hate to be that guy but why could jakks make it if you know That’s the reason we were given by Mattel. Don’t ask me That’s the reason he got taken off TV in 92 as well and why the Quebeckers song specifically stated we aren’t the Mounties.

If Paige can have repeated figures made after numerous instances of sex videos and what not then I’m sure Chyna will get at least one fig in future. Especially now she’s had the HoF induction. The ‘E is softening their stance on her slowly. Just give it a little more time.

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 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. The first cut is the deepest.

I would imagine that the "comedy" LBTQ gimmick would probably give Mattel more trouble than it is worth on two fronts. From those parents disdainful of a such a sexualised character given an action figure and from the LBTQ community itself seeing the character as offensive. A shame, but no reason why we cannot have a East/West or North/South Connection era Adonis. A tag team pack with either Ventura or Murdoch is probably a pipe dream though.

As the resident gay in here, I fully support an Adorable Adrian Adonis fig! 30 years is too long not to have one. Most lgbt trolls don’t even know who Adonis is, they’d hop on the “I’m offended wagon” just because....kinda like how some hopped on the “Moolah was baaaad” wagon even though they had no idea who she was 😂 Wait....wtf was this thread about again? Is this just random chit chat?

That old rascal Vince! As long as I get Sapphire one day, I’m good. If they made her, she would probably be one per state. I know, don’t give Bill any ideas! But I think Harley Race was none per state around me.

The ‘E is softening their stance on her slowly. Just give it a little more time. Something to also take into account is when these things were said. The majority of the things about Chyna were stated at the beginning of the Mattel era. WWE was at it’s most PG point from 2009-2012 when they originally got Mattel (there is correlation here; Daniel Bryan was fired because of Mattel). Also remember that Razor Ramon/Scott Hall was originally in the same breath as Chris Benoit (which was completely ridiculous and I think whoever was behind that reasoning should be ashamed of themselves), and that the original DX (X-Pac, Billy Gunn, & Road Dogg) were never EVER going to be made with no specific reason why. And we’ve seen how both those turned out.

So much fun to watch all of the cyber-bullying on here. It's great! And some of the moderators not only allow it but do it too! Thank you I feel your love. For the people questioning the Vince comment I made ... I will explain my point about Vince and my passion for Legends. Bob Backlund when I was a kid, like Superstar Graham, Harley Race, Dick The Bruiser, King Kong Brody were Huge! BUT they did not make wrestling figures back then hence my desire to have them! So when there is hope the legends lovers like me roots for them and I know I am not alone here. For those who poo-poo it and say it will never happen, it is fun to watch it happen. For those to say they are shelf warmers and you can never find them it is fun for me to watch everyone scramble for excuses. What's not fun is that I can't find some of them myself and do not want to pay a king's ransom to get the King.
Insight on Vince! the night before Wrestlemania 10 I was with Burt Reynolds having dinner with Bob Backlund and Ed Cohen VP of WWF in New York and pitched to them why Bob should turn heel. Their eyes lit up! I was backstage for Wrestlemania 10 and have been many times since and the wrestlers are great! After Wrestlemania 10 They went to Vince and tried it and the gimmick went over so well Backlund became champion. Vince flew me to his headquarters and then we spent three hours at his house talking WWF and yes wrestling figures too. He told me then that he wanted Hogan to retire as the Babe Ruth of Wrestling and this was going on while Hogan was crushing him at WCW! So to Hogan's credit, he wasn't ready to retire and had he followed what Vince wanted there would have been no NWO. Vince was concerned that the endless money of Turner was an overwhelming obstacle back then to his credit he ran a more fiscally sound organization and was beyond passionate to win and he did. I think WWE is a young man's business and Vince is quick to push the old out ... I say that because he wanted Flair to retire and Flair went on to keep producing great segments for TNA. I still think he would be a great manager with the WWE. I said that because Vince was finally able to get Sting in his organization and didn't utilize him to his full capability because he wasn't a creation of Vince... I said that because he finally got Kurt angle back and it won't be long until he says goodbye to him. George Forman won the Heavyweight Championship in his 40's and that was real! I think these guys have plenty to offer still. I went on the road with Vince for 4 days and saw the interworkings and was offered a job! I felt honored and grateful. I loved wrestling but was lucky to be doing something else at the time that was a better fit for me. I was in the box in Anaheim two years later and again Vince was super kind to me. I have so much respect for him and he clearly he knows what he is doing ... I just respectfully wished he would allow more legends to be made and I truly think that is where the stumbling block is. Just my opinion!
Okay ... now start attacking me again ... Whooooooooo!

If you can't tell the difference between your private videos being leaked and openly being paid to star in pornographic film, then I don't know what to tell you. Stop bloody gaslighting. I understand the difference just fine thanks, I just don’t personally think what Chyna did is any worse than what Paige and Co did privately. They had sex. What Chyna did was for public consumption and she got paid for it. I was using Paige’s situation as an example in terms of bringing bad PR onto WWE (the reason used against Chyna), it was just the obvious comparison to be made. Lots of wrestlers have done very bad and even illegal things over the years, yet still get toys made of them. Chyna had sex on film for money and it’s heresy! Daftness. My post may be clumsily worded but my point is there somewhere. Paige didnt do anything wrong, the point is, neither did Chyna yet she gets judged differently. It doesn’t change the fact that WWE is changing slowly and I think Chyna will get a fig eventually.

Normally I'd agree, but not this time. Those paige leaks weren't your standard leak.

The act itself is no different between Paige and Chyna. They had sex, that’s it.

Lots of wrestlers have done very bad illegal things over the years, yet still get toys made of them. Chyna shagged some people on film for money and it’s heresy! Daftness. The US has some weird effin’ hang ups about sex yet kids receiving guns as a right of passage is just mighty fine. It’s backwards and I will never understand it. My post may be clumsily worded but my point is there somewhere. I’m saying Paige hasn’t done anythong wrong, the point is, neither has Chyna yet she gets judged differently. it doesn’t change the fact that WWE is changing slowly and I think Chyna will get a fig eventually.

Regardless if the WWE is slowly changing or not as long as Mattel’s logo is on the package Chyna isn’t happening. Bill has said there’s no way Mattel will ever make her. So unless Mattel’s stance on her changes there’s not going to be a Chyna figure by Mattel. As for Razor/Hall I don’t think Bill ever said they wouldn’t make him because of the drugs or him killing someone in self defense. I always took it as because he wasn’t under a WWE Legends/merchandise contract. And once he was they made him. But in Chyna’s case Mattel came out and said they will never make her because she was a hardcore porn star.
