I’ll get Bam Bam and sell off my then and now version then. They should rerelease that black and white RSE Macho too while they’re at it. Dont think they will ever rerelease a Ringside exclusive 😅 50% of wave 1 were store exclusives, why would RSC be off limits if Target, Walmart, and Amazon exclusives are fair game to be re-released? |

To be fair, that was released about 3 years after the RSC one - and had a different head and shirt. They have pretty much re-released RSC exclusives before though: 2011 Kane... 2013 Cactus Jack... 2015 Shawn Michaels... |

Yep, the flashback Brock. I remember a lot of us paying the $30 something price tag only for it to be released a little while later for way cheaper. |

Mattel should have gone all in and made this set… Harley Race DM Bret with Pink Attack as variant Ultimate Rock (AE era version) Granite Lightning Warrior Red LOD Hardcore Kane SES Punk (yeah yeah I know they don’t have the rights) Straight re-releases with no change whatsoever to accessories or packaging. Available immediately for 19.99 everywhere. It’d be worth it for the lulz. I wish so hard that the SES Punk can get re-released some day. A lot of people who left WWE and had bad blood have come back and resolved things, so hopefully he does too so we can get some more figures, lol. |

I would love another crack at some rsc exclusives I missed out on. Macho King, pink jacket Bret, king of the ring bret, real American Hulk Hogan. All four perfect for the line. If even re-produced and sold exclusively by rsc at the regular price I would be so happy to finally have them.

It's not the most auspicious of starts for a greatest hits wave, other than 1996 King of the Ring Jake Roberts, which hardly anyone was able to get due to the horrendous distribution for Flashback Wave 3. They should be re-releasing Harley Race. I don't think they have the rights anymore... they'd surely have released him again by now. It's all speculative. We don't know exactly all of what they don't have the rights to at a given time. They couldn't make WCW title belt accessories before because they didn't have the rights to the designs, or so I was told. |

So I'm not sure it really counts as a re-release... there's only so much you can do with a black trunks Brock, lol. |

Oh, it's all speculative for sure... it's been nearly 4 years since that Flashback S3 Harley though - so I'm sure Mattel would have re-released it by now if they could have. Especially since they've been re-leasing plenty of other figures (Legends and Greatest Hits) and limited released figures (UE 4). |

There are plenty of guys they haven't gotten to re-releasing they likely are able to. |

I don’t think they would’ve re-released the Flashback Harley so quickly, but if they were able to I do think they would’ve made another Harley.

Because ringside is the absolute premium partner and retailer for Mattel. I dont think amazon or target cares what they made with their exclusives but i think ringside would care if their exclusives would be 1:1 rereleased. But thats only my opinion |

There are plenty of guys they haven't gotten to re-releasing they likely are able to. Mainly because Mattel know that whole Flashback 3 wave had a VERY limited release... and everyone has been going mad for Harley ever since. Plus, they've re-released Steamboat and (forthcoming) Jake from that series who both already have multiple figure releases... there's no way they wouldn't have also released a FTITL legend like Harley too if they could. (Just my opinion, of course!). |

But thats only my opinion I know this is an RSC board but I promise you Mattel would dump RSC in a heart beat in favour of Wal-Mart, Amazon or Target if they had to. There is no universe where RSC is the "absolute premium partner and retailer" to Mattel when they are partnered with actual mega corporations. RSC is a big deal sure, but compared to the other 3 they are small potatoes and I don't think even RSC would disagree. |

But thats only my opinion RSC may be a valued partner but they’re 1 shop in 1 location with 1 warehouse vs Amazon, Target, and Walmart who have thousands of locations and hundreds of warehouses. I wouldn’t necessarily define them as their premiere partner. RSC needs Mattel more than Mattel needs RSC. |

There are plenty of guys they haven't gotten to re-releasing they likely are able to. Because Steve has been very vocal about wanting to get that back out whenever they have the opportunity. Also at the very least there woulda been a gap in his deal because any agreement would be null and void upon his death. |
