Just at least one more set, and make it a set of 8 PLEASE.
Make it RSC/online exclusive just to give us some of the figures Hasbro collectors REALLY wanted out of the line.
Attached a poll, pick up to 8 of the ones you'd like to see most of all. I tried to stick to who I thought Mattel could make legally at the start, so now Owen of course. But, I'm not sure on some of the smaller names like mid carders and tag guys.
I stuck to WWF and Hasbro era, plus a bit prior into late LJN time, and a bit into New Gen era.

Hart Foundation - WMIII or black tops w/pink tights attires LOD - removable pads Roddy Piper - ring attire w/ removable kilt Sting - Surfer Beach Blast ‘92 pink or Starrcade ‘90 green
All non-jumpers. Animal and Anvil with the Ultimate Warrior slam feature. Bret, Sting, Hawk and Piper with the clothesline feature. They have been my dream wants since the retro line was first announced.
The only others I have constantly had on my wish list were the... Steiner Brothers British Bulldogs
And for them it was the same features as above. Davey boy the slam and the rest clothesline’s.

Yes to all. Since I could only choose 8, I went with the Hart Foundation, long tights Macho King, R&B Hammer, heel Jake, USA Lex, Jeff Jarrett, and a better version of Rick Rude.

I picked King Mabel, Made in the USA Lex Luger, British Bulldog and Hakushi. Hasbros were discontinued in 1995 and Retro collectors seem to want the line to pick up where Hasbro left off even though 1995 was an awful year for the WWF.

Just looking over the list, you forgot Power and Glory, singles run Hercules, the Orient Express, the Beverly Brothers, Bodyguard Virgil, and Sir Mo. And you put Typhoon but we already received a Typhoon from Hasbro, Tugboat would have been a better choice. Either way, I'd take all.

My biggest want for Retros would be a tag team set (2-pack). Thinking realistically, if RSC were to ever have an exclusive Retro then it probably wouldn't be an 8 figure set. Possibly a tag team since it was never done. Some of my favorite options would be Mega Powers, Twin Towers (Big Boss Man & Akeem), Natural Disasters, Money Inc, Colossal Connection (Andre and Haku), Legion of Doom, Hart Foundation, Power and Glory, British Bulldogs. I know, that's a lot of suggestions, but they all would be nice and I'd be thrilled to have any one of them.

Considering series 9 and 10 were never available in retail (except for traces in Canada) I would almost consider those online exclusives. I dont see why RSC couldn't make a retro exclusive.

I put Typhoon there because if they did Earthquake they'd need a Typhoon to match. Guess I could have put tag teams as single options rather than each guy individualy. Orient Express and Beverlys would be sweet too, I actually did max out on options though.

But then again, who's to say they dont have warehouses FULL of those sets just waiting to ship them out? So i suppose it's still possible. Hey, if anything we might wnd up seeing them at a place like Five Below or TJ Maxx.

I’d love a few tag team sets, such as The Quebecers, Beverly Brothers, Power & Glory, Orient Express...
Obviously, the Hart Foundation would be awesome, too, but if I could only pick 8 I would go with some guys we never got any of during the Hasbro run, so:
Double J Jerry Lawler Bob Backlund The Barbarian Vader Tugboat (I know we got Typhoon)
Then any of the tag teams above. A special mention goes to Hart Foundation Anvil Neidhart as well.
Ah, I’d love any of them listed above and there is so much potential if the line was to run for another 10 Series!

Assuming it would be a set of four, since that is what we've been getting, I would go:
Mabel (either version is fine) Vader Lawler Double J
If it ended up being a set of 6 like the first two waves, then I'd add Luna (not on the list) and Hakushi. Anvil is a tough one for me. I definitely want him in HF gear but if we were to only get one more set then I want new faces over better attires. Not having Rocket Owen has always bugged me more than not having HF Anvil, anyway.

My eight choices are: 1. HF Bret - SummerSlam ‘90; clothesline action 2. HF Anvil - SummerSlam ‘90; Big E action 3. Macho King - WrestleMania VII; Roman punch action (new parts needed obviously) 4. ‘95 Bulldog (if I can only have one then this one over the short-hair heel - tough choice though) - shorts (any; e.g. RR ‘95); jumper if they can make the Power Slam work, otherwise just go for the obvious Brock slam 5. Jeff Jarrett - any ‘95 attire, e.g. the blue vs. HBK at IYH 2; Elias action 6. Vader - WWF ‘96 attire; new body/action needed 7. Luger - classic USA attire; clothesline if they can change the action to the left-arm so he can do the forearm, otherwise the obvious Brock slam 8. Lawler - blue strap in-ring attire; Owens headbutt maybe? So, so many more good choices both on the list and not - shows just how much ground there was for this line to cover - terrible shame that they couldn’t make it work and to sufficiently profit from us over-grown children

I would love to see more Roddy Piper figures but let's be honest. He didn't have TOO many different looks. We got the Jakks with the Cougar on the shirt along with the white/red Hot Rod Shirt and his Black Hot Rod Shirt. I would like to see this look as a figure: Or if they want to go really old school:
