Where is the second head of pat patterson ? I really think that mattel cut cost production, skipping the second head, and give use useless hands for him. So it will be a young headscan , with 1999 outfit. At least if you take off his suit im sure the figure is old school. I was looking to buy 2 figs because of the 2 versions, but now 1 will be fine, and its a walmart exclusive so its gonna be a pain in the neck to find it. At least the fig will be release.
The hairs of the warrior looks better than the first pics, i hope it be written on the box "the warrior" because he was not the ultimate warrior in wcw.
The thing that i like about the mabel figure his the crown. I think that mattel released every types of crowns : the original with harley race, bret hart crown, booker t crown and now this one. I just remembet , they never and will never release the owen hart crown with the big wwf logo on top of it.
As a cardboard playset, mattel should release pipers pit and the snakepit set.
I like the accessories with the iron sheik figure.
No news about wendi richter,paul ellering and that billy kay figs, so sad

Shinsuke? That’s a surprising name to me at this point. I think it’s awesome and will definitely want to get it, but I just find it surprising.

Apparently the next Ultimate Edition series will feature Bret Hart and Shinsuke Nakamura. I could not have picked two better names for the line than that...Can't wait! 0 Yes to Bret but at that price point idk how many Nakamura's will sell. Rey would have been a better choice imo

Also, what exactly does 73 figures this year mean? 73 elites? 73 different wrestlers?

Any thoughts on what the Bret Ultimate Edition might look like? My top wants are Summerslam 94 and Survivor Series 96, but a WCW Bret would be nice too.

I would think the 94 splatter print from the summer of 94 with a leather jacket (not rubber like the other figures). Most likely it would come with multiple hands, and hopefully some shades that aren't plain but had some refracting to them.

He probably originally was in the WM gear. He debuted the blue/green after that render was shown (SummerSlam 2018), so they likely just did a late change to reflect his more unique attire. Another possibility is he showed it to Mattel beforehand. He posted a video before Wrestlemania saying he had two sets of gear made and asked the fans whether he should wear the traditional gear (WM34) or something new (Summerslam Seahawks gear) I pounded Bill/Mattel for like a week on social media with pics of the attire from the creator begging for it to be made. Maybe Bill saw it? Ill take credit either way lol...Ya'll can thank me later lol

I’m glad it’s the Seahawks gear. Will stand out more. Black and red are pretty common amongst figures.

After watching some Brood Hardyz, I really do wish they went with mold t-shirts. They wore their shirts tucked in.
I guess I'll have to hit up a figure clothing store looking for some shorter length, better tailored shirts come June.

Someone asked him what would be the next Bret and apparently his response was wcw

I'd like a WCW Bret, but can't help thinking an Ultimate Edition should be WWF oriented.

Next two Ultimate Edition figures are said to be Bret Hart and Shinsuke Nakamura: An Ultimate Edition Bret with a super detailed/well-fitting rubber jacket, interchangeable jacket arms, multiple hands (including a set doing his love gesture), stand-alone glasses, and mulipe heads (normal, one with glasses molded on, and one post-match hair) would be an ultimate “Take my money” figure for me.
