I know right, they can probably just magic one into stores next week if they want. In reality, remember that Mattel's WWE department doesn't just produce one action figure. The line is constantly rolling out new figures, every month. Anyone new has to fit into that workflow. They can't just halt production on everything for the sake of getting Tensai out in time for impatient overgrown children on forums. In the Jakks WWE days, we would have already had Masked Kane, Brock Lesnar, Tensai, and probably Ryback or Damien Sandow by now.

That is so freaking awesome Love this set already. So here is the predicted line-up and part distribution: Fig 1. Randy Orton with torso. Fig 2 Rey Mysterio with arms Fig 3 John Cena with head and coat Fig 4 Big Show with legs. This is suggesting that Mattel sticks with using the most produced figures If the line looks anything like this it would be a total pass for me. I like Ricardo but not that much, and trying to unload these figures on the trades board or on ebay without the BAF parts will be impossible. Lets not forget that there is a 5th figure that doesn't include a BAF piece. My guess on that one is either COO Triple H (which wouldn't make sense since we wasn't in CCO suit at WM) or the Undertaker with that awesome coat.

bah of all the characters they coulda went with, Ricardo is the least wanted by me...I would have much rather prefered the KING jerry lawler to go with the Cole or COO Triple H, or Paul Heyman

For those of u who dont like Ricardo and didnt finish Cole, you can get the remaining pieces to finish Cole. Unless you dont have the Cole head. Then your screwed.

I think its a great idea and far better than a COO HHH. Ricardo really deserves a figure as hes been able to stay relevant for so long and is a mainstay of the Del Rio character. This was really the best chance to include him.

In the Jakks WWE days, we would have already had Masked Kane, Brock Lesnar, Tensai, and probably Ryback or Damien Sandow by now. Yes and they would all be the same size with no scale. First to blazer: no way would Jakks have a Tensai, Lesner or Sandow by now...by October maybe. Second to Chew: Some people want current figures, even if they are all the same size. Getting a masked Cody Rhodes 6 months after he stopped wearing it is useless.

I don't understand why they would make COO Triple H a mailaway..? You would think that someone like that would be in an Elite Series.

Not to mention Brock and Tensai would be missing half their tattoos. Rybacks singlet wouldnt have any detail on the backside and Sandow would probably use the same body as Hulk Hogan.

pass for me as I don't have a del Rio and I don't want to spend too much money on Ricardo. BAF worked out pretty good for me though because I got Cole cheap off ebay ![:)](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/smiley.gif)
