The Next Cena/Batista?

[Deleted]

So bacicly(sp?) im asking who you think will be the next figures that will be in pretty much every series,like cena and batista.


discuss.

[hartbreakkid!]

kennedy is popping up there pretty often now, but only time will tell. TBH, I think Mr. Kennedy (Kennedy) is the next big thing.

[brethitmanhart]

Edge is becoming more popular. Also Rey has more than Cena and Batista, atleast they are all in different colours and attires.

Honestly i think i jeff hardy could possibly be the next big fig

[cjc123]

Either of these...HBK/HHH/Jeff Hardy

[Leor]

Hardys

[taker1]

or Umaga. He's had a lot of figures lately. and they sell quick.

Lashley is going to be the next John Cena, in terms of figures. Look at it this way: Cena wears (more or less) the same color shorts all the time. He used to wear blue, then switched to green, right? Well, Lashley wears pretty much the same trunks all the time as well. I mean, we alread have, what, six or seven Lashley figures since his debut? He only has two different head scans (One for RA, one for DA) and other than his first figure (SHW) they've all shared the same torso.

At least Ege figures and Batista figures get updated with new tattoos and scans (some times) but Cena seems to be the same thing over and over, as does Lashley now.

And with Mr. Kennedy, we had one figure released twice (So does the re-release count it as one or two?) with the screaming scan, then the DA, then the WM 2 Pack with the UT (first screaming scan as well) and now we have the RA 27 scan. So after four figures- tops- we get a new Kennedy scan. But Lashley (in RA form) is still milking his scan from, like, 10 AD sets ago!

I agree completely. He's like Cena, bland, not many attires, yet he's had a load figures for the short time he's been there and kids love him. Expect a new Lashley scan too, and thus lots more figures, especially if he returns with new tights or something.

I think MVP will start getting figures in almost every sereis

Cena went from blue to black to green to blue shorts. But I agree with what you're saying.

True, Jakks just started putting the back design on Lashley. But it's not even a figure released to mass retail. So now they will probably start making Lashleys with diff color back designs, then a new scan with the same back designs, and randomly they will put his tattoo on his figures. Yup, good call lol.

Kennedy has

RA 19 - SHW torso, screaming scan(light blue)
WM 2 pack w/Taker - HW torso screaming scan(red)
WalMart belt 2 pack - heavyweight torso straight scan(blue)
RA 27 - same as above(black)
RA 28 - same as above(red)
WM 23 - Updated attire design, same as above(green)
DA 4 - DA scan(grey)
DA 7 - same scan (blue/white)

8 figures, one more coming in AD 28? Total to 9, I don't think jakks will push out anymore for a while.

I forgot about CM Punk though, I bet he's going to be getting a bunch more figures.

^ Punk and Jeff.

Lashleys latest figure with back design not released at mass retail? Yes it has been.... The Wrestlemania 23 Umaga & Batista set is in tru

[cjc123]

Well I meant, to all the other stores that carry figures^^

Oh, Now i understand what you mean

[taker1]

I agree with the guy who said that WM23 isn't mass retail. Technically it is, but there's a reason why a lot of the WM figures become sought after later on..they were exclusive to one store.

[The IHate Honda]

I think Jeff Hardy and Umaga are the big ones right now. Mvp Is really popular too. Those are definatly the top candidates to be the next cena/batista or even rey mysterio. Lashley is very popular with kids as well, but i think he comes in at #4 in this one....


Elijah Burke seems to be overstocked now. Same with Kennedy, well at least here in Connecticut.

[Cmaster05]

when and if jericho returns, it will be him.

[greenjack1992]

You've all forgotten about CM Junk. Punk.
