Time to start predicting/wishing for Wave 3 for Ultras? I can start it. Gorgeous George - Originally rumored for Series 2 and since Series 2 did not have a wrestler from the 40s-60s, this seems like a good choice Ivan Koloff - Again long rumored for Series 2 and is a much needed figure to complete various lines Nikita Koloff - Perfect tag for Ivan, and also a rival for Series 1 Magnum TA Nick Bockwinkel - Another who is overdue for a figure and was the face of the AWA for a good part of the 70s/80s David Von Erich - Time for another Von Erich, and he has never been done in figure form - but I could see them switching him and having Kevin in place due to the Iron Claw movie Andre the Giant - Known name, he is a shared license everywhere, but a big hair, 70s look, would be ideal. More of a wishlist than a true guess but Adrian Street-Painfully underrepresented in figure form, id personally prefer to see him from Mattel so I can get some soft goods but he's an easy buy on my end. Feel like his passing might also drum up some hype around new merch. David Von Erich-They already did Kerry and seemingly have plans to do the core brothers and Fritz, seems fairly likely and another must have for me. Ivan and Nikita Koloff- Spot on pick there I would love to have those two as a team, also gives me more justification to go back and grab Magnum TA Any of the Freebirds- Doesn't seem like Mattel is in a huge rush to pump them out, Micheal Hayes doesn't seem too likely but id gladly take a Buddy Roberts, Terry Gordy, or Jimmy Garvin if they made them. They'd pair nicely with the Von Erichs too Kevin Sullivan-I know zombie sailor had a retro scale figure not too terribly long ago but he's not a name that seems to come up super often anymore and I feel like Powertown would pull of a CWF look perfectly, fingers crossed on a Luna Vachon and Lock figure at some point as well. Complete wishlist pick on my end but I'd also love to see them do Bull Nakano, I am begging literally anybody to make an articulated non retro scale Bull Nakano figure |

Finally, I wonder if face Nikita is a future possibility? |

Finally, I wonder if face Nikita is a future possibility? I honestly didn't pay much mind to the cardona figure so I had no idea, I hope they stick with cloth goods from here on out. I don't see any reason they couldn't do multiple versions of anybody so long as they have access to their likeness. I mean it's a relatively new line so it might be a while until we see repaints but they don't seem unlikely |

David Von Erich is worthy of a figure & what better time than now.
Throw in Kevin and we already got Kerry. Those are the 3von Erich we need. Maybe fritz later on.
I’ll take 85/86 nwa eta of Nikita Koloff, rock n roll express, Arn & Tully

I preordered him yesterday or the day before from RS I preorder Gordy just the other day too, very excited to get him. I'd just like to have him and the other free birds in scale with the Von Erichs so if Powertown is giving us the Von Erichs I need them to do the freebirds as well. Something tells me Mattel won't be doing Buddy Roberts or Jimmy Garvin any time soon. I also suspect Mattels release of Terry Gordy won't be coming with a freebirds vest which is a bit of a let down. |

First look for the Remco Missing Link figure. Not bad. Any news on how these compare to the WWE Superstars figures, size-wise? |

I just ordered their Lou Thesz figure, I live right outside of Louisville, KY. Any approximations as to how long my wait might be?

Of the Remcos announced, Bockwinkel is the one I want to see made into an Ultra the most. I want all of them as Ultras, but Bockwinkel is the top of the list.

Every time a Remco gets shown, the global reaction is "I wish this was an Ultra" ... what does that tell ya, Powertown?
