If I understood the panel correctly, Taker and Kane are kicking off a UE spin-off line of Legends. If Iām not mistaken, I think we will be getting current stars and Legends in āseparateā lines.

You didn't understand it correctly. Target is getting an exclusive Legends Ultimate line, and Batista is the first figure in it.

Thought that was what they were talking about

It would require too many swappable parts for a 2-in-1 UE Mankind to work. Youād need practically 2 of every part and at that point you might as well make 2 separate figures. You need arms and two molded plastic shirts and thatās all. Itās no different than the UE Bret Hart, Edge, Fiend, Becky, Shinsuke. Basically any UE with a plastic jacket. Except you get two jackets instead of one. Road Doggās first elite came with two shirts. And each pair of arms gets itās own hands. And if possible, you include two heads. I donāt know where youāre getting āYou might as well make 2 figures!ā The torso, legs, and boots are the same. 1997 Mankind and 1998 Mankind wore the same brown tights and black boots. The only thing that changed was the shirt and the wrist tape. 4 arms (2 left, 2 right), 4 hands (2 left, 2 right), 2 plastic shirts (brown and dress). Boom. 1997/1998 Mankind. Well, no need to be facetious lol. Mankind in 97 had signature boots with the straps and button looking things on them. He wore plain black boots a few times with the brown attire, but itās not very eventful. I mean I guess you could do it, but it would be a bit of a mashup.

I'd imagine if they did a Mysterio they could just stuff the box with 10 different heads. that wouldnāt match the attire? I know someone would mention it

I agree on Mankind Andre the Giant (heel suit from wm3 through 4 era) Razor Ramon (wmx with ladder and two ic titles) British Bulldog (summerslam 92) I heard a rumor about Mr t and hogan. Would be cool to be wm1 era finally I would also like to see Iraqi sarge from royal rumble 91 Macho King from his coronation Attitude era mr mcmahon with three awesome head sculpts to pose next to Austin Honky Tonk Man with a really detailed and gemstone covered jumpsuit and pre splintered guitar Legion of doom (if they get the rights again) summerslam 92 with chrome gold shoulder pads. Definitely tongue-out hawk face. Demolition (also if they get the rights back) with the chaps to go along with the vests I like these choices. Iraqi Sarge from RR91 would be the best choice, definitely needs to come with the purple strapped WWF title, headdress, helmet and swagger stick. Macho King from the coronation would be cool, but he had so many great attires from his Macho King era that would be great. WM6 attire (w/ crown, scepter and entrance jacket) and when he wore the attire later in the year with a Macho King shirt and hat. Honky Tonk Man would be great for this line, I'd go with either his white & gold jumpsuit or his blue green jumpsuit. They also need to do different tights, they always seem to do pale blue. LOD from Summer Slam 1992 would be good, personally I always liked their WM7 attire. Demolition with the chaps would be great. Plus updated head sculpts and different face paint. Maybe from Summer Slam 1990. British Bulldog from Summer Slam 1992 seems to be the most likely choice, it was his most iconic moment. Though, I wouldn't mind he face run in late 1994 w/ a larger torso and new head sculpt. Though, for Razor Ramon, I would prefer a more colorful attire maybe from RR94 or SSL94. Andre the Giant in his suit would be a good option. Other options: Bret Hart - Survivor Series 1995 w/ WWF Title and suede jacket. Dusty Rhodes - WWF run, multiple face scans (one serious looking face), w/ multiple shirts (traditional black, yellow), and maybe with the night stick and cop hat from his feud with Boss Man. Shawn Michaels - IYH 2, entrance attire (hat, glasses, ring jacket, chaps). Ultimate Warrior - IYH vs Goldust, entrance duster w/ bowler hat and cigar. Who do I want to see? Ken Shamrock. But he doesnāt have enough accessories or the popularity to necessitate an Ultimate Edition. Koko B Ware. Heād be real cool. He can have Frankie relaxed. Frankie with his wings out. A stand for Frankie. A cloth jacket. Swappable heads with different color hair styles. Instant purchase for me.
But these are the reasons I donāt work for Mattel. That is an interesting idea. Never thought of having different reactions molds for the bird. Also need the bird stand. Personally if I were to choose, I'd go with WM6 version. I like that attire. I wouldn't be mad if we got an Ultimate Mega Power Randy Savage... Definitely yes to this. This should have been one of the elite 2-packs. They need to do their looks from Summer Slam 1988.

that wouldnāt match the attire? I know someone would mention it They could do a ripped mask and or have an open mouth and closed mouth head. I wouldnāt mind a Rey, but the only look I think would be special enough for UE is One Night Stand with the Robe and title.

It's time for them to up their game. WCW attire then you run it under cold water and Bam WWE attire š

I'd like for them to round out the major Attitude Era players, and get another shot at Shawn, Hunter, and Rock with butterfly joints.

I would be ecstatic if we got a Chyna UE figure. Absolutely over the moon... as long as it isn't in the Target line. (Again, some of us don't have a Target and would like to be able to acquire these figures at a reasonable price.)
I'd really want to see an IC champion Chyna from her main run. Give her one of her iconic black attires with both a down-hair head and a ponytail up head. She absolutely must come with the belt and, I dunno, throw in some extra hands. If you want to get crafty, give her her rocket launcher.
I would gladly buy two of those, one for MOC and one for loose.
Also on my list for UE wants is Mankind (white shirt/brown pants, I don't need a 2-in-1), Attitude Era Vince in Suit (but ONLY if we get a proper headscan and correct proportions), And a demonic Alexia Bliss. I know we are just on rough renders of the Alexa UE but if she isn't in her demonic attire, I have no use for her especially as they are including headsculpts for both her "Friend" and "Fury" personas.
(Note: I kind of hope that the inclusion of all three headsculpts hints at the figure being from her match where she took on all three characters and that we will be getting cloth goods attires included for the other two which go over the Goddess sculpted attire. It seems like a bit much to ask for in one figure though so I have a terrible feeling they're just going to have the sculpted Goddess attire and throw in the Friend and Fury heads)

I know alot of people don't like the new Alexa but for an ultimate figure her new persona is perfect. I don't need another older Bliss figure and don't feel there would be enough there to justify making it.

Ultimate Edition is probably a great way to sneak in some figures that were RAC exclusive. Another nWo Macho would be an excellent figure. Maybe with a collection of shirts and bandanas. Some gloved and taped hands.
An all-pink Bret Hart is desperately needed. 2002 Kane with molded mask head would be great down the line especially considering how hard to find the Decade of Dominance one was. If they ever get the rights to him again, SES CM Punk would make an excellent UE.

After Chyna Wrestlemania became a peg warmer worse than Bobby Heenan in many Targets, I can't imagine they would make a Chyna UE figure.

I was quite surprised that Chyna's first figure wasn't an Ultimate Edition, actually... it seemed a natural fit (a much-requested FTITL figure/Legend in a premium line). Make it the only way you could get her - then after a while, release the DX 2-pack and Wrestlemania figures etc.

Really could use an Eddie. Honestly with as loved as Eddie is by fans and wrestlers alike, itās surprising how little figures weāve gotten of him. I mean itās seems like Warrior gets a new figure every couple of months. You telling me we canāt get more Eddies? He's just not very toyetic. you are not very toyetic š
