Steve said that this was because hulk Hogan was originally in that line but then the world was exposed to his racism and Mattel had to pull his figure which caused Tito's slot to move to hulksters Which meant stores ended up ordering doubles. I believe the same thing happened with weasel suit Heenan and the sting figure that was cancelled Was it not Cactus Jack? Cos Hogan WAS released in the HOF series in WM9 attire.... Hogan was pulled from the second production run and they doubled up on Tito by mistake

Good knowledge guys.
Tito was a solid figure.

I also think Tito Santana just wasn’t a “must have” character for anyone at that time.
Piper, Hogan, DiBiase, Yoko… these are iconic “must have” names.

Yea Tito went from having either 1 or 2 a case (can’t remember) to having 4 per case.

Walmart is holding their collectorcon online right now. And all three Ruthless aggression elites are up. But aren’t available for preorder yet.

Why do they need any more made? Because the biggest stars are pretty always going to have a steady flow of figures. (Though Balor does stick out as the odd one out a bit, just given the terrible way WWE has booked him, but that's besides the point)

They've released so much talent in the past year or two so we will be getting tons of the same wrestlers now.

Given the production timeframe, a new Finn would correspond pretty well to the end of his NXT title run or even to his main roster return, depending on when 135 hits.

True (and FWIW I'm a big Finn fan) but even at those points he wasn't presented at the level of Reigns/Lashley/Becky/etc.

Jake Roberts will have gotten about 5 figures since the last Ultimate Warrior elite, what the heck is going on?

Looks like the Legends 14 have an est arrival date of September 10-15th I got the same notification but I think it’s just some thrown out date by target. I also have the target exclusive GI joe classified figures on preorder and they have the same estimated dates. And they were ordered months before the legends set. The second legends set of the year always hits stores in late April

They'll be able to make Warrior figures forever...I don't see Dana having a falling out with WWE. Jake on the other hand currently works for a different company, so his future is up in the air.
