Unfortunately you can probably add Shane Douglas to the "never gonna happen" list. Haku isn't in the concussion suit, so there's still a good chance we could see him at some point. |

Only one person on the 100% never gonna happen list as far as I know. Law suits and grudges come and go. |

Would buy them all, but selected a few that are high priority,or have been for a while, on my wants list.
1. Bob Backlund...a MUST at this point.
2. Haku...Not in the lawsuit,so theres a chance
3. Tazz..not off the table either
4. Giant Gonzalez...i know its been said they won't do him. But they said the same about Scott Hall.
5. The Mountie...can't be done as the Mountie,but perhaps they can just call him Jauques Rougaeu ,or however its spelled.
These others are off the table for one reason or another. But I'd still love to see them
1. Jeff Jarrett...i truly think Mattel would nail his country star look. Without question
2. Adam Bomb...was JUST looking up potential recipies to make a custom of him
3. Barbarian...an absolute shame hes in the lawsuit.
4. Raven...WAY up on the wants list...pipe dream though
5. Benoit...NEVER going to happen
6. Owen Hart...just slightly better shot at him than Benoit. Which is not saying much.
7. Mabel...i believe his wife has some litigious thing with WWE right now
8. Ludvig Borga...just plain doubtful at best
9. Kevin Sullivan...now working for Impact
10. Sunny/Chyna...both for the same reason. Post wrestling activities will keep them off Mattels radar despite any HoF induction or potential HoF induction.
Honorable mentions not on the list:
1. Terry Taylor..preferably his 90s incarnation as Terrific and not 80s Rooster
2. Hakushi...loooooong shot. But would look great.
3. The Steiner Bros...could happen one day,but its not on the radar anytime soon.
4. The Headshrinkers. ...a possibility i would think.
5. The Headbangers...same as above.
And now for my ridiculous pick for terrible gimmick that would look great in mattel form.......Mantaur! C'mon....it sucked ,but would make a great action figure

All those ECW guys for sure. That's a section of wrestling history that really needs some love from Mattel. Just Bam Bam and Terry Funk ain't cutting it.
Taz is a huge personal want of mine. Jakks' version sucked. Too big and pale and he's one of my all time favorites.
Raven is one that I think Mattel would knock out of the park. A DM with cloth jacket and waist flannel. And if Mattel could work out with their DC toy deal to use his Sandman t-shirt, it'd probably be their best figure ever.
Shane Douglas hasn't had a great figure ever and he was like THE guy for ECW for years.

13. The Mountie (36)
14. Tommy Dreamer (elite)
15. Bob Backlund (32)
16. Chris Benoit (32)
17. Giant Gonzales (32)
Surprises about the 90’s
The Biggest surprise to me is that Bob Backlund, Chris Benoit and Giant Gonzales barely get in.
That Chynna and Adam Bomb are so high up.
Kevin Sullivan was so low
Samba Simba and Skinner would make for good figures but so far out.
Surprises about the 80’s
-Ronnie Garvin (although perhaps a plain figure was the former champion)
-Nikita Koloff and Ivan with all of the Russian hoopla were hated back then and would think they would still be today. Good look for figures.
-Don Muraco was a pretty good heel. Tye Dye shirt would be a cool looking figure.
-Kevin Sullivan was demonic and a good heel.
Surprised Koko B Ware made the list. Not a real threat to win any big matches although in the Hall of Fame. For whatever reason.
Adrian Street would make a great figure but understand.
Monsoon and Ventura make it as announcers over wrestlers
Surprises about the 70’s
-Baron Von Rachke such a bad guy. The German villain. Fun figure this would be with the iron klaw and cape.
-Dick the Bruiser the world’s most dangerous man. I understand it could be a boring figure but iconic tough guy and so low on the voting.
-Surprised that Jerry Briscoe has more votes than his Heavyweight champion brother Jack Briscoe.
Bobo and Big Cat Ernie Ladd don’t have more votes.
-I think Killer Khan would make for such a great figure and never been done before “broke Andre the Giant’s ankle” and would scream like a banshee when he inflicted chops and kicks.
-Not sure what the appeal to Pat Patterson is?
-Rocky Johnson electric performer father of the Rock. Hall of Famer. One of the big deals. Not in.
-The Sheik was a bad dude. Villain and god looking figure.

I would want Owen Hart in either his Summerslam 94 attire or his Hart Foundation 97 attire complete with Owen 3:16, the IC title, and two Slammy Awards.

People who voted for Benoit have some serious character flaws...... I could never own a Benoit figure. I have no issues with any other wrestlers being made regardless of character flaws (Chyna, bagwell, Dino Bravo, hogan, etc) |
