Slaughter was just rumored, so I guess he got moved or whatever, we learned that with 10 and Hogan. But with the macho, Hall and Bam Bam rumors being true we can at least assume he is on the way.

I would think they wouldn't make colonel mustafa and ref sid without slaughter in the pipeline. I have a feeling he could be a rsc or amazon exclusive. They made a point to say "not a coincidence "

Oh yea he is def on the way, and it’s nice to know that he is on the way somewhere in the pipeline. That’s at least the nice part about placeholders they aren’t always right but you at least know who is being planned.

God it makes me so damn happy to see some retros coming back! Just completed my collection this morning to 100% it. Glad I can add on!

Some pretty cool reveals! Love how both Elite 86 Triple H figures turned out. I wish that Rollins came with the leather jacket (which he wore over the vest at Summerslam when he wore that attire), but other than it looks nice. That new Asuka is a thing of beauty! Also like the updated Reigns with the golden glove and full back tattoo finally!

Also, those new Hogans look nice, but IMO too much of 80s Hogan. I get it’s the iconic version of the Hulkster, but I want a “Hulk Still Rules” Hogan or a Mr. America Elite, dang it! Still, I guess I should just be glad we’re getting new Hogans in general.

Have the WWEMOTU went up for pre-order on Wal Mart yet does anyone know? Didn't someone mention 10am PT?

[freaqualizer]

Full WWE.COM gallery is up, including MOC Elite 86, Legends, and a bunch more photos like Savage without the shirt (it is pink):

Same PSA as before, if you look at these without seeing the video, several figures that are only shown here as renders have cloth accessories that aren't yet available to see. Oddly no Cactus photos here. Also, it's a bummer to me that Triple H comes with the normal DX shirt. Yes it's accurate to SummerSlam 98, but I was really hoping for the green X shirt or the jersey.

I am so stoked about survivor series Hogan. It's the look I've always wanted. People have joked that he looks crazy or coked out in the pic but that was hogans trademark look in that era. Perfect for hulking up or promos. So glad they got it right. The dm Hogan looked bland. Can't wait to set him next to mean gene for an interview. I wish they swapped ultimate edition wm9 Hogan with this one but oh well.

I've been clamoring for that SS96 Bret Hart figure since the early CS days. The lack of that badass jacket he wore is a letdown for sure, but the figure itself turned out beautifully.

[GreyHaze:Big Bad Booty Daddy]

I’ll be getting Bam Bam, Jeff (although, I’m not excited for another Jeff with white arm band and green belt), basic Kane (for the head) and cannot think of anything else at the moment. I would of gotten Scott Hall had he been in his iconic trunks with HALL written in red with black boots. It also seems like Mattel has a difficult time making Bret’s hair. The last few capture his facial likeness, but his hair always looks horrible. I think it’s time for a straight faced Bret.

I agree. I'm not a Hogan guy really, but I think the expressive head is MUCH more fitting for golden era Hogan than the ones that have been made previously.

Just to make it clear...THAT survivor series bret

Warlord still is the store exclusive in 87

[Deleted]

Only 4 figures in 87 not counting Warlord, there has to be one or 2 more

According to placeholders if still true it’s Otis and Braun.

[travisT]

What year is Hogan from?

[The Assassin]

Finally a new full-mask Kane head, unlike the previous effort this looks pretty good in terms of being accurate to his real mask shape, but since it's only a render I'll reserve final judgement until I see the real figure. Obviously we need this as an elite too, not just a basic with the costume only painted on, but for now I'm just focusing on being pleased to finally get a new head. I'm sure an elite using this head will follow. Or maybe even an ultimate.

[PJ]

So from the reveals this is what I am interested in.
RSC Cactus Jack - Preordered.
Elite Series 86 Triple H - already preordered both versions weeks ago.
Elite Series 86 - Sid, Col Mustafa & Rollins.
Retro Roddy Piper.
UE Hogan.
Survivor Series Hitman & Hogan.
Legends Series 11 - All.
Top Picks Elites - Rey & McIntyre.
Elite Series 87 Warlord.
MotWWEU - Hitman, Sgt Slaughter, JYD & maybe André.

Some pros some cons

I’m super bummed about Summerslam 98 Triple H. As usual something I’ve been hoping for forever turns out to be kinda sucky. Mattel missed the color of his tights by a mile. Still decent ‘98 Triple H fig but getting blue instead of purple really is a downer.

Ill wait to see how the US title comes out in production before deciding if I need to buy another Apollo. The IC title that came with Shinsuke was ridiculously small.

Super excited about ECW Bigelow & Cactus with two new ECW Belts to boot. Have to ask the question though, do I need to buy two Cactus’s to get a full set of the ECW Tag Titles. Otherwise when in the world are we going to see that again?

Kinda bummed about Legends Savage, guess its good for those who missed out but essentially its a rerelease from Mattel early days.

I both like and dislike Scott Hall’s Headscan, I like the approach but something about execution doesn’t look entirely like him.

MVP looks awesome, can’t justify buying another shirtless Reigns just because his gauntlet changed color, rest of the series is eh.

Cool that we’re getting Halloween Havoc Rollins but also can’t believe it might be in lieu of getting a legit MNM Rollins elite.

Rock & Sock 2 Pack looks cool, just dont know if I need it, so close to the UE Rock we just got.

Wish Bulldog was an elite.

Rey looks kinda goofy, probably should have mixed a paint splotch or two in there so it looked more like his Summerslam 07 attire.

Hardy UE looks cool, can prob pass on Rock, Cena, Hogan. Hopefully they come with more stuff that’s yet to be shown.

Hard to tell because of the render but Bret’s face looks like weird like someone sat on it.

[CM Tusk]

Ok so what I’ll need for my collection:

Ultimate Jeff and Cena
Elite Candice and Santos

I’m going to hold out and hope for Elites of Lumis and Priest
