I want Rhyno! But I'll take a short haired, Indy pants DDP too. I'd much prefer this DDP over the stalker DDP though. Id rather have all 3 of the men in the backseat... i know we got Honky but i want it redone with a belt, and Jimmy should be coming soon i hope, Greg we need you ! Honky bought himself out of the Legends contract lol

I am in the camp of wanting a new DDP as well. I understand the frustration, but considering how easy some of those lower card Legends have been to find, they must be selling a lot less. I've seen Doink four times in three weeks but no Paige anywhere. I've seen Doink once, and lots of other people have yet to see him. I think you just live in a collector's dream area lol

if malenko is short packed with good accessories it won't be a problem What accessories could they include with him? Ice man vest and Jericho's list of 1004 holds!

Flashbacks of Kevin Nash, Taker, and Big Bossman serve as examples of big name guys who sold well and were scarce.

Everyone seems to want DDP. Not everyone. I have no desire for him. The best DDP look they could have made was the one released in the Legends series. Never was a fan of Page but I really like that figure

I am really excited for DDP as I only started collecting a year ago.. So I missed the first one. In any case, I think it's fine they are making another one because they still make an effort to get many first time in the line figures out.

Never was a fan of Page but I really like that figure I'm hoping his next one has jeans, boots, and the diamond shirt. It needs a rib wrap also. That's more iconic to me because that when he was champ and people remember it most.

This years been pretty good ...we have had a lot of first time in the line flashbacks I can't think of many re releases .. And Kane is a current star which is why they make his figs kids see Him on tv they want him. But only re release flashback I can think of are hall of fame Set another Austin Trisha and warrior slaughter LOD 2 rocks . So we Had a few re releases but a nice amount of new first timers and more to come. But I feel your frustration cause there's never enough at lest not at the pace we would like

Maybe one of his US Title runs but all his World, Tag and TV runs were in tights.

Also his entire fued with perfect he wore jeans. Most of the fueding with the nWo was in jeans. He bought tights for matches like Leno and Malone. He did wear tights when he finally won the world title.

He did wear tights when he finally won the world title. He also wore tights quite frequently against the nWo, especially in the beginning when they were recruiting him and it took him from a mid level guy to an upper mid level guy. He would tease by coming out with the tights that had the white band around the waist (usually when teaming with Luger or Giant) and Tony would make comments about him being in nWo colors. Im not tryin to be a dick but it bugs me when people say "such and such is their most iconic look". Just because its a look *you* remember or its the only look that *you* remember (you not being direct, but in general) doesnt mean its iconic. Not directed towards you but people will come in a thread one day and say "I want something with color, nothing bland so that it will pop off the shelves and kids will buy it" and then the next week they will say "Oh his black & white or grey & blue simple two tone attire was more iconic, it should be made"

I'm pretty sure the tights from his first figure are shortly after he won battle bowl. I remember the tease with the nWo colors also, and I believe they touched on it on the first best of nitro DVD. I know for a fact though that he wore jeans fueding with macho and hennig in 97, and that's why I want a jeans DDP really. Those two fueds are two of my all time favorites. The stuff with Kimberly and macho showing off her playboy.

I agree dude. I hate when Mattel doesn't give us new characters every spot for every wave! I'm sick of them releasing the same current wrestlers that are on TV every week! I want Too Cool, Mean Street Posse, Linda, Debra, Headbangers, Steve Blackmon, Shamrock, ETC.
I felt the same way when Billy Gunn got a basic figure when that Battle Pack spot could have went to someone else! Arghhhhh.

the first ddp head was too big. it doesnt look right on the body and it doesnt look right next to pretty much every other mattel head. also i agree if its ddp not smiling and with jeans then that will be sweet.
edit: and of course i want a rhyno too. but no thanks to steve blackman etc

I love the Matty Legends DDP, despite it's flaws, but I'm happy to add another. People need to remember that it isn't always about who Mattel SHOULD make, but who they CAN make. Nobody here knows the real status of these contracts, it's all speculation. I'm the first to call them out when they screw something up, but credit where it's due we have got an amazing bunch of first time figs lately and I don't see how this is really a complaint at this point.

Lol, Rhyno returned a month ago.
Do you really think Mattel would be able to release a figure of a guy one month after he returned?
