There needs to be AT LEAST 3 new Kurts, otherwise Mattel are once again wasting him.

Im hoping that they throw alot of CM Punks at us. Ultimate Edition Money in the Bank 2011 being the holy grail. From The Vault CM Punk Elite Series 1 would be great also.

Iβll be working during the panel unfortunately so Thursday will be hard catching up on a million pages here If the MNW line continues, I can definitely see them inserting an nWo Muta. He wasn't a major player in that role, but was definitely on Nitro a few times which is all that probably matters.

Bring on the Re-releases!
I think they are going to go full bore with the re-releases- with 4 lines dedicated solely to re-releases (Greatest Hits, Legends Greatest Hits, Greatest Hits Ultimates & From the Vault), I think its a safe bet that a good chunk of the reveals will be re-releases. With that in mind, I would like to see re-releases of the following figures:
Legends 4 Blue singlet Mr. Perfect (with corrected body parts- doubtful but one can dream) Madusa head tights Jake Roberts
Announcer Gorilla Monsoon Elite 29 Andre the Giant
Also, I hope they add a 5th re-release line, one dedicated to Superstars figures. Based on how Superstars collectors have been treated, this line is needed to give people a second chance to get the figures they missed out on the first time around due to the terrible distribution of this line. We Need It, We Want It- Make It Happen Mattel!!
As far as new releases, I think Haku is a good bet but if only recently signed a deal then we will only see an announcement as it would be to soon to see any renders.

Thinking Haku could easily be done as a two-in-one figure.
Mattel have been pretty good with the swappable hair pieces. Have one giant afro, and one shorter hair.
For Meng/WWE return Haku, they need to give him those gigantic pants. Those would probably look weird as a plastic mold, they're just too big. Make them soft goods. Take them off, and you have a plain purple trunks Haku or any of the crazy island pattern tights he wore.
Haku wrestled barefoot and Meng wore boots, so that could be an issue. We haven't seen swappable feet in the Elite line, but they've done it a couple times for Superstars, so it shouldn't be too much of an issue.

Would like to add Jim Neidhart from 97 to the list.

I really hope they donβt rerelease that Mr.Perfect, Iβd rather it be Mr.Perfect in his Starrcade β97 attire with the black backing. We need a thicker molded torso and legs.

That original Legends figure is very outdated by current Mattel standards so I wouldn't mind if they revisited it with more accurate parts and a better facial likeness. To make it at least slightly different, maybe they can make the back design on his singlet black instead of yellow. Not a fan of the rubber top on his latest release although I will admit it looks fine if you have the Intercontinental title displayed around his waist.

Perfect might not require the hot dog treatment, but he absolutely deserves at least a decent tan. I want this figure too and he could also come with a resized WCW US title. The WCW version is the best of both worlds imo, itβs practically the same blue, but also a new attire that we all want. I also agree about some new sculpts, but I like the ones we got. We just need the tan and new body mold.

Had to look this up as I am not familiar with that attire as I did not watch WCW during that time period. I would take this attire over a L4 re-release permitting that (as you mentioned) it had body parts that are more accurate to how Curt Hennig actually looked at that time. I also prefer the black patch on the back over the yellow patch.

I'm hoping we can get another ultimate of Hall and Nash, versions of their RSC exclusive attires. Those two probably going to the Greatest Hits MNW/Attitude Era line Won't complain if they do, more so the Nash to include the black vest with red tassels? Also maybe that nWo Wolfpack jersey, of course Nash would have the blonde har too.

Iβd like a β96 Souled Out Nash too with all the metal rhinestone designs he had on his pants. It would be cool if Mattel gave us blonde or brunette variants.
