Finally we can have RIC FLAIR !!! ;D  can't wait if this will be true!!! People close to Ric Flair are saying that he will be returning to WWE at the October 29th RAW from Charlotte, North Carolina. The belief is that he will be getting involved in the storyline with AJ Lee, Vickie Guerrero and John Cena. We've noted before that there have been rumblings of Flair returning but the lawsuit from TNA was preventing that. Flair has canceled at least one upcoming independent wrestling appearance that was booked in North Carolina. Source: Lordsofpain |

Stop posting about the figure, it'll add to its hype and then when Mattel finally makes it and RSC has it up for pre-order it'll go for prices so high, they'd probably fail a wellness policy test. SMH.
In all seriousness, though; I'd say it'll take us over a year from Flair showing up on TV (on a permanent capacity) to Flair getting a figure made. A Flashback Flair from the 1989 Chi Town Rumble would be amazing.

They already have a prototype of Flair. I dont think it would be as long as you think. I also hope, or would like to see Legends style packaging just for one of his figures.

If Mattel are smart they'd start on this as soon as he shows up

okay here's the thing - Brock Lesnar returns the day after WM and 7-8 months later we're getting E19 Brock and B25 Brock.
We don't have to wait a year for Flair.

Don't forget how quick we got Mick Foley. He came back in Early November 2011.....and his Elite 17 figure was released by Late August 2012. But they say it takes longer when they have "soft goods". Socko was really tiny.....a Flair robe is alot of fabric. Though I fear they will do a plastic robe, which I've started to slowly hate more and more. |

If a plastic robe means getting him faster, then I'm all for it. I have plenty of Jakks robes if I ever really want to put him in one.
I just hope he's not in black or red. C'mon Mattel, guys have a lot more colors to their attire than just black or red, give our collections a little color!
Green (w/ yellow boots), Purple, Blue, all fine colors to put the Nature Boy in

Consumer feedback on that has been negative due to paint chipping etc. So I'm wondering if it's another case of being cheap for Mattel to make wrestlers in red and/or black. Naitch done in pink with blue knee pads would be great too - classic colour for his mid-80s days. It's amazing how many those two colours dominate our collections. I struggle just to get wrestlers in other colours to "pop" on the shelf. |

Let's just see if this is true first. Lords of Pain isn't reporting it as fact, and sites like pwtorch and prowrestling.net haven't even covered it.

I REALLY hope, if he is made in Elite form, he has a non plastic robe. Flair would look 100x better with a fabric robe!
I'd love to see a blue or pink flair.

I know it's been done before, but I wouldn't mind another Starrcade 83 Flair for the gold attire.

I too have a ton of Jakks Flair robes.....so it won't be the end of the world if they do a plastic robe.
I'm also sick of my whole collection being Red & Black.
And tho its not really confirmed when Flair will return, Its safe to say we will see him in WWE soon. Its a matter of time

Bill said in a q&a that the flair was a myth, never happened. Idk if I honestly believe him cuz I think the tru order sheet for EG had flair on it so who knows. I hope they don't give us a plastic robe when we get him but then again look at yokos robe. May be better to avoid stains. |
