I’m waiting for a Rerelease of Narcissist Lex Luger. Hopefully it’ll make in legends greatest hits next year.
123 Kid needs some updated attires, M.O.M Mabel, I’m really hoping Savio is under a deal. Adam Bomb and Kona Crush might be at the top of my New Gen wants…I just don’t see them being under a deal for awhile. Max Moon would be incredible.

I’ve been filling my New Gen ring with people who I think represent that era. When it comes down to it, I feel the New Generation era runs from Bret winning his first WWF world title, to when he lost his last one (Survivor Series 1997).

Arguments can be made for WM13 or Summerslam 97 being the end of the new generation. By the time Montreal happened the WWE were months into the Attitude creative direction. WM13 double turn might be the beginning of the end of the new generation, but Summerslam 97 and Shawn turning heel and forming DX was the nail in the coffin. Both of your posts are spot on 100% in my opinion. I just think there was way too much Attitude for most of 97 to consider it still the New Generation. Definitely a transition year but leaned way more towards the Attitude Era

Bret Hart in a pink drip singlet. I honestly don't want anymore Bret Hart figures in my collection though. Hunter Hearst Helmsley with his stick accessory. We still haven't got a Diesel Power logo in a single singlet from Wrestlemania XI figure. Other than that....Bearded Yokozuna. Then we get into territory like King of Harts Owen. That will never get made. What else? Hakushi? That would be a toyetic figure. He isn't signed though. "The Dean" Dean Douglas would be a colourful figure. He isn't signed either. Really not a fan o this timeframe of wrestling though.

This is my era. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but this is what I grew up on and this era solidified my Fandom.
I also like getting figures from this era because I lived through those dry years of almost no WWE merchandise in stores. Mid 90s were the height of my childhood figure collecting. I was pretty into Marvel ToyBiz stuff at the time, but my other hobby, wrestling, had nothing. So I like getting Isaac Yankem or King Mabel because I always imagined how cool it would have been to have official figures of those guys back in 1995.

Highly unlikely but Aldo Montoya would be crazy. They signed Sandman so it’s not impossible I guess
