Mark Henry Done With AEW

[Fighter Hayabusa]

Henry has confirmed his contract expires 5/28 and will not be renewing it. That opens up the possibility of him returning to WWE or at the very least sign a deal that allows for figures. Theres not a lot that Mattel didn’t cover but definitely would like to see some redos in be GH line. The Fan Central Sexual Chocolate and the Decade of Domination Nation of Domination are two that desperately need to be re-released. I wouldn’t mind the Hershey Kiss attire to be done as well.

Hall of Pain with updated scan and articulation please.

They might be able to repurpose some of the suited Andre parts for a "fake retirement" salmon colored jacket Mark Henry. Mark wore a tie that night, so that would require new tooling, unless they go with soft goods.

I could see them adding the Decade of Dominance NOD Mark Henry to the MNW or Greatest Hits line. That was a hard to find figure, and would be ripe for a reissue. Maybe we will see Paul Wight / Big Show back in the same manner? Getting the Giant as both NWO and WCW versions would be a boost for the MNW line.

[Fighter Hayabusa]

Maybe instead of weights they can give NOD Henry the “Buy Any Means Necessary” shirt. Unless the Black Panthers slogan is too controversial for Mattel.

Yes. I never got decade of domination mark and would like to without spending secondary market prices. I also think The Giant needs to be redone with a better likeness. Current elite Giant looks cartoonish and had a different expression when he was nwo.

NOD with updated tech

[Mongo Bears]

This would be good news
I never got my hands on NOD Henry.

[CM Tusk]

An Ultimate of his World Title reign would be pretty sweet.

"Retirement" announcement from 2013 as a Defining Moments series 3 or 4 would be sick.

[MKSavage]

Not a big fan of the guy, so I'd only get an updated version of his NOD figure, especially since they've released the rest of the members recently. I might get this version, but it would depend on how it looks.

NOD retro, plz

Did working for AEW really prevent him from getting figures?

Being on a Legends deal has never been an issue over there, I don't think him being a free agent will make him anymore of a priority for WWE.

[Rocky Balboa]

I'd take a salmon suit one but otherwise I'm good.

[shanieomaniac]

NOD Mark Henry in a rerelease line needs to be a priority. And fix the colors while we are at it.

I guess in this case it did. Not sure why when Sting and Jarrett leave the company production on everything has to cease immediately but Adam Cole can be working without a contract for months and still have his figure come out several months after he debuted in AEW or guys like Gunn, Bret, Jake, and DDP can work for or make appearances in AEW but still have a merch deal with WWE.

[rkmo: Autonomous Meat Shield]

His last appearance on WWE television when Randy Orton punked him out. Because that's what WWE and their fans thought of him back then.

Need a 2006 Henry

I don’t think there’s anything that would interest me except for salmon suit.
