I think the only wrestlers Bill has ever said Mattel would never make was Benoit and Chyna. Everyone else depends on if they have a contract and Bill gets the OK from the WWE when he gives them the list of who he wants to make. Still confuses me why Chyna is a no, yet others whom are guilty of the same supposeded sins can’t be made (looking at you x-pac). I do have a new thought on all this chase stuff and it’s not one that has been raised to my knowledge. We now know that the chase figures are selling for bigger money on evilbay... so if I’m spending $120 on Sherri, shouldn’t Mattel be concerned about the $100 they have missed out on? Not all of us have bottomless pits to spend on toys, and I for one am becoming increasingly selective with my purchases, and it’s for this very reason. I get the retail foot traffic argument for those stores involved, but Mattel is missing out on sales due to the secondary prices I have to pay. Doesn’t seem like a smart way for a supplier to run a business unless it was required to keep the store engaged in the product. Just a thought.

I think the difference with Chyna and X Pac, (other than the fact that X Pac is one of Triple H's friends, while he cheated on Chyna with Steph) is that Chyna did multiple hardcore porn videos, with actors pretending to be Triple H, Vince, Cena, and others. X Pac and Chyna's tape was leaked, and only when it came out there did they start to promote it and make money off of it.

I imagine that now applies to Sunny as well because he said that before Sunny Side Up

Bill on Twitter did say that he will never get to do an Adorable Adrian, and the Mountie is off limits. So that’s 4.

So that’s 4. why not the Mountie It requires approval by the actual Canadian Mounties (whatever their association is called) because it uses their logos and uniform. Apparently the Mounties don’t like licensing it or they didn’t like the way WWE portrayed them (and have a very long memory)

Its so ridiculous to say Vince disregards the past. Bobby Lashley, Rey Mysterio, Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, Hulk Hogan, Chris Jericho, Mickie James, Kurt Angle, Shane McMahon, Batista, Ric Flair, HHH, Lita, Trish Stratus, Beth Phoenix, Mick Foley, Edge, Christian, Dudleys, Hardys, Kane, Steve Austin, Jerry Lawler, the Rock, Sting are all signs that isnt true, and the hall of fame, which sole aim is to recognise the past furthers that point

Why a major company like Walmart would get exclusives and not use their Universal reach via their website to give everyone who wants an exclusive Walmart figure the ability to get it defies all logic. False. Walmart gets exclusive dolls to get collectors to go into their stores hunting for them - and when that collector is already there, they may as well buy some groceries, browse the other toys, take a look at the DVDs etc. You got your wish for Mattel to make obscure figures. This store exclusive plan is how they’ve managed to get them into the line. You can either celebrate it or cry about it, but doing both in the same post is inconsistent narcissism at best, trolling at worst.

He made the exact same thread when Flashback 3 came out I went to search his previous threads to read about that and saw where he asked if he could take the hair off of Alexa Bliss to make Adrian Street.... He must have cut you deep with that one! lol I think the only wrestlers Bill has ever said Mattel would never make was Benoit and Chyna. Everyone else depends on if they have a contract and Bill gets the OK from the WWE when he gives them the list of who he wants to make. Bill on Twitter did say that he will never get to do an Adorable Adrian, and the Mountie is off limits. So that’s 4. I forgot about the Mountie. But he did say that here in multiple Q&A’s. Now Adorable Adrian is news to me, because I don’t have Twitter.

Don’t ask me. They probably changed the logos like ECW1 CM Punk
