I'll buy 2 of every Elite Hart, but only one of every Basic. I am tempted to try the torso switches, but botching it would get pretty expensive.

We've seen some awesome torso swaps from muccguy88, Dean, soon to be done by Apoc, PJ, and myself and I'm sure many of you guys too. All giving us every major combination of Bret Hart attires he's worn: all-pink, all-black, pink/black, black/pink - and you can swap fore-arms for his black wrist-tape WCW look if you wanted. With all that possible now, would you still buy future Bret Harts? What could they possibly make that would be different enough? His early Hart Foundation blue? Personally I'd buy a Hart Foundation 2-pack in black/pink with a simple heart decal, but with Anvil's legal troubles I don't know if we'll ever see this one. Bandy I never got why people say "Legal troubles" would keep Mattel from making so and so. It never stopped Jakks. Has this been said or implied by Matty? Am I missing something? Just wondering if this has been addressed or hearsay you know?

I'm just basing it on the fact that WWE seems to steer away from guys with their personal demons and black-listed Scott Hall and dodged a bullet with Jeff Hardy (leaving the company before the release of his figure). I can't see why they would invest in an Anvil if they are scared about the PR. Although we're getting a new elite Evan Bourne, but to be fair that figure was in the works at least 10-12 months before right? So no, it hasn't been officially addressed - maybe we'll be surprised at SDCC this year.

I buy 2-3 of each figure of Bret, Macho, Warrior, Rock, Stone Cold, Jericho so I hope Mattel keeps pumping these guys out.

They could make the attire from when him and Luger fought and he had the confetti all over his tights. That may have been Royal Rumble 94 even. Also, a lot of people out there don't know how to make customs or just don't have the time or plain and simple even want to try it in fear of "ruining there figure" plus Mattel never made a pink and black or black and pink accurate Bret Hart yet so i would probably keep buying them even if i made a custom. Even switching tops and bottoms they still don't match up to iconic black/ pink or pink/ black Bret Hart attires properly and i would just much rather purchase ones with the proper logos on the pants and such.

And in this day and age I'm sure Mattel wouldn't want to release something where some group will boycot their company

I'll get his core looks from the mid-90s on:
-Black top, pink tights -Pink top, black tights
Also, his Survivor Series '96 attire with hot pink flames, orange trim and the jacket with yellow stars. Awesome look he rarely wore - an internet exclusive 2-pack with Austin would be ideal. I'd take this look over his usual pink top/black tights combo since it looked so cool.
Would also get an O.G. Hart Foundation from the 80s and (hopefully) a '97 Hart Foundation version of Jim Neidhart. We need him to give us a complete-as-possible Hart Foundation!

I didn't even know about the Anvil situation. Is stealing oxycontin and methadone from a friend that big of a deal? LOL. Didn't Elizabeth OD? Eddie? Kerry? Prescription forgery. Didn't know about that either. Sheik and Hacksaw in a car with coke and pot. Now that is kind of funny. Undertaker's son looks like a ginger. Then there's the RVDs, Sabus, Angles, Flairs, etc. Soon the only guy with a figure will be Cena.

I'll buy every one Mattel produces because Bret is my first favorite wrestler and first wrestling figure all the way back in 1996, when figures were $4.99 and you ritually snorted that toxic Jakks fart every time you popped 'em out of the blister. Everybody did that I'm sure of it.

Bret is one of my favorites so count me in on buying every figure that is made of him. I would like to see the black top speckled outift.

I want the one from the Rumble with Luger. If it is a quality figure I will buy Bret though.

I will get every Bret Hart figure 2x lol. I'm like that as well except he's more of a 5X guy for me (Same as Piper) 1 goes on Basic/Elite shelf depending on the figure (basic or Elite styled) 1 goes on the Legends shelf 1 stays at my computer table (change poses on) 1 stays MIB/MOC and 1 I get for attire changes/customs. That said I still need 2 more RRH & RSC Exclusive along with another DM to be caught up. lol That's a lot of Bret's lol!!! With my Marvel Legends, Dcuc, MOTU classics and WWE complete collection Im surprised I even have space for my Legends,Flashbacks and Brets to keep loose and MOC!!! Not to mention I also have the new ML's loose and MOC as well lol!!!

Depends on if I like it or not. So far, I only have DM5. I might pick up the BOPPV one, and I'm going to pass on the RSC one.

Bret's my second favorite wrestler (next to Sting) and that said, with the main four variant looks for Bret possible by combining the existing two, I'd be satisfied if that's all we got of him as that combo looks are the immediate thought that comes to mind when I think of Bret.
A few guys who they could never "variant" me out on with Flashback looks would be: HBK Razor Ramon/Scott Hall Kevin Nash/Diesel 1-2-3 Kid/Syxx/X-Pac Chris Jericho
