As recently announced at San Diego Comic-Con 2014, Mattel will finally be partnering with Hulk Hogan to release Mattel WWE Hulk Hogan action figures! While the possibilities are endless as to which figures could be released as Hogan has so many different, iconic looks, we were treated to a few of them at Comic-Con. One is an 80’s version of the Hulkster, and another looks to be a modern day version of everyone’s favorite legendary wrestler.
This basic version looks to have a sculpt better reflecting how Hulk Hogan looks now, in all of his years young. With black pants, a red shirt and a prototype sculpt, it’d be perfect for anyone looking for a new General Manager of their wrestling figures. A modern day Hulk Hogan would make many wrestling figure fans thrilled.
The first ever Mattel WWE Elite Hulk Hogan will better reflect one of Hogan’s most popular eras, his time as WWF Champion in the late 80’s. With Elite articulation and a body mold to specifically fit Hulk Hogan like no other, this will also come with the style of WWF Championship belt at the time. It’s the definitive Hulk Hogan for any Hulkamaniacs who grew up in the 80’s.
With the nWo, Hogan’s 2002 WWE return and all of WCW, New Japan and beyond, there are tons of styles and looks that Mattel can produce throughout Hogan’s career. This is just the beginning, and fans should look forward to more Hulk Hogan figures to come in the future.

Mattel and WWE began the 2014 San Diego Comic Con with a bang! Showing off some of their best and latest wrestling figures, they offered an appetizer of awesome to everyone expecting big things to come from them in the following days. Including Mattel WWE Elite 30 including The Road Warriors Hawk and Animal, Brock Lesnar, Batista, Lex Luger and Ryback, Mattel WWE Elite 31 with The Rock, Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Kane, Dean Ambrose and Vader, Mattel WWE Series 43 with Eva Marie, Dolph Ziggler, Mark Henry, John Cena, Rob Van Dam and Rey Mysterio, Mattel WWE Series 44 with Goldust, Seth Rollins, Kane, Big E, Titus O’Neil and Randy Orton, Mattel WWE Battle Packs 30 with Dean Ambrose and Jake the Snake Roberts, Xavier Woods and R Truth, Brock Lesnar and Undertaker, and Mattel WWE Battle Packs 31 with John Cena and Ultimate Warrior, Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara, and Luke Harper and Erick Rowan of the Wyatt Family.

Mattel and WWE have made huge, strong showings at the San Diego Comic-Con since partnering up in 2010, and 2014 looks to be no different. With perhaps their most exciting panel ever, the 2014 San Diego Comic-Con brings top WWE Superstars and Legends to the stage and multiplies the excitement! The official statement reads:
Thursday, July 24 • 10:15am – 11:15am
Mattel and WWE: Over-the-Top-Action!
Two of the world’s top entertainment companies have teamed up for the ultimate panel at SDCC. WWE Superstars and Mattel designers will talk about the all-new WWE Network and give exclusive sneak peeks of Mattel’s upcoming WWE figure releases! Incredible guest appearances by Hulk Hogan, Daniel Bryan, Michael Cole, Paul Heyman, and you never know what else will be unveiled. This is a panel you won’t want to miss, brother!
The inclusion of Hulk Hogan opens a floodgate of questions that Mattel will hopefully (and likely) answer. With so many different iconic looks throughout his legendary career, a Mattel WWE Hulk Hogan figure comes with endless possibilities. With the nWo, Hulk Hogan’s classic runs as WWE Champion or even his return to the WWE in 2002, Hogan will have the more impact on the Mattel WWE line than arguably anyone produced as a Mattel WWE figure before him.
Daniel Bryan is currently on the WWE ‘disabled list’ but after his appearance at Money in the Bank 2014, is clearly still beloved. His appearance at SDCC 2014 is his only announced appearance for WWE in the near future, so it will give fans a chance to see him again and to check out more of his updated (and spot on) Mattel WWE figures.
Michael Cole has history with Daniel Bryan and the entire WWE Universe as they love to hate him but deep down, wouldn’t be able to live without him. With only one Mattel WWE figure to date, it’s possible that he could be announced in another line or just be showing up to give fans a hard time. Depending on which of Michael Cole’s diverse personalities we are getting, he will add an element of fun.
Paul Heyman, legendary in his own right, will likely have plenty to say about Brock Lesnar, the Undertaker, and even Daniel Bryan. With underlying conflict floating through the air, the pot will likely be stirred by Heyman and wherever he is, his ‘clients’ can’t be far behind. With two Mattel WWE figure treatments to his name, Paul Heyman can always be due for more.
Also, Mattel will be offering sneak peeks at upcoming Mattel WWE figures as they do every year. With so many amazing wrestling figures produced so far, fans still have loads of legends and modern superstars they want to see given the treatment. San Diego Comic-Con is always a big step in filling that need for collectors and fans!
Mattel WWE Defining Moments Ric Flair wrestling action figure!
The legendary Ric Flair has finally been announced as a Mattel WWE wrestling action figure! The Nature Boy has been noticeably absent from the Mattel WWE line up to this point due to inactivity with the company. That has all changed seemingly over night as Flair, who returned to the WWE what seemed like ages ago, has finally been secured by Mattel with a contract and his first Mattel WWE figure has been revealed! The Defining Moments line, previously ended at Series 5, will make an exception for Ric Flair with a surprise exclusive featuring Flair at his absolute best in Defining Moments packaging.

With blue ring attire with his initials sketched into the trunks and on the back of those tall, blue and white laced boots, Flair is one of the all time greats and is finally represented perfectly in a Mattel WWE wrestling action figure.

The Nature Boy wouldn’t be the Nature Boy without a wildly elaborate, detailed entrance robe and Mattel has gone above and beyond to give Flair that in this special wrestling figure treatment. With white trim and a black and white pattern, this robe fits the Nature Boy like a million dollar glove and defines him perfectly. Also included is the World Heavyweight Championship, marking just one of the important titles Flair has held in his career as a 16 time world champion.

Evolution has officially reunited as an entire unit in the WWE with Ric Flair returning on the April 28th, 2014 WWE Monday Night RAW! Triple H, Randy Orton and Batista decided to reform the legendary group after WrestleMania XXX to deal with what they considered the unruly and wild group, The Shield. It remains to be seen as to whether or not Evolution will successfully stop The Shield in their tracks and if they do, whether or not they will remain a unit or disband. While the WWE Universe tries to unravel the mystery that is Evolution, they can re-create their sudden and surprising dominance through Mattel WWE figures easily with both current and upcoming Mattel WWE action figures!
Mattel WWE Elite 28 Triple H Wrestling Figure!
Triple H has been spearheading the 2014 Evolution reunion with his position as a member of the WWE’s authority. Serving as COO and now more often as an active wrestler, The Game has set aside his need to be the King of Kings and joined forces with Batista and Randy Orton to try and stop Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins. His Mattel WWE Elite 28 wrestling figure perfectly and accurately represents his modern day look as a performer and as the WWE’s harsh and intense authority figure.
Mattel WWE Series 37 Randy Orton!
Evolution’s youngest member and arguably its most successful over the past decade, Randy Orton comes off his WWE World Heavyweight Championship loss only to gain more momentum as his old group reunites. In Mattel WWE Series 37, wrestling figure fans get a WrestleMania-ready version of Randy Orton, representative of his dominant time leading up to WrestleMania 25.
Mattel WWE Elite Series 30 Revealed!
The recently announced Mattel WWE Elite Series 30 wrestling action figures features many Legends that have the WWE Universe excited, but it will also feature the first Elite version of Batista since WWE Elite Series 6. The figure will likely reflect Batista’s return to the WWE in 2014, including his Royal Rumble win and his disapproval of the WWE and its fans. If those very same fans who loath Batista are lucky, he may even have some indicator representing him as a member of Evolution in his latest Elite.
Ric Flair Rejoins Evolution in 2014! Just in Time for a Mattel WWE Figure!
Ric Flair made an appearance on WWE Monday Night Raw on April 28th, 2014 to give Evolution his well wishes, only to turn and shake hands with the Hounds of Justice, The Shield! Whether it’s a modern day version of the legendary Superstar or a classic version featuring one of his many intensely colored robes, the WWE Universe and Mattel WWE collectors alike have been clamoring for a Mattel WWE Ric Flair figure since the launch of the line! With another appearance on WWE television, they can only hope that an actual figure is now even closer to a reality.
The Thorn in the Side of Evolution – The Shield!
If any Mattel WWE figure collectors or fans in the WWE Universe are simply unimpressed by Evolution’s display of power, they can stand behind The Shield with many, many Mattel WWE wrestling figures! Including Mattel WWE Elite versions of Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns, fans can easily enter their wrestling figure matches from outside the arena with plenty of options.

The latest Mattel WWE Ringside Collectibles Exclusive, ‘Brahma Bull’ The Rock!
He is the Great One! Now, for the millions and millions of The Rock’s fans, a version will be released representing the time frame of when he stepped out on his own and became one of the biggest superstars in the history of professional wrestling! The latest Mattel WWE Ringside Collectibles Exclusive is The Rock…The Brahma Bull!
Showcasing The Rock’s look from the Attitude Era, the figure is based on The Rock’s Summerslam 1998 Intercontinental Championship defense against Triple H. With trunks taken from around that time frame to best represent The Rock, the figure will embody the style and look that only Rocky could make possible.
The Rock vs. Triple H at Summerslam 1998!
The Rock faced off with Triple H in a grueling ladder match for the Intercontinental Championship. The Intercontinental Championship, shown in this promo image with a purple strap, will be included in the Mattel WWE Brahma Bull Rock Exclusive! Wrestling figure fans are now offered this style of the Intercontinental Championship with an Elite figure for only the second time, and the only time with the purple strap.
The yellow ladder from the match between The Rock and Triple H at Summerslam 1998!
A ladder match would be incomplete without a ladder, so fans of The Rock will also be lucky enough to receive an accessory of the very yellow ladder used in the Summerslam 1998 match! A unique look that has seldom been seen since, this version of a ladder will look as authentic as possible for wrestling figures!
The only released version of The Rock during his time in The Nation of Domination and one of the very few released versions of The Rock during the thick of the Attitude Era, the Mattel WWE Ringside Collectibles Brahma Bull Exclusive will remind fans what it means to know their roll and shut their mouth. With the opportunity to defend against D-Generation X and bring in a new, edgier and more intense era of wrestling, The Rock is a staple of WWE history and the Mattel WWE Brahma Bull Rock Exclusive proves it.

Two of the most iconic faces to ever grace the WWE Universe are Hulk Hogan and John Cena. With Hulk Hogan’s return to a WWE ring on the way to WrestleMania XXX, he will be hosting the big event and has constantly eluded to the fact that he is not afraid of getting physical with any WWE Superstar that thinks he has lost a step. John Cena has never shown any aggression towards Hulk Hogan, but he has stated over the years that Hogan is one of his all time favorites, and with his problems he continues to have with the Wyatt Family, who better to call on than the Immortal Hulk Hogan for help? With a Hulk Hogan Mattel WWE figure on the horizon, fans will soon be able to re-enact Hulk Hogan rescuing John Cena from the Wyatt Family, whether it happens in the WWE or not!
Mattel WWE Series 39 John Cena!
John Cena sees more Mattel WWE releases than almost every other WWE Superstar, and his latest is a perfect representation of the leader of the CeNation. With his perfectly cropped haircut, huge muscles and shorts ring attire in WWE Series 39, John Cena is ready, will and able to defend his own honor anytime, any place. He will never admit to being anything other than indestructible, and despite the fear of the Wyatt Family he is experiencing, he would never ask for help from Hulk Hogan. If Hogan were to show up in his defense, however, Cena would be hard pressed not to accept.
Mattel WWE Series 39 Bray Wyatt!
Bray Wyatt is terrifying both John Cena and the WWE Universe with his cult-like attacks and targeting of Cena himself. With his first Mattel WWE release in Series 39, he is not only making his presence known in the ring, but in the wrestling figure world. The figure is a must have for those looking to really put the pressure on their John Cena collection. After all, one Bray Wyatt shouldn’t be able to successfully defeat over 100 John Cena figures, right?…Right?
Mattel WWE Hulk Hogan wrestling figure!
Hulk Hogan has returned to the WWE and has (so far) stayed out of most of the affairs of the WWE Superstars. Looking as if he hasn’t changed a bit, Hulk Hogan could shock and surprise fans with a return to the ring in 2014 if he is in as good a shape as he claims to be. If he does return to the ring, a Mattel WWE Hulk Hogan figure featuring his modern day look would be a necessity. Wrestling figure fans could face off their Hulk Hogan figure with any Superstar on the WWE roster that also has a figure, leaving an endless amount of possible fantasy match-ups. A boa accessory, bandana or sunglasses wouldn’t hurt, either.
Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Erick Rowan & Luke Harper!
If John Cena were indeed to receive back-up from Hulk Hogan in his challenges against Bray Wyatt, the Wyatt Family would be sure to follow. Luke Harper and Erick Rowan have been part of the relentless attacks against Cena and would defend their Wyatt Family leader to the absolute end, even if it meant having to stand up to an icon like Hulk Hogan. With a Mattel WWE release in Battle Packs 28, both Harper and Rowan can join in on any conflict of Bray Wyatt’s against WWE figures, including Hogan.

Since returning to the WWE, both Sheamus and Christian have not been able to escape each other’s sights. Week after week, they both get under one another’s skin with Sheamus keeping Christian from reaching new heights in the WWE and Christian taking out his frustrations with unnecessary roughness and ruthless aggression on Sheamus. A classic feud has thus been born, much more meaningful and entertaining than the last time the two Superstars met. With plenty to offer from Mattel for WWE action figures of both Captain Charisma and the Celtic Warrior, you can either bring their feud to an end or keep it going forever with endless possibilities.
Mattel WWE Elite 20 Christian!
Perhaps Christian would do better with sensibilities closer to his old style, as featured in Mattel WWE Elite 20. The ‘old school’ Christian Flashback comes with Elite articulation and an aggressive style that was coupled with a sense of humor unlike any other. With removable sunglasses, long hair, and posing for the benefit of those with flash photography, Christian’s sillier days may have posed more of a speedy challenge for Sheamus as opposed to his current heavy, aggressive style. Most likely, Christian feels he is more successful taking his challenges more seriously.
Mattel WWE Elite 25 Sheamus!
The Mattel WWE Elite 25 Sheamus is perfect for any wrestling figure fans or members of the WWE Universe looking to end the feud with Christian with a swift, well placed Brogue Kick. In the ring Christian may come back despite being knocked down time and time again, but it may be more difficult for him when faced with such a well made wrestling figure. Complete with removable shirt and Celtic cross necklace, this Sheamus wrestling figure embodies what it means to be behind the man that loves to fight.
Mattel WWE Series 39 Christian!
The latest Mattel WWE Christian in Series 39 shows off his new smug, aggressive behavior with a new hairstyle and an over-confident smile. With purple tights, Christian has changed colors as often as a chameleon over the years, but still remained the same skilled animal in the wild of the WWE underneath. This figure will represent his recent ruthlessness and relentless attacks on Sheamus and anything else standing between he and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
Mattel WWE Series 38 Sheamus!
The Mattel WWE Series 38 Sheamus figure includes a confident smirk and wears newly designed attire, the same style he has been wearing since his return to the WWE ring. This accurately depicts Sheamus (aside from the happy smile) during his current struggles with Christian and his constant need to take out his frustrations. Sheamus is powerful and has so far, always managed to prevail and this figure makes it clear he shows no signs of stopping.
Whether you want Sheamus to end Christian’s obnoxious reign or terror or Christian to put Sheamus down for the count once and for all, the Ringside Collectibles Exclusive Jakks 20 Piece Accessory Pack gives you all the necessary tools to have a memorable, hardcore fight. Reminiscent of the matches Sheamus and Christian have been having, the inclusion of a table cart, steel steps, traffic cones and kendo sticks will offer additional combat options.
