Bit of fun - If you could create a new line what would it be and who would be in it? Doesn’t have to be realistic just a bit of fun.
I’d love a ‘legacy’ line
Buddy rogers Bruno Pedro (with era appropriate triple crown titles) Bob backlund with a 70s/80s wwf champ look
I bet the team would do some great write ups on the packaging

I’d do an Ultimate Edition PPV line for the big 4. Complete with box art from the ppv itself (kind of like the 90 Amazon Survivor Series Taker / gooker box art) 1 Ultimate released with each of the elite sets

I’ve noted this before in other threads, but I would love an LJN form factor ongoing line and a Hulk Hogan’s Rock n Wrestling sub-line, with animated style figures. For the LJN style, it could be a great compliment to the already great Big Rubber Guys line from Major Bendies, but including the talent from LJN era that only Mattel has access to: Hogan, Warrior, Hart Foundation, (Rockers) Shawn Michaels, The Bushwhackers, Mr. Perfect, DiBiase, Honky Tonk Man, Studd, Bigelow, Iron Sheik, Dream Team, etc. It can include those who didn’t get LJNs but should have, like Perfect, Bushwhackers and Michaels, as well as updated LJN form factors for those who did. And for the Rock n Wrestling line, I think most of the talent who were on that cartoon could still be options: Hogan, Andre, Hillbilly Jim(?), Albano, Wendi Richter, Piper, Sheik, Volkoff(?), Studd, Mean Gene(?). They would miss some for sure (Snuka, Moolah, probably others), but could get us enough to do a decent collection.

Similar idea, I'd like to see a bunch of territory era Legends or territory versions of people that went on to wrestle for WWF. Maybe throw in some tag team two packs like they did early in the Legends line. The list of names is endless but if I could put together a dream wave it'd be something along the lines of.
Harley Race Starrcade 83 Dory Funk jr AJPW Adrian Street CWA Bruiser Brody Bull Nakano AJW/WWF Kevin Sullivan or Luna Vachon CWF
Then for tag teams I'd probably want to kick it off with
Road Warriors Starrcade 86 Midnight Express Starrcade 86/GAB 87

Maybe restart the Hall of Champions line and use that to design and create new belts. The ones they have now are too bulky for the most part. A lot of lesser companies are making way better belts.
First Wave: Buddy Roberts - 1st WWWF World Title Belt Billy Graham - 1970s WWWF World Title Belt Ultimate Warrior or SSL91 Hulk Hogan - WWF Winged Eagle Belt Kurt Angle - Big Eagle WWF World Title Belt
Second Wave: Pedro Morales - early WWF IC Title Belt Tito Santana or Greg Valentine - mid 80s WWF IC Title Belt Razor Ramon - classic WWF IC Title Belt The Rock - oval WWF IC Title Belt
Not sure how they would do the tag team series, maybe 2 teams in one set:
Third Wave: Demolition Ax - classic WWF Tag Team Title Belt Demolition Smash - class WWF Tag Team Title Belt Buh Buh Ray Dudley - Attitude Era Tag Team Title Belt D-Von Dudley - Attitude Era Tag Team Title Belt
or split it up over 2 waves:
Third Wave: Demolition Ax - classic WWF Tag Team Title Belt Iron Sheik - 1984/85 WWF Tag Team Title Belt Jim the Anvil Neidhart - silver WWF Tag Team Title Belt Buh Buh Ray Dudley - Attitude Era Tag Team Title Belt
Fourth Wave: Demolition Smash - classic WWF Tag Team Title Belt Nikolai Volkoff - 1984/85 WWF Tag Team Title Belt Bret Hitman Hart - silver WWF Tag Team Title Belt D-Von Dudley - Attitude Era Tag Team Title Belt

A WWE debuts line of a big signing/comeback. Jade at Rumble '24 Punk @ Survivor '23 Goldberg in the leather jacket and jeans at his comeback on Raw after 12 years in 2016.

Debut Attires/Rookie appearances. It's self explanatory, but it has wrestlers in their first match look or their first match with whatever promotion. Ideally they would dive into the many dead promotions, not just their wwe/nxt debut look.

I want something like the Coliseum Collection but with Icon WM matches as the theme.

A Superstars Sub-line. One wave is all that is needed.
Superstars: Now (a WWE Shop Exclusive)
- Cody - Roman - CM Punk - Logan Paul (originally I had Brock in this spot, but he had to be replaced)

I liked the WMX Ladder Match two pack they did with Razor and Shawn, maybe iconic matches/rivalries/moments with toned down packaging to make it viable at retail or as an online exclusive.
Some of my personal wants
The Night The Garden Went Silent Ivan Koloff vs Bruno Sammartino for the WWWF World Championship
WWWF vs NWA
Superstar Billy Graham vs Harley Race
A Flare For The Gold Harley Race vs Ric Flair Starrcade 83. Probably couldn't do the NWA World Title which kinda sucks but the figures alone would be sick
Dusty Rhodes vs Ric Flair Great American Bash 86
Breakup of The Rockers Shawn and Marty with the barber shop window printed behind them
The Boyhood Dream Come True Shawn Michaels vs Bret Hart WrestleMania 12, probably would need to be in ultimate form to do it justice but it needs to be done

I really want a wrestlecrap/ out there gimmicks line. Unique neon 90s colors packaging to make it a fun can't miss nostalgic line. I know a few of these have been made by indie toy lines but I want them elite scale and Mattel quality and not costing 40 a piece.

Since the WM Basic line has been in somewhat disarray the last few years and since the Hall of Fame is the same weekend as Mania why not do a HOF basic line but in their HOF attire. I know it’ll be a series of mostly guys in tuxes but they could come with the HOF plaque and a hand with a molded HOF ring. Maybe make it a BAF where you can build the extra large podium.

Novel idea but looking at the attire, other than bobby heenan and a few others majority are all in black tuxedo. Cant imagine it can go very deep. Wouldnt mind that bobby h. In blue though....
