i was hoping to see jade cargill or naomi in the rumble line. the decrease in womens figures is crazy, so many fire attires. I agree we gotta start getting women in more than just the main elite line. Not only does the vast majority of the women's roster need updated figures with double joints but there are plenty that haven't even had a figure at all, Let alone catching up on new attires. It's kinda bonkers how poorly the women are represented across these other lines. Yet here we are talking about the millionth Hogan because his bandana in the slightest different shade of red hasn't been made yet. |

Steve claimed they had a Naomi that was supposed to be released in Royal Rumble series before she left and it was replaced by Brie Bella. They should’ve tried to get that figure out to hold us over until a new Naomi is made.
It feels like this year has been over run by Legends in every main wave. I don’t quite understand it given the Legends have their own wave and anytime I go to Target or Walmart they are the only figures left on pegs. I’m not saying to stop Legends figures but I don’t think they need to be more than 1 figure a series.

Fair enough but that in itself is still not helping to complete the current womens roster. We just had gotten a Charolette in elite 92 and The U.E. plus it's re-release. And Beth is fine but selfishly i'd rather it have gone to a current roster talent. It's more so the moral of it all. It's hard to be a fan of womens figures when our releases are far more limited than the men. Tiffany for example has had banger gear after banger gear. But I can't look at that and be like "oh, yea she's totally getting figures in all these gears." Because history shows she'll be lucky to get more than 4 elites throughout her entire career. Look at Nattie, granted she isn't a tip top star but she's been consistent presence in the division for over a decade and only has 2 elites. Two. Tamina has gone her entire decade long career with zero elites and only 3 figures period. (And I don't count past basics as elites) I just wish we had a way to pump them out a little faster. I also get the impression that former woman aren't being pursued for licensing deals as hard as the men are either. We're 4 waves into Monday Night Wars and not a single woman from the attitude era has been represented. Not Ivory, Jacqueline, Victoria, Jazz. Ive eqtched enough of their interviews to know some of these women wpuld gladly have a figure made. Aside from Torrie not one woman from the Ruthless Aggression era has agreed to a licensed deal? Not McCool, not Kelly Kelly, no one? I get that womens collectors are in the minority but that doesn't stop me from seeing MNW wave after wave or U.E. wave after wave without any women and being discouraged when they double back on a Becky or Charloette or give us a one off white outfit for Rhea. Anyways, I've been collecting long enough to know I'm kicking a dead horse so rant over. |

I collect both men and the women and my women’s side is getting outdated. I was excited to see which women they’d do in the rumble line because i loved the attires this year and the year before. last year survivor series bianca’s team had some really cool attires too. just sucks in my opinion. |

I don’t understand this at all. |

I’m still salty we never got a Kabuki Warriors Kairi, and that they skipped over all of Asuka’s 2021-2022 attires (E87 was based off 2020). |

Dont understand why not. I see legends mainly shelf warming around my area. I understand why the mainstream legends get so many figures but they give some unknown people figures just because they were fans of them. and they just sit there. |

I’m not saying they don’t sell i’m just saying there doesn’t have to be so many inclusions when they have their own series. |

Paul Bearer was just in 106, Executioner/ Terry Gordy was in 108, Bruno in 110, and Sandman in 111. Legends may not be the main focus but have never been fully taken out. |

Chelsea from RR '24 would be awesome! She was such a highlight of the women's match, that in and of itself was an A+ match!

I don't disagree at all, but in a match that, overall, was just great from start to finish, that Chels stood out and was so great, I'd love to see that figure soon! And going by your logic, just last year alone we got a Batista and a Brock (that had just had Elites released; year before was Vader who also had a couple of figures released too). She is fast becoming the female R-Truth, talent that I am just mesmerized by whenever they are on my screen and are such a total stopdown. |

She has had some amazing Rumble returns over the years. |

Carlos Colon
Perro Aguayo
Canek
Blue Demon Jr
Octagon
Savio Vega
Pierroth
Instead we'll get the 2000th HBK and HHH

Shawn Michaels - 2006
Razor Ramon - 1993
Dakota Kai - 2023
CM Punk - 2024
If/When he's back under contract one day, my number 1 choice for the Rumble line would be Royal Rumble 2006 Edge.

Gonna base this off the talent pool they have and their love for certain wrestlers lately.
Cody Rhodes (2024)
Bret Hart (1994)
Seth Rollins (2019)
Triple H (2002)
I don’t build a figures are usually old molds repainted why not Shawn Michaels from 1995
