So for the last few months people are saying who will be the 4th Defining Moments figure that will be released. I am sure it will not be announced until SDCC in July. I decided to take a hard look on who will NOT be the 4th DM figure. once I figured out who will not be the 4th Q DM figure, it will leave only 5 names that will be are usual suspects, and it will most likely be one of them.
if you look at the characters that came out under the DM banner, all have been Flashbacks of only main even level talent . I highly doubt MDT will change this trend, so only main event talent will considered in this.
Who will not be the 4th DM figure:
- HBK : the RSC figure just came out, it would be overkill to make 2 flashback HBK's 6 months apart - Macho Man: Elite 38 macho coming in Q4 around same time kind of confirms its not Macho - Sting: one coming in June - Hogan: When July roles around we would have 4 Hogan elites released in 7 months DM january, Elite 34 March, HOF June, RSC July - Triple H: The elite 35 figure just came out is almost DM quality with the entrance gear - Kane: done't see any DM Flashback coming anytime soon after WM30 elite - Taker: WM31 elite, BP all just came out - Austin: not really DM type of character, they kind of already made the only Austin that warrants DM treatment - Rock: see Austin - Yokozuna: HOF figure coming - Eddie: see yoko - Bret: the only one on this list i am bit conflicted about, but don't see it happening. we are due for an elite Bret as the last one we got was wm30 elite a year ago - Brock: one coming in Elite 37 - Nash: don't see this. - Flair: got a DM last year, not long shot they do another, not this soon though. HOF 4 pack of him coming soon
well that leaves the 5 suspects below as the most likely to be our 4th quarter Defining Moments figure
Who will it most likely be:
- Warrior: god knows this has been talked about a zillion times on here, but sorry can't Bill's word on this and warrior is one of the easiest choices to make a DM figure of. as huge warrior mark, I really hope we got something fresh and it does not turn out to be him.
- Piper: the only Piper we got in elite form was way back in 2010, in a 2 pack and was not all that great really. he would come with shirt, jacket, kilt to warrant the DM treatment.
- Bulldog: MDT knows people want a SS92 version, and I have a feeling the will do one. he would come with british flag cape and IC title. now that would make a bada$$ DM figure
- Y2J: its a travesty that we only got 2 elite style y2j's, and both are flawed in their own way. we may finally get a flashback version of him.
- First time in the line: flair, hogan, razor, sting were all introduced to the Mattel line in any form under the revived DM line. so the trend may continuo the 4th quarter figure. I will not get in to who it maybe as that is thread on its own. but this is our prime suspect and the odds on favorite as our 4th Quarter DM figure.

Didn't MDT say the next warrior figure would be 2016.
I'd totally buy Piper. Jericho is who I want though.
Also I remember some speculation about maybe Lita.

What's this about a 4th DM? Seriously though, of course we know my number 1 want. But I started to collect the DMs so whoever it is I'll buy. If not Warrior I'd love a Bulldog

I'm hoping for Jericho. It would be a hard sell on anyone else for me.

I'm hoping it's an Elite Shield DM 3 Pack, with removable gear so you can have them NXT style, tag and US title belts, and a working remote control helicopter accessory.

I just got the Defining Moments Warrior today in the mail from WM 7. Perfect timing since I just bought the new blu-ray yesterday. It seems like Warrior was going to be the 4th DM, but IMO I think he got pushed backed to 2016 due to a new signing. If it is Warrior though, I hope it is a DM from WM 12 or from his WCW run.
With that being said, my prediction is that it is Sid. He fits as the 3 letter name that we don't know they signed yet and I don't see another line-up that he can go in this year. I know most people don't think he is DM price worthy, but if they include a title, referee shirt and jeans as accessories, then I think it could work (although it would combine different runs in his career so I'm not sure they will do that).
Regarding Macho Man, I'm not sure if I would rule him out based off of timing. Didn't we get DM Hogan, basics, and Elite 34 within weeks of one another? I think if it is WM3 robe that it will sell regardless of the WCW Macho that is coming out (personally, I'm not too excited for that one)

Also, we don't know if acronyms even count for the 3 letter hint (if so, then the one we probably know about would most likely be DDP, which has since been announced-it would help speculation if they confirmed DDP counts)

I am so thoroughly sick of anything and everything Ultimate Warrior. Please Mattel, no figures of him for at least a year or more.

Just kidding, you do have a great idea though.

I want it to be Goldberg dammit. Goldberg didn't have enough accessories to warrant a DM figure. All I could think of that he could come with is a World Title and maybe Harley Davidson gear.

How could you say that HBK is overkill all the while saying that the next DM should be Warrior? You sound a bit bias IMO. Warrior is probably the most consistently produced legend made by Mattel. There are so many classic attires that have not been made by Mattel for other guys, but you feel the need to put Warrior as the most needed update?

I'm still trying to figure out why a flashback jericho isn't in my hand.
