I can't find hem either. I saw the back pick of the box that shows a pic of taker, but I haven't seen the actual figure. And where is white seth Rollins? Wasnt trolling about Seth, was joking because weve been waiting for 98 Taker forever. We finally get it and its basic. I could see us honestly getting Seth in white as a basic. If history is any indication, attires we clamor for the most, end up in basic form, SS98 HHH, Hitman Punk, 98 Undertaker, I could see Seth being a basic when it sees release, hopefully it's not.

I started collecting about 2 years ago. The first fig I got in stores was E22 Rock. The next day I discovered RSC, and it came down to two possibles, both were readily available: RSC Stone Cold and that Legends Arn. I got Austin, and Arn has haunted me since. Besides SES Punk, thats my most wanted fig.

yeh MattyCollecter WWE wasn't a sub. Which was pretty cool of them....and they let us vote?? I don't think the He-Man, Thundercats, DC Universe or Gi Joe subs were ever that nice. but it didn't work they were only like $28 shipped too. don't think we'll ever get anything like that again. Even though i'd be all in for a subscription service. Pretty sure i heard MDT Bill say on a podcast that it'd never work because the flashback collectors are too divided on what they buy. Collectors are like..."we don't want Cena or Rollins". "Give us more flashbacks". Mattels like...."ok....heres a GOdfather....Gangrel....Val Venis". then the collectors go..."well not those. Thats attitude era. We want older figs...like Macho Man or something." Mattels says "ok...heres a WrestleMania 3 Macho Man!" COllector: "well....not that Macho. I want neon tights Macho w/ the cowboy hat" It must drive Mattel insane. Because the collector base is from 4 to 40 year olds....its very difficult to satisfy everyone. I subbed to the GI Joe subscription service for a year. And i saw similar things on the GI Joe boards. Some ppl wanted the old original joes. Some wanted the early 90s stuff. Some ppl just want ninjas. The sub would try to cater to so many demographics and release 13 figs all from different eras. And ultimately ur going to get like 7 figures u didn't want, because ur not into a certain era of Joe. But at least in other toy lines....someone like He-Man....or DUke...Cobra Commander has always existed in some form in that toy line. With WWE being based on real people.....there are only a handful of wrestlers that you can do several eras with. You know. There's not attitude era version of a John Cena, because he didn't exist back then. Unlike a fictional character like Snake Eyes that has existed through each iteration of that toyline.

No Val Venus and no Gangrel unless you know something I don't know.

I have a feeling we will see HOF 4 and the next Box-set BP 40 Basic 61 Elite 42 Summerslam Heritage Ringside Y2J and a few finished upcoming basic figs.. Becky Lynch Baron Corbin Samoa Joe Apollo Crews Demon Balor
Yes I may be going way way overboard, (The mattel showing is always saved for SDCC) but even if one of these things is on the TFNY floor in the AM, I will be content.

Very late, but I'm glad to see a 98 Taker made, it just sucks it's a Basic. I'll probably still pick it up as a placeholder until an Elite comes along, maybe Best of the Network?
The other SS Heritages are cool, but I'm not a Basic guy so I'm a bit biased.

Hopefully Batista gets the Belly Button tat. I'm not too worried as it's just a computer rendering though.

This^, Mattel has made me one happy camper doing their job. Of course we only want more to be at our disposal.

Don't get your hopes. Every year, we go through this. Everyone gets all excited for TF and pumps it up as a huge reveal... Its not. Its everything we have seen already. You might get lucky with a set here and there, or a figure or 2 getting revealed. SDCC and RSF are the shows for that.
