Do you think Mattel will make a NWO Elite 4 Pack with NWO X-Pac, Nash, Hall and Hollywood Hulk Hogan because that would be amazing all with their NWO Black and White Attires

No.
It would be cool but Mattel has a hard time selling bigger box items to retailers. Also the price point has been an issue on something like that in the past. They can sell them better individually, It’s been tried and tested

The logical way to do that would be
Elite 2-Pack
- Kevin Nash
- X-Pac
Ultimate Edition
- Hulk Hogan
Scott Hall already has the WrestleMania 35 Elite so he's already out.
And no, i'm not counting that atrocious Basic Kevin Nash.

This would be very low on my priority list if I were a decision maker over at Mattel. If Mattel gets the OK to make Hogan again then I would:
1. Repackage the DM Hollywood and figure out the quickest way to get it out.
2. Get the other canceled Hogans into lineups.
3. Hulk Still Rules
4. Mega Powers elite 2 pack
5. BATB 96 / Parade Debut Chase
6. WCW Hulkster in trunks
7. Mr America
8. White attire with 1985 belt
9. Rip with Andre belt on white strap SDCC Exclusive
10. Yellow and Red Ultimate Edition with different shirts, heads, hands, headbands, Big Green, 85, 86, winged eagle belts to recreate Hogan throughout the Golden Age of Wrestling.

Would be cool but I think they learned from the nitro notables set.

I would rather see one with Hogan, Steiner, Buff and Bischoff but I don't see Hogan getting back in the line anytime soon or those other names happening as well lol

No I doubt it. Hogan can’t be made yet so that’s still out. A 2 pack and then having a singles NWO actoss a few sets would be cool though. Kind of like how Jakks did R3?

So it's possible he's available now. Hogan already has a merch deal in place with WWE, but they likely need to wait until the conflicting Storm deal expires for figures. I think the upcoming Liz Elite will be pretty telling. I don't see them doing the Mega Powers SS '88 attire unless they know Hogan will be available. |

Hogan is involved in 2 of them |

I think elite 4 packs are not something Mattel will try again...at least in retail.

It’s crazy that they don’t sell. You have a price point if $50 for 4 Elites. Then take the AJ / Finn 2 pack and originally it was $40. And people seemed to not have an issue with that
I realize retail doesn’t even want those either, but I’m guessing they’re producing 2 packs for only Ringside and Amazon to sell, so why not try 4 packs again for the same customers

That would be a letdown, just because it's fairly similar to her other two figures. I could seem them doing the wedding dress and then putting a matching Macho into the Ultimate line, but that really feels like a niche figure to me when there are better options for both. |

I could see them making a few different Epic Moments 3 packs.

Im thinking the new Liz will be in either an nwo version with the short black skirt/dress or the leather pants or with her Wrestlemania 7 outfit.

Ya that would be so sweet if we got the Mega Powers as one of the 2 Legends elite 2 packs that are coming after the Styles/Balor one |

I would like a 3 pack with just Hogan, Nash and Hall from their WWF/E debut. That would look sick MOC.

People who picked them up on clearance for $12.50 made a killing on ebay. |
