Nice. I would love a Jim Ross figure. Maybe a 'Flashback' or a 2-pack w/ Cole or Lawler?

sounds interesting.
a figure pack with him, Lawler & Cole in announcer gear would be epic.

If Mattel really wanted to do an all out special set they should do a 3 pack with JR, Cole, and Lawler with an announce table and headsets. It could be an exclusive for TRU, Kmart, Target, or Online.

Im not much for talking figures, but a talking JR would be awesome. STONE COLD, STONE COLD, STONE COLD!

I assumed this was one of two things. Either a JR figure, or something Legends related since he said it would appeal to "long time fans and collectors" in his original tweet.

maybe it's wishful thinking, but I would guess (and hope) that a "collectors project" is something more substantial than simply a new JR figure.
i mean personally, i'd think it was odd for someone to refer to one or two figures as a "project". the term lends itself to something grander than that.
hopefully it's something resulting in legends figures getting released more often. but perhaps that's a little optimistic.

I doubt it will affect the frequency with which Legends are released. Sales determine that. But I can't see Mattel jumping for a JR figure. He's not on TV enough. |

Hmmmmmmmmm.
Maybe it is a new project on Mattycollector? A line of announcers/refs/managers? These would be the figures that collectors want, but wouldn't really do well at retail.

I like JR, but I don't personally want a figure of him. However, I do think he deserves one because I think there are plenty of people out there that would pick him up.
I also sort of agree with The Assassin in saying that it seems like something bigger than just a figure but who knows.

That's what I was thinking. Maybe a small set or series of JR's favorite wrestlers. This might be the only way we'll see a Mattel Steve "Dr. Death" Williams figure. |

I'd buy a JR figure in a heartbeat. I used to have the Jakks one but I foolishly gave it away.
