I'd probably buy an Ahmed Johnson. Same here, he was a great talent in his days

I want an Ahmed. He was pretty big in 95-97 and I was always suprised JAKKS never made a figure of him in the CS line. Just imagine what his CS would've looked like, missing his quadpads and whatnot. Mattel will surely impress us with all the details, no doubt.

Wow suprised at all the ahmed love. Maybe they can make a big talker flex force of him yelling "I ani't lettin no b***h hit me" lol.
But seriously, when I saw he was asking on fb for any way to contact mantaur, I figured for a signing or apperance. But after a week or to he said it was for mattel. I'll send him a message and ask if he got ahold of him......

Man if Mattel keeps making all of their figures sweet, I wouldn't have a problem buying a Mataur figure....It would be awesome if they really try to complete an ultimate wrestling figure line, where they would make a fig for everyones wants

I want Ahmed in his super uncomfortable attire he had on for this WWF magazine shoot back in the day. I remember it clear as day. He had on daisy dukes, a kind of ripped tank top, and a fanny pack. He was also posed on a motorcycle. Those images are burned in my brain for life...and now I want it in plastic. This is one of the images, but this one's not as offensive as this spread eagle one he posed for:

I will Mark Out for sure should we get Ahmed Johnson! I was a proper Mark for him during 1996 - 1997, was devestated when him & HBK didn't get the Tag Titles because of Faarooq Asad's debut! LOL. As long as they get the detailing right & make it quite a chunky figure as Ahmed was huge (and I don't mean Big T wise, Ha, Ha ). There's an idea, if they're doing Ahmed, they should do Faarooq in his debut attire with removable helmet. And Jakks never did the Smoking Gunns as a 2-Pack either, so just imagine Mattel doing that, Cowboy hats, Coats & can't forget those awesome looking Mustaches. ;D

Be patient, my son. We will have our day of hockey players, trashmen, hog farmers, and minotaurs!

I would love that... All though He would still be Spellbinder to me I trust Mattel when it comes to obtaining all the awesomely bad gimmicks. Why don't they make the Goon? If they were to make Bill Irwin, I would prefer a Wild Bill figure, maybe even a Long Riders set. The Goon would be cool though. I'm for any classic wrestler being made, whether they were all that great or not. especially when it would make as cool a figure as Mantaur would.

Angel Beast: The Creationist....Dude...I said Mantaur should be behind Gillberg, not ahead of him! I'd rank Gillberg between the Gobbly Gooker & Buck "Rock n Roll" ZumhofIf that figure ever gets made, I will off myself.
