Mattel really dropped the ball on Jericho. SAVE_US.Y2J with the Matrix tights and any WCW are huge omissions. Even the Best of Attitude Era was a disappointment being an elite version of a basic we’ve already got and a t-shirt I barely remember him wearing. Plus the butterface on WM19.

Mattel could have remade all Jakks Jerichos and printed money, Green tights WM18, Purple Barbed Wire tights, a non DA Codebreaker tights, WCW Lionheart, any Rockstar Jericho. Basically any long tights Jericho, I think Mattel did five .. EG, RSC WM19, TNF, BOTAE, DM .. long tights Jericho in the whole run |

But I always wonder whether these are design calls on Mattel's end vs what WWE shoots down. Jericho is available for ages, yet they finally were getting around to a WCW version when he pauses wrestling in WWE, and then he's gone. Did they wait too damn long? Or did they try putting that figure in for years and WWE objected? I'm hoping an early career Jericho is high on Jazwares list whenever they start doing some throwback figures. |

The were also gaps in his employment throughout the line where he may not have been under any sort of merch deal while he was doing Fozzy stuff or just working house shows. |

Nice. Ive only ever had 2 Chris Jericho figures (Toybiz WCW Lion Tamer, Jakks RA in purple tights that came with John Cena) but I sold one and traded the other. I am looking for a Jakks RA or WCW Jericho and would buy the Jazwares AEW Jericho if I ever see it in stores.

Very nice. You need the AEW series 1 figure. It’s a very nice figure. The B/O Attitude era would be much better if they gave him plain black knee pads. I don’t ever remember him wearing red barbed wire pads.

Which is your favourite figure? I think mine is that ringside exclusive you have sealed on the top shelf. I love everything about that figure.

Love the ‘Wall of Jericho’ collection!
Cool, how you display based on year/era not brand of figures.
For a single wrestler collection it looks good that way.

I have quite a few I am really fond of, then really random ones like the Kinder Surprise Jericho from Germany or the very random Chinese knock off I found on EBay, has Jakks mould Hardy pants, solid arms, DA19 head scan and different skin tones for each part. Having a retro Jericho in hand almost 30 years after my first Hasbro figures brought a tear to my eye I think my favourite one is the WM21 flashback WM18 green tights RA, that was the one I had always planned to keep as the last part of my last collection before I decided to just go Jericho-scentric. Honestly though it’s like asking me to choose between my children, they all have a special part to me over 25 years of Being a Jericholic  |
