Don't know about how possible it is but, I would love an ECW Taz and Sabu 2-pack.

Probably not but he's a figure I'd love to get.

I'd love it, but Vince is very resistant of doing business with former ECW talent. Many were part of the concussion lawsuit, so maybe Vince holds a grudge. Vince also doesn't like to promote talent who are associated mainly with other companies, even if they spent some time in WWE.
Guys like Raven, Sabu, Sandman, Lance Storm, Shane Douglas, Taz (currently in AEW, so forget about it), the Dudley Boyz (even though D-Von works for WWE), Rob Van Dam, Tajiri,...the list goes on and on. They all had stints in WWE, some very long, but they are most known for their ECW tenure and Vince McMahon doesn't see the need to promote that even though he owns the rights to ECW now.
There's also the flip side of that, and some talent have said for various reasons they'll never do business with Vince McMahon ever again because they feel like he shouldn't be able to make a profit off of them and that these video game and figure deals are more advantageous for the WWE rather than the talent.
We've seen a guy like Mick Foley stop doing business with WWE over squabbles over money with video games and figures. How many times has Foley been missing from a WWE game or had a figure delayed over and over...so if Vince will do that to a Legend like Foley who I'm assuming Vince should have a lot of respect for and who is known for his WWE tenure, I'm sure Vince McMahon would lowball and give sh*tty deals to guys like Sandman and Sabu who he probably looks down upon.
Just my opinion.
I'm hoping that with the emergence of AEW and their figure line, perhaps at some point AEW can develop a "legends line" with their figures and maybe we can get guys like Raven, Sandman, Sabu, Lance Storm, etc that WWE has seemingly no interest in making or Jazwares can entice those talents to sign deals with them if the problem is that they have no interest in working with WWE.
But I posted this in a thread the other day that there are two reasons why we don't have the people we don't have:
Option 1: Vince doesn't want to do business with the talent. Option 2: The talent doesn't want to do business with Vince.
Simple as that, really.

I think its possible. They don't seem to have bad blood with each other. I think its more of Mattel for some reason not being able to make ECW wrestlers in general.

As much as I’d love it he’s not doing any good for himself on Twitter
