Official Upcoming Mattel WWE Figure & Lineups Thread

OK, I am bored, so diving in and taking a guess as to what we will see for the rumored Legends, based on what we know of who is (supposedly) signed.

Sandman - now rumored to be in Elite 111 so I am expecting at the very least renders, if not actual photos of him. He was added to the WWE Supercard game in November.
The Dudleys - No lineup yet, but rumored for as long as Sandman, and they do have those titles for sale too - Renders if not photos of these figures. Both were added back to the WWE Supercard game in November
Headbangers - We have known about these for (I believe) almost a year, so fully expecting to see photos of these. Both of these were added to the WWE Supercard game in November.
Muta - This one is interesting. I believe that he will be part of the line, but we may not get anything until SDCC. He has not yet been added to the WWE Supercard game, but he is part of the 2K download for the forthcoming game, and both are made by the same company
Raven - I would love this to be a surprise, but if this was a more recent signing, it may not happen until SDCC. There is no evidence of him in the WWE Supercard game or WWE2k24 roster
Brian Pillman - We just had the news about the signing at the beginning of February, so I am guessing we do not see anything on this until SDCC, at the earliest. No evidence in WWE Supercard or WWE2k24 roster.

The Steiners - Obviously we know they are signed, and have had figures already, but not the ones we want the most. I think we see these either at Wrestlemania or SDCC. What I find interesting is that they both debuted in the WWESupercard game at slightly different times. Rick debuted in November 2022 and Scott in February 2023. Rick had his figure first in Elite 104, and Scott a month or so later in Elite 105. Another interesting aspect is that in the WWE Supercard game, Rick's first two cards were both in the attire that is the same as his first figure. Scott Steiner's was also similar enough to his first figure that I would call it the same look. They did then have more cards in the summer of 2023, and Rick's were all the classic early 90s looks, and Scott had 2 Poppa Pump looks and 2 Classic looks. I am guessing we will see these two in classic looks in either the MNW line or the Legends line. Or maybe both.

CM Punk - There is no doubt in my mind that he is going to get the Cody Rhodes treatment as far as figures go. He just signed at Survivor Series, so his figures will not hit until next Fall at the absolute soonest - unless there is a way to pump out 'Best of' Punks somewhere - but based on what Steve has said in the past, those are not as easy as we would think. Regardless I am maybe expecting renders of his debut walk out at Survivor Series, or one of his subsequent appearances on Raw or Smackdown, classic Punk in the Legends line, the Greatest Hits line, and maybe the announcement of a CM Punk in the lineup maybe around Elite 115. I would then expect maybe at SDCC or even Ringside Fest, an announcement of an Ultimate CM Punk. OR - one other possibility is if they will do a Mattel Creations figure for Punk like they did Cody and Logan Paul. But have no doubt we will get some CM Punk news at Wrestlemania week.

Finally I went through the WWE2K24 roster completely to see who is in there that is not in figure form - not counting current wrestlers. If they are a current wrestler, we know that they are possible to be made. These are the roster members who have not yet been made in figure form.

These are Adam Pierce, Bad Bunny, Bobby 'the Brain' Heenan, Bray Wyatt, Cathy Kelly, Uncle Howdy, and finally William Regal. It has been a long time since we saw Heenan in the line anywhere and while we have Adam Pierce in the game, there is no Nick Aldis. Will we see any of these? We will see, but hopefully we get a William Regal soon, he is overdue.

As soon as I saw the Tama Tonga news, the first thing I thought about was the possibility of Haku being signed in the future. Another possible Huge get for Mattel.

King Haku in the Legends or Coliseum Collection line (I believe he was to have been in the final lost wave as “King” Haku, likely as a repaint), would be great! Pair him with black strap Andre or Heenan. Or, heck, with Hillbilly Jim to get 2 surprises in 1 sought after set!

Waiting on the monthly where are pre orders thread 🤣

around this time we’re usually getting new pre-orders and reveals. where are they at??? is rsc done with mattel? is mattel done with rsc? did wwe cut ties with mattel?? anyone know what’s going on???

I don’t see them doing another Ultimate black strap Andre.
