Jakks may be notorious for reusing the same body over and over but, after looking closely at my half-completed Michael Cole, I got to thinking: Perhaps it wouldn't be so bad if Mattel did the same thing with their new BAF base body. I mean, with new head sculpts and some minor paint tweaks, there are several possibilities...
Teddy Long: New paint deco and a longer rubber coat for his suit.
Referee: New paint deco and no coat piece.
John Laurinaitis: Add the taller Vince/Rock legs.
Ricardo Rodriguez: Pad up the rubber coat piece, ala Vickie Guerrero, to make him bulkier.
Mean Gene Okerlund: Same as Ricardo.
A lot of staff members could be made efficiently this way and I wouldn't really mind if they were all the same height. Who else would you like to see made from this base body?

This is a great idea!
I would like J.R, another Vince McMahon (available in Europe and co.) and Mr. Excitement John Laurinaitis

I'd love to get the above figures mentioned above. I also would love:
Howard Finkel
Gorilla Monsoon (with a few minor tweaks to make him chubbier)
Bobby Heenan (though I would prefer in Weasel suit or blue jacket)

I hope they do make these sort of characters.
Teddy Long has be an on screen character for years and years, so he should be high on the list for a figure.

I really want a Bobby Heenan, but Cole is too short to use the same mold. Coincidentally, Cole and Mean Gene are the exact same height. Fink would work as well with the Cole parts. I think they could get away with using the same mold for Heenan and JR. Suited Triple H is going to be too tall for just about everyone I think, although it will probably be closer to McMahon in height than the TRU version. Monsoon would need a unique mold all his own I would guess.

Perhaps even wrestlers performers who like to wear suits from time to time like The Miz, or Chris Jericho.
