I’d like Doom Simmons and Reed That’s a big want for me too, I had no hope previously but they do seem to be in the process of signing a bunch of lower tier performers to legends deals, so fingers crossed. |

Even without Butch they can do it. Just make Ron and give him an extra masked head. They both had roughly the same skin tone, were about the same size, and had mustaches. Buy two and you have the masked version of the team and hope they make Butch down the road. |

For me it'd have to be someone that pretty much looked the same their whole career. Saw someone above say Taker - my knock on that is how many times Mattel has jacked his likeness and how many looks need to be redone (Summerslam 2000 & Summerslam 2001 for starters).
R-Truth is a guy I could see not needing many more figures. His knockoff Judgment Day stick currently could be fun but literally his whole career as K-Kwik or R-Truth he's practically had the same attire.
I dont know how many more Big Bossman attires you could do (maybe the '98 return with face mask?)
Id say Ken Shamrock but Mattel needs to take another crack at his red (not pink) trunks.
Can't really think of too many Brock attires missing (personally id buy a 2002/2003 white track pants and shirt elite release but we've pretty much gotten everything else in his career)

Goldberg. That said, he hasn't had that many looks, so really the figures we have seems to have done him justice, in my opinion. To be honest, a LOT of the legends that they have had from start to finish are fairly well covered. While maybe not every single look has ever been done, but we have had so many of some of these wrestlers, that if we don't get many more, I am fully happy with what we have had. We never got an Elite black trunks/'03 Goldberg, which was a pretty major look. And I'd have really liked another UE figure too... '03/'04 look (either black trunks or black and white), with track-pants and "Next" shirt (similar to the recent UE Legends Rock figure). Would have been cool. Even with Goldbergs most basic and well known 98 look they have never really captured his look properly. Thicker torso and legs and more tan and intense look. It seems it would be an easy look to capture and it just hasn't been done properly yet. Even ultimate. |

Lower guys like...Nikolai Volkoff are all set They still need to do a Million Dollar Corporation version. They never did Nikolai in his USSR shirt. Not sure if they would do that now. But the jacket was more of the slick era and I would rather see the wrestlemania 1 through 2 era with Blassie. |

George Steele needs a Superstars, possibly a retro if he doesn’t already have one, but there’s really nothing else they can do with him. If we are talking about being added to other lines. Than the Iron Sheik and Bob Orton needs Superstars figures and Coliseum Collection figures. Just Looks/attires here’s a few must haves still - Roddy Piper - green plaid print Paul Orndorff - black trunks/robe Bob Orton - WM1 & red trunks. John Studd - blue tights and masked Executioner. Don Muraco - black trunks & boots , navy blue trunks & black boots. Bob Backlund - 70’s champ . Longer hair in green, red or blue trunks. Billy Graham - green tye-dye tights & yellow boots. Red tight and orange boots.
Tito Santana - blue trunks and black boots
Superfly - still need Tiger print trunks & leopard print trunks. Greg Valentine - blue trunks and black boots
Brutus Beefcake - dream team attire.
Probably more than just one or two attires for each of these. Billy Graham had a number of great looks they still need to do. Definitely need an IC Champ Chico, but I would also like to see his three El Matador looks, too. If not all three, then at least the main green one, and the alternate black one. Greg had some good looks they could still do, not only from the dream team years, but his previous IC title reign, the late 90s shin guard era, and another R&B look, too. Brutus had a number of cool Barber attires, would like to see another one or two of those. |

I'm looking at this from a strictly "they did every look" ring attire pov.
I feel like The Rock is pretty much done. Maybe there's a time he wore teal trim on his logo or something like that that we don't have, but we have all of his looks outside of very minor color variations. All his different haircuts, all his various tattoo designs. We will still obviously get Rock figures, but they'll be minor updates of existing stuff.
Terry Funk probably wore some color variations of his standard basic tights, but he's someone I'm pretty content with. Unless we're going into street clothes, which I consider outside of the scope of this post. That said, if they made a Funk in cowboy boots and jeans, sign me up! I'll have to find a cheap 6 inch scale horse figure for him to punch!
Mick Foley/Mankind I'm pretty content with. The upcoming WCW Cactus Jack could even double as a very early jobber/AWA Foley if you take the shirt off. If we wanna get technical, I guess we could still use a referee WrestleMania XV Foley.
Steve Austin feels complete. Anything going forward is just going to be different T-shirts and jeans/shorts/jackets. And Austin had like, 4,000 different shirts. I'm pretty content with his pre-WWE looks, although I'm sure there's a million generic tights variations we haven't received.
Greg Valentine has pretty much one look outside of Rythym N Blues, with just different color variations. We have both yellow and black tights, that feels like enough.

He is perfect for the coliseum collection and give us his ussr turtleneck. I collected all the LJNs back in the day and when I think of that time period I think of guys like him, sheik, jyd, Studd etc. part of the reason I’m so annoyed with the hart foundation selection. At least put them in red tights to be of that era. Easy pass for me. |

Unpopular Opinion: I don’t think there’s anyone they should be fully “done” with. As long as the line keeps going with the same key form factors, you’re always going to have new collectors coming in and it would be insane for them to declare someone “off the table” because they were made a decade before. Now, I do think they should take long pauses on certain people and looks. For example, after flooding so many Hogans in the last two years for the anniversary stuff, they really should limit the Hogans over the next 2-3 years.

I am begging for them to be done with Hogan and Warrior. That is of course unless they want to do a Stand Back Hogan, I'd buy one of those You want them to be done with two of the biggest names in the sport??? Let's look at Hulk Hogan alone. 1991 Hulk Hogan With The Red Bandana With The Winged Eagle Around His Waist MOC Wrestlemania 8 Rerelease Of Wrestlemania 3 Release Of Red And Black nWo Hulk Hogan With The Tan And New Torso Release Of Mr. America With The Tan |

They have done sheik in trunks so many times but only once in The more iconic (in my opinion) jeans/pants. I hope that look gets made in The coliseum collection ultimate.

I'm glad they're coming out for people that want em but they don't excite me much. I've already got two ultimate Hogans and only need one Warrior that I'm not in any hurry to get. |

With new technology, new elbows..face printing etc...I dont think anyone is "done". There's always someone that can use an update.

Prime hogan for me was 88 to 91. I've only seen two figures that properly captured that look properly. Desert storm Hulk and the elite with the war bonnet. I'd love a Hulking up expression figure and a Hogan must pose figure. They are the crucial missing pieces to me. I'd also love a full bandana in red with Hulkamania logo in yellow. That was his coolest look in 88/89 and it needs to be made. |
