With Mania in Dallas, WWE should do an episode of Rivalries: Freebirds vs Von Erich's. Induct the Birds in the HOF, and give us Hayes & Gordy vs Kerry (repaint in red) and Kevin (repaint in yellow).

Keeping it simple and within the HOF criteria: they can make a 4 pack with Bob Backlund, Bruno Sammartino, Pedro Morales, and Superstar Billy Graham as a WWWF champions set. May not set the world on fire with modern fans but should make a lot of collectors and old school fans happy. That doesn't follow the pattern. Two of figures need to be straight up repaints. This four pack would have three completely new guys. The reason the 4-pack works for Mattel is because they don't have to spend extra money on extra tooling.

I think Superstar Billy Graham will get a stand alone Flashback Elite figure or at least included in the HOF single line Backlund needs to be sold as a single figure, BUT Mattel needs to include young Backlund head and be able to switch out with mid 90's shaved head Backlund. Maybe include the Winged Eagle belt to celebrate his magnificent run as Champ before losing to Diesel As far as Pedro, the ONLY way that figure ever happens is in a 4 pack with say different generations of Champs maybe Bret Hart, Stone Cold & Edge or Cena. That way it will sell to kids and it would be a hit with collectors too (and knock out one of the guys who doesn't have a shot in hell at a singles release) Now we have to figure out Ivan, Stasiek and Buddy because I am 100% confident we will get Angle and Hardy sooner rather than later

This four pack would have three completely new guys. The reason the 4-pack works for Mattel is because they don't have to spend extra money on extra tooling. Backlund and Pedro would only require making new heads and reuse already existing molds with basic paint apps. Bruno's a straight repaint. Graham would be the only one semi complex paint apps due to his airbrush trunks. So just 3 new heads which can be reuse when even they release the guys as solo elites. Thus saving money. And by existing molds, I'm talking about the ones already been made and used on a regular basis for other wrestlers.

Yeah I'm down for it, especially if we could somehow get a new (old) championship belt with it. No WWE line has ever completed the champions. It would be a neat distinction that will likely never be matched again.

That would be a pretty strange 4-pack.... Because the Iron Shiek and Colonel Mustafa were the same person! You'd have a repaint in the same package..... lol this a thousand times

Here's some quality ideas that would actually sell
1) Evolution circa 2004. All in ring gear with WHC, IC, and Raw tag belts. This gets you your HHH in color tights that it seems a lot of people want.
2) DX - seriously you could do any era of attire for HHH, NAO, and X-Pac
3) Mick Foley - Cactus, Dude Love, Mankind like elite 17, short hair commissioner foley/or online exclusive brown mankind
4) Undertaker - Debut, Ministry, ABA, current
5) HBK - Rockers, early-mid 90s, DXish era, late 00's (maybe WM 21 attire would be cool)
6) HHH - Hunter Heart Helmsley, DX, early 00s in hHh tights, COO in suit
7) Sting - Surfer, Crow, Wolfpack, current
8) Hart Foundation
9) Nation of Domination - Rock, Farooq, Henry, Kama Mustafa or D'Lo
10) Undertaker, Kane, Paul Bearer, Mankind/Austin
11) WM 2000 - The Rock, Big Show, HHH, Foley
12) The Kliq
