Would be really cool if it was Y2J but all these times RSC kept saying the Y2J doesn't sell for them as much as they like.

Needs to be Jericho with the yellow and black tights or the black with the lion skeleton. Wouldn't that be out first WCW flashback and not WCW/NWO?

Ive gone from being super hyped about this to just not giving a damn anymore. The dragging it out is turning into the Daniel Brayn "push" to the point when they finally announce it people just dont give a crap cause they're gonna be so disappointed cause its not a guy they wanted like Razor, Hogan, Flair etc. Its even getting repetitive where the same 3-5 people are just posting over and over in the thread with opinions and no foundation to make them facts. Just announce the figure already so we can move on to bitching about it. Couldn't have summed it up better myself Couldn't agree more guys. |

And if it is in fact Jericho, what a disappointment. It would have been decent if they had just announced it without all the hype. Hell, it's really similar to Jericho's ridiculous 2012 return to WWE. What a  ing waste of awesome vignettes and hype. Tons of promos and cryptic messages should only be reserved for groundbreaking announcements. |

But it needs to have the Monday Night Jericho shirt. Could you imagine a Jericho figure that came with a juvi mask and a knee brace. Remember when he was collecting trophies from everyone he beat. They could use the TV title of Cruiserweight Title. They seem to like to introduce new belts with these RSC exclusives. |

Now I'm thinking The Rock makes more sense, I mean besides a new head sculpt, what unique exclusive part/accessory would Y2J have?
A purple IC belt and unused Brahma Bull title would be different enough and Rock would probably sell better characterwise. Then again, Brock just came with a newer undisputed title and shirt so I suppose anything's possible, hrm.

In a perfect world- Chris Jericho, with a Monday Night Jericho T-shirt and either the TV Title or the Cruiserweight Title. Any of his WCW pants. I wouldn't even care. And they can use the Defining Moments head scan. The TV title would be tremendous IMO. |

I think the Jericho crowd is reaching because they want it to be Jericho. Jericho left WWE in July. This Exclusive was seemingly planned around October. Jericho isn't under contract, as he's not like The Rock or Undertaker where he's essentially under a legends deal with seemingly giant payouts whenever he gets in the ring. He's like RVD, where he works for a stretch, it allows merchandise to be made, and then all that ends when his contract expires. That's just the way I understand that whole deal judging by what Mattel has explained to us about Brock and RVD in the past. Jericho is really the only name left floating around that I would buy honestly. I would love a man of 1004 holds Jericho, or especially a Mania XIX Jericho, but I'm not seeing it. The Rock and Undertaker both seem far more likely to me. I hope it's someone from WCW honestly, but it's likely to be some form of "repaint" and it's likely to be a top caliber talent. I've definitely lowered my expectations after the last hint. Having Flair and Edge, and even Austin, knocked out really took it down a level, and that was after already taking it down a level from the no members of the NWO clue. We're still having fun though. Everyone just relax. It's fun to guess and speculate and it has given us something to talk about for almost 100 pages, and it hasn't even been announced yet. Who cares if the actual exclusive is a let down, I've enjoyed the ride so far. Hey, it could still be my most wanted Mattel of all time, Raven. So keep hope alive haha |

You might be right on the Jericho fans stretching for it to be him, but I'll be damned if I don't want him!  I'm having trouble figuring out what attires Rock and Undertaker could possibly have that would be noteworthy enough to warrant an exclusive. Rocky Maivia? I don't think anyone's clamoring for that. Rock Concert? Too simple. They've basically made all of Undertaker's looks unless they do a long-hair American Bad Ass figure :\ |

My money is on a Chris Jericho exclusive figure. And I would KILL for a WCW TV Title. My favorite title belt of all time based on looks. The only replica belt I ever bought. My backyard wrestling federation's 'world heavyweight championship' back in the day, lol.
RSC saying that he "doesn't sell well" for them is BS. When E20 came around, I didn't get a chance to pre-order Y2J in time, before it was on back-order. Then, I hunted it down and happened upon ONE in Target, and that was that. I never saw another E20 Jericho except the one I was lucky enough to find. There are no Elite Chris Jericho figures in-stock at RSC... not even a loose one! You'd think, I mean- for a figure that sells so poorly- that they'd have multiple Y2J figures to choose from, new and loose, deeply discounted.
His figures sell well, the proof is in the pudding. Even with Mattel and how, when they release an Elite figure of someone (up until recently where they seem to have caught-up a little bit), it is usually 9 months to a year out of when that wrestler wore that attire. For example, again: E20 Y2J came with his attire from his Wrestlemania match/feud with CM Punk... a year later, we get a Y2J fig with "BEST IN THE WORLD" emblazoned on the back of his tights. However outdated it may have been, it sold well... I only found one in stores, while everyone else in that series warmed the shelves and ended up on MattelShop for $11.99. I think you can still get Christian and Santino for that price or less.
Lionheart Chris Jericho, with WCW World Television Title, would be awesome and is the only way to go IMO with the clues provided. My question is: when are they going to reveal who it is? After 10 clues? I hope it doesn't take that long...

It's not that fans are reaching for a Y2J figure but it makes sense with the hints. Also he has had one of the best careers is Pro Wrestling throughout ECW, WCW, and WWE. His title history alone warrants him as an excellent choice for a RSE.
