The throwbacks of cm punk are gonna be so sick

[pickle]

Ultimate MITB2011 and a retro fig should be top priority. Get them developed and on shelves before Punk burns another bridge.

[The Madness]

Punk is a very hard sell for me, but I don’t think even I could pass up the Hitman attire.

Guys... stop getting so excited. We all know what's going to happen here: Mattel will hold back on the most wanted versions (hello, Steiners!!) and release an Elite of his modern/return look, plus a couple of Basics. Meanwhile, Punk will quit or get fired and we'll get the old "We had some great figures planned - but unfortunately..." 🤦‍♂️

Considering I never thought we’d see another WWE figure of him again, they could only get to to release an Elite of him in a white tee shirt and jeans from last night and I’d still be so excited to buy it. Haha

Depends on how much time Mattel get to make his figures since Punks a ticking time bomb.

You guys just know they’re going to reuse those old heads instead of making a new one to get it out in time. So, I guess, temper expectations.

The E16 Punk head is really good, just the way Mattel painted it is awful.

They should just do GH figures first. Elite 16 with DIJ and double elbows. Defining Moments Pipebomb RSE. Throw him in an elite PPV wave as a long hair throwback.

I really want the Bret hart attire elite. Think they’ll shoot it into a niche tertiary exclusive line for some reason but hey ho.

[kiloinnorcal]

Punk is in the same category as the Steiner Bros.

Better get as many out as you can, because you never know when they're gonna be blacklisted again for another decade.

[CM Tusk]

His Basic 33 scan is probably my favorite so I’d be ok if they use it.

That’s what I was thinking. Just get that E16 Punk put back out there even if it’s not the new FX scan. Always can swap a new one on later.

[TheHitmanKid]

Just none in long tights. I didn't like any of those looks; if he ever wears it in WWE.

[crush]

I'll buy pretty much any, but my big wants (keeping in mind that comeback looks are going to take priority) are:

-MTITB 2011 Ultimate (Frankly, I think Mattel should get this on MC ASAP)
-Pipe Bomb RSC Defining Moments
-An “OVW Punk” in the Legends line that’s a stealth later period ROH Punk (similar to the WCW AJ essentially being an early TNA figure), which would nicely complement the Jazwares Basketball shorts Punk that hopefully still sees the light of day.

[Vamp55]

E16 upgrade to Ultimate is where I want them to start.
Then Hitman tribute gear in Ultimate.
Beyond that, I’ll leave it up to the capable people at Mattel.

[theberb217]

I will buy literally every elite cm punk that comes out. The more flashbacks the better tho.

[marino13]

I'm hoping they already have a few lined up for Greatest Hits re-releases. Would love to get a FX head, double elbows, and swap-able hands. Especially in his MITB gear.


Then do a UE based on his first match back, like they did with Cody.

Agreed

Wondering if they go the Cody route and make his first figure an Ultimate Edition on Mattel Creations

I think they will definitely go that route.

Punk was a much bigger deal than Cody when you compare their initial runs with the company so I think they will waste no time getting out a premium-priced figure.
