I rest easy knowing the perfect Flair has already been made. It is awesome - but for accuracy, the black robe works better with the HOF/4 Horsemen body... also flair wore a turquoise boot with red lettering not this royal blue with white totally inaccurate for any year other than his mid2000s wwe run

The more frustrating thing is:
Goldberg returns to WWE TV in October 2016. (had business relationship with WWE long before that date, due to inclusion in WWE 2k17). Was the reigning Universal Champion going into WrestleMania 33.
It is now April of 2018, and we've got ONE Goldberg figure stuck behind a $100 paywall. No WCW/1st run WWE Flashbacks. No Basics. No Goldberg/Lesnar 2-pack. Just the one with the main event ring.
When is Mattel going to lift the ban on Goldberg, when the ring with the $100 Jinder comes out?

the most frustrating thing is that Bill has no plans for more elite Surfer Stings, yet we have 3 craptacular BASIC Surfer Stings...wtf.

I compensated on flair by buying/using: DM Black Flair Robe and HOF 4 Pack figure DM Blue Flair Robe & Figure Basic Red Flair with Jakks Red Robe DM Black Flair figure with Jakks Blue Robe Also have the Jakks green Flair and To be on display (as you can't tell with the robe on)
So I easily have a few flairs. That said I'd happily have more Mattel Flairs

How can anybody hate Ricky Steamboat? I don't get it. He was like the ultimate babyface. I hate hated Ricky steamboat so bad. I’m a heel guy (long story). The only baby faces I liked were hogan, savage and Hercules but I liked them all better as heels anyways. Even a guy like hogan, who I followed almost religiously, I routed against when he wrestled my heel favorites like dibiase, earthquake, Zeus, and mr perfect. My brother would always say I rooted for the bad guys. My favorite guy was Bret Hart back when he was a heel tag team guy with the Anvil. So I know what you mean. I do like some good guys, though. It just depends. But I felt like Steamboat was a guy nobody could hate - different strokes for different folks is what makes the world interesting.

While I would buy more both Flair and Steamboat it’s the lack of surfer Sting that is frustrating to me. I said it before and I will say it again...I wouldn’t be upset if they released a Surfer Sting in every single wave of every single line they release. I totally agree. It's just puzzling the lack of Surfer Stings.

I know they want to shift that blasted ring - but how long are they going to wait before making another Goldberg?

In all seriousness, you would think Mattel would learn from the whole hogan situation. Same thing goes for rvd, I seriously wonder what goes on in their headquarters. When that Goldberg comes out I feel like it's going to be a dissappointment. It better have a unique body mold, tan, glossed boots, proper sized kneepads and some kind of cool belt.

I can't wait to see this "rumored" Steamboat. Only my biggest want since 1987. I have plans to mix and match boots and jackets, as he did in WrestleMania 2, 3, and 4, including SNME events.

The lack of elite Sting kills me. There's so many looks they could go and they choose to release the same crap over and over with no adjustments or variation. I know it’s ridiculous, my favorite is a head swap I did with the green basic and Bash at the Beach Multicolored scorpion. The Great American Bash one I got has terrible articulation and this remains in the box, the jacket is rad and I’d love to see the pink and black jacket like OSFTM and Galoobs released

Also would be rad if they released a Flair Rope pack, just several of his most iconic ropes and like a tiny closet to fit them in. Too weird?

So what if they released a family pack for Steamboat from the angle in the 80s against Flair where his wife and kid accompanied him to the ring at PPV’s... look pretty rad in a case.

The most frustrating thing is Mattel didnt rehire Jeremy Padawer in 2010 to headline their WWE program.

We need Flair from 94 in WCW wit the cereal bowl haircut and and a red robe elite. Also Need Surfer Sting Elite with hot pink attire. Goldberg with US and WCW World Title, Razor Ramon in green or gold elite. Harlem Heat Battlepack in blue or black. Hart Foundation in all pink battle pack. Dudley Boys and Hardy Boys flashback battle packs.
