Also, I admittedly used to say “MOC” as a blanket term before someone smartened me up to the difference and I was able to adjust. I’m not asking an “entire fanbase” to change. I just want theman to change his trolly behavior and you’re essentially enabling him. Regardless, if he only said MOC here and there sparingly then that’d be a different story and something I could look past and forgive. He says it as a phrase in every post to troll us. He’s been corrected many times and decides to ignore us and continue with his ways. That’s troll behavior and I’m shocked that’s it’s been accepted and allowed to continue for so long. I say MOC becasue many people in the past have said "just buy the Elite 96 Hulk Hogan and put the title belt around his waist loose", the Hogan fanbase really wants that look Mint On Card to display, it would be a beautiful display. I love the Hogan figures coming but it's not a crime to want more just like all the very very same Codys and Romans we're getting. To each their own, I just looking for that last 3 Hulk Hogan looks we need MOC |

But they got it right on the Survivor Series headband, so why regress and go backwards in execution when it's something that Hogan fans will notice the flaw straight away. breal59 is exactly right. The headband on the Greatest Hits is simply the white HULKSTER headband from the Ultimate Edition done in red and yellow. It ain’t correct, and it looks plain wrong. Unlike the Survivor Series one, like breal59 pointed out. The red on yellow, and yellow on red, headbands are Hulk’s shirts torn and used as headbands, I believe. They’re not like the white headbands, which are cut and manufactured and sewn to be “real” headbands. Well I feel like the Mattel answer would be that the Survivor Series Hogan headband is too thick and clunky, and it probably fell off a lot. I wouldn't know, because I removed that terrible goofball head & replaced it as soon as I got it. But I do think you guys are being a little overly critical on this one.....   |

I don’t want to derail the thread of the Hogan talk but can I throw it out there for more HBK’s?! Preferably 95-97 era. Give him kneepads and stubble/beard. I don’t care if the box is mint or damaged or if he comes with a belt, I’ll just buy one separate if needed. yes! More post 95 HBKs in tights please Mattel 🙏 |

Melina has signed a legends deal as well! I'm down with that there's multiple attire choices for her but get ready for the updated WrestleMania 23 heritage rerelease coming soon in elite greatest hits I still cant believe Mattel never made a Maria Kanellis, even when her and Mike came to WWE, Mike got a figure, but she did not. I know she is not insanely popular. But I really would have liked to own a Maria Figure for my Shelf |

I hear ya about being too critical. However -! Mattel’s answer about it being too clunky would be wrong. Sure, it was too clunky for that horrible googled-eyed goofy head that should have never been approved. But it works PERFECTLY for an Ultimate 13 style head. See if you can find it in the two pics below.   |

I gotta agree on this one, especially when the headband is so prominently displayed directly next to the figure. I'm not a Hogan fan but that *is* kinda glaring. |

stormbreaker Not even about the hogans but that is a gorgeous bookshelf (for the books) and I literally own that exact same copy of The Complete Sherlock Holmes. However, I took the outer dust jacket off mine because it kept getting messed up when I was reading the book in bed. But some of those hardbound collections there are just beautiful. I have a mighty need for that Edgar Allen Poe tome.

After seeing that single knee joint Nattie I wouldn't be surprised if Mattel just re-released her old figures. That would be tragic tho cuz because her body and scale would be way off to the modern product and that face and hair mold were horrible. She deserves a fresh sculpt. It's kinda crappy that Mattel doesn't even touch the 2000s divas. Mickie in a skirt, Michelle McCool, Maryse, Kelly, Maria, Candice. They could all make great figures but I feel like Bill and the gang are so heavily focused on the 80s. Which is unfortunately before women were more frequently featured. So until they retire from Mattel I don't think these divas stand a chance. |

I wanna see King of the Ring 95 Shawn with the red boots and stumble and how in the world has Mattel not made his 95 IC win attire over Jarrett from In Your House? |

I never once asked for that banner!! The 3 Hulk Hogans I listed are the remaining ones I want Mint On Card. Can you please stop saying “mint on card” in every single post? It’s annoying and ridiculous on so many levels. First off, these Hogans would be “Mint in Box” not “Mint on Card.” Secondly, it’s not like Mattel gives you an option of buying them loose. They will automatically come sealed in box so stop acting like there is another option. I don’t mind you having a wishlist (who doesn’t?), but this schtick has grown old. The trouble I have with "Mint on card" is that it is a description of the figure, like if it was listed on eBay. "This figure is mint in package, brand new." A pose is not mint or non-mint condition. What theman is asking for is "Posed how I would like to see it, with accessories in place, in the box". |

We're clearly asking for too much! Those dang women don't matter. Hulk Hogan had 452 eyelashes in a backstage promo he did that one time and we have Hogan with 451 eyelashes, and one with 453 eyelashes but we NEED one with 452 eyelashes! That eyelashes is more important than any stinking female career duh! -Mattel design team |

"The downloadable content is set to feature several current names such as Nia Jax, Jade Cargill, Kairi Sane, Dragon Lee, Carlito, and Lyra Valkyria. Hall of Famer Michelle McCool is also set to be a part of the DLC." itrwrestling.com/news/wwe-2k24-dlc-4-update-new-release-date-announced/ |
