The latest in intense teams and rivalries are arriving with Mattel WWE Battle Packs 34! The Mattel WWE Battle Packs 34 lineup has been announced. It includes:
Hornswoggle vs. El Torito
The Road Warriors (Hawk & Animal)
Rusev & Lana
Hornswoggle and El Torito faced off with each other, showing a meaner, darker side of everyone’s favorite extremely tiny leprechaun. The rivalry culminated in a miniature match not seen in a WWE ring in a long time. A new Hornswoggle Mattel WWE figure will likely showcase many of his tattoos and the shirtless, ‘bountiful’ in-ring look he sported. With a few different colors, fans are likely hoping for a white scheme El Torito here.
The legendary tag team the Road Warriors can never be beaten in style and intensity. Both Hawk and Animal as the Legion of Doom will remain one of the most dominant tag teams of all time. This being their first time as basic Mattel WWE figures, the trademark Road Warriors shoulder pads will likely be included.
The ravishing Russian Lana is the highlight of a Mattel WWE Battle Pack with Rusev as it’s her first time appearing in the Mattel WWE line. Diva collectors and fans of the beauty alike are excited to see which suit she’ll be included in when figured into the line. Rusev’s crushing power will also be represented in his latest Mattel WWE figure, possibly with a new look on his face to showcase some clenched teeth or even more intensity.

Seeing an opportunity to gain the power, fame, fortune and glory of any WWE Superstar before him and trying to make it better and bigger than ever, Seth Rollins made a deal with the devil to become the ‘Plan B’ for the WWE Authority. Turning on his Shield brethren Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns, he chose the easy way out and the path to the top that only a coward would choose. However, he let everyone know he is no coward and was actually more of a genius for taking an approach that would lead him to immediate strength and victory with the help of The Authority. With the wrestling ability to back up his two-faced plans, Seth Rollins threw away his Shield stylings and opted for a newer, futuristic look as he stepped forward. Fans immediately wanted a Mattel WWE Seth Rollins figure that feature his new, flexible chest plate and ring attire.
Looking similar to a super hero, or more appropriately, a super villain, Seth Rollins captured the Money in the Bank briefcase with the help of The Authority and was immediately catapulted to the top of the WWE mountain. His attire shows off a darker, more intense side, one that doesn’t take kindly to criticisms of his decisions and one that will stop at nothing to gain any advantage in becoming WWE World Heavyweight Champion. A massive, silver buckled belt makes Rollins look as though he deserves something even more prestigious around his waist.
When the action gets too intense for even Seth Rollins to handle, his upper body gear is then removed and he looks to compete with just ring tights and gloves. Whether or not Mattel can manage such a skin-tight removable upper body piece remains to be seen, but they will likely create a molded piece for Seth Rollins and a possible alternate version that is ring ready at any time. Either way, Seth Rollins new Mattel WWE figures will be highly sought after by fans who are looking to gain a sneaky competitor in their Mattel WWE collection.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 wrestling action figures!
The Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 set features some of the hottest tag teams and rivalries in the WWE today! With newcomers, close siblings and deep rooted grudge matches, the variety is clear this time around. Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 includes:
Los Matadores
Cody Rhodes & Goldust (The Rhodes Brothers)
CM Punk vs. Ryback
Since debuting in the WWE, Los Matadores have brought a stark contrast to the seriousness of the tag team division’s mainstays like The Shield and the Wyatt Family. With wildly exaggerated movesets and eccentric bull fighter outfits, they have become fan favorites among the WWE’s younger generation of fans. With their bull El Torito accompanying them to the ring, their matches have proved entertaining. The Mattel WWE Los Matadores figures will likely feature their pink face masks and current outfits. El Torito is also rumored to be released in an upcoming Mattel WWE Series set, so fans who love Los Matadores will be able to re-create their unique brand of silly action.
Cody Rhodes and Goldust enjoyed a renaissance as they teamed together and captured the WWE Tag Team Championships. Brothers who have long wanted to work together but have been unable to, Cody Rhodes and Goldust took advantage of the opportunity they were given and had a successful run. However, they have since lost their championship glory and Cody has grown increasingly frustrated with his brother. While they haven’t quite moved on from each other, the outlook doesn’t look great. Maybe if they saw their triumphant team-up immortalized in Mattel WWE wrestling figure form they would be more apt to work out their differences.
CM Punk has not been seen nor heard from in the WWE since the 2014 Royal Rumble. Ryback, who once feuded heavily with CM Punk, has moved on to specialize in tag team wrestling with Curtis Axel, but at one point these two monstrous WWE Superstar personalities were at each others throats. Both former ‘Paul Heyman guys,’ this Mattel WWE Battle Pack will likely commemorate their short feud over the services of a manager they both thought they could trust. Though neither ended up benefiting from Paul Heyman in the end, they managed to do their best to outperform each other and it may have been one of CM Punk’s last great endeavors in the WWE.
The Mattel WWE Elite Series 30 lineup has finally been revealed, and fans are going wild with the announcement of a mix of modern day WWE Superstars and WWE Legends! WWE Elite 30 includes:
Ryback
Batista
Lex Luger
Hawk (Legion of Doom)
Animal (Legion of Doom)
Brock Lesnar
With Ryback’s newfound ability as a tag-team specialist working hard to own the scene with the likes of Curtis Axel, Ryback has finally found a place in the WWE where he is fully comfortable. A new Mattel WWE Ryback Elite will help ease the demand of this ever-popular WWE Superstar and offer another of his extremely detailed singlets in wrestling figure form.
Since returning to the WWE, Batista will receive his first Mattel WWE Elite figure in years. Hopefully representing his new, Hollywood-style attitude, this Elite will more than likely be packed with a few accessories, and if fans are lucky, a pair of skinny jeans with ripping ability.
Lex Luger was once an unstoppable WWE Superstar, chugging off on the ‘Lex Express’ and taking the WWE Universe by storm. His American-themed outfits and patriotism made him a fan favorite during his short WWE run and wrestling figure fans have been clamoring for a Lex Luger figure since the Mattel WWE Elite and Legends lines have existed.
The Road Warriors, also known as the Legion of Doom, consist of the unstoppable Hawk and Animal. Although they had debut figures in Mattel’s WWE Legends line, they finally make a return, hopefully in the red shoulder pads that fans have been dying for since their original release. If this isn’t the case, fans would certainly be happy with blue shoulder pads or even LOD 2000 attire.
Brock Lesnar looks to end the Undertaker’s streak at WrestleMania 30, but in the meantime his ring attire has changed very little since re-debuting in the WWE. With the possibility of a new headsculpt for an Elite Brock, this figure could give fans another modern day version of the Beast.

Due the current wrestling landscape, an often overlooked conversation is the survival of the WWE World Heavyweight Champion as he tries to avoid a loss to any oncoming challengers. The idea is overlooked even more with Randy Orton, who fans and members of the locker room alike feel cheated his way to a title reign because of a partnership with Triple H and the rest of the WWE corporate body. While many potential contenders including the Elimination Chamber participants and anyone else looking to get a shot at the gold and their struggles are often discussed by the WWE Universe, the struggle for Randy Orton to fend them off is an even greater one.
Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Randy Orton vs. Daniel Bryan!
Perhaps what began all the modern day struggles for The Viper was his Money in the Bank briefcase win at WWE Money In The Bank 2013. After making his way up the ladder with all of his opponents laid out, he grabbed his chance at the WWE Championship, used it on Daniel Bryan with the help of Triple H at Summerslam 2013 and didn’t look back until he was the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Now, the playing field is even smaller and those looking to dethrone him, especially Daniel Bryan who he took advantage of to begin with, are ready to make repeated attempts until it happens. Here, Randy Orton and Daniel Bryan call back to their Summerslam 2013 interaction in Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28.
Mattel WWE Elite 21 Randy Orton!
Randy Orton’s ability and strength cannot be denied despite his cheating ways and the Mattel WWE figures that reflect that best come in the Elite style. In Mattel WWE Elite 21, Randy Orton sports an RKO t-shirt and superior articulation, offering his finishing move of the RKO out of nowhere and helping wrestling figure fans re-create his intensity working up to that move or his beautiful standing dropkicks.
Mattel WWE Series 37 Randy Orton!
Randy Orton has been a staple at WrestleMania since debuting in the WWE and perhaps his greatest personal challenge is a thirst for participating in the WWE’s main event. The WWE Universe has seen him suffer defeats and earn triumphs at WrestleMania, but with his current interactions and friendship with Triple H his participation at WrestleMania XXV comes to mind. In Mattel WWE Series 37, the WrestleMania Heritage series flashes back to a time when Randy Orton and Triple H were at odds with plenty of personal attacks. Randy Orton, as WWE World Heavyweight champion, can truly trust no one, not even the person aiding him in his attempts at glory.
Mattel WWE Super Strikers Randy Orton!
The Mattel WWE Super Strikers Randy Orton shows the true darkness behind the eyes of the Apex Predator, with a face of anger, power and explosive frustration. When the wrestling figures legs are squeezed together, a double hook move can be performed but perhaps more telling about the release is the inclusion of a chair. Randy Orton will go to any lengths to get what he wants and this figure is the perfect example of that willingness to gain.

Since finding a new home in the WWE after years of absence, the New Age Outlaws have rekindled the fans love for their anti-authority antics and reinvigorated the true meaning of D-Generation X. However, they recently betrayed CM Punk and walked out on him in the middle of a tag team match with The Shield. While they claim they are not in cahoots with COO and fellow D-Generation X member Triple H, all arrows seem to point in that direction. In the meantime, modern day fans get to enjoy an Attitude Era staple that hasn’t changed much since it’s original run, the tag team of the New Age Outlaws. As the Outlaws continue to make their presence felt, their Mattel WWE figures add new depth to the rosters of wrestling figure collectors who love mixing the ‘old’ with the ‘new.’
Mattel WWE Elite 26 Road Dogg Jesse James!
Road Dogg Jesse James was released first in Mattel WWE Elite 26, complete with hat and two D-Generation X style shirts. His ‘shake, rattle and roll’ finish can be re-enacted and he can be posed like a true degenerate. Welcome to the Dogg house takes on entirely new meaning with such a detailed figure.
Road Dogg’s partner in crime, the ‘Bad Ass’ Billy Gunn has yet to be put on display by Mattel. Speculation runs rampant as to which outfit would best suit Mr. Ass, but the possibilities are endless. The most likely choices are either green with lips featured or pink with lips featured on the ‘rear’ and front. Billy Gunn looks almost exactly the same as he did during the Attitude Era, so fitting him in with the rest of your Mattel WWE figures should be no problem.
It is unknown whether or not DX has a corporate agenda, but after their actions against CM Punk on RAW it can only be assumed that even D-Generation X will do what’s ‘best for business.’

The Mattel WWE Series 38 wrestling action figures are now available for PRE-ORDER at WrestlingFigures.com! While we can only speculate as to what they will look like right now, the set will include:
Sheamus
Vickie Guerrero
Chris Jericho
Kofi Kingston
The Miz
Dolph Ziggler
Sheamus has yet to return to the WWE, but speculation around Royal Rumble 2014 proves that anything is possible. Whether or not he will debut a new attire on television remains to be seen, but this release will most likely see standard Sheamus attire.
While taking a leave of absence from WWE, Chris Jericho works on other projects like a new podcast and his successful rock band, Fozzy. Fans were disappointed that Jericho’s new tattoo has not been featured on his wrestling action figures due to cross licensing issues. It is no telling, however, as to when or if Mattel works cross licensing issues out, so while there is usually no chance, Jerichoholics continue to speculate.
Dolph Ziggler has suffered from concussions recently and it has taken a toll on his career, bringing his leaps forward to a screeching halt. However, he remains a fan favorite and someone that die-hard wrestling enthusiasts wait to savor a big moment along with. This figure will most likely feature one of his colorful, elaborate, and very form fitting, wrestling trunk designs.
The Miz is a former World Champion and remains a mainstay on the WWE roster. Though he is not currently in title contention, he hopes to rekindle some contender fire at Royal Rumble 2014 and after changing facial hair styles, will probably have a newer look than his previous Mattel WWE basic series figures.
Kofi Kingston has sported long tights as of late when hopping into the squared circle and while it is too early to tell, it is entirely possible this Mattel WWE Series 38 Kofi Kingston figure will feature his new look and new attitude.
Vickie Guerrero has been sparsely seen since being drafted to Smackdown but she still makes an immediate presence felt when her trademark voice rings out in any arena around the world. Already having two Mattel WWE figures, the demand for an authority will keep Vickie Guerrero a hot commodity amongst wrestling figure collectors for years to come.
