Any figure company is claiming that they’ll release a set of figure a month in mid to late 2021. Any plans to mirror this?

They put this on Twitter too so prepare for a ton of awful questions. Anyway
1. Why do young Rock and old Rock have the opposite torsos they should have?
2. What happened with WM22 Edge? It looked so good in the renders but looks terrible MOC
3. Can Hollywood Rock please be remade with an accurate torso and TrueFX?
4. Can the next Trish please include a protective face mask?
5. Could we get a European title on a green strap?
6. Can anything be done about the hand pegs that are mismatched colors? They look really bad. Perhaps default to attire colors instead of skin tone?
7. Have you asked WWE to resign some of the people in the original legends line we haven’t seen since? (Bundy, Martel, Akeem/OMG, Demolition, Von Erichs, etc)
8. If you had to pick a figure from the first 5 years of the line to redo with TrueFX, swappable hands, and possible attire improvements what would it be?
9. Are there plans for grey camo Adam Cole?
10. Can we get a Dusty Rhodes Classic trophy?

Mattel has an incredibly vast amount of molds and tooling over the 11 years of this line. Far more than Jakks ever did. Yet despite having all these different arms and torsos and boots, there seems to be an unwillingness to change people to more accurate parts.
Why?

Was a Cain Velasquez figure ever started on and could it still possibly get released in the line

We have seen a ton of Warrior and Savage figures over the years. Any chance we can get more love for Hogan and Flair to help them catch up?

Why do you guys rarely use different torsos and parts for guys? Like AJ has just been Daniel Bryan in tights for years. And you guys very rarely ever make new molds. The most recent was Ricochet a full year ago. Figures are just so inaccurate a lot of times

Will it be possible to get Ultimate Edition figures as Ringside Exclusives?
Will the double jointed arm articulation be implemented into the main elite line?
Can you improve the torso articulation on the ultimates to make them any more poseable? The diaphragm joint doesn’t seem to really make the figures more articulated than the reg ab crunch.
Why do the newer Rock Elites use the smaller torso and some of the flashback Rocks we’ve gotten use the jakked torso. Can that be corrected as Rock is more jakked today than in his wrestling days?
Do you guys anticipate on pumping out more Mattel Hogan’s now that he’s back? 2003 Hulkster is much needed!
Any plans to expand the Ultimate Edition to more than 2 figures per wave?
For Bill! In a 2018 interview with Ringside at the Las Vegas Toy Con you stayed you had to scrap 6 Hulk Hogan figures the day he was released. Can you reveal the figures you were working on now that he’s back under a deal?

Is DOD Wave 2 still slated for December or has that been delayed?
Can we see an nWo 3 pack?
During the Toysrus era it was much easier to find figures in stores as they would receive multiple cases of series. With stores like Walmart and target they seem to get 1 case at a time and order more as they sell. Are there any plans to improve distribution that will make it easier for collectors to find figures in stores? This is extremely frustrating for store exclusives.

With Hasbro’s success of their kickstarters campaigns can we see Mattel do something similar in the future? Maybe for the video entrance stage we saw a few years back?

Will elite Rhea ripely come with the up women’s title? And if so. Is it going to just be the uk title on a white strap? Or a new mold.

Can we see Elites get Ultimate Edition articulations (double jointed elbows, better torso) or will they remain exclusive to UE figures? AEW figures are the same price as Elite figures but they have ultimate edition articulation.

Can we see more shirtless Jeff Hardy’s and post match attires such as when he won the title at Armageddon in 2008?

Are we getting any new talent from the Attitude Era in future lineups? Any more elite Chyna's in the works? When will we get our Wrestlemania 14 Undertaker? Long overdue.
