I will love to have a beanie cap for Hogan with NWO written on it.

Ideally (opinion), a variation with the lightning tights, 'Hollywood Rules' shirt and 'Hollywood' bandana.

We need a 1990 Hogan at the top of the list. Python Power!! YES. Python Power, PLEASE. I have harped on this for YEARS. YEARS, I TELLS YA. No modern company has made this look. Never done by Jakks, never done by Mattel. It kinda blows my mind, honestly lol. When I think of the definitive Face Hulk Hogan, it will ALWAYS be Python Power. The image that immediately comes to mind was used in WWE 2K14, and on the package of the Hall of Fame series figure (despite being a completely different attire lol). But honestly, I feel like they could do an UE figure of this era and easily cover both Python Power and the equally as iconic HULK RULES attire. Really the only change would be his shirt and bandana. Hell, add in a blue w/ white stars bandana and they'd also cover WM 7. So there you go...that'd cover 3 different looks all in 1 figure. Top it off with a grinning head, a gritted teeth head, a serious/stoic head, and maybe even the 'pursed lips' expression when he Hulks up, points and says, "YOUUUU!" The cherry on top would be a real fabric American flag Agreed. If they added the image below (WWE2k14 Card image) as the main figure, with an extra Hulk Rules shirt and another bandana (preferably the Hulkster Rules bandana from SSL91), and the bandana he wore at WM7 (the blue with white stars) that we be an excellent figure. ![](http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-u2v50ICRdhw/UojnuVCZODI/AAAAAAAACxk/QxEpZbbC5GE/s1600/wwf_wrestlemania7_hogan2.jpg) Hasn't AFA said they dont have the rights to the big green belt? I think AFA already said Mr. America would never happen. I wonder why, is it to close to Captain America for there to be a copyright issue or is it something else?

Reckon it will be a βBill Special Hybrid International Totalβ Edition aka a βBillSh*t Editionβ, not just one look, but 2-3 combined cause god forbid we were able to pinpoint the exact event the figure represents... Get over yourself...you'll find life is much easier when you do.

To this day, I still do not understand why we can't get a Mr.America figure.
I've heard the Captain America copyright thing before, but it makes ZERO sense.
Since when did Captain America wear a sleeveless white shirt, tights with diagonal red & white stripes, white boots, a weight belt with text on it, and frigging red, white and blue feathered boas.
Even the masks...One of Hogan's was blue with the white star, but it was across the middle of his face, NOT on his forehead. His other mask was even LESS similar with the American flag deco.
Meanwhile, you got Rey Mysterio dressed as Marvel's Mysterio, Balor painting himself to look like Venom & Carnage, Alexa Bliss inspired by Harley Quinn, New Day had the DBZ Saiyin Armor, Rollins had Wolverine attire, Mustafa Ali had Iron Man inspired attire, and damn near everything Johnny Gargano has ever worn is comic book inspired. That's just to name a few.
Granted, not all of these looks have been made into figures, but A LOT of them have.
All I'm saying is that there has been a LONG history of wrestling attires based off of intellectual properties that WWE does not own, and a lot of them have been relayed into merchandise.
And in comparison, Mr. America has A LOT less to do with Captain America than the examples I listed.
If it's over the name, "Mr. America", then just call him Hulk Hogan and alter the text on his shirt and weight belt. I'd rather have that than no figure at all.

I just hope that they donβt try and stagger the releases of the attires we still need. After nWo we need: Hulk Still Rules WCW Hulkster Mega Powers Mr America BATB 96 Heel white attire Attire with 1984 1985 belt We need a 1990 Hogan at the top of the list. Python Power!! I will buy any and all Hogans, but Python Power is the Hogan I want most. Brother.

My preference would be Starrcade 97 to go with Sting. But in reality Ill be happy with any nWo Hogan from 97/98.
Later I would like a Wolfpac Hogan, 2002 Hogan, Mega Powers Hogan, 92-96 Hogan & BATB Hogan.

Im sorry but after the fiasco of the last time not getting Hollywood Hogan from Starrcade 97, if the first Hollywood Hogan we get having a 2nd chance ISNT that version, the entire design team should be replaced. Love those guys but that would be completely inexcusable. Would make no sense really.

I'd prefer just a general non-specific NWO attire. If he is in Halloween Havoc attire, the shirt won't look right without the TNT logo.

I would definitely buy a figure in this form, but Jesus Christ, the red shirt + that ridiculous skin tone makes him look fake.

Perhaps, if it was anybody else but Hogan, maybe Marvel would've let it slide. Since Hogan & WWE built an entertainment juggernaut & hundreds of millions off HULKamania, I could see why they'd be overly litigious when it comes to their American hero wearing a blue mask.
