Is it just me or does that bottom left one NOT look like Snuka? I could be wrong, since my phones view is limited, but that's just what I'm thinking.. It's not openning all the way for me, but I didn't think it was Snuka unless he's in his long leapord tights & boots.

Hmm...so there's one remaining it looks like since Steamboat is in Series 1. Perhaps a big name they don't want to reveal yet?

And also, I'm curious as to why that scsa we saw earlier had a different looking package/bubble than steamboats..? Maybe he's part of something else?

Oh yeah, well than maybe Dusty makes six and Series 2 will have a sixth figure named later?

If I know Matty, based upon their DCUC line, I am inferring that the "unknown" figure is a variant of Rick Rude. I can see that it resembles Snuka, but I can't see Matty putting a figure is their less notable attire, especially in series 1. Matty does the variants ALL the time. Surely looks like another Rude to me.

Ugh! I've been waiting for Jake in that gear for years and it has to be a Mattel figure?! Pass!
I'm going to pick up Terry Funk for the head and accessories and Rick Rude for the head.

What kind of victim are you? We have Rude with short hair, Snuka, Terry Funk, Jake Roberts and the Iron Sheik, all in fascinating attires, and you say this selection isn´t great???

These all look amazing. Hands down better than Jakks Classics already from the pics. I wanted Jake and Rude in those attires since I can remember. Thanks Mattel.

Hmmmmm.. I thought the unknown figure was a Rude variant, but as someone pointed out, it has arm bands. Does anyone out there think Matty is intentionally staying away from previously released figure "looks?" If that's Snuka, it's a disappointment. Who truly remembers Snuka with boots and long tights?

I think this shows Mattel has been watching for a while. How long have people asked for that jake, sheik and a short haired rude. not to mention in wave 1 we are getting a pair of AWA LOD. something jakks could never fix for us.
