I guess we'll have to disagree, because to me he was awesome as Headshrinker Fatu and part of the Samoan Swat Team. And I would have gladly purchased either. But as Rikishi his claim to fame was the stinkface and being the punchline to all JR and Kings @$$ jokes. No thanks there was nothing cool or entertaining about that. Agreed. Pre-Rikishi he was a very agile big man and half of one of the best tag teams of his era. Rikishi was a childish punchline. You mean that sad redo of the WILD SOMOANS? THAT was pretty jokey that whole New Generation was a PATHETIC JOKE. BEST tag teams of his ear? That 'era' was dogsh*t. Hitman defending his title against skinner? Please Rikishi was in TOP angles, and was a formidable opponent or do you just remember Too Cool? Do your homework - go watch the best Hell in A Cell ever, Armageddon. He had his spot and THEN did the ass stuff - and his song "Put a Little Ass on it..." was f'n hilarious. Too Cool and him had the BEST match on last years old school raw. Fatu THE HOMEBOY - THAT was a f*ckin joke. Normally it's too each his own but saying he was joke is just stupid. I'm done with even commenting on this ridiculousness.

Oh he fell into the back of a truck. That was amazing...not. The "I did it for the Rock" = stupid. Too Cool was an utter joke. Just because someone was in the WWE doesn't mean they were good or had a good gimmick. And half the so called talent in the WWE during the "attitude era" I could easily do without just like there were plenty of guys before and after I could do without.

I completely agree with PJ never got rikishis appeal. He was given a decent push but I could never get over how dumb the gimmick was

Fatu and Samu were teaming up as the Samoan SWAT Team long before the New Generation era. Personally, I liked them much more than the Headshrinkers. None of this changes my opinion that Rikishi was a joke...and not even a funny one. Sorry if you don't like it.

Mattel said years back that Boogeyman was slated for an early elite line but was cancelled when he was released. So maybe one already exists

Boogeyman and Umaga would be nice. So would Mr T. DIdn't include those in my top 10 wants but they are just outside it.

Boogeyman isn't a necessity. However, Umaga with a VAC oval IC title hanging from his mouth is a must.

He needs to come with the alarm clock, worms, and the scare whitey stick. My wife's favorite accessory is MY scary white stick. at least you didn't say white worm

I'd buy the Boogeyman. He may not be headlining Mania or going into the Hall of Fame, but he's a fun character and he has a good look to him. As to the side-discussion that was going on, probably the only gimmick that Rikishi did that I would buy a figure of was the Sultan...and maybe not even that.

Not really a need of mine, but Mattel would kill it.

That'd be an awesome toy. If they'd make that & the Gobbledy gooker, I'd be set for life That gooker is too good to rot in proto form. I'd love to have that as a build-a-figure somewhere down the line.

I am sure they would say no due to paint and accessories costing to much
