Me = Seth Rollins Mattel = Dean Ambrose Turn your anger towards WWE. This whole fiasco is so blown out of proportion. WWE should have suspended hogan for 90 days without pay. Blame no one but hogan. he got caught on video being racist, then bashing gays and now it seems like there's more to come. He shouldn't of even been rehired with that porn coming back in the spotlight, if anything just signed for a merchandise contract. I don't know why it still shocks me that so many of you are willing to forgive this behavior (I don't care if it was private, doesn't mean he doesn't think that way) just for a few figures. It sucks, but hogan is the only one to blame.

Riley Cooper get a new $24 million dollar contract from the Eagles after making a racist remark. Hulk Hogan made a mistake almost 10 years ago and is being banished from WWE history. Everyone makes mistake, we all do things we wish we could take back... I guess we'll see what happens in the future. You never know.

He supported African American superstars like Virgil and Kamala and helped them get better pay and pushes. What he thinks is no one else's business but his own. So he's a homophobe , so he's "a little bit racist". He never stated his beliefs in public, on t.v or to an audience, it's something he said in confidence in private when he was in a bad place. He was taken advantage of. Everyone here could be crucified for something they said once in private . Hogan vented to someone he thought was a sympathetic and trustworthy friend during a dark time in his life, he should have been more candid and honestly I think what he said was very closed minded and dumb but I can support him because I have never heard any stories of him hurting anyone because of their skin color or sexuality. He is free to his own thoughts just like everyone else.

I'm at the point now where I'm just happy to have gotten any Hogan figures in this line, unlike the Jakks line where Savage was a glaring omission.

It's all a matter of pr and they had to do what they did. If it weren't anyone as popular without such a sought after figure, there wouldn't be such an uproar on here or so many in defense of him. He's supposed to be a role model for children.

The media is driving us in these situations and we are now so quick to judge.

He's supposed to be a role model for children. I don't blame wwe for what they did and never have, and he was a role model for children for decades, he did a great job at being a role model 365 days a year for how many years? 30? Maybe more? Then He had an adult conversation with someone he trusted and They videotaped him without his knowledge or permission to make money off of him. I would be just as supportive if it were Bo Dallas in this situation. Like I said, if he hurt someone, emotionally or physically or spiritually because of their skin or sexuality then so be it, if he called someone a hurtful word in public then he deserves it, he was secretly videotaped . Hulk has a right to his privacy. He said some bad stuff in private that never should have gotten out.

Hollywood Hogan was the one era of Hogan I really wanted. I grew up watching him in WWF, but I had just missed his era when I got into it in '92, so I had to relive all of his stuff on VHS. I was actually more into Bret, HBK, Razor, Diesel, and the rest of the "New Generation". It wasn't until Hogan turned heel I was actually alive and cognizant to appreciate the guy, as his early WCW run had me bored to tears (and it still does.. getting through 1995 Nitros on the Network right now... ugh, Dungeon of Doom..).
I guess for now I'll get another Hogan figure (in street gear) to swap the head onto my DM. I'm sure Hollywood will get made at some point, so I'm not super sad about it. A bit bummed, yes. Hogan will be back in WWE at some point and if Mattel still has the WWE license by then, the figure will be released immediately I'm sure. At that point I'd probably buy 2 lol. I'm just happy eBay prices haven't sky rocketed yet because I'm broke! LOL.

I agree with ya brother, I guess it's OK for Booker T to use that kinda language, or a certain "N" word right on TV saying "im comen after you N$%" !! Nothing wrong with that, and the only people that should be role modle in a child's life is there parents !!! We look up to all these people and idolize them for nothing!!! I think this whole thing is ridiculous .....they have forgiven just about everyone else for everything under the sun, they better forgive him for this. And watch what ya say, someone may be invading your privacy as we speak........

It is like trying to erase Michael Jordan from basketball. It cannot be done. It truly does cast a gloom over everything. It's the final nail in wrestling's coffin...sports entertainment can eat a phat one. Everything I've watched in the last 10 years was almost all forgettable...85 will live forever.

Check Amazon also, I purchased a backup DM Hogan for $20 Sat.

Once I had read the transcript of what Hogan said I was as sure as could be that we had ZERO chance of getting that Hollywood figure. So I'm amazed that some very thick individuals still thought there was a glimmer of hope for it happening.
