I'd always welcome more Austins in the Elite line... Would love this version ![](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQGdulDA3od5H4dg5s6x-6KLKC13Y477EJdRA&s) ![](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTmSVVO9n-AvV5brJ79KV5Voer5Hr_HCEH9OA&s) That shirt, Attitude belt, jean shorts The original elite that came with the god-awful plastic WHAT? shirt could get an upgrade Also we really need an Austin in jean shorts with the Austin 3:16 shirt...there hasn't been a "proper" one released yet People forget Austin had SO many cool shirts/hats, and changed his look up a decent amount. There's a ton more figures we could get. A top want. Love this look.

WWE Basic/Main Event series 152 - Liv Morgan - Batista - Ricky Steamboat - Seth Rollins - Stone Cold Steve Austin Other than Liv Morgan, this is really a weak lineup. They should be focusing on trying to get more new figures into the lineups who we have been waiting forever to get such as Andre Chase, Isla Dawn, Alba Fyre, & Duke Hudson. Even some updated versions of Akita Tozawa, Indi Hartwell, Nikki Cross, & Tyler Bate should be released. Everyone must have Austin by now and there is not much more you can do with his Stone Cold era so maybe they should focus more on Stunning Steve Austin if they want to release another Austin. Anyone want to bet that Batista is from the cancelled WrestleMania set? I think he was from mania 30

Guessing it’ll be a basic of steamboat in white. Curious what attire Rollins will be. Re-release or new deco? Somebody at Mattel loves the white Steamboat gear. I'm hoping we get the green ChiTown Rumble gear one of these days. Way overdue. I'm noticing a trend of Bill making a standard look white and the chase colorful. It's really annoying considering how hard these things are to find to begin with. Look at Pete Dunne, Shinsuke, Sandman, Becky, Carlito, Grayson Waller, etc. Please stop making the non-chase white/plain/lame. Thank you.

I'm still really surprised the only mainline Elite Stone Cold we got was the Elite 100 Stunning Steve. Elite 81 as well - coincidentally also Stunning Steve.

Yeah what is it with the lack of figures from one of WWEs top 3 stars of all time. Can’t believe he hasn’t had a Superstars figure or a second Ultimate. So many different shirt/Short/trunk options

So many different shirt/Short/trunk options I know they seem pretty resistant to ever make a street clothes Ultimate Edition, but I really feel (as said in above post) a really nice flashback jorts Austin is overdue. Have we even gotten one yet that isn't a specialty figure like the anniversary 4 pack and the Milk o Mania one? We really *really* need a stellar jorts Austin and, if there was ever a street clothes figure to release in the ultimate line, that would be a top pick for me.

There has to be a reason why they’ve made do little Austin’s the last 5 years. Especially when you look at how many Undertakers, Rocks and Cenas have been made

It’s not like he negotiates a deal per figure. If he’s under contract, they can make as many as they like.

I can't imagine he negotiates a contract to only do "X figures for X money" -- I don't think any toy contracts work that way. It's the overall deal, and/or a cut of all sales, I think.

Didn’t a certain someone tell us that a certain buddy said we would get a Legends Snoop figure?
Where is he?

Probably because you can't make certain vests and shirts of him with words like "SOB" or "BMF" or "Whoop Ass" or "Alcohol Fueled" especially with a big corporate company marketed to kids like Mattel. When they do release an Austin it's usually PGed down for that audience. For this reason we will probably never get an Austin with the exact vest he wore from Wrestlemania X-Seven, which makes it difficult to get up and running to build a roster for that ppv. Add that to Chris Benoit and Mr McMahon being on the ppv, letting Edge get away without making his attire from this ppv in at least elite form. They probably can't even get away with any vests or shirts that say "Hell Yeah."

The Championship Showdown Austin is good enough for me...Don't need an Elite or Ultimate for a street gear figure.
