Hi Does anyone know why Bret hart from series 3 was the only one in the single line to have writing on the saying from wrestlemania? Seems odd it was the only figure released that said which match the attire was based on. Could you get this figure without the wrestlemania text on the box? thanks for any info.  |

I've never seen one without personally.
and just a guess here, they were trying something new - maybe jeremy thought it would be a cool bonus for some of them to have the attire matched to a famous event listed, but the idea of keeping costs down maybe they saw it as an unnecessary change.
They have to keep the creation price low so the store price can remain lower, and this would mean they would have to edit every single CS single box with raised letters and potentially lower profit/raise prices and with the line still kind of unknown how successful it would be (Remember they had this idea was FS4 and it was shot down), it was a gamble they didn't want to take.
When we are talking 10,000 plus pieces even a 15 cent change per piece (Numbers all made up) can make the difference between losing money and profit
Later on, certain figures with High price points like exclusives and 2-packs, or after the classic became proven to be a money maker they had it on some other packages, so as for the early bret above is my guess as to why it wasn't a permanent thing
