Would Big Bubba Rogers be an option? Or does that fall into the too niche to be made category? I was a huge Cornette/Midnight/Big Bubba fan.

do you have the rights to make the Brahma Bull championship belt? It never made it to TV (but neither did the yellow winged eagle with Legends Warrior). WWE has had it on display at Axxess and its made it into some of the WWE videogames. Don’t know. Have never inquired. Titles are pretty expensive to tool up. Not sure if it’s worth it with it being so incredibly obscure. Not impossible but it’s a long shot. |

what do u prefer. Molded elbow pads. or painted on.
im torn. Because on one hand. I like the molded pads hide the joints. On other hand elbow pads can look kinda bulky especially for the sleeves that are skintight in real life and can look a little more accurate painted on.
Also. whats ur opinion on the line not having a consistent aesthetic for removeable gear. ie; some being plastic some being fabric. There is a part of me that kinda wishes it was uniform and they were all fabric or all plastic.

Quick question:
If you look way back in my old posts from years ago you will find my top ten most wanted. Mattel has nailed most of my list over the years. Only missing ones are the Steiner Brothers, Mountie, and KoKo B Ware. I already know the status on Steiners and Mountie (no deal in place and not possible for Mountie). Any update on KoKo?

Is Undertaker with the kick pad attire a possiblity? 2005ish? Regardless, yes it’s possible. Versions of anyone under a deal with no legal issues with their gear is possible. For us collectors, wishing Mattel made tall kick pads for those Undertaker attires. Thanks for answer my question. |

It’d be great to have every era of Taker properly represented. |

My last question.
If you find out a wrestlers contract is almost done (or they're not resigning) do you try to release more figures of them, before their contracts are up?
Like the Revival for instance.

You guys have definitely kept your word about finding spots for cancelled figures. Any chance we might see that Brown suit Triple H basic repurposed somewhere?

Like the Revival for instance. Yes but it depends on the specific talent, if there’s compelling looks to be done and if it fits in our plans in general. |

I know it can be tough waiting after something gets bumped and we say we’re doing our best to make it happen. Keep in mind we plan way in advance and there may not be an available slot for a year or two at times. I’m currently working on 2021 product. That Triple H is tough though. Outdated look and a basic fig. My educated guess is if we decided to do Triple H in a suit again, it’d feature an updated look. |

We as WWE collectors appreciate everything you and the Mattel staff contribute to our obsession; you are all appreciated. As much as we have our own taste and opinions about collecting figures. We are all still FANS!! Thank You |

No update on Koko but if that changes we’ll get him in the line. Was there any actual work done on Koko B. Ware before he was replaced by Sin Cara in Elite Series 44? If so, and if he ever became available again, would Mattel revisit any original plans for that figure? |

Not a question, but thank you all so much for finally doing alternate heads and hands! They're awesome for those of us who pose and display figures, and I really hope there are more of them in the future! Also really happy to hear that the True FX is here to stay.

Will the Ultimate edition torso be rolled out to regular elites or will that torso style remain exclusive to ultimate edition figures?!

Would the Truth Commission ever be able to be made into figures (assuming if you had the rights), or would the political nature of the gimmick make them an automatic no-go? Would probably steer away from them. They’re really really niche also. Understood. I’m hoping we at least get a Kurrgan at some point though. Singles attire or Oddities either one. |
