After an incredible SDCC showing, we've ticked a hell of a lot of figures off the must list. So who is left that's realistic to expect?
Early nineties Sting Hollywood Hogan Hulk Still Rules Hogan Goldberg 1998 Undertaker nWo Scott Hall Elite Million Dollar Man Hart Foundation APA Too Cool
And pending TNA contracts, Hardys and Dudleys. And to be honest, half of this list isn't even essentials really. They're actually very close to pulling off a completely comprehensive legends/flashback/classic line that has included every decent-sized name of the last thirty years (apart from the controversial death ones).

Gangrel, Steve Blackman, Hardcore and Crash Holly, Al Snow, Raven (WCW, ECW, WWF Flashbacks.) Test, Albert (Flashback), Kurt Angle (TNA contract ends.) Shane McMahon, Val Venis, Ivory, Goodfather, urgh, the list goes on and on honestly.
Last but not least, Chyna.

I would really like Sid, Earthquake, and Big John Studd. Not sure how probable they are.

2001 Scott Steiner. I say he's realistic because he was in 2K14 with a bunch of the other WCW guys we have or will get. Not perfect logic, but I'm hoping reasonable enough.
Sid's a pretty obvious one I'm a bit shocked we haven't seen yet. WCW and WWF World Champion and they had him back on TV for the Raw 1000 stuff.

So aside from new versions of guys they have made, it's pretty much just Goldberg, Sid and Steiner. Then whoever our favourite midcarders, tag teams and jobbers are.

From a list of WCW World Champions, we're missing (never-happening/unlikely in italics): Ron Simmons/Faarooq Goldberg Sid Chris Benoit Jeff Jarrett David Arquette Vince Russo Scott Steiner
And WWE/World Champions 1984-2014: Bob Backlund Sid Kurt Angle Jeff Hardy Goldberg Chris Benoit

Steiner and Sid are the only two former WCW World Champions we can reasonably get right now. Sans maybe Simmons, who we will surely get in APA or Nation form anyway. Former WWE Champions I think we are just missing Sid again, Angle and technically Hardy, and then Bob Backlund.

Oh yeah, Goldberg too, duh. I don't know why I keep thinking he already has a figure.

Mattel are damn close to having covered all the important names in wrestling in the last thirty years.

If I had to guess the very next guy from your list to be made:
Sycho Sid, who looks to be in the new video game and wrestled on RAW not too long ago.
Or Goldberg, whose had a DVD made about him but apparently can't come to terms otherwise.
