didn't have a super detailed attire. ...he DID also have a shiny first-time ECW belt and microphone too though.

I agree that the name legends shouldn't return. I would rather it called something new. Don't see what is wrong with just calling it "flashback elites". Keep the boxing the same as the elite line, maybe a different theme or colour. But if they were next to each other, they wouldn't look out of place. Kinda like exclusives and the current elites.

I told you that we werent getting Windham yet. I guess that one guy kissed his neighbor for nothing lol. Anyway i would love to see Elite Million Dollar Man in his green suit or white with purple trim from his time working with Andre but I wonder if that suit and milion dollar belt could be included in the elite budget. It might, but they would have to skimp elsewhere in the series.

The tag belts being released in the FB/DM line instead of a re-release of Tully pretty much cements Tully as the rarest Matty Elite their is, was & ever will be. Can someone tell me what inverted Kane means? I hope Bill & MattelDesignTeam really anticipate the extreme demand on Hogan, Sting & Razor and supply enough pre-order's to go around for everyone that wants to purchase their much awaited & appreciated product Also please don't go WM3 white tux on Heenan, I know it'd go great with Andre & Hogan, but when I think of Bobby it's always in the purple & black (I.E. his jakks Brian Busters 3 pack attire) And unless mattel has Beefcake planned and in the works please dont go mega maniacs on Jimmy. The mouth needs to be in classic piano keys tie and Harts suite

Heenan and The Mouth of the South on the way!? Bad*ss, both have a lot of cool outfits to choose from, this should be good! Thanks MDT for trying for us! Also, more "Michael Myers" Kanes, yes!

Also, inverted Kane

popydugganThanks brother! My son has that exact Kane in Basic, so they're doing it as an Elite pretty badass. I think every single possible Kane attire & era has been done by matty, not sure why they dont want to cover Taker the same way? The long hair ABA would be SICK! in jeans and bandana, shades and denim jean vest. I think all the Tully's are on malaysia flight 370.

Ah see I didn't hear it that way, I'm not sure its what you're thinking. I heard him say the "other options" comment a few times in regards to other questions too. I took it as there are other wrestler options out there other than another Undertaker. I'd get a Mania 14 Taker, Mania 9 probably not, the Mania 11/12 one we got was good enough for me for that era Taker. Yeah there's definitely a few different ways to hear what he said. I went back and watched that question again to try and figure it out. These are his words: I still think he's talking about attires for Undertaker since he uses the phrase "other ones" instead of "other guys" or "other flashbacks." Atleast that's what I'm hoping because you can never have enough Undertaker figs. NEVER!

Also, inverted Kane Tully wasn't made in the same numbers as the other Matty Exclusives. It was their last one for that year and by then the line wasn't deemed successful and they took Liz out and made her a Flashback. Tully is rare, glad I ordered it when it was first available and didn't wait for a sale.

I love that we are getting Bobby "The Brain" Heenan and Jimmy Hart in BAF. I would love to see down the road and I know Jakks had it has a I believe 1/100 but I think it would be cool to see Heenan in an Elite series or DM with wessel suit. And the thing with Jimmy Hart in a BAF set normally its just the figure, again put Jimmy Hart in an Elite or DM series and give him a mircophone and if there was a DM Hart maybe even give him a few jackets like a Hart Foundation and maybe like a Hogan or Nasty Boys jacket.

Also, more "Michael Myers" Kanes, yes! Ha! im glad im not the only one who saw a lot of Myers inspiration in Kanes character (as well as Eric Rowan). Halloween (1978) is one of my favs so thats what most likely made me a big Kane fan back in the day. Really excited for Inverted Kane, i hate basics and that wasnt cutting it in my collection lol

Bill looks bored out of his skull, and I don't blame him. Same old questions. Part 2, he'll rip those guy's papers up and throw him into the glass display cabinets.

I just wanna say I so glad I didn't buy any of WWE elite 28. Expert triple h l never have any triple H figures before.the build a corporate Kane set look like that should have been the elite 28.that just my opinion.anyway all of the defining moments, ringside exclusive and pick and choose between 30 to 32 will be definitely must have in modest opinion.also WWE Mattel should have gone all out with X Pac.(colorful green singlet,dx jersey or lightweight belt)c'mon go hard or go home.

He didn't have as many tats and he didn't have a super detailed attire. Ringside Exclusives don't have a magical unlimited budget. If that figure had been released in the elite line, it would've had only the plastic shirt or only the belt. As an exclusive, they have slightly higher budgets than elite figures, so it got both of those plus a microphone.

Hey Bill and Mattel. Have a great idea for the old tag team titles. And reverse Kane debut attire and make an black/orange/white X-Pac. They held those titles together.

He only said that he'll try his best to get Windham in, the final decision does not lie with him unfortunately.
