After the lenghty thread and interesting poll about the possible release of the Magnum TA figure, I was wondering if we could get a response from anyone on the mattel design team or from any of the ringside guys to get their thoughts on the matter.
Thanks

there is no chance they will ever release it. He's not popular/well known enough to be sold.

He said that if they keep getting good feedback it is a possibility

they get decent feedback on people wanting it. I still say the best way to release him is as part of the build a line to build either Laurinatis or Long.

This figure has a very small chance of being released. I wouldnt hold your breath on it.

I think somewhere down the line we will get his figure, Mattel will have the WWE licence for a long time. Eventually things will settle down and Mattel will finally figure out how to release figures better

would love to add this one to my nwa/wcw collection. really hope they decide to release him. i realize the older generation of wrestlers doesn't sell well in the eyes of mdt, but as a collector who really focuses 90% on legends/flashbacks, it would be great to have this one.

there is no chance they will ever release it. He's not popular/well known enough to be sold. Don't say there's no chance they already spent the money to sign him and make a proto. I can truly see him as either a figure in part of a TRU baf wave or a .5 per case FB. Either way he'd be a limited production and release.

I really hope they do, the biggest name to never have a figure has got to be made!

think about it guys guys like the bushwackers, mike knox, george the animal steale got a chance to fail at mass retail why could Magnum TA not have a chance
and also i think this particular is building a lot of discussion for mattel just to ignore it

He is one of the few legend figures I would have no interest in...BUT I would still buy him to support the line and just use him for custom fodder

Mattel can put a sticker that says "First Time In Figure Form."
