I'd prefer Mortis, but I'd also buy a Glacier. I doubt either will ever happen. Battle pack!

Would love to see a Glacier, Wrath and Mortis figure down the line and would buy all of them! Man, we definitely need more WCW guys! I think a Mortis Elite would be badass

I'm a huge WCW fan but never really got into Glacier. HOWEVER I would certainly encourage Mattel to make flashbacks of people like Glacier. While perhaps not regarded by the mainstream as a "legend" or even particularly successful, Glacier certainly fits into the "memorable" category and for that reason should be welcomed into plastic immortalization. Plus you can't deny his look had visual appeal.
There are plenty of other memorable WCW wrestlers and gimmicks I'd like to see in figure form too. As others have said Mortis would make an amazing looking figure, but personally I'd go even deeper than that into the obscure/unpopular choices. For example, The Yeti and Ralphus. Regardless of how "ridiculous" or "idiotic" any of these characters are branded, for me they are just as part of my memories of wrestling history as Ric Flair and Sting are, and I would love to see figures of them (and yes I am serious).

I would buy any lower to midcard, late 90s WCW guys they release. Glacier, Mortis (and Kanyon), Wrath, Earnest Miller, Disco Inferno, Alex Wright, Psychosis, Juventud Guerrerra, Ciclope, Sgt. Craig Pittman, Cobra/nWo Sting, Scott Norton, Stevie Ray, Renegade, Dave Taylor, Bobby Eaton, La Parka, Kevin Sullivan, Dave Sullivan, Dean Malenko, Ultimo Dragon, Jushin Thunder Liger, Steve McMicheal, Larry Zbyszko, Kenny Kaos, Robbie Rage, Scotty Riggs, Jim Powers, Yuji Nagata (weird to think how low on the card he was), Carl Ouellete, Jacques Rougeau, Buckhouse Buck, Dick Slater, VK Wallstreet, even non-wrestlers like Tony Schiavone, Mike Tenay, Chris Cruise, and Col. Rob Parker... .. but there's no way we're getting any of those, probably ever.. with the possible exception of Dean Malenko and Larry Zbyszko(and if they ever do classic tag teams again, that opens the door for Stevie Ray, Bobby Eaton, and possibly both a Dave Taylor and a WWF Jim Powers). Just gonna have to live with that, but I would LOVE to have those guys above in action figure form. By the way, a quick and easy Glacier custom is to slap an RA Sandman head on this Charlie Haas body.. ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/411dgZf5LeL._SY300_.jpg.. and as an added bonus, you can use the Haas head for a Chris Hero custom. But yeah.. all about a Mattel Glacier!

Should this thread be moved to the Suggestion Board to get this figure on MDT's radar?

Would it be cool? (no pun intended)
Yes.
Will it happen?
No.

Wrath & Mortis looked so badass in full gear. Wrong place, wrong time for that tag team. With Kanyon's pure wrestling ability and ring psychology and Wrath's monster size and power they would've been HUGE in NJPW.
Glacier & The Cat were good compliments to the hugely underrated "blood runs cold" stable/angle. Such a forgotten part of Nitro history.
