Do you think that now that they finally released Magnum t.a (figure that was scrapped and not to be release at one time )do you think the gobbledy gooker is on his way too ? The real reason they giving us was that the parts will cost alot because they cant use it for another fig,only for this figure, but they released mutant, zombie wrestlers with bizarre and useless parts for the future so why not releasing the Gooker, so everybody will be happy.

No, I don't think it will. Magnum was the only figure scheduled in the Legends series 7 line that hadn't gotten released. The Gooker was just a show piece that MDT did like the Punk/Orton statue or the Beth Pheonex doll they were never scheduled or planned for mass release. And honestly it is bad enough they released the bunny. I would totally pass on the Gooker like I did the bunny. I hated it when it hatched/debut at the Survivor Series and what no memory of that in my collection.

A huge star at the height of wrestlings popularity in the south, Main Event talent, us champion...and Hector Guerrero dancing in a mascot suit for 8 minutes that became a punch line for decades. Yeah I see a direct correlation here.

I feel like it'll be the next Sdcc exclusive. I hope not, I don't want it

Like Mongo Bears said, maybe a SDCC exclusive. A Survivor Series themed BAF wouldn't be a bad idea (87 Bam Bam, 02 HBK, 94 Backlund, 93 Bret). Too bad BAF is likely dead and they never did it right ever.

They've been getting a little more obscure with the releases, so I wouldn't rule it out.....
We got Shockmaster, Tugboat, Bunny, & Bash at the Beach attires.... so I could see them doing the Gooker, which is been referenced many times over the years.

I hope not. It's literally the worst idea for a figure.

A lot of people who said , will not buy it, will be the first in line to get it. Gooker can sell more than any mutant,zombie, or generic wrestlers released over and over again

Long after Mattel and WWE parts way, Gooker will still be shelf warming along side his bubby Tito!

No chance, that thing would warm harder than Rose and Bunny

Make him an exclusive figure and it will be sold more than $100 on ebay, for sure. Maybe not a mass product but as a ringside exclusive, it will be sokd out really fast. Just mattel hate the reasons thst they gave us, about parts costing too much and them they made mutants and zombies that are warming the pegs everything and these figs have nothing to do with wrestling. The gooker is a historic character from the past, and every year you can see him in the storyline during thanksgiving. If they did the shockmaster, im sure that they can release the turkey !
If someone had the prototype, i can buy it for $500, i dont where the fig is at the moment
