Back in the Mid 90's right around the time that Hasbro was Dropped and Jakks started to release the BCA
I remember a Wrestling Magazine, possibly WWE talking about upcoming Hasbro figures and it was right around when the Green Card Figures started to pop up,
But I remember before they lost the Licence Hasbro was talking about a few guys who would have Hasbro figures
Jerry Lawler Dr. issac Yankem 123 KID Hakushi and someone else were supposed to come out
but for some reason i never heard anything else about this
is it possible

the story was that there was going to be a 12th series released on a orange card, rumour has it that they would have been owen hart (pink) bastion booger jeff jarrett mo mable lex luger (usa attire) diesel (hence the hasbro identical head that was used for the mannix knockoff)
i said rumor has it because none of this can be proved, in the 15 years since hasbro sadly stopped making these wonderfull little things, nobody has seen any proof that these were going to exist, yes we can all speculate but with no proof.
so if you still have that magazine or can remember what month or issue then please share it as it would be fantastic to know if they really had planned any other figures.

It was about a toy store in NY or NJ which sold old and new figures...I think when asked the store owner said he would like to see figures of the new generation such as Hakushi, Lawler etc... the Green cards had just come out & in this article it hadn't said Hasbro lost the licence. Not sure if this is the same article!?

Hakushi didn't show up in the WWE until spring of 1995 so no way he could have been in the hasbro line.
