None of those are luchadores. Aaaaanyway, Lionheart Jericho is essential. And even though Jakks did it, I'd be into the Guerrero/Mysterio Halloween Havoc pack getting an updated release You are right! But this thread is not only about hoping to have a figure or two of luchadors, but also about Mattel giving us more cruiser weight figures. When I started the thread I wrote luchadors, but as the thread went on we remember more & more cruiser weights that were part of the cruiserweight division in WCW. So we started writing which ones we liked to see and started figuring out which cruiser weights were logical for Mattel to create. As for Lion Heart Jericho, it is going to be interested to see which one we get first Lion Heart or Undisputed World Champion. When it comes to Mysterio if they are going to to do his Halloween Havoc gear it better be before his contract expires. The WWE & Mysterio got some serious issues with Rey's contract and his days with the WWE are numbered.

Yeah I get that but you literally wrote a list of luchadores with no luchadores is all I'm saying. No big deal.

I believe the closest we have gotten to a company making lucha libre figures was when playmates came out with their Masked Warriors figures for the MTV show. I remember the original prototypes of Dr. Wagner & La Parka, they were simply amazing.

Eh, there's been plenty of lucha figures made over the years. Not much on the level of Jakks/Mattel/Playmates, but they've certainly been produced.
Anyway, something I didn't notice brought up yet regarding Jushin Thunder Liger - His gimmick is based on an anime, leaving the rights tied up elsewhere other than him or NJPW.

There are extremely expensive and extremely hard to find. Plus they are similar to LJN figures or bootleg plastics.

Anything can be found on the internet with ease.
Or at Dollar Tree stores. I got a neat little Mistico there not long ago.

The best La Parka action figure I have seen to date and it was never released. Yes, that is a prototype.

So that's the current La Parka?
I'd like an LA Park if he was appropriately uh, "husky" as he is these days.

Just saw Bill saying what his top 3 figures to make would be, No.1 La Parka & No.3 Psicosis, but he also said the chances of them being made are slim to none. We'll Bill if Luchadors are almost off limits, please give us some cruiser weights.
Here is the video:

What line was it going to be released in? That La Parka was not made by Mattel, it was a prototype of a company that was gonna launch a Triple A line in America. The company never released the figures.
