An Elite 2 pack of Molly and Victoria from Wrestlemania XX with an alternate head and a barber's chair would be ideal.

It will never happen, but I'd love a Dawn Marie. The Al Wilson storyline was the most ridiculous, hilarious, out of control thing I have ever seen on television and I have a great affection for it.
I'd take her in a two pack with Lance Storm or a three pack with Justin Credible, but I'd prefer Al and Torrie.

Ive only been to one live event, and it was the Smackdown after Judgement Day 2001 in Anaheim. The main event was a 4 way tag team TLC match with Jericho/Benoit, Edge and Christian, The Hardy Boys and the Dudley Boys. Kurt Angle, Eddie Guerrero, Kane (whose pyro was terrifying live by the way), The Hollys, Spike Dudley, Rhyno, Trish Stratus, Terri Runnels and Ivory also appeared. It may have been the B show at the time but it was a who's who compared to today. I think Benoit broke his neck that night.

Liz with both of the previous heads, a new head with a smile, a gold skirt, a purple skirt and alternate hands would be a suitable Ultimate. Packaged with an updated pink/yellow Macho Man would be the only way I see it happening.

I work at Walmart, this position doesn't exist. If you can find the tag but no figures, get an employee to scan it and press the "item is out of stock" button on their phone/devices. This will trigger the system to order another case that will arrive within a few days. It will be on a pallet that makes its way to the salesfloor at about 9:30pm, that's the best time to act. There is a possibility that it wont actually get stocked and end up in a locked trailer, at which point it would be up to a low level employee to accurately scan and pick out the appropriate freight that needs to be stocked. The turn over rate of employees is astonishing, and inaccuracy is rampant. I just found a case of Fantastic Four Classics from over a year ago that was just sitting there. Thanks for the insider info! But shouldn't any manager at any Walmart walk past a shelf like the one I posted - and say "hey we have a problem here" - - - and act on it? It shouldn't be up to us as customers to flag down employees and ask them to scan individual SKU's.... clearly whatever system they are using to order stuff isn't working well at all. Isn't there a manager or an employee that oversees the toy department? At some point, don't they take a regular inventory? Does anyone check? Doesn't anyone at the corporate level look at sales & notice "hey this Walmart's toy sales have been down for months - maybe somebody should go & check the stock levels?" I just can't believe nobody at a management level notices this stuff. They've gotta be leaving revenue on the table by allowing these shelves to remain empty - and it isn't just WWE stuff that they're lacking. There is alot of effort thrown into the consumables (food, health and beauty, pets) because of the high volume of sales, expiration dates and the lower profit margin on those items. Toys are low on the priority list, and good help has been hard to find.

I question the decision to revisit Stardust as it was an atrocious gimmick that Cody hated himself. So bad it was actually the catalyst for his indy run, AEW run and his current comeback.

Goodfather would be an ultimate pegwarmer. In one of my many wishlists I had the thought that all 4 male members of RTC would make good BAFs. They have to be running out of suited/manager figures at this point. They would just have to tool the shoulders for the bare armed members, then Steven could just use the classic referee parts. I'd be happy just to get Steven, Ivory and Goodfather but Val Venis and Bull Buchanan would also be welcome. Something like... Royal Rumble BAF series Ivory (2001,2022) Sami Zayn (2023) The Rock (1999) Bray Wyatt (2023) BAF Stevie Richards (2001) Wrestlemania BAF Series Rey Mysterio (Wrestlemania 38) Mick Foley (Wrestlemania 2000) Edge (Wrestlemania 2000) Carmella (Wrestlemania 38) BAF Goodfather (Wrestlemania X-7) Survivor Series BAF Series British Bulldog (1999) Solo Sikoa (2022) Sheamus (2022) Bianca Belair (2021) BAF Val Venis (2000) Summerslam BAF Series The Rock (1998) Trish Stratus (2019) Roman Reigns (2021) Damian Priest (2021) BAF Bull Buchanan (2000) Boom. Get em all out in a year.

I actually stopped collecting figures all together when they cut the articulation back in 2017 so I never owned a single one until recently, when I picked up the Trish/Chyna CS 2 pack. Chyna isnt too bad, but I gotta say Trish is a piece of crap. The legs barely move, the paint is bad, and is pretty much only worth it for the head to swap onto her first Elite.

Torrie Wilson. Truly never thought they would get around to her or Stacy.

I figured Liv would be the next Elite female. Her MITB attire is the obvious choice (along with the title and briefcase) but I hated it. Too much going on. The pink attire that looked like lingirie from the tag team match she and Alexa qualified for it in is a much better choice IMO. Less is more.

Even without the name Gangrel, could a figure be produced as either David Heath or unbilled in a Brood themed multipack to get around the licensing issues?

Despite every female in the line being massive shelf warmers, they have all been welcome additions (except maybe that Chyna) and I have high hopes that Ivory, Jacqueline or Luna will show up in series 19.

I think a Draft series would be interesting. It could incorporate anyone drafted to any brand from 2002-present (when you need to sprinkle in a Cena or other big names in), and could give us nods to the JAKKS series too. Those series included...
Kurt Angle Undertaker Kane DDP Big Show Jericho Edge Ivory Raven Tajiri Albert William Regal NWO X Pac NWO Scott Hall NWO Kevin Nash Hollywood Hogan RVD The Rock Chris Benoit Lita D Von Dudley Bubba Ray Dudley Spike Dudley Steven Richards Maven Lance Storm Al Snow Billy Kidman Jeff Hardy Matt Hardy Billy Chuck The Hurricane
Alot of interesting names to me. Ignore the AEW signees/murderers on the list. They wouldnt be my first picks anyway. I would like to see them rectify the D'Lo Brown and Terri Runnels joke from the cardbacks.
4 figure waves with a BAF
Series 1
Kurt Angle Scott Steiner RTC Ivory The Undertaker
BAF RTC Steven Richards
Series 2
John Cena Raven Batista Spike Dudley
BAF RTC Milkman Val Venis
Series 3
The Rock Albert Brock Lesnar D-Lo Brown
BAF RTC Goodfather
Series 4
Triple H RVD Terri Runnels Hollywood Hogan
BAF RTC Bull Buchanan

123 Kid's head kind of looks like a JAKKS figure, especially with Taker having such great detail. I guess not all TrueFX are created equal.

Out of interest how can a company be sold if it's owned by different shareholders? If he holds the majority of the shares, which I think he still does, he could at the very least sell his shares to someone else, then that person would now hold the majority of the shares and technically be in charge. Also, didn't he get rid of most of the board, now it's just 3 people? He got rid of two, then the one that lead the investigation quit. The board is Vince, Michelle Wilson, George Barrios, Stephanie, HhH, Nick Khan and someone else I cant remember.
