Chase DiBiase. I was able to secure one at a reasonable price but never seen it in stores. Rocky Maivia probably needs to be redone as well as 2002 Hollywood Rock. I know Henry is with AEW but doesn’t necessarily mean anything as far as legends deals. I wouldn’t mind a Hershey Kiss attire Sexual Chocolate. Diesel and Nash from E16 also probably should get re-released in some fashion. Now that they’re making UE WM7 Warrior we need UE WM7 Savage.

I personally have two but wouldn’t be upset if they put SDCC Sarge in the Coliseum Collection. Maybe pair him with Sheik in shorts which is another figure that probably needs revisiting.

Would love another shot at USA Lex Luger. PERFECT for an Ultimate Edition IMO. That UE torso they use for Cena/Batista would be perfect on a Luger. I'd love for Mattel to take a shot at making that teeth-showing grimacing Luger headscan that came on the Deluxe Classic Jakks figure. I'd like to see his Summer Slam 1993 look as an ultimate. New head sculpt with shorted hair. Add a tan, better gold paint, could also come with cloth good accessories (white t-shirt and red, white & blue zubaz paints or red, white & blue shirt and jeans from the body slam challenge). Maybe a new sculpted arm with the for the elbow pad to cover his "loaded" arm. If not a new sculpted arm, maybe they can add one of those sleeve things that came with the Zodiac figure.

WM7 and WM8 Macho Man. I still think the former holds up, but it's been over 10 years and a re-release wouldn't make me want the original any less. The original is the one Randy held in the promo video, that will always be special to Savage collectors. WM8 is just a bad face scan in my opinion, such an iconic look deserves an update with the advanced technology.

I think Piper and Orndorff deserve UE releases to go with the UE13 Hogan and Mr T. And I think Snuka deserves a proper in trunks & barefooted figure. Definitely would love both WM1 Piper and Orndorff as Ultimate Edition figures, but I don't see that happening. They can't do the Piper correctly because they don't have the rights to the panther T-shirt. Also, if they don't do Piper, I don't see them doing Orndorff. EDIT: Just thinking about it, they might do Piper and Orndorff as ultimate edition figures in the new Coliseum Collection line.

WM8 needs an updated elite or Ultimate. The gold on the figure looks really dull, needs to be shinier. If they do it as an ultimate edition figure, they could add the hat and jacket.

That ringside DX HBK desperately needs an updated release, would fly off shelves as an ultimate

It’s not a sports logo that I’m aware of. That said, I wouldn’t be upset if they made an altered version of that image where it’s similar but different enough not violate any copyrights.

Both would make a tremendous ultimate, but if I could only pick one I would choose WM8 and have WM7 released in greatest hits. WM8 with the winged eagle, soft goods top, jacket and his hat feels like it needs to be an ultimate to be executed properly. I highly doubt Mattel would ever do this, but a second top with Flair blood stains would be (chef's kiss).

Good choice for a do-over in my opinion. He needs a much heftier body. He was a massive man. If we are re-tooling figures, I think a shorter IRS is in order, too. So is a blonder Sid.

With coliseum collection doing LJN style attires in Ultimates, I’d love LOD to see LOD given how toyetic they are but I know that’s likely a pipe dream. An ultimate Piper is hopefully in the works, but I’m hoping they can nail the headscan

I doubt it would sell very well, but I wouldn't mind having another crack at Dean Malenko.....
I think he only had the one Elite release? It goes for pretty much online..... was there another version I'm not thinking of?

That RSE Bionic Redneck Austin could do for an upgrade. Would love to see it in the Greatest Hits line.

Snuka isn't getting a figure ever again Never say never. He was deemed incompetent to stand trial and as such never found guilty before he died. And they told us Razor was never coming because of his past. And they point blank said at one point Chyna was a hardcore porn star and would never be made by Mattel. And we know how that turned out for both. I think only Benoit is a hard no.

And we know how that turned out for both. I think only Benoit is a hard no. Yeah but once the case was reopened and he was charged, topped with the Dark Side of the Ring episode, he was presumed guilty in the court of public opinion. Was he convicted? No, but no one believes he’s innocent. Be like making an OJ figure.
