Ohhh and Hideo is not gonna be released at all now WHY Probably because was likely a guaranteed warmer to begin with. Now that’s he’s no longer on the active roster he’s sure to warm even harder. Probably the right call on their part.

Had gotten the basic Itami some time back with the assumption he'd never have an Elite. Sad that was accurate.
As much as I love Balor, I love the NXT getting people who probably don't get figures otherwise. I wasn't picking up many figures when the first wave came out so I need to go overpay for an Austin Aries but getting Jose, the Revival and assuming Killian Dain probably won't be released again soon given the amount of TV time Sanity gets on the main roster.
I can't wait to get Titus, Roddy and Andrade and with no Itami, I'd love to get someone else along those lines slipped in. But I guess if they do someone that we have options on I can be glad to give my wallet a rest.

This is very confusing- is he saying that Flashback series 3 was a short run or that the entire line was a short run?! It sounds as though whatever was released is what was made which means there are no more unsold series 3 figures out there some where which SUCKS!! Did you ask him if they plan on re-releasing any of the figures from Series 3 again due to that wave not been widely available?! We finally get another Steamboat elite and they stick it in a line that gets cancelled before it even gets going- Mattel's marketing/distribution departments are one big Gong show! What happened to Mr. Pefect- he was revealed before Sheik, why is Sheik hitting sooner?! I wonder if this means they might be making changes to that figure? They should do a variant- half the run the black singlet they showed and the other half green singlet. This way people have a choice as to which version they want to buy.

Can’t wait for Andrade. I hope they can change roddys attire to UE. Doubt it tho I was thinking the same recently. I want Roddy either way but he is going to seem so naked without any Undisputed Era representation next to the rest of the group in my collection.

Sucks we won't get an Elite Itami.
Sucks we won't get Seth's Rollins gear, though that was pretty well known.
Sucks the FB line had a short production run, even less likely they will pop up again for those who missed out.
Sucks that more focus will start to be placed on $10 more expensive figs with horrid waist joints (opinion).
Sucks that no numbers were given on how much or little scalper bait in the main lines improved Mattel sales, despite distribution still hitting sh*t lows.
Sucks that I wouldn't doubt one of the Ricochet/Gargano/Ciampa is a Target exclusive.

Bill’s opinion on the store exclusives It’s more of a marketing thing. He designs the figs, and tries to stay out of the distribution part. If Bill tries to stay out of the distribution part, I wonder why he asked us to post photos of our stores to "help with distribution" a while back.

Ohhh and Hideo is not gonna be released at all now I would assume no word on a replacement? I’d say that at this point it’s most likely they will just pack the case with someone like Aleister or McIntyre from the current wave. I’m sure they didn’t have time for a whole new figure.

Have we gotten any word on a figure of Kassius Ohno, EC3, or Heavy Machinery?
They’ve all been in NXT for more than a year, and I really want elites of all of them.
