i ran into MDT Bill at the ROH 14th Anniversary show 2 weeks ago, and specifically asked him what the chances are of getting Beefcake. "Theres a better chance now than there was before" was the answer. I'm pretty sure Brutus is on the way, eventually. Also, back in January, Beefcake did some interviews saying the E contacted him for the 1st time in forever and things were gonna happen. He even hinted at the HOF, but maybe that'll be next year. Nice. Glad to hear that. It'll probably be in like elite series 49 or something Yeah, i would guess the absolute earliest they could get him in the line would be E45.

Brutus would sell by himself, but Valentine would be a difficult sell on his own. . . 2-pack?

Yeh, Brutus would be a cool figure, with those huge clippers he always carried around.

I agree that Greg the Hammer would not likely sell well. It would be a boring figure of a not-so-legendary legend. Brutus, though, has a cool gimmick with hedge clippers and colorful, frilly outfits (plus crazy hair if you give him that look).

Sad when you think about it, all Beefcake has is that gimmick to fall back on. Valentine was a I/C champ, Tag champ, & a NWA US champ. Beefer's only WWF title was the tag title he held w/ Valentine.

I think people who didn't see the hammer until the late 80's early 90's don't know how great he was. The guy was a great Intercontinental and United States Champion, having epic feuds with Tito Santana and Roddy Piper over both titles. He was a great tag team champion with Ric Flair and Brutus Beefcake, the Dream Teams vs the British Bulldogs is an underrated Wrestlemania classics. I can't tell if this board just didn't see Valentine, or genuinely doesn't think he was good.

He is in my top 3 wants with Anvil and Typhoon. We think Anvil is coming, Typhoon is possible, and now Brutus. Koko may be coming too.

If i were to slate him into a series,it would probably be the HoF sets. But I'm afraid Mattel may not go that deep with Titos still filling pegs all over the country. The only other option would be a Matty Collector revival........but Matty is such a damn hassle to me. Still,if it came down to that being the only way we would get certain guys,like Valentine or Bob Backlund, I'd deal with it and buy them.

I worry about how deep the HOF line will go, and if it is here to stay. Mattel has been willing to make us anybody they have the license for, but some 80's guys tend to shelf warm. I think it's just a matter of short packing certain guys to avoid this. Hopefully we can still get our 80's, early 90's fix.
