The lack of a Tito Santana (and Junkyard Dog too) is a huge hole in the Mattel flashbacks. I find it hard to believe we got Rick Martel in the legends line but no Tito. I would not want the El Matador Tito. I would buy a trunks wearing Tito w/ ICC belt accessory. BTW - the Jakks Santana head on a Del Rio body with Epico/Primo arms works pretty well for an 80s IC Champ Santana. Paint or swap the trunks/kneepads/boots as needed to get the look you want. I agree that we need JYD preferably in his white attire with the red JY Dog and thump and stars on it like the jakks white one.

Pretty sure he won't sell. It was a minor miracle we got HonkeyTonk Man, lets not be greedy and demand guys nobody has heard of.
My main flashback wants :
1. Cena debut 2. Randy Orton debut 3. Rey Mysterio WWE debut 4. Triple H evolution biker shorts 5. Eddie Guerrero Parking Lot Brawl 6. Cena Parking Lot Brawl 7. Rey Mysterio Silver Surfer 8. Randy Orton Evolution 9. JBL suit 10. Bret Hart pink short singlet
Let's make it happen MTD!!!!

He's signed but he never wrestled in the Attitude Era and isnt named Macho Man or Ultimate Warrior.... so not gonna happen. Wow that's a pretty bold statement considering we got honky tonk man not too long ago, and a we'll have a flashback in the line that started wrestling in the 50's and was at his peak in the 70's most likely in stores before Christmas. Not to mention that sometime in 2014 we'll have a 3 flashback wave that includes a "new generation era" Lex Luger. So, just because we're getting 2 series in a row with attitude era flashbacks and an ultimate warrior, does not mean that Mattel is obsessed with that era and warrior/savage. is there any way to dislike a post?

I could take it or leave it he not high on my list of must haves He's not even on my list, but I'd still buy him. There are about 50 or so figs I'd buy, but only 9 or 10 I feel are essential to my collection.

So many characters have zero figs and you want more Cenas, Reys and Ortons? For real? I really hope I just missed your sarcasm there.

I liked Tito, I will probably buy any Mattel figure they come out with of him.

There are not that many new faces that warrant a Flashback. Let's be realistic here, if Mattel felt that Old timers like Tito, JYD and Muraco would sell, they would've released them by now. Since we've already have 3 Golden era legends coming soon in Rikishi and the New Age Outlaws, Mattel has pretty much releases all the major characters that would thrive at retail, so that would leave us with highly detailed repaints of guys like Cena, Orton, and Mysterio in the Flashback line, with the occasional addition of legends like Hart, Warrior, HBK and Macho, and lets not forget about Foley, Triple H, Taker, Eddie & The Rock.
