-If James Ellsworth is signed, he will probably get a figure. Problem is Bill doesn't know his status. -KMart 3-Packs are done. -Sherri is signed, Bill wants to do a WM7 Sherri. -New elbows are way cheaper to make and apparently the ones that are going to be released look the best. Bill says he thinks they're the best yet. -2017 will be tweaked 2016 packaging. -Packaging in 2017 will have the new logos for RAW and SDL. -New belts are going to come out quick. -Fabulous Freebirds might come out, but only if Bill finds a spot for them in the line (He wants to release all three at the same time.) -Early 2018 for a mystery pre-Nitro character. -At least one more nWo figure coming out not soon but it will be if they find a spot -Goldberg will be coming out. He won't tell the attire, though. -TJP and Brian Kendrick are signed. But some others are pay-per-appearance deals. -Bill says Dude Love is a challenge due to the tie-dye. -Yes they can make other gimmicks of characters, but only if they find a good spot and if they will sell enough to justify inclusion in the line. -A few female managers are signed to deals. -No Dink unless he appears on TV every week consistently. -NXT belts are in the works. -HOF line is continuing, they're going through inventory issues. -Retro line will continue if the first wave sells well enough. -Mutants and Zombies will continue if people buy them. -LJN retro figures are iffy due to the weight of them. -SDCC Exclusive confirmed for SDCC 2017. -Slammy Awards with figures seem to be random.

Kinda disappointed that Bill took the question about more female flashbacks to just mean female managers. I was hoping for news on classic female wrestlers, like Madusa or Jacqueline

Not to sounds like an a-hole...but I AM SO FLIPPING HAPPY NOELLE DIDN'T DO THE BILL Q&A!!!
I'm sure she's a really nice girl. I just really enjoy an interviewer that can ask follow-up questions and has at least a moderate knowledge of the Mattel line.
I thoroughly enjoyed this Q&A so much. Thanks, Ringside!

Female managerS? So, Sherri and who else? There arent many memorable ones that are in good standing with WWE.
Marlena Luna Vachon (would LOVE this) Torrie Wilson Stacy Keibler Trish (T&A)
Why isnt it transparent who is signed or not until they are asked in Q & A? That's really annoying to me.

Solid interview. Some decent info out of it, I guess Syxx might be the next nWo guy coming. Issac Yankem might be the guy Tom was referencing with a different look. Dude Love might be better served as an exclusive with the budget deco or even a defining moment.

Thanks for asking my question. It's nice to hear about the figures and all. But glad they asked the man behind it all, Bill what brings him the most enjoyment during these RSF and SDCC events

They're trying to make different characters and trying to appeal to more than just the flashback demographic. Legend Killer Orton got made... Undisputed Jericho shouldn't be far behind.

Undisputed Jericho shouldn't be far behind. So how many years of asking/pleading/demanding did it take to make a legend killer orton which is just a younger face scan and an rko shirt ? By that rule of thumb we should get it in 2020 or later...

Glad to see Tom again. He's just one of those people I legitimately enjoy having around.
