Is there going to be a TRU line for this last WM or not? Mattel has been decent with past WM lines and I just wasn't sure if they were going to continue with that line. I would love it if they did simply to get an Undertaker figure that is bald and has that robe he wore. But I'm betting if they do make the line it will be full of repaints and no new scans of anyone esp since it's and exclusive for TRU.

There will be 4 basics that will include a build a stage part, 4 elites that will contain a BAF part and a special Elite. The BAF is a character that was not on Wrestlemania but we will enjoy.

So basically there will be 2 figures of both sets released at first and then slowly they will release the final figures used to finish the stage and the BAF, just like the BOPPV crap..........I wish I could say I'm happy but I think I will be frustrated.

Actually I think the Mattel guys said they are going to fix the case packing so every figure will be in every case. But just not in equal amounts. But if you find a fresh case you should be able to get all 4 figures at once.

Did you watch WrestleMania or just listen to rumours beforehand? Undertaker wasn't bald.

I know he isn't bald, but considering how he used to look he is "bald" its buzzed down to almost nothing and he has a little 1/4" mohawk.

Hope the build-a-stage is decent. I'm hoping for Elite Miz because his attire was really sharp.

The Q and A made it sound like this set was meant to be something else but was changed to a WM set so there could be people who were at Mania but had little roles. I am hoping for some killer re-paints that are so sharp it is hard to pass them up, but the set is being rushed and changed from its original intent so who knows how great they will look.

I bet it's going to be a WM28 curtain or something silly.

It seems like not every collector is willing to part with their money and this makes mattel very discouraged to proceed further with their creativity resulting in us getting less new figures and more repaints.

Maybe they'll use the Elite set for
Taker in his robe Rhodes in his sleeveless duster Jericho in his jacket deal Ryder in his gear from that match
and the special elite maybe John Laurinaitis in his Brother Love suit or HBK in his referee attire?
The BAF if I had to guess would be Brock Lesnar. He's really all I could think of that would be popular enough that people would buy the figures and who wasn't at Wrestlemania. Anyone else have an idea of who it could be?
and the basics for Miz CM Punk I'm sure Cena will be in it HHH

Anyone else have an idea of who it could be? and the basics for Miz CM Punk I'm sure Cena will be in it HHH I also said Lesnar in his return attire could be the BAF as all you need is to re tool the dress pants mold, Cena Torso with a glued on shirt and new head. It is expected that Undertaker with his robe and faux-hawk headsculpt will be the special Elite. I see the other Elites being Shamus, Jericho, Kane, and someone from the GM match. With the Basics I see the chance to put out Punk, Rock, Cena and HHH or Orton. I see Taker and Jericho being special figures with the rest being re-paints.
