If Lucha Underground continues to do well and considering they have an actual tv show, could we see a line of figures sometime in the future?
The thought of getting an actual Ricochet figure (albeit as Prince Puma) is too awesome.

There are certainly enough personalities being developed to sell that if they made a series of singles figures and two packs I would probably buy them all. If this is how Mexico wants to introduce lucha libre to the United States toys should be inevitable if the show builds enough of a following and can find someone to make the toys.
Prince Puma, Big Ryck, Johnny Mundo, Chavo Guerrero Jr, Fenix and Drago would be my top singles wants while I would undoubtedly buy two packs of Cisco & Castro, Son of Havoc & Ivelisse and Mil Muertes & Catrina.
That could be Series 1 right there and with Konnan, Blue Demon Jr, Pentagon Jr, Alberto Del Rio coming into the mix and others they could have a solid line really.

LLUSA had a line so I don't see why Underground couldn't as well. If someone thinks they can make money off the show then they will.

I wish I could have gotten in on that, but my point is that I'd someone thinks they're is money to be made with a Lucha Underground line then they'll give it a shot. And the failure of LLUSA doesn't necessarily mean that this would fail too. I know that an underground figure line would more than likely fail, but the failure of one company doesn't mean that another will fail too. For example, if the upcoming ROH figures are as crappy as everything things they are going to be and fail as a result of that, that doesn't mean that some good ROH figures from a better company would also fail.

The mask stayed in my collection because it's pretty cool and weird.

As someone who didn't mind the LLUSA figures and is looking forward to the ROH figures, I'd be interested in seeing something for Lucha Underground.

I was thinking about who could make Lucha Underground figures since there are only so many toy companies out there. It'd be kind of awesome if Hasbro made them and they looked similar to the WWF Hasbro line only with new parts and not action features per se. This would somehow stick to the simplicity of traditional lucha libre figures while also have figures that stand out from everything else out there right now. I mean, I'm not saying use a Hulk Hogan Hasbro body mold for Big Ryck but have them be of a similar size and look, just with new parts.
