(If this needs moved to the Suggestion board, then feel free. I've seen these types of threads on both boards and thought it might generate more replies here.)
Yes, this is one of those "what I want to see in the future" threads that is destined to come eventually and I feel is warranted since Bill shocked us at RSF with this NOD elite 2-pack:
According to members that talked to Bill at RSF, this will be an online exclusive test run to determine if future 2-packs will be made. I've seen some people say they're surprised they picked such an obscure pair to kick start the line, and I agree, but I do think they will sell well and it leaves the door open for many obscure 2-packs.
With that being said, if these continue, what future elite 2-packs would you like to see?
Here are mine although they lean heavily towards the attitude era:
Vince McMahon vs. Shane McMahon w/2 cloth shirts and a trash can: From their WM17 match. I want flashback Vince in ring gear more than anything! It's a shame they don't have the rights to make a Shane.
The Headbangers w/ 2 classic Tag Titles: There's no way these would make it to the mainline elite series but they're fun visually and could come with 2 classic tag titles.
Razor Ramon and Shawn Michaels w/IC Title and possibly a ladder: 2 repaints that would sell great as single elites but possibly even better in a 2-pack.
2000ish Triple H and Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley with Attitude Era Title and Women's Championship: Both of these flashbacks get asked for so it could be an easy way to knock out 2 birds with 1 stone and avoid putting them in the mainline elite series.
Harlem Heat w/2 entrance hats (or bandannas) and 2 sunglasses: I believe we are getting these either way but how much cooler would they look MOC in an elite 2-pack? WCW Tag Team titles would be ideal accessories but there's absolutely no reason to even get our hopes up a tiny bit for those lol.
ECW Dudley Boyz w/2 pairs of glasses, a table and removable baseball hat or bandanna: Current Dudley Boyz are most definitely getting Elite figures and their current look is pretty much the same as their iconic look throughout their WWE run. These could come as a Battle Pack as well but most of us prefer elites.
Booker T and Goldust w/2 Raw Tag Team Titles: This would be a good way to get non-HH Booker T back out there (in diff color trunks) along with the Raw Tag titles. I know it's not the most requested elite flashback version of Goldust but I think we will get a single elite FB of 1996 Goldust eventually.
As for the rest of the NOD: I think a Battle Pack of Mark Henry and Kama would be more suitable. These 2 would kill the line and don't necessarily need elite treatment. D'Lo isn't signed and he will get an elite with chest protector and European title whenever he is.
What about you guys? what future elite 2-packs would you like to see?
