Billy Gunn’s pants would go great with SDCC Mr T to complete that mashup look of him in camo. Ciampa had camo pants too but I assume Billy will be easier to find. Yeah I used those for mine. Gunn’s doesn’t look like it has the black elastic band on the bottom which I think would look better on T.

Elite 33 Elite 41 (123 Kid era) Flashback Series (Syxx era) I wouldn't consider any of those "lately." That's still more figures than many other Superstars have gotten.

He’s had some very distinct looks, and is part of two heavily desired factions. Frankly the only thing that bothers me is that he’s only had one DX elite and it was in 2000, McMahon-Helmsley Faction/X-PAC heat attire.

We still need 1995 123 Kid. Like badly. So hopefully they get to it. Feels like 98 DX and 95 Kid should have been first, then Syxx, then these other looks. But then trying to figure out how Mattel picks some of these attires is an exercise in futility, especially when so many of them are made up.

Has anyone considered that X-Pac won't be in red because they'll also want him to have black boots? Every one of his attires has kickpad designs on the feet so even if they choose an attire with black boots it will be visible

Not to mention Tugboat of all people got 3 in one year

Not to mention Tugboat of all people got 3 in one year Well one of those was a convention exclusive for Shockmaster. One was Tugboat. One was Typhoon. All different names, gimmicks and attires.

By that logic, one of these is an Amazon exclusive in NWO attire, and the other is a Target exclusive in DX attire, both of which are needed to fill out their respective groups. Like, don’t get me wrong, I get pointing out that it’s probably two Waltman’s in a calendar year, but they’re very different, both are needed, and both are exclusives.

Give me more 1995 1-2-3 Kid's and more WWF's 1995 roster in general

Every one of his attires has kickpad designs on the feet so even if they choose an attire with black boots it will be visible True, but the 99 attires mostly just have the tiny outline of either green/orange/pink around the black kickoads, while the 98 attires have full designs. Of course, there’s also the distinct possibility that not every one of these DX Army figures will be a 2-in-1.

Well if you were to say, at that time, "Are we getting more Fred Ottman/Tugboat figures lately?" the answer would be yes we are. My point still stands because it's two in a calendar year, and it will be his fifth elite overall in the line.

There are plenty of Waltman figures I still want to see...heel 123 Kid, Syxx with proper goatee (or clean shaven), the night after Wrestlemania 14 return X-Pac (to go with Best of Attitude HHH), 1999/2000 green and black singlet with DX jersey, and 2001 X-Factor X-Pac (preferably Summerslam 2001 attire).

I think Mattel has done a great job on Waltman so far... however I still want these elites: and then I will feel "complete"

As far as Waltman’s, I’m not sure why him having 5 overall figures is a bad thing when every one is from a distinctly different era.
