i read on a message board today that mattel is releasing a king kong bundy action figure on mattycollector.com in may. they said the current wwe magazine has a picture, as part of an advertisement, of the figure. does any one have a scan or link to a pic of the figure?
also the same post notes that the figure is listed as "bundy" in the magazine as wwe had a copyright claim against them for the "king kong" nickname and until it is resolved cannot use it. Will this effect how the figure itself is labeled on the box?

Oh nice! We've seen a few protos/sculpts of some of them so far but absolutely nothing so far for Bundy. I'm curious as to how he's going to look - molded singlet or fabric? Looking forward to seeing it whenever someone gets a scan.

Well...I didn't go page by page through the magazine but on page 2 is the normal Legends ad that's been in the magazine for the past couple months with Andre's proto. And of course on the bottom is the carding image of Bundy but no figure image. So I'm guessing that's what they are talking about.

I hope they come out with Bundy. With or without eyebrows, I wasn't satisfied with the Jakks one.
