http://instagram.com/p/CZ2SosHqF9Q Anyone know if this is real life ? If so I paid way too much for my HBK  I’m new to the figure community my son has played for years but really just started keeping some for my own this year and was drawn to the UE collection. Has Mattel done Re-releases before ? I know there are multi of the same figure in the same attire or close to it but I always assumed once it was gone it was gone in terms of the same figure packaging etc. Thanks |

I wouldn't want a straight rerelease, but I'd love to see them updated with the current articulation.

I always trust people when they say "word on the street" without any actual proof.
Unless Steve comes out and says it, take it with a grain of salt.
Personally I don't see them straight re-releasing unless they're doing some kind of "Top Talent" line for the UE's.

I hope so, I need that hbk. Some figures should be re released for new collectors.

I collect the belts, so I'll need that Brock for the redder Universal Title.

I personally don’t. Give us new attires if anything. The smiling HBK scan is not that great to begin with even after a hair repaint. I want a DX in your house Ultimate. The ringside ex was a true disappointment.

New attires please. I don’t care about how much I spent on the two, but prefer new figures to add to the collection.

The only way I see a rerelease is if it's used as a stop gap for something. Kind of like the "lost legends" wave.

I hope they mean it as another production run of it as series 4 (or whatever series it was). Would be kind of weird to straight re-release them as a “new” series.

Just another run as-is of the old wave. It’s not in place of new figures. The previous run was pretty low and there’s was a lot of consumer and retailer interest so we’ll do one last run to fulfill the requests. Plus it’s a great way to get a great Brock out quickly now that he’s available to us again while we continue to work on a modern Brock. |

I’d be kinda bummed if they do Bret after I paid eBay prices for him 😂
But my god if mattel would reissue some of the most expensive figs out there (DM Bret, 96 Jake, NWO Macho) it would be great for collectors.

Mattel won’t straight rerelease these figures because that would piss a lot of collectors off. They might tweak the packaging and a figure a little bit but you’ll definitely be able to tell which figs we’re the original and which were the rerelease.
