I must have gotten lucky the few times I've gone there. I got the Bella Twin bp for 30 (which is at least 20 less than I have seen it on eBay for) and got both the Elite AJ and SDCC Undertaker for 18 a piece which didn't seem too bad. I've only been there a few times though.

are there any decent stores around here with older figures? Comic shops, collectible stores, etc? Even if the prices are jacked up I don't know how close to Allentown, PA you are but there is a place up there called the Merchant Square mall that is like a flea market. They have 2 shops there that sell wrestling figs. The store downstairs sells a lot of mattel and has some jakks. They have kind of high prices but the guy is usually negotiable. The store upstairs is called pro wrestling world and they have boat loads of older jakks figures even as old as the hasbro figures. Not sure how far it is from you but it might be worth the trip depending on what you're looking for. I've never left that place with nothing. They also have a pretty small but cool wrestling museum with a bunch of signed wrestling gear and such.

Can't believe I forgot Gangrel! Too Cool and the Headbangers would make a couple of nice flashback battle packs!

Does anyone think we'll ever get a Dude Love figure? They have every other version of Mick Foley (if they ever release the debut Mankind) and would certainly be nice to complete the collection.

Any BAF referee would work as mattel has yet to actually make one. Or a BAF Brad Maddox with an extra referee shirt like the BOPPV Shawn had. I would love to see some old school managers like Mr. Fuji. My Yoko figure would look awesome next to a Mr. Fuji. Would like to see Bobby Heenan too, he's a legend in the business and more than deserving of a figure.

I think this would be just a collector thing and judging by the time it took to get rid of the Mattycollector stuff (even now still on sale at rsc) and the failure of the legends series on its own we probably won't get anymore collector related sets....:except for those McFarlane statues. An Nxt set would be cool even some NXT guys in an elite every now and again would be cool (like a dean ambrose nxt flashback)

I agree with Nate B we need another Elite Divas belt. The all pink basic one kind of stinks. I would love to see a Summer Rae figure especially since Fandango is due to come out in Elite 27. Nattie, AJ Lee, Stephanie, and Lita would be definite buys for me. I would like to see some older Divas as well (Torrie Wilson, Stacey Keibler, Jacqueline, maybe even Mae Young!!) it's also a shame Kharma didn't stick around because her figure would have been awesome.

In no particular order here are some flashback figures I hope Mattel makes in the coming years.
1. The Brooklyn Brawler 2. The Godfather 3 The Natural Disasters 4. TheFabulous Freebirds (even in a basic 3 pack I'd buy these) 5. A few Hogans ( Hollywood, Hulkamania and I think a Mr. America would be sweet!) 6. IRS 7. Doink the Clown 8. Bob Backlund 9. Bobby Heenan 10. Jim 'the anvil' Niedhart 11. Goldberg 12. Scott Hall / Razor Ramon 13. Luger 14. Ken Shamrock 15. Ron Simmons
