I'm worried that some stupid detail will whip entire threads into a 25+ page frenzy.
Sorry, that's a spoiler, not a prediction.

My bigger worry is Walmart still having the better exclusives and being hard as ![](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/wfcensored.gif) to find

Rereleases and repaints. We need more first time in the line.

That they'll announce a whole NEW line of highly sought after/impossible to find figures that are exclusive to walmart. Or maybe that all of the currently available PPV lines are returned to being store exclusives or something. Or, I dunno, they'll announce a specialty line of Women's legends figures that they send one single case to one single walmart for every 100 mile radius.
I don't know at this point but that's my biggest worry. That somehow, someway, the walmart problem gets WORSE.

“Worried”? I wouldn’t say I’m worried about anything, but - reissues are killing the line slowly but surely, at least for me. The same stuff over and over! Add in the eBay exc, sorry Walmart / Target exclusives, and my guess is I’ll be interested in somewhere between 5-8 figures.

I'm worried that Walmart will have more exclusives. This nonsense needs to end. They've proven they cannot manage or distribute exclusives. I would like to never attempt to purchase another wrestling figure from Walmart ever again.
This is the only thing I am worried about regarding the "Con of Cons".

so i know most of us know this too but wal mart is shite across the board for all brands.
i also collect Star Wars Black Series and last year and the year before Hasbro partnered with Wal Mart to bring us Clone Wars Season 7 figures and some exclusive Mandalorian troopers. it was an absolute nightmare for everyone----to the point where Hasbro ALREADY re-released the Ahsoka figure from that in their archive line as they knew it was a disaster for everyone to try and get. Hasbro seems to have cooled off on really desirable wal mart exclusives for now but it could change at any given time.

With all the rereleases, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see SDCC 2018 again.

Im worried either Mattel blew their load at Mania or fans will be largely disappointed even with a good SDCC showing simply because this year’s Mania was probably their biggest showing to date!

Hey guys, we're less than a week away from the Con of Cons and we're finding it hard to sleep no doubt!!! We've had the thread where we all displayed what we would like to see or hope to see but what are some things you're afraid of seeing or not seeing at all??? Here's mine. 1 No Red and Yellow Hogans-I'm scared to death the Hogan Royal Rumble Elite will be from the contract signing and not one of his many desired Red and Yellow Rumble looks. Hopefully, Mattel learned their lesson with the two Target Legends warming the shelf while all the Red and Yellow and Black and White Hulk Hogans fly off the shelf!! This is the perfect line and time for this desired look and requested by the millions of Hulkamaniacs!!! ![](https://www.wwenetworknews.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/WWF-Royal-Rumble-1990-p22-e1672767900873.jpg) 2 Hopefully No Tatanka Ultimate-With all the needed Legend Ultimate looks such as but not limited to Booker T, Big Poppa Pump Scott Steiner, Lex Luger, NWA Dusty, Mr Perfect, Ron Simmons, a Tatanka Ultimate would be a slap in the face to all the Ultimate Legend collectors. 3 The Lack of Big Return- This one can't really be helped but to push The Con of Cons really over the top we need Fliar, Sting, The Road Warriors or Macho Man Randy Savage back!!! Don't ever disrespect Tatanka like that. I now hope the next dozen Hogans are based on his early Japan days. Maybe even one with a Ribera jacket chase. I would rather see LOD or Demolition back over Savage or Flair. Not that those guys aren't proven cash cows it's just that we've already gotten a good amount of figures for each where the others mentioned haven't seen a Mattel release in over a decade.

The endless amount of posts about “That’s it?” on Thursday afternoon and the “Where’s the soft goods?” about renders that never show soft goods.

It’s crazy that we still haven’t gotten a 1999 Chyna…and only a basic from 2000. I guess her WM 17 figure warming shelves scared them off.

Not even gonna lie, I'm cool with rereleases because it means that I can fill in gaps from before I started collecting again in 2018 or so. But if they started putting out SDCC figures in one of the rerelease lines I would be the happiest Shanie of them all because PLEASE GIVE ME SHOCKMASTER AND YANKEM

Mattel will announce that odd numbered series of Elites and even numbered series of Main Event will be exclusive to Walmart (Vice versa for Target)....Walmart will get the numbering system confused and try to order even numbered Elites and odd numbered Main Event figures and thuse the pegs will be empty and never stocked.
Ya know...Empty & never stocked...Like they are now.
