Noticed Steve said something to the effect of “we will keep on hoping” during his most recent interview. Not verbatim what he sad but his response to the question seemed to indicate that nothings changed in the situation.

I really wonder what WWE's issue is. No Ric Flair figures since E92. No Macho Man figures for ______ period of time. Who's next to suffer the same fate of no figs or does WWE even care? Meanwhile, other toy companies make figures of these talents that don't hold a candle to what Mattel can do. Ugh.

I'm just curious if his deal with WWE now encompasses figures. 'cause they got other merch with his name/image on it. I'm beginning to wonder if figure rights carry different verbiage/terms. =/

I really hope they get him back. I still want Macho and Liz in the Coliseum Collection eventually.

Really hope we get that UE18 Macho Man - and a Coliseum Collection figure.
I'd LOVE more Flair figures too... especially an UE of his first DM (black robe) figure.

While the new sponsorship deal between Slim Jim and WWE has nothing to with Mattel, you would think it would help negotiations between Mattel/Slim Jim/WWE if Mattel was able to, and wanted to, do another Slim Jim Macho Man. In addition to the Slim Jim Halloween Havoc Savage, lets go 'old school' and do a mail away Slim Jim Macho Man Retro. STAMFORD, Conn., August 3, 2023 – WWE® (NYSE: WWE) and Slim Jim® today announced a multi-layered partnership that will begin with Slim Jim serving as the Presenting Sponsor of a marquee match at SummerSlam on Saturday, August 5 at Ford Field in Detroit. This partnership between the two iconic brands pays homage to their shared, savage past and marks the largest sponsorship deal in WWE history.... ...In addition to the live event integrations, the WWE and Slim Jim partnership will include custom content and social media executions with Superstar talent, online sweepstakes to drive fan engagement, in-store activations and more. This is probably my number 2 most wanted Savage right now.

Not verbatim what he sad but his response to the question seemed to indicate that nothings changed in the situation. I don't think Steve will tell us once a deal is signed again without revealing a figure/render (RSC fest, WM weekend, SDCC, etc.). The other option is a lineup leak, but they confirmed so many lineups at SDCC. I think the days of lineups leaking for elites might be a thing of the past as long as Mattel keeps up with the reveal schedule. I'm not saying that he is signed again, but a "we will keep on hoping" isn't a yes or a no (unless he confirmed that he wasn't in the interview).

NGL, I want that unreleased UE in the worst way. And I don't even care much about the colleseum collection but I would buy a Macho/Liz 2-Pack in a heartbeat.

Watched the interview - the question was ‘has anything changed on the Macho Man situation?’ And Steve simply said ‘nope’.
So he’s still off the table, for now. Sadly

This is a slightly older picture of my Macho/Macho-Adjacent collection. I've since added the Superstars figure with the purple robe, and this past year's WrestleMania Macho King figure. Nice collection. I have mine set up similarly with the smaller retros in front. Snap into a slim Jim!

I saw this posted on Social Media and thought it was pretty cool, maybe you'll find it helpful! Where can I find a full sized image of that?

Superstar Billy Graham also announced for 2K so we should be seeing him soon as well
