OK i was thinking Jakks did a lot of cool and good CS figures. Some even flawless.What Legend did Jakks make that you would like to see Mattel take a try at? There are tons of ones i would like including Doink, Berzerker being 2 of them. What do you wanna see?

Just off the top of my head- Sabu, Cactus Jack, and of course, Hogan nWo was a thing of beauty by JAKKS.... Mattel would kill it.
The only current Legends that I think Mattel has been beat by JAKKS on is Superfly, Slaughter and Eddie (I know many will disagree w/ that one).

Really my two biggest Wants Jakks did that i think Mattel could do better are Earthquake and Giant Gonzalez
But .... Some Guys that Jakks Did Poorly that i know Mattel would do Justice would be Earthquake, Psycho Sid and Razor Ramone.

These are just some of the guys I want to see Mattel tackle, they've beaten Jakks on all the big guys so far as there all unique molds instead of using the standard Yokozuna buck body.
JBL
Michael Hayes
Earthquake
Typhoon
Barbarian singles attire
Berzerker
Repo Man
IRS
Barry Windham
Bobby Heenan

Yokozuna, Mr. Fuji, Captain Lou, Haku, Anvil, Diesel, 123 Kid, Sid, and Razor Ramon. I can't even imagine how good that would look. That'd be crazy if they made a cloth outfit with wrestling gear underneath from SS '89. |

Looking back, there's not too many that Jakks nailed that I'd love to see the Mattel spin on, but here's a few:
HBK - Montreal Screwjob. That head sculpt was perfect for a DX HBK and it actually had his ring attire as well.
WCW Giant - I think Mattel would do a better job of making him look younger like his WCW days.
Greg Valentine, Don Muraco - Jakks did a great job with their head sculpts and I'm not sure what Mattel could do to top them.

The Jakks exclusive cactus jack was in my view their best figure they ever made, but I feel like a Mattel Cactus would be the most epic figure of all time.
a few others would be Dynamite Kid and Jesse Ventura

a Widowmaker Barry Windham or even a 4 horsemen us champ Barry Windham would be done much better than jakks' us express windham.

Guys Jakks great jobs on -
Magnificent Muraco
British Bulldogs
Hart Foundation
Tito Santana
Jesse Ventura
Superstar Billy Graham
Greg "the Hammer" Valentine
Cactus Jack
Mankind
Guys they made, but were under par -
Bob Backlund (needs to be a young WWWF champion version and not the joke Jakks gave us)
Ivan & Nikita Kolov (both had worng boots & scale)
Barry Windham (too short)
Bobby Heenan (too tall)
Big John Studd (too short)
Razor Ramon
Scott Hall (head too large)
Capt lou 9too tall)
Jimmy Hart (too tall)
Guys in TNA I'd love to see a Mattel version of at some point -
Ric Flair
Hulk Hogan
Taz
Steiners
Just to name a few.

Rock 'n' Roll Express - Had the potential to be good figures but ruined by that whole 'painting the wrong sculpts' debacle.
Midnight Express - Really good set but i'd like to see Mattel versions of these guys.

I want to see Paul bearer done at a proper scale with the right body shape.
Also, kanes flame top cs18 attire is my favorite of his but they botched that badly with a 10yr old scan, wrong height, wrong boots, incorrect singlet, etc. Mattel has done an astonishing job on all their Kane figures and I'd love to see them do this exact attire and properly.
On the subject of cs18, if they do ever get deep enough into the line they need to do a proper rikishi.

I would say Hulk Hogan, but Jakks never "nailed" that one at all. None of the scans really captured Hogan - except for the Finishing Moves one, and that one was only used on that particular figure.
My vote would go to "Kona" Crush. It was a great figure by Jakks standards, but I'd love to see it in correct scale, with more detail and no balloon head.

all mattel hbk scans are apauling, i'd say jacks have better head scans overall, (scale aside) ESPECIALLY the new rumble hbk, looks worse than ttl or bca  |

That'd be crazy if they made a cloth outfit with wrestling gear underneath from SS '89. When they first introduced the DM concept I said Bobby Heenan as a DM in a molded werstling attire with his black suit & a weasel suit would have been awesome. |
