they didn’t have enough time to do a new design/figure

MOD Undertaker would be great but I highly doubt Mattel have enough time to create new molds that would be required for MOD Undertaker. The Ultimate 11 LOD Undertaker looks likely to be rereleased since all existing tooling is available.

The worst Ultimate? Michael Jackson? I swear some of you only go off that first reveal and never even bother after that. Smh.

Not sure why people are upset over Taker. We all knew it wasn’t gonna be a new fig regardless. And simply just don’t buy it if you don’t want it.

To each their own but there's worse ultimates imo I was trying to think back and this is the only one I was really let down by. The heads are bad and the torso is really awful. Looks like a '90s alien movie costume in the torso. Its more of a compliment to the rest of the line than an insult to this figure. Think of the GREATEST HITS that could be made from the UE line. I think Taker hardly breaks top 10. UE 1 Ronda, UE 3 Finn, UE 5 Becky, UE 5 Cena, UE 6 Charlotte, UE 7 Hogan, UE 10 Cena, UE 11 Kane makes far more sense to me than Taker. Mr. T sells would say otherwise

I think people were hoping for an earlier or harder to find UE: UE3 Balor, UE5 Becky, UE5 Cena, UE6 Charlotte, UE7 Hogan... especially if they could update the torsos on Balor or Cena, as they already have the tooling (like with the recent GH Warrior). And re-releasing the UE7 Hogan with the added tan would have been cool.

At the end of the day I’m okay with them doing this - but I wish it had been Kane instead.

They should have just released the inverse colors Kane that came with the Attitude Era ring. But then people would have complained about that too because “muh figure value go down”.

they didn’t have enough time to do a new design/figure Yeah we know, that’s not the problem. The problem is they picked one of the worst figures in the line to reissue 98 Rock on the 99 body Hollywood Hogan with fixed pigment Series 5 Cena on the Series 10 body Kane with the fixed arm Another 80s Hogan These all would’ve been better options

I think more people would be mad that they paid $140+ for a ring they didn't want just for them to release Kane only a year later for $35. It would be a dumb decision on Mattel's part since the ring is still available on MC (would kill the sales of the remaining inventory), people that only wanted Kane would be mad they paid $140, and it could potentially hurt future sales/sets a bad precedent (i.e. why buy the Nitro ring for the exclusive figure if they are just going to release Eric Bischoff a year later).

Losing the Bray figure is really upsetting anyway and just another small part of the overall sadness as a fan.
Replacing it with that Undertaker figure adds to it. Terrible

Mr. T sells would say otherwise I think the Mr. T issue was that the character wasn't in demand, because the figure itself actually is super well done and over the top.

So we're basically getting 2 re-releases in the UE main line. Roman Reigns and Undertaker should have both been in the Greatest Hits line imo.
