Eric Bischoff is going into the 2021 WWE HOF so hopefully that means some sort of legends deal. I thought it deserved a thread here since so many people wants a figure of him. It would be awesome to get him and the Hall and Nash nWo ultimates to make the ULTIMATE nWo Mattel collection.

If they can get us Bischoff they will. AFA tried to fast track him last time but he left the company before anything materialized. I could see him being next years build a figure possibily but I would rather see him in the regular Elite or Legends line.

Hall of Fame inductions dont necessarily mean figure deals. Otherwise, we wouldve gotten Nick Bockwinkel, Antonio Inoki, Haystacks Calhoun, etc.

Yeah but that was due to a legal situation due to name and likeness rights. I’m sure he woulda been signed to a merch deal if it was possible.

So are all Legends deals virtually the same, all-encompassing between merch, video games, and figures? I thought I had read in the past that some legends deals include figures and some do not.

I think Hogan had a preexisting deal with storm that Mattel had to wait to expire before they could make figures of him. He’s the only one I know of that had extenuating circumstances.

I'd be down if they didn't make him a BAF.

Been saying for months that we need Eric Bischoff in the elite line so hopefully this is a step in the right direction. As we all know, it's certainly not a guarantee though.
I just need two Bischoffs:
His early nWo look with black or blue jeans, leather biker jacket, backwards nWo hat and microphone.
And his Raw GM look.

I don't see it happening. Unless he signs a Legends deal I feel like he'll remain without being under contract and continue making appearances like he has for AEW.

Bischoff would sell better than those other hof names that don’t have a figure. (Besides Jarrett and Liger who have other issues preventing a legends deal)
