Koko is a top want for me and he would make for a fantastic figure. Hope Bill finds a way to get him into the line.

think cause he is part of a concussion law suit against wwe. This or Frankie does not have a contract.  ! That means if dynamite kid ever signs a deal we still won't get the bulldogs, everybody knows Matilda won't sign. |

I feel like it would ROT personally. He was never a relevant part of the show. He hardly won matches. His rereleased classic superstars jakks figure sat at all my local TRU well after Mattel took over the license. If Tito, multiple time champion, and Sid, multiple time champion are everywhere, how well would a nobody sell.... INCLUDES BIRD AND HAIR STRIPES! I guess you were not around in 87, because Koko was one of the top faces on the roster. Big fan favorite, wrestled on most televised shows and provided exciting matches, and sang the title track to Piledriver. Ok, but that was 1987. This is 2016, and Koko B. Ware will warm shelves just like JYD & Tito. If JYD, who was legitimately the 2nd or 3rd top babyface in the WWF at one time, warmed, what are Koko's sales figures gonna look like? |

I'd love a Koko figure, and think Mattel would do a great job on it. However, it would probably warm pegs. JYD and Tito were both really well done figures and still are sitting on shelves all over at clearanced prices.

I'd have to agree that Mattel would crush a koko figure for sure

MattelDesignTeam, can you comment on any of this ? Was he ever signed, planned, or anything looking good for a release down the road ?

JYD & Tito were over produced because of flaws in Mattel reorder system (this came from Bill). JAKKS Titos, JYD or Koko never warmed (& each had 2 different figures). |

Yea, I knew he was promoted, but I'm wondering if it was pulled to make sure it comes out better in the long run, similiar to I.R.S. , or if it was pulled ala Cactus Jack die to a contract problem. |

They never "officially" said why he was removed, but it's assumed because of the lawsuit. He wasn't removed to make it better like IRS was.
