I only have a couple of years collecting. I've been buying some old figures, but now I am unsure to buy old figures now that they rereleased some.
I am on the edge of buying an amazon Mankind. Do you think they are going to rerelase this one?
Does anyone else share this same feeling for rereleases? Honestly I am against them. I am not against repaints, but exact rereleases bother me.

I don't see that Mankind being re released in the near future. I hate the re releases especially with no differences as it takes up spots in lines and it feels lazy to me. The only re releases I've been happy with are DM Undertaker and Legends Elite Warrior (but there are minor differences on them).

We might see a basic brown mankind but I doubt a elite rerelease.

If you are afraid of rereleases, you might want to collect something other than WWE Mattel figures. Because unless said person is on bad terms with WWE and/or never coming back, Mattel is going to do what they want regardless of future collector value. Buy Mankind if you want to do so. Don't be gunshy because of rereleases. Might be 4 years or more before it even happens.

Doubtful
They still have to do Dude Love and might do Commish Foley, plus they are just putting out a second Cactus now

Why are you afraid of a rerelease is it going to physically harm you? Will it harm others? No, there is no need for fear of a plastic toy being made again. Buy what you please but fear isn't a rational response to a toy.

it takes up spots in lines But they haven't though. Boss Man- Network Spotlight Taker- DM King Booker- HOF Yokozuna- HOF Diesel- HOF Bam Bam- TNF Kamala, HBK, Jericho, Warrior, and Taker were given a completely separate release so as to NOT take up spots in the Elite line.

True but we could of got corporate Bossman instead and the Booker and Yoko were re paints which I'm fine with. I also meant the re releases in the basic lines with no differences. I see why Taker was a re release in the DM as Bill gave a good reason behind it.

I think rereleases are necessary. Not every store get everything. I AM STILL WAITING ON PAUL BEARER. Its easy to say just buy it online for 3xs what you should buy them for. That makes no sense. What about people who get into collecting later. The whole we dont need releases is kind of selfish.Repaints are different and the same lol. We all want all the colorful Stings because well its Sting but what about guys who have 0 figures. It still takes someones spots. Once again its selfish.

Regardless of anyone's opinion on them, rereleases are smart from a business standpoint. It gets product to the shelves with a minimum of fuss and muss.

I agree it's smart and sometimes they are good but could you imagine how much better the legends series could of been with a different HBK, Undertaker, etc.

I wished they would've chose a different ink color for HBK at the very least if even keeping everything else the same.

Do I think they are going to rerelease the Amazon Mankind? No. Do I care if they do? Nope not in the slightest. It is a great figure and I wouldn't care if they rereleased it again for those who missed it. I have 3 already from when Amazon first put it up. So it is just one more figure I can pass on, but it is a figure that I hope anyone who wants can have without have to pay secondary market prices for.
I have no issues with Mattel straight up rereleasing past figures. I have every figure that I have wanted that has been released already. So it they rerelease the same figure I can pass on it or if it was a figure I want another of I will buy it.

If I have something that's being rereleased,...as soon as I find out its planned I go and sell the one I have for the high price and then I pickup the new one for $20 at retail.
Amazon mankind won't be rereleased for a while I believe. E17 mankind may be coming again soon

I hate this rereleases. I missed out on a fair share of figures and have no problem spending on the secondary market. After all it was my fault i didn't get it. I hate buying off eBay or something and then it get rereleased though. Only reason i hesitate sometimes.
