I don't know why these questions keep coming up. I'll tell anyone who will listen that I want Hogan merch, figures, and to see him back in the video game, and that it doesn't feel right without him as a legend in the fold, but there's no way to tell. Everyone speculating any time frame - from the people who say this time next year to the people who say it's unlikely to ever happen - has no idea. They could have had no contact since last July, or they could be in bimonthly contact with speculative plans in place. Nobody knows besides Hulk himself and the McMahons. The answer to the question posed at the beginning is nobody knows, and there's no way to tell. All that we know is that there's a Hollywood prototype and a workout gear Hogan all ready to go. I think he will be back, but there's no way to tell when. The sooner the better.

Since Hogan filed another lawsuit against Gawker for leaking the racist comments I doubt he will be back any time before the conclusion of that trial. That entire case revolves around proving damages he suffered due to being fired from WWE. Even if WWE wants to bring him back I doubt Hogan will sign because that will hurt his case.

Agreed. I mean they've seem to forgiven X-pac for being in the sex tape and they knew Seth Rollin wasn't at fault for his nude pics being leaked. This whole sex tape is the same as Seth. Since we all know WWE loves money and Hulk can make it for them.....I'm hoping soon enough. Hollywood Hogan and Undisputed Hogan, I'm looking at you (runs towards each other on a sunset beach, with Jimi Hendrix music in the back ground) lol X-Pac and Seth Rolins weren't recorded saying anything like Hogan did. Hogan's being used as an example. When Triple H says on TV "there is no one bigger than the WWE", this is a shoot example of it. They want to show there's no one too big to be Benoit'd out of history, even if only for a temporary amount of time I'm not stressing what he said (not because he Hogan). There are tons of people that talk like that, that aren't recorded (especially with all these incidents on the trump campaign). Based on the black wrestlers and celebrity that say Hogan is "not that kind of person". If the people that hangout with him can overlook/forgive his comments; a stranger like me can too.

I get that, what I'm saying is there has been stuff on shelves all over for the last year, and nobody gave a . One can argue someone clearly did care if you are saying his merchandise has been stocked and not selling for the past year. It is Hulk Hogan so if his merchandise is just sitting on the pegs for a year clearly the consumers cared enough about it not to buy him. CM Punks rode the pegs forever as have Daniel Bryan's and John Cenas. Some figures are around forever due to over production. There are still 50 Warriors over at my closed down Kmart that will never sell. That was a popular figure. Overproduction is your issue, not consumer demand for Hogan figures.

Over production happens alot especially when the guy makes it to the main event picture. And that is what killed the Legends line. My local TRU had over 100 cases of the Legends 2-Pack before all was said and done. I don't think they ever received more than 3 cases of any Jakks CSTT assortmemt. So Mattel had 100+ case of 3 sets...Jakks might have had that cases for their whole run of CSTT at this store. I will be honest other than when they released an Elite, basic and BP Cena all with the red shirt/hat/armband at the same time Cena doesn't stay long on the pegs around here. And Hogan still sold around here, Target would restock the HOF and Hogan was normally the first to go but the OP said he was still finding Hogan figures by him so they weren't selling well in his region.

Honestly I don't care if we ever get that hollywood DM. I'm just like many of the other members on here with a custom one that I already made. Yes an "official" one would be nice but it's not needed badly by me.

Yeah I know. He's clearly been removed from everything because when he came back he kept messing up his lines and was an embarrassment. Things like calling the Superdome the Silverdome is not acceptable. ...that was an almighty blunder and could have been really awkward - but the way Stone Cold and The Rock made fun of it, and then Hulk emphasised SUPERdome at the end and threw the mic up in the air, turned it into a great Wrestlemania moment (to me, anyway!). I'm still disappointed that Hogan didn't make it a running gag and call every arena the Silverdome.
