Even though I was never a Hogan fan you have to have a figure of him to complete your collection. Plus it would be killer to finally own the Mega-Powers. Especially after seeing that amazing Andre & finding EG Dibiase.
Same could be said for Flair. But he's a little easier to make a custom of. I got a Jakks head and robe waiting to find a Funk.

agreed. I think they are fun to watch on TNA but I rather watch Mr. Anderson and Pope promos than a flair and hogan promo that i have seen for YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS! so yes I wish Sting, Flair, Hogan, Nash and foley would all leave so we can get mattels of them. Jarrett is the only one because he is the founder of TNA. that's like Triple H leaving WWE to go to TNA. Is Scott Hall & X-Pac still in TNA? We need figures of them too. Pac got hepatitis C and left like 3-4 months ago and Scott Hall got busted for drink driving and supposedly punched a cop and got sent to jail. so yeah they're gone from TNA.

Wow aren't you a rebel? lol, i know right? Mattel makes better figures than Jakks ever did... but i do love my CS figures! Figures...better isn't a word I'd use. Accessories, absolutely! As far as Mattel and Jakks signing the same guys, i think it is possible (in the case of Andre). But I think a lot of it depends on whom and what kind of contract is signed.

Like I said before, I wouldn't be shocked if they released Hogan in Mattel form. I would be surprised, but I wouldn't be shocked. I am a Hulkamaniac for life and I need a Mettel Hogan for the Legends collection. Hogan and Vince have a very odd relationship to say the least. One day they will have a chat and the relationship will be good, then we may get the Mattel Hogan. I still want my Mega Powers 3 pack. I would take any Hogan, actually.

We will see what happens - I believe the Mattel/WWE contract is for 5 years, January 2010 - December 2014. Hogan's contract with TNA started in January and is most likely for 1-2 years - Hogan likes the shorter contracts. When that is up, I fully expect him to re-sign with WWE - at least with a Legends type of deal, giving them the full ability to make all sorts of Hulk Hogan figures - Classic, Mega Powers, NWO, etc. In fact, for the NWO they could easily sign Scott Hall and Sean Waltman for figures to include - Nash would be the only one left under contract to TNA that they couldn't make - and being 51 he should be done wrestling soon, and most likely would sign a Legends contract with WWE too.
Ric Flair only has a one year deal with TNA, which ends at the end of 2010, and after that he is able to sign with WWE if both sides agree - so I would expect to see Flair in Mattel form within a year or two.

I am pretty sure Hogan signed a 3 year deal with TNA. I doubt he is around for that long but stranger things have happened. Vince has no problem using Hogan to make money and I am sure would love to do so again.
