So now with MAD Fatu being made that makes 4 gimmicks for one person. Who has the most gimmicks made? MADFatu FATU Rikishi Sultan Brutus beefcake (barber) Zodiac Disciple Tugboat Typhoon Shockmaster Earthquake Shark Golga Kane Isaac Yankem Fake diesel Kama the supreme fighting machine The Godfather Kama Papa shango Ray Traylor is now up to three with Big Boss Man, The Boss, and Big Bubba Rodgers. The Guardian Angel might be too much of a deep cut to make it 4. |

Dissapointed that they didn't have Windham/Rotundo in the Legends line but hopefully we get them eventually.

Surprised we didn't get that one this year. |

Hogan has: Terry Boulder Pre-Hulkamania WWF Heel Hulkster Hollywood Hulk Still Rules (granted it’s the same old school gimmick with new attire but still felt fresh and different) Rip Mr America Ichiban (just because he had a unique look and wrestled a different style in Japan) And his modern day post retirement persona |

Mattel did not do Macho Man justice, sure they made a ton of figures but as you mentioned most were incomplete and did not include the necessary accessory (robe, shirt, jacket) that came with the costume the figure was depicting. Even though he is my favourite wrestler, part of me is happy they lost the rights and I hope they don't get them back as its clear they are incapable of making figures of him that are complete due to the lowly budget they have to work with. They have no problem going above and beyond for Hogan, exceeding the budget if necessary yet could do the same for Macho who was arguably just as popular as Hogan during the Golden Era. We only got one 80s Macho Man figure with a robe (2 if you include Mega Powers but that was a one-off exclusive), this was during the height of his popularity yet they couldn't give us at least 1 more figure with the trademark robes he wore at that time.
Macho Man figures need the accessories, without them the figure is just a poor representation of him and for me I say if you can't do it right don't bother making them at all. The head sculpts were also hit and miss, not as bad as the Bret Hart heads but most of them only had a decent likeness of Macho.

Is the showing of cm punk on macho man tribute attire a good sign of wheels being in motion? Or is it just a guy wearing pink and yellow and nothing to look into?

I just remembered and maybe they'll hold out for it somewhere down the line but anyone else surprised we didn't see an Uncle Howdy?
I would've loved to see the first version of him while Bray was still here. Hopefully down the line.

I’m guessing the Mene gene in the Warrior and Shango display is the upcoming main event two pack with Hogan? A little misleading with the picture on ringside showing him in wrestling gear but he’s actually suited?
Also concerned he looks extremely tall? They have him crouching down, bent heavily at the knees in the display, I’m guessing because they know he looks too tall?

Probably same head sculpt as well |
