MVP would be an awfully quick turnaround on getting a figure out. It’s only been a handful of months for him back on TV. It’s possible that he may not even be under a deal that would make a figure possible at this time. its been longer than gronk lol If I'm not mistaken, Gronk has been tossed about with the WWE for over a year now. He only made his official debut this past WM, but he's been around for longer. Still, if they had this figure planned all the way back then, then that's a heck of a bet to hedge on someone who, at the time, they had no guarantee on. Figures, even in the rendered stage, aren't cheap to make. Clearly, they have the ability to churn out pain apps and the like really fast. I mean, look at the KO tattoo that we were all worried about! So it's likely that a lot of that render work was done relatively recently. But the scan and head render? That was likely done much earlier. I'm not in the business of making figures, I'm just a lowly failed computer art major. But knowing how long it takes to model and render something? Yeah, it's a heck of a risk if they didn't have a guarantee in place. The fact that Gronk played Vince for a fool only makes it worse in hindsight.

If I remember right, MVP did the Rumble/RAW shot in January and the Rey match on RAW was supposed to be a retirement match.
They were talking to him about being an agent and brought him into some of the early PC shows to do a VIP Lounge segment and he’s kinda stuck around. I’m not sure he’s even been under a full-time deal yet as I swear I saw something recently that now that he’s been in ring more than expected that they are working on a deal.

It’s possible that he may not even be under a deal that would make a figure possible at this time. its been longer than gronk lol For arguments sake, let's say he was under a deal allowing for figures after making the Rumble appearance. Then yeah, it would be possible to have a figure of him in the pipeline, especially considering we're getting 2 Morrison elites, a basic, and the Gronk elite. If I was to make a guess though, he wasn't under a deal at that point. He may not even be on one now. But I'm going to assume he will be soon, and in the future we'll likely see an MVP figure come to fruition.

Wish we would of had more first time in the line legends but at least we're getting legends. Like the look of the DOD set as well. Pity that i'll have to pay a ridiculous amount of money for them seeing as im in the UK.
Could of at least made the British Bulldog a UK Exclusive

Was really hoping to see Barbarian, Haku, and Hercules renders or news. The Mabel gimmick streak is over 2 years in a row, unless they pull out a last minute render of one of his other gimmicks.

But to me yea Big Daddy V is really all that is left worthwhile

The basic Bray looks better than the elite exclusive 🤦♂️

Definitely getting that Bray basic. Nikki Cross is going to become the next likeness that they just can't quite get. Johnny Gargano's Wolverine gear came out about as good as could be expected, given the circumstances. X-Pac looks cool, but I still wish the X-Factor gear won.

Cool. Pac doesn’t have his tongue out. May have to get a couple for some swaps.

That Basic Bray looks ten times better than the RSC exclusive Elite.

When a basic firefly funhouse bray is better than your ringside exclusive 🤣
