This... How was it not one of the questions?! This is absurd Bill designs the figures. The Mankind was shown at SDCC. He doesn't handle distribution or the promotions. What would you have asked Bill about the Mankind that isn't already known? How about: When will this figure be released? We don't know the answer to that question. Even if he doesn't know or can't say it couldn't have hurt (I mean you did ask about HBK when the answer was already made clear). Several people asked and threads have been made about this figure.

What would you have asked Bill about the Mankind that isn't already known? yeh I don't understand why ppl still have questions about this figure. Other then when its going to be released.It was also @ NYCC Ummm...yeah. That's sorta what everybody wanted to know...Especially when the time of the previous mail-away promotion have been traditionally has already passed. Oh and not to mention being featured on the 2013 poster. Here we are in November and 2013 winding down and still no news. And the whole case of figures showing up at the Mattel retail store... Something obviously happened and some of us would like to know.

They asked my question about X-Pac's jersey (good answer, Bill!) and the 'unreleased figures that never came out' one. Awesome. I was more so referring to stuff like Kaval that they just couldn't finish in time before his release or anything else that just got scrapped, and not the naughty Chinese leaks. But still, glad to hear it asked anyway. Also, great news about Edge!

Big John Studd is just a fat guy in white tights. No cool accessory, doesn't look cool He can come with the robe or a duffle bag from his match with Andre.

RSC exclusives as of late........have been revolving around getting some exclusive belt. Rated R championship seems like a no brainer. But on the other hand, the e13 Edge Flashback peg warmed. So maybe the demand isn't there? i didn't watch wrestling when Edge had that belt. What attire would go w/ an Edge from that time period? I didn't see edge warm at all in my areas and now he's selling for like 50 bucks on e-bay

So it took almost a year & half for Flashback Edge to clear shelves and now they wanna make more? Can Mattel just sell the Elite sculpts to JAKKS and let them release Legends/Flashbacks so we can have guys from Pre-1999. How do u figure it took a year and a half?! I only saw him like 2 times ever!

He never said JoJo was scanned. He said Eva was.
For the record, if we get a freaking JoJo figure before Doink, Crush, Hall, Flair, Hogan, or Goldberg......or even before The goddamn Mountie, I'll eat a razor blade sandwich.

Hahaha I love this response, it's so true though, I mean the divas are fun for some people but the legends? Fun for EVERYONE...I collect my favorite guys and my punk/bryan/ziggler sections are filled already so it's time to add Hall to my Nash and goldberg/flair/hogan to my collection! Make it happen mattel

I mean, I'm not ashamed to admit that I watch total divas. Mostly to see the Bellas and Eva in spandex.....but the broad hasn't performed one wrestling move on tv and she's getting a figure?!?!

Too bad we won't get Goldust until after he's probably released again. You never know. He might not screw up this time. Yeah, I doubt we'll ever see a Hugh Morrus figure come out. Seems like the kind of guy who'd maybe make it into Series 36 of a "Best of WCW" line. Big John Studd is just a fat guy in white tights. No cool accessory, doesn't look cool, and was irrelevant even by the Hasbro era. Maybe he'd be alright a 0.5 per case basic, but there's always going to be a huge list of higher priorities above him for an elite. maybe you werent a fan from 1985-1989, but studd was HUGE part of wrestling back then. A HUGE part of my wrestling fan history! and one of my favs. its just as easy for me to say half of todays roster are just boring guys in trunks. some have no color, no flash. but I'd bet they have fans and those fans would want figures of them! How long was Papa shango's gimmik? No where near what/ Studd contributed to wrestling!

i've been watching wrestling my whole life. And remember as far back as 87......Big John Studd was not a HUGE part of wrestling.
He's famous for losing to Andre in the Body slam challenge and winning the royal rumble...nothing else.
