I am also intrigued. I want Dino bravo He was named on the back of the box of earthquake Ok.... so was Chyna on E23 HHH's Oh.................dammit! I did not know that e23 was just before my time collecting and I don't have HHH. I don't think they should name people they will never make |

Possibility of a Miz/Mizdow Battlepack? With jackets and shades? Or could there be a Mizdow in Elite 39 to tie in with Elite 37 Miz?

That character is done, and they missed out. They could have hot shotted a Mizdow,but they didn't. Now besides us on Wfigs, no one will want him, and he will shelfwarm like normal I know it takes time for figures, and especially new molds, etc, etc., but I feel Mattel really misses the boat on some of these characters Sandow will never be as popular as he was during that run EDIT: my fault, I was thinking Mizdow was confirmed already as an Elite in 38. But my thoughts still stand if they do one in 39 or whatever. Character will be long forgotten by then. |

The lack of any figure news for the last month(?) or so is making me depressed.

Dino Bravo would be one of the worst peg warmers in the history of ever. Actually I think if they made Dino he would be the first guy to literally melt pegs it would stay there so long.
Jakks could've gotten away with making him because the Classic line was built on guys like that, plus they were full sets so if one or two hung around for awhile (See: Brother Love) it wasn't a huge deal.
We get 1, sometimes 2 Flashbacks in an Elite set. There are 300 guys I would want over Dino.

I had a dream last night about Comic Con. The 4th DM was under this big purple blanket, that Bill pulled off to reveal a figure of himself. Jerry Lawler then showed up and gave him a Slammy Award for "Shocker of the Year".
I need to stop eating cheese before bed, I think.

I agree, but Dean malenko shouldn't be expected to do much better on those pegs true BUT Malenko had a pretty extensive career with some title wins and was a recognizable name in WCW during the hottest time in wrestling. And we haven't seen the final product of Malenko yet, maybe he will come with a cool accessory besides the vest. Dino Bravo was pretty much a lower mid-card/almost-jobber. Point is, I can see Mattel's reasoning for making a Malenko, could never justify making Dino Bravo |

Although I somewhat disagree about the points about dino bravo. I do see your point but what's wrong with him warming shelves when guys like cesaro, mark Henry and almost all of E32 have done the same? They'll sell eventually. Retailers will buy them. After that it's not Mattels problem (muhahaha)
I really feel they need to introduce an elite double pack line to introduce guys like Dino either with Jimmy Hart, Earthquake or Greg Valentine. Just think there's so much potential there - or perhaps just my wishful thinking lol

So just a wild guess that popped into my head maybe Brooklyn brawler is the 4th DM.

Quit hating on Dino lol ,he would sell just fine at half a case or maybe even one per case. Plus he would have his cool cape robe, gauntlets and weight belt.
Anyone who still has a jakks classic collection would buy that figure in a heartbeat not to mention there are way more people on board the Mattel band wagon now than 5 years ago
Obviously he's not gonna fly off shelves like savage would but they could find a way to release him and have it make sense I'm sure, although I doubt they ever will
