If only 4 more figs are coming then it’ll likely be: Blue trunks Andre 2 in 1 with swappable hair and Vince McMahon Ultimate Warrior and Ted DiBiase I hope you’re wrong about Vince. He’d be much lower on my wish-list. |

I SO hope we can get the Savage/Steamboat set someday! I thought that was for sure going to be wave 4 until that other ultimate Savage got delayed. I can't lie, I'm glad it was the Hart Foundation that was my must have set going in but now my top 2 left are Savage and Steamboat and the British Bulldogs Yep, all dream sets. Now, about those Bret heads… |

Which set is Dec 7? Piper/Steele, Hart Foundation or both? Piper/Steele is December 7th and I think Hart Foundation should be around March/April of next year. |

Andre/Studd Warrior/HTM Bigalow/Hacksaw Muroco/Steamboat I’d love Bigelow in this line. He’s always been one of my favorites! |

Definite classics, but with Hogan already in this line, wouldn’t be top of my list. Hulk is always at the top of my list. |

If they ended this line without doing the classic yellow-trunks Hogan, that would be very odd and feel like a piece is missing (like Savage, sigh). As a MOC collector, it would look cool. I just want others first before getting him again, myself. But I certainly get the appeal… Brother! |

BOGO is great, wish there were more than 2 (3 if you count Ali) to choose from. I would have LOVED to pay full price on 2 Pipers by now. Also, any word on WHEN that Piper / Steele or Hart Foundation sets would go up for sale? Isn't the Ali set part of the ultimate collection? |

Similar box for sure, but he doesn’t have the LJN homage blister packaging (and wasn’t in the original LJN line). |

And Adrian Adonis would be really exciting for figure collectors -- and maybe a bit of a bump after that Darkside of the Ring episode. It seems strange to me the family wouldn't give Mattel the rights

It seems strange to me the family wouldn't give Mattel the rights I never liked his LJN, it stood worse than most and the only one less playable was Rude. That said, I want depth for this line, so the more the merrier! |

BUT, it has to still be LJN style art on the card, not real pics like the LJN black-card posters were (so disappointing even in my childhood). |

Just wish the sets could increase frequency. |

Andre the Giant vs Big John Studd Ultimate Warrior vs Million Dollar Man The Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff Ricky Steamboat vs Honky Tonk Man JYD vs King Harley Race “Cowboy” Bob Orton and Captain Lou Albano Greg Valentine and Jimmy Hart I would buy these sets. However, I don’t think JYD is available any longer, I highly doubt they would trust Orton or Albano to anchor a set, nor Valentine or Jimmy Hart. |

What we’ll likely get is more upgrades in figures we have.
What I want is first time in the line or new looks to Mattel.
