I know this is wishful thinking but lemme just think up some fun nonsense shall I?
What if Mattel (hypothetical people, I know this won’t happen) for Elite 100 decided to do a whole series pertaining to figures like Gorilla that for one reason or another didn’t get to people? Like we end up setting a series with Monsoon, Harley Race, and four other ones that just didn’t get out there? Not random rereleases, not repaints, but an attempt to actually get these to folks again.

I just want the same commentator look. I dont want wrestling attire gorilla. Maybe a slight difference like a blue jacket or blue tinted glasses. Maybe package him in a two pack with heenan. Maybe sparkly red jacket heenan?My biggest want as far as Bobby goes. Maybe make it a Prime Time 3 pack with Hot Rod or better yet Jamison. they want these to sell |

I’ve got Gorilla. I just wanted one opened but when I realized how tough it was to get I kept it moc. I hope someday I open it I opened mine as soon as I got it for that reason. I know I wouldn’t want to. |

I really can’t see another one anytime in the near future. There are just not enough spots.

Maybe as a chase figure in the legends line on down the road?

I got it on eBay for like$50 when it first came out. And wow can’t believe it’s Harley raced. Thought for sure it would be like Sherri. It’s an awesome figure. The likeness and expression is so fun to see on the shelf

"As long as Monsoon remains available to us, there is a chance we can revisit him in the future when the right spot presents itself." /end topic. Yep that's all she wrote folks |

Lots of peeps have missed out in getting a Gorilla Monsoon elite figure myself included... surely the demand is there for th to bring out another Monsoon figure soon. You should have bought it when it first came out. |

They will make another when they want to, but I don't think it's anytime soon. I only saw him once... I want to say Elite series 72, 73, and 74 was kind of thrown at retail at the same time.
I don't care if they make another, but they have released 3 Bobby Heenan figures so I would worry about Gorilla

You should have bought it when it first came out. It was very difficult to find for most people (impossible for international collectors) and prices online were always high. |

Here’s what I suggest. Go out and find highly sought after figures out right now like AEW (especially Brandi), Bray, running change chase Rude, etc. and use for trade bait. List in the classified section, join wrestling figure Facebook groups, etc.

Trying to get this figure gave you a negative attitude in a hurry. Excedrin headache #25 to be exact. People who have this figure vs those that don't; you can cut the tension with a knife. But this figure is a beauty. A main event anywhere in the world

Honestly a two pack of Gorilla and Heenan makes the most sense. They don’t need to be elites, they’re announcers.
