Yeah, a simple decision could have been made but again, it's not driving me nuts. It's not like they have him a skinny body or Yokozuna body or something. Macho want as shredded as they make him but it is what it is. But it is a skinny body. Prime Ron Simmons was a much larger man than Alberto Del Rio. The man was thick and wide, similar to Davey Boy Smith but naturally lol. Wide chest, thick huge legs and keister lol. Mattel has a damn good parts catalog, it's just missing a few needed molds. Beefier singlet, thick but non muscular torso that isn't Hulk Hogan or Rusev, and maybe singlet mold on the original bald Kane chest for his 2001-03 days. All we really need desperately imo. I meant like Elsworth skinny. I'm not saying it couldn't have been better with a simple choice, but it's set, and either you're buying it or not. I am. And it's something I can overlook in the big picture of being just glad they made this.

Look, I'm just glad to get a Ron Simmons with that version of the WCW belt. Torso may not be 100% but whatever. It's a mass produced $20 toy. I'm ok with it. If it was like a $65+ figure, yeah, I'd be peeved, but it's not and again I'm just happy we're getting this. Now get us a Farooq with helmet!!!!! I'd agree with you if we were talking about them having to design a new torso for him, but they could have easily used a beefier one already in circulation. It's a baffling design decision, regardless of the figure's price point. Yeah, a simple decision could have been made but again, it's not driving me nuts. It's not like they have him a skinny body or Yokozuna body or something. Macho wasn't as shredded as they make him but it is what it is.

This pic makes me want to cringe except Kurt Angle looks great and there’s a macho man in there. I hope Mattel is done with USA attires now. We still need Undertaker from Survivor Series with the Flag Lining Jacket! MURCA! DON'T BE A CUCK! (i'm joking, making fun of any adult dumb enough to act like that's a real insult.)

I just found basic Rhyno. I don't have many basics, but this is such a solid figure, especially compared to the elite, I had to have it. I have 4 basics, this is one, it's great, buy it. Just for curiosity what are other 3 basics you have? Both surfer Stings and M$M Walmart Flashback.

Last year I didn't get too many figures until the end of the year with the Black Friday sale. This year, based on NYTF and this show, I'm gonna go broke.

Interchangeable heads and hands. That’s how you step up your game, Mattel. Nicely done. Bang bang, too sweet, VADER TIME. Let's do this Mattel!

See....I think Chyna could be a "maybe" still. X-Pac was in one of those videos and we have 3 Waltman figures. I think she'll have to get some sort of pity recognition from WWE etc but I don't think she's out of the realm of possibility.

Here's my POV on this: Benoit is the only "never" figure. Everyone else, even Owen, is possible IF the rights get worked out.
No one thought Jarrett would be in the HOF, BOOM, here we are. No one thought we'd see so many things, and that always changes. People change their minds, apologize, re-work relationships. And as far as "they won't sell" LOL yeah they will. Maybe they'll be a "chase" variant, maybe they'll shelf warm, but they'll get made and sell enough to validate the damn production.
So don't freak, don't say never (unless it's Benoit) and don't speculate weird narratives.
Mattel Design Team, on that note, BASTION BOOGER PLEASE!

Touhy Target in Evanston had basic 81 some with MITB cases, all cards are jacked to hell though. I just grabbed a Rhyno. They also have AJ, Joe and Jack from the elite line. I'm 100% certain they have HoC in the back. I'm set so I didn't ask but they pop up on brick seek so there's something.

None. I don't want a ring and there's no version of anyone they'd make that they haven't already that would get me to go in for one.
Edit- ok maybe Owen Hart. MAYBE.
