Obviously, it is limited to performers that are in the HOF. Lets also assume that they will all be repaints so they have to have been made already. Here are the current wrestlers that already have a figure made by Mattel that could be included in future HOF sets if there is going to be more.
-Andre the Giant
-George "The Animal" Steele
-Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka
-Junkyard Dog
-Hulk Hogan
-"Rowdy" Roddy Piper
-"Cowboy" Bob Orton
-"Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff
-Nikolai Volkoff
-Iron Sheik
-Bret "The Hitman" Hart
-Eddie Guerrero
-"The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes
-"Mr. Perfect" Curt Henning
-Jerry "The King" Lawler
-Jim Ross
-"Nature Boy" Ric Flair
-Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat
-"The Million Dollar Man" Ted Dibiase
-"The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels
-"Hacksaw" Jim Duggan
-Edge
-Yokozuna
-Bruno Sammartino
-Mick Foley
-Booker T
-Jake "The Snake" Roberts
-Paul Bearer
-Razor Ramon
Now, this might not be a repaint only line and I guess there is the possibility of getting some other HOF's in the main elite line (Ron Simmons, Koko B Ware etc) but as of now, this is who we have already that could be repainted. There are a few obvious guesses if there would be a series two that jump out at me (Hogan, Razor, Flair, HBK, Hart, etc) and there are a few that probably don't need a second release as Mattel got it right the first time (Duggan, Sammartino, George Steele).
Anyways, there is the list of possible HOF releases. Do what you want with it.

It'll most likely be a set Mattel to give us alternate attires of guys who have already been released as Flashbacks/Legends, which I'm totally fine with. I'd love for them to give us other Elite versions of guys like Piper, Hogan, Mr. Perfect, etc. in the Hall Of Fame set.

I'd love for them to give us other Elite versions of guys like Piper, Hogan, Mr. Perfect, etc. in the Hall Of Fame set. I missed out on Piper back when I wasn't collecting Mattel. He's really the only guy I missed out on back then and still want, though I kind of want a modern era looking Piper, though at the same time I don't care because modern Piper doesn't look *that* different from classic Piper, so whatever. I just want a Piper figure. And to meet the man himself before I die as well. |

I'd say that the answer to who could be in the HOF series is people who are in the Hall of Fame. May be wrong tho.

I hope that macho goes in this year....
As for the next set
I would love to see more bret harts and we are due another Eddie..
1. Eddie
2. Bret hart (the splash paint attire)
3. Jake the snake
4. Ric flair
But I would be happy with most from that list and I'm excited for this to be a way to more flashbacks out.

If I were going to guess a 2nd series, it would be:
-Hollywood Hogan
-Razor Ramon (black and gold attire)
-Jimmy Snuka (Barefoot)
-Ted Dibiase (EG, but elite form)

First of all, i really hope this first set will sell well so they will produce more.
Then, i'd love them to produce figures of superstar they never made like:
Bobby Heenan
Gerg Valentine
Lita
Ron Simmons (please Nation of Domination attire!)

That is certainly a possibility if they slipped Valentine in a set or lita and packed them 1 per case like Sgt. Slaughter and Trish. Then put guys like Hogan and Piper in the same set packed 3 per case. I wouldn't imagine they stay on the shelves too terribly long. Now if Mattel decided to make that exact lineup you just mentioned, I bet that would be the last HOF series we get. lol |

I think that a set with Hogan (maybe 2002 red and yellow one?), Bret (or HBK) and maybe 2 like Lita and Valentne would be possible, don't you think? |

If WrestleMania 8 Jake the Snake is too risque, I like to see a purple with green snakes or Green with purple snakes attire. His last Battle Pack figure had the right design, but that yellow was ridiculous. And if they want to throw a little more deco on the snake, that would be cool too.

We're getting at least one more series in the second half of the year, let's just hope they do well enough for more next year.
I think Series 2 will be:
Eddie Guerrero (Bill said he's coming, so this would be a good spot)
Jimmy Snuka without shoes.
Ted DiBiase (though we may need him in DM to get the suit, I'd pay $25 for that)
Jerry Lawler (flashback scan with goatee would be nice, but just the new head on the elite flashback body with same accessories and different gear would be fine)
Of course, I'd love to see Steamboat in green or unreleased guys like Barry Windham, but I'll take what I can get.

I'd go with:
-Edge (camo) with t-shirt
-Bret Hart (Survivors 96) with jacket and shades
-Shawn Michaels (SummerSlam 95) with ladder
-Million Dollar Man (WM4) with removable white suit
