Tommy Dreamer Sandman Dory Funk Jr. Uncle Elmer Cousin Luke Shane Douglas Owen Hart (But we'll never get a figure of him) Chris Benoit (Unless you count the Best WCW / ECW of series) Stu Hart There's more but I can't think of any more right now There was a few Sandman figs made, I would've hated seeing a rehashed Sandman in a Classics package. Figs I would have loved to see made as classics Ricky Steamboat MachoMan Rogeu Brothers Hercules The only figs I would put under the WHY catagory is just all the rehashes. Like Classics series 28, WTF?!? No one in that series was new. Just all rehashes in dif costumes. Series 28 was Jakks phoneing in an easy payday. |

.............and the list could go on. Especially, tag-teams. Can you imagine what the CS line would have looked like with all these WWF names? And then you have a lot of WCW/NWA and other names that could have been made. I just listed the WWF guys though. I am surprised they didn't make quite a few of the names I listed. It would have made for a more complete Classic line. Without all the repaints and re-releases of some people, I believe they could have easily made everyone on this list.

this is just gonna change into an infinite wishlist post so i don't think i'll even bother. people can't tell the difference between who they would have expected would be made and people who they personally wanted to be made, so the discussion is pointless.

Booker T. But I guess him going to TNA pretty much killed the chances for that. Also would've liked a Harlem Heat 2-Pack.

Jakks makes figures of everybody, so I'm not surprised at who they produced. Guys who had bad blood with Vince didnt have to go through the WWE to get a figure made. I am surprised we didnt get these guys
Kerry Von Erich
Paul Roma
Shane Douglas
The Patriot
Macho Man Randy Savage (we may never know how Mattel got to make his figure and Jakks didnt)
Not surprised we didnt get these guys
Owen Hart-his wife wont allow it
Ricky Steamboat-his wife had ownership of that name
Did get and was surprised
Diesel/Kevin Nash-was still in TNA at the time

Why would you be surprised that Warrior did get CS figures? He was THE draw of early 90's.

wait, ur surprised that warrior and bruno samartino got figs? Yes because they have BOTH been very outspoken about WWE over the years I am guessing JAKKS made th choices as I think Warrior has a personal agreement with them. And the fact Bruno of all people i not in the Hall of Fame tells you there is some major heat with Vince |

I am puzzled why former or present-day WWE employees ( i.e. road agents ) or HOF inductees like Pat Patterson, Nick Bockwinkel, Blackjack Lanza didn't get their CS figures during Jakks' time.

I'm pretty sure that a 80's Patterson and both Blackjacks were originally planned for CS28,but got scraped since Jakks supposedly "didn't have enough time". But it totally sucks that we may never get Jakks version of these figures. Unless they deflect to TNA but I doubt that. |

sable chyna lita linda elizabeth stacey torrie ivory molly alundra blayze but we got a trish ljn instead of these aswell as 3 sunny figures I don't think people would consider a black suited Stacy as a new figure,Torrie is still pretty much the same as when she was in WCW,ditto for Lita cept she was in WWF. As for the rest,they were all possible candidates but somewhere along the line someone screwed up. |
