Newcomer/Return/Attire Change Fig Discussion SPOILERS AHEAD

[kanepilk]

As someone who's a Kane fan, and who wants his 2001 look, I can only assume Mattel deliberately put the silly 'Kane' logo on his glove (which he never wore, except in a TV advert, I believe), so they could re-release the same figure again, but without the 'Kane' logo on the glove in a future set.

Do Mattel tend to do this kinda stuff often, or am I hoping for a miracle?

It seems they try to avoid re-releasing the same attire when possible?

I would like a Happy Festivus Big E, please. Thanks.

Me. I don't like '3 in 1' as an idea for any figures. Kinda worked a little bit for Edge as the other two lads were deliberately copying his exact look so they could confuse the ref and such, but the Mean Street Posse all dressed differently, were different heights, build, etc. They'd be too different to make a single body do them any kinda justice at all in my opinion.

Agreed. This wouldn't work at all.

That said, I would love Posse figures. It's my greatest want, actually. I've wanted Posse figures ever since they showed up 20+ years ago.

Oh agreed, 3 in 1s wouldn't really be ideal with their body types. I just don't feasibly see any other way they'd get figures made at this point. Especially now since multi-figure packs are so rare in today's retail space. Even Ringside seems to stick to 2 packs on exclusives.

But somewhere along the line we need a pack of the Posse vs Patterson & Briscoe to commemorate the highest rated wrestling match in television history. A record that many say will never be toppled.




that's tuff

I can see this one or the godfather one being the figure they make to represent his run so maybe a 50/50 chance unless he changes it soon

You know, if they ever did release them as a 3-in-1 pack, I'd buy it. I'd probably customize the heck out of it though. I'd assume they'd release the three heads with some generic body, but I would happily buy three and then re-work them to match. I'm good enough with a paintbrush that I can make them look right. Really, I just need the headsculpts and the base bodies.

I don't know about Rodney's tats though. Might skip those.

Not that this is at all likely (I'm happy we're getting one Elite of her; we haven't been so lucky with people like Tegan Nox and Mercedes Martinez), but I really dug Dakota Kai's Wargames look this year:

Elite Xia absolutely needs lightning effects. I know you still have them from the DC lines, Mattel. Don't hold out on us.

Please Just give me a damn Dan Severn and I'll be happy

Not gonna lie. This was my exact first thought when I saw this entrance.

WWE has posted their condolences to Betty White’s family and fans. Can we expect an Elite in 2022? They could use Mae Young parts.

Would like to get an Elite Ricochet in his Royal Rumble gear.

Also hope we get Alpha Academy.
