I just messaged MDT (Bill) that Herc's family messaged me again today, after I asked if they ever got ahold of anyone at WWE, they responded: "I tried but never received a response. I really didn't have like a direct contact, I just went on the website and messaged them. Let me know if you may have a contact there. Thank you!" His family is interested in a legends deal and getting figures made of Hercules. I hope Bill sees this thread/message and can direct them on who to contact/talk to. www.facebook.com/The-Hercules-Hernandez-tribute-page-179325732218869/

Thanks for bringing this up! I hope it can happen. A figure of Hercules would be awesome! His LJN was always one of my favorites.

ClassicFan2,
While I would welcome a figure of Hercules, I don't see it happening for the simple reason that WWE (McMahon) doesn't appear to be interested. If I remember correctly, you posted about Herc's family being interested in signing a legends deal a while back yet nothing came of it. Also, you're wasting your time with Bill IMO, he hardly posts on here anymore. Ever since the new Boss man came in he has been MIA on the forums- co-incidence?!
I think a Hercules figure would sell as he is from the 80s Golden Era and a first time in the line guy and those figures tend to sell quite well.

I do hope MattelDesignTeam or dvontu sees this because I would really like to see a Hercules figure in the Elite line. He would be very deserving of a spot and I'm sure it would be a great thrill for his family after all these years. Great job on keeping up with them.

god imagine how that would shelf warm. not if they make and pack em like the old FB's like Shango,Kane,Nash, etc. if they make/pack em like Quake/Typhoon, yes shelves will be toasty.

I'd love a Hercules preferably in black tights but also with his power and glory shirt so I can pick and choose where to display him.

I know the BAFs normally don't do well but a Build a Bobby Heenan would be a good set to do. And build him with Heenan Family members. Hercules, King Harley Race, King Haku, and The Barbarian would be my ideal set.

Very underrated guy around the Prime Time era hec yeah, fueds with haynes, warrior, dibiase were great. main event title match vs hogan on SNME, won the 1st big battle royal on SNME that hulk/andre were in. always on the big cards from 1986-1992. just a huge regular part of the old days that desevres a fig, esp since not having one since ljn days.
