Would you buy an Elite Flashback Jericho? Ringside Collectibles seems reluctant to request an Exclusive Flashback Chris Jericho from Mattel, based on supposed sales of previous Jericho figures. But there is a huge difference between a flashback Jericho and a modern Jericho. Flashback Chris Jericho - Long hair, beard
- Long tights with multiple colorful designs to choose from
- One of the most popular wrestlers of the late Attitude Era
- First ever Undisputed Champion who defeated The Rock and Stone Cold
Modern Chris Jericho - Short hair, clean shaven
- Short tights with similar uninteresting designs
- Lost in the midcard shuffle
- No longer wins championships
You can't compare the two. They could almost be 2 different guys.
When you release a Hulk Hogan figure, the best selling one will be from the Golden Era when he ruled wrestling. Not a modern Hogan. The same logic applies to Chris Jericho.

Only if its a WCW Monday Night Jericho version. I would love a WCW Jericho from the night he read off his 1001 moves. Have him come packed with computer paper with the moves listed on them. "Arm Bar..."  Or in the attire of his BoWCW and Toy Biz Lion Tamer figures. Of course the more important question is why doesn't Mattel want to release him as a FB? |

Either this attire...  With the shirt & both titles. Or my personal favorite...  With cloth shirt & pants. |

Only if its a WCW Monday Night Jericho version. took the words right out of my mouth I would ONLY be interested in a Flashback Jericho if it was based on his WCW days AND came with a classic WCW Cruiserweight title belt or classic WCW Television title belt. A Chris Jericho and Ralphus 2-pack would also be awesome but I'm sure it would never happen. Even the likelyhood aside, I doubt Mattel/WWE would know where to find Ralphus (aka John Riker) nowadays to sign a deal anyway. |

The WrestleMania 19 attire pictured above would look absolutely stunning in Mattel form! |

Any WCW variation or the Mania 19 look. Beyond that, I'd have to see it. Probably the Mania 18 look as well but I'd want to see the scan first.

I think my top wanted attire from the WWE would be the purple barbed wire or the attire he wore when he wrestled Chyna and Holly for the IC title.

If Ringside can release a crappy Hardcore Kane & Flash Rey Mysterio exclusive figures then I don't see why they couldn't release a Flashback Y2J figure! For a guy who had so many colorful attires and was a huge part of wrestling history I am shocked we haven't seen more figures of him.
I would buy multiples of ANY Flashback Y2J! He was and is one of my all time favorites!

For a guy who had so many colorful attires and was a huge part of wrestling history I am shocked we haven't seen more figures of him. At the point the Flash Rey Mysterio was released, Rey was one of the hottest sellers with collectors. His elite 1 figure was pretty much the hot item that first year. Hardcore Kane came because we kept asking for it and the Flashback Kane and the previous Kane exclusive sold really well. The problem with Jericho is that we always ask for it, but his figures never sell that well. Although I think Elite 20 did alright. There are still at least three or four Jericho elites I'd love to see, whether they're flashbacks, exclusives or some new name. |
