'Cause this has everything to do with Mattel, right Chi-town? Theres mattel figures and customs. I get your mad your topic got moved... but this just comes off as petty. I wish mattel had more rights to WCW guys then they do. My whole WCW mattel collection fits on a shelf and a half and its mostly just Sting, Nash and Hall lol. I would especially love some cruisers since there were so many. When I see jakks figs in a collection with Mattel, it makes me nauseous. It looks so bad. That's just me though. I don't think this poo-poo platter should be allowed in the Mattel board

My whole WCW mattel collection fits on a shelf and a half and its mostly just Sting, Nash and Hall lol. I would especially love some cruisers since there were so many. I'm amazed how few WCW figures we've gotten. Still no WCW Jericho? Many of the cruisers are still wrestling in Mexico, so that may make signing them to a contract impossible. But there guys like Glacier, Bobby Eaton, Disco Inferno, or Alex Wright that would be nice additions to round out a WCW collection that we'll never see. Legends deals are just another opportunity for WWE to tell their version of history. How many figures have we gotten who didn't work for WWE? The only one I can think of is Stevie Ray, and I'm sure Booker's connections got him that deal. But I hope with things like the upcoming BAF series, HOC, etc that Bill can slowly build out the roster of WCW figures. True. Working for other promotions is probably a large qty of the older wcw cruiser division. But it would be awesome to have Jarrett, Juventude, Meng, Kanyon, Sullivan, Konnan, Lance Storm, Muta, Kidman, Bischoff, Ole Anderson, ultimo, Hayes, Valentine... I could go on forever it seems lol. Or WCW versions of Jericho, Reagal, Dustin Rhodes, bossman etc. But I enjoy seeing a Ron Simmons, annd the baf line coming so I hold hope still.

To be fair we have also got the 4 horseman from Mattel, right? and the road warriors, regal, jim dugan etc ... they're all in my Thursday Thunder collection box. But were missing so many. Like you said, the ones in Mexico etc.

It's pretty awesome. I have no clue why there's not a Jericho and Dustin Rhodes yet, though! And honestly, I never even pieced together that they could do Big Bubba. No idea how that slipped my mind.

I personally have my legends Road warriors in my WCW collection because I believe their first run in WCW in the early 80's they wore that attire
