Eh, I'm fine with it, especially if that means more New Gen randos like Waylon Mercy or Duke "The Dumpster" Droese. I'm not even sure who the holy grail First-in-the-lines are for Mattel anymore. Owen? Tall order. Personally I'd love to see Ahmed Johnson and Al Snow. The other missing FTITLs are undercard guys like Gangrel, Adam Bomb, Crush, etc. - all guys I'd love to see, but The Goon isn't that far below them. And he's toyetic AF lol. A lot of collectors go back to years prior to new generation so ftitl like koko b ware, genius, Zeus, Dino Bravo, Hercules, barbarian, bad news brown, captain lou, Jesse the body, etc are still high up there on the ftitl request lists. I would love any/all of those guys... especially Ventura. Actually, I'm really surprised Jesse hasn't had a figure in 10+ years of Mattel... is he in WWE's bad books or something?

New Generation is definitely my preferred time period but I think it would be a bad move to focus solely on that era when producing these exclusives. As said, a lot of fans collect from the Golden Era or Ruthless Aggression Era only, so it would make sense to be inclusive of those time periods.
That being said, I always look forward to the reveals at Comic-Con. I have everything crossed that the big reveal isn't The Goon.

Goon and Strongbow are unexpected but I wouldn’t say shocking. To me shocking would be Steiners, Haku, Barbarian, Mr Fugi, Slick….

I’m not sure that “shock” is supposed to be a clue or not, but if they somehow found a way to do The Mountie with his shock stick, I’d be thrilled.

Only thing that would shock me, is a NXT, ring-attire Corey Graves. All the good stuff will likely be US exclusive, anyway.

I would have done a BAF elite series with all Canadian wrestlers (Hart, Trish, Canadian Earthquake, Edge etc) all in their Canadian gear and have the BAF be The Goon

They are Razor Ramon and HBK marks so that reaction in the video is probably something to do with them. Aside from what was leaked, I'm hoping they have a Hulk Hogan Survivor Series reveal that I'm excited about. • Asuka Ultimate from TLC 2018 • Finn Balor with the NXT Championship • Adam Cole from War Games 2020 • Natalya in black and White leather attire from Smackdown January 2021 • Jesse the Body Ventura from Wrestlemania 1 • Wade Barrett basic NXT commentary attire • Beth Phoenix basic NXT commentary attire • Captain Lou Albano • Rob Van Dam from Summerslam 2003 • Stone Cold Wrestlemania X-Seven • Shawn Michaels Wrestlemania 25 • AJ Styles Wrestlemania 37 and RAW tag title • Pat McCaffee basic from War Games 2020

I'm really interested to see if Jeff Jarrett's deal with ZST was exclusive, or just for the sake of the one off. I feel like if we're gonna find out, told or untold, it'd be today.

Who else took the day off? I've got my vacation day approved so I'm ready to watch the big reveals today! I bought some snacks and I'm wearing my favorite Hulkamania t shirt in hopes of seeing a new awesome Hulk Hogan Figure today! Just wondering if any of the rest of you are going to make a day out of it, hope each and every one of you see at least one figure that want!

I already saw Hall and Nash that I want. Would love a 97-99 WCW Luger!!!!!

Who else took the day off? I'm pulling a "work from home day" today. I'll try to watch the video, but with my luck I'll probably get a call or pulled into a Zoom meeting right when the reveals start. Then I'll have to decide whether to watch the video first or come to the boards and read all the complaining before I watch the video.

Who else took the day off? I told my boss that I wanted today off and he told me that if I took the day off that I would be fired. I no longer have a job. That's how much this means to me, so worth it!!!
