He was on my layover from Tampa to Detroit. He is freaking huge! He said he will get a legends style figure but it will be some kind of exclusive. He didn't know if that meant two pack or online.
Sorry if this is old news.
BTW he has got one sweet MULLET .That's what made me look at him in the first place, he seemed nice ( a little upset with the flight crew when boarding they made him wait for his section to be called to the gate)(he tried going up to early).Me and my wife were thinking that would of been crazy if he was seated next to us ( I would of bothered the heck out of him).No one else seemed to notice him.

I guess thats what happens when your thankful for nothin' ;D
Real talk tho nice story, i for one would pass on a tatanka figure but i'm pretty sure theres lot of people who would want one, and it would be cool to see a mattel take on his look after seeing that crap jakks made.

Would love a Tatanka figure in blue.
Didn't get the jakks one as it was too fat for my scale liking.

thats awesome that u met him and that hes getting a figure. ive always been a fan of his. if its some kind of exclusive i too wonder if its a 2 pack or online exclusive. If its a 2 pack who would he come with? off the top of my head i cant really remember his greatest feuds or storylines. im not sure how well an online exclusive tatanka would sell unless they really went all out. like an ax, head dress and maybe some other stuff. im not sure y his classic Jakks figure came with a bow and arrow. i get that he was a native american but i dont remember him ever carrying that out.

For the two pack maybe:
Martel (took his Indian feathers)
Gonzalez (ended his winning streak I think)
Sherri (didn't she manage him for a brief period?)
It could be somekind of assortment specific to a store we don't even know about yet (like a K-mart exclusive series or something).
I don't know, I wish Mattel was on here more to shed some light. I think with the quality of Mattels accessories it will be better than Jakks Classic and regular release.

The Tatanka & Ludvig Borga 2-pack idea would be awesome!
Shame about the exclusive part but I'll still get him!

By huge do you mean muscular or in terms of chub?

Wrestlemania 9 Shawn Michaels & Tatanka pack please!  Or if it's going to be a online exclusive make a 3 or 4 pack with Luna and/or Sherri. |

I believe Ludvig ended Tatanka's winning streak. I remember being wowed that he finally lost.
But Mattel would do an awesome Tatanka figure. Better than the overly chubby version Jakks gave us.

You are right, I stand corrected. I just watched the match on youtube. Pins the man with a finger on the chest to end a awesome undefeated streak . |

I've always liked Tatanka. He was my fav. at one time when I was a kid. A couple other big feuds were with Bigelow and Luger.

I liked Tatanka. I would love a figure in white pants, his debut attire.

I would like a Legends figure of Tatanka. I think Mattel could really do a good job with him. Especially, if they gave him the full headdress.
