I highly doubt it’s WM12 HBK. SDCC exclusives need to create some mainstream buzz even if it’s a mainline fig. No one is gonna be talking about a normal ass Shawn Michaels fig. Rock, Austin, Hogan, and maybe Cena alone could possibly generate some attention but HBK would not move the needle at all. I don't think Muhammed Ali moved the needle at all - nobody seemed to care, and I'd say it's questionable if Mr. T moved the needle either.... I'm not sure what else it would be with these hints. Ali was a bad buisness decision |

Follow up video Kyle said it was a legend and hall of famer Donald Trump??? That’d sell out bigly. I think Mattel is too far left for that to happen unfortunately lol. |

Maybe it’s HBK as Hulk Hogan. Kyle did go on a spiel on how it’s not Hogan and how it woulda been a perfect time to do Hogan since it’s the 40th anniversary. Maybe that was a clue as well. And the heartbreak and zip line was a hint at Shawn but not specifically WM12. Makes more sense to do that than WM12 IMO. I could see that doing decently well but I hope not, it doesn't need to be an ultimate let alone a comic con exclusive. I think it would do perfectly fine as a mainline elite or as a ringside exclusive |

I think it would do perfectly fine as a mainline elite or as a ringside exclusive I can see it as an UE. Walker, boas, bandana with wig, stretch Hulkamania shirt with the Hogan Knows Best logo, sunglasses, alt head with the bald cap ripped off and smeared spray tan. Maybe also include a normal head and an extra HBK shirt from that time in case you wanna display him normal in street clothes. |

It's not one I'd want personally but I'm sure it'd excite some folk on here |

Yeah I wouldn't give him a free sample for that. It's like being in the Mafia and telling something publicly that is confidential. I’ve been told nothing by Mattel or communicated to by Mattel in anyway as to SDCC and the figure. I am not on that list of people but I appreciate that you think I am Is sirpaul Kyle Styles? |

He may as well flat out tell everyone what it is, he has practically spoiled the surprise element for everyone without getting himself in deep water with Mattel by outright saying what it is.

Does anyone else think it’s WrestleMania 39 Logan Paul? He zip-lined to the ring, lost the match to Seth Rollins on his birthday (April 1st) and accidentally put his buddy KSI (in PRIME bottle costume) through the announce table. Can’t think of anyone else currently involved in WWE, apart from The Rock, with as much crossover appeal as Logan Paul. Kyle Peterson confirmed it was a legend and a hall of famer yesterday
A Legend and a Hall of Famer -- as in a two-pack. Or the person is both a Legend and Hall of Famer?

The person is both a legend and hall of famer, Steve Ozer confirmed it's only one figure I want to say about a month ago |

Now this would be a good sdcc but I doubt it will happen bc of it being a wcw movie I don’t think WCW has anything to do with it. They made Shockmaster a SDCC exclusive. I just don’t see them going after an Oliver Platt licensing deal for an action figure of a movie hardly anyone remembers fondly during an era of WCW no one was watching. If anyone from this movie were to get a deal and a figure it would most likely be David Arquette. Hardly remembers??? This movie was awesome and I can't say how many times I watched it growing up |

If it’s WM 12 Shawn, we’re going to need a Jose Lothario!

Could the HBK hints be really for DX Mike Tyson? He’s in the HOF and while it was two years after the zip line, it could have wider appeal and be something WWE collectors want.

Insult a bigot, and he appears. :clap clap: Anyways, I think Wrestlemania 12 Michaels is better than I lot of choices I’ve seen in the thread, but I just don’t think that’s who it will end up being. We have to be close to the reveal, right? Thursday |
