I understand there is demand for this figure but it's easily a regular elite release, zero need for it to take a DM slot. Aren't we getting the equivalent of this in the HOF line series 2? Not exactly but damn close. It was a pretty generic look for him early to mid-90's.

While I doubt it is next because he is coming out again in Elite 38, it would not surprise me to see a Wrestlemania IV Macho Man with cape and winged eagle belt in the future. I would love that, I suggested WM III but any early Macho Man would do fine as long as he comes with a robe. I think I would actually prefer your WM IV suggestion as want a winged eagle belt in my collection, unfortunately I missed out on previous figures (WM XXX Bret Hart, WM 8 Macho flashback) that came with that belt.

Jericho is one of my all time favorites. I would buy at least 2 DM Jericho.

I don't think Mattel withholding announcing who it is lends the figure to being Y2J. It will be a first time Mattel figure of someone and I'm not gonna lie they could release Warrior or Macho every series in new attire and I would love to add them to my collection.

I might be in he minority here.....but I would not buy a Defining Moments Chris Jericho.
I have:
EG Battle Pack 1 Elite 4 Elite 21
If we are going to get a DM, it should be of a character we don't already have!
Why couldn't Undisputed Champion Chris Jericho just be a Flashback? Elite 34 Paige comes with 2 belts! I don't think we should waste a DM spot on Jericho when it could be used for a NEW character.
The 4 recent DM's are all first timers: Flair Hogan Razor Sting
I'm not paying $24.99 for a figure of a guy I already have in a different outfit.
Bottom line, Chris Jericho should be an Elite FLASHBACK, not a DM.

I dont think I've ever even seen a Jericho figure in stores in general. I have seen about four hundred of the elite warrior in the singlet. About 40 HOF warriors. And god only knows how many of the craptastic battle pack with cena that for whatever reason needed a variant to warm with it. Really though. I don't have an issue with Warrior and I own two figures. (Which is all I need) I just think maybe they should focus on giving collectors anyone else for a while. Maybe someone who doesn't have multiple different versions all over the place.

The Warrior from the BP Cena is in one of the most iconic attires! You must frequent some strange stores if they have never stocked a Jericho, he was £1 in my local Smyths stores recently. Anyway, it's not about my dads bigger than your dad. It's all about opinions

yeah i dont see people paying $25/$30 for a Chris Jericho figure if he came with REAL belts.
the 4th DM this year has got to be a big splash. either someone that hasnt had a figure yet or one of the most popular guys currently

Basic 38 was in my TRU for months, basic 45 was in Smyths so long that they reduced them to £1

I think what needs to be taken into account is that the likely attire for a possible DM Jericho is Vengeance 2001. It was the night where Jericho defeated The Rock and Austin in the same night to make history, becoming the FIRST undisputed champion because, from my understanding a DM figure is supposed to resemble a superstar from a significant event
Such as:
- DM Triple H (His long anticipated return to the WWE) - DM The Rock (This is your life segment) - DM Shawn Michaels (The Streak: Light vs. Darkness) - DM John Cena (Drafted to Raw in 2005) - DM Hogan (Wrestlemania 3) - DM Sting (Defeated Hollywood Hogan for the WCW World Heavyweight championship at Starrcade 97)

Bill said he had new parts for macho man hence the E38 figure. That figure will have no entrance coat. There must be plans for another macho man using those new parts again and giving us a robe/jacket. Maybe it's the next DM.
