Typically Top Picks are two recent figures that are straight up repackaged and one new figure. Sometimes the ratio varies where you’ll get 2 new and 1 repackage. So considering Logan is gonna be a new figure then it’s a safe bet that Cody will be a recent repackage. So without counting the Stardust figure Cody has had 2 Elites since his return with one being the last Top Pick so technically it could be the same as his top picks. Or have they ever done a Top Pick from an earlier WWE figure? If they have then could it be one of the Cody’s prior to when he left the wwe? i want that e13 cody rereleased

I can’t think of an example where they pulled from something that wasn’t fairly recent for Top Picks. I think if they go back that far then it’ll just be a Greatest Hits.

This Cena comes to mind: But that wasn’t a re-release, was it? I know they’ve done flashbacks but think PJ was asking when they do re-releases as Top Picks are they always recent figs or have they gone further back.

Yes, meaning could they redo the Elite Series 2(?) Cody as a Top Pick or would that be more for the Greatest Hits line?

before the last set of top picks when was the last time we saw re-releases in top picks before the cena/seth/reigns one it was cody/rey/riddle in which only cody was not a rerelease before that we got tons of new figs like yellow and pink Rey, 2022 Rock and others, even the re-releases were ones people wanted like Elite 3 Cena

What if it was a suited Cody Elite? I’d pass. Unless the wrestle wearing a suit I hate suited figures for wrestling figures.

Like William Regal, 80s Flair, and, of course, authority figures and managers. Yes, Flair is the one exception I would buy of an “active” wrestler in a suit. Modern versions of Regal & Triple H I would buy suited versions of because they are retired from in ring action. But if they are figures from when they were still active wrestlers I’d rather ring gear. Or if the street gear were jeans and work boots like the NWO figures I’d buy those. I may buy the basic Cody in the suit, but I wouldn’t buy an Elite suited Cody. Even with latest M$M figures. I bought them because those suits were a big part of his gimmick, but I would have rather gotten a ring geared figure at the correct height.

Regal during the Attitude Era I remember more in suits than ring attire. A nice 3 piece suit and a tea cup is what I want most whenever his non-compete with AEW is up.

I'd love it to be suited Cody, honestly. That one I'd buy.
Outside of that, unless they make an Ultimate Edition that isn't garbage, I'm fine with the one I have.

I’m guessing it’s a rerelease because I’ve asked twice and other questions before and after have been answered but that one has not. I’d guess not confirming it’s a rerelease might help people Blind preordering. If it is a rerelease, definitely cancelling my preorder.
Hopefully it’s a new attire but not getting my Hopes up
