Red Rooster! This would be a perfect time to include an alternate head sculpt so us old school Mid-South/UWF fans could get a Taylor figure when he was legit one of the best in the biz. And I wouldn't mind a Ted DiBiase, Dr. Death, Hacksaw Duggan and Freebirds either. That's a great surprise. Just spitballin here but i bet it wouldnt be too hard to cut the red mohawk off and have a classic taylor I'm hoping they make it that way! Really thrilled about him though as I didn't even think Taylor/Rooster was a possibility. I'm watching a bunch of 1985 stuff now and Valentine just lost the IC belt back to Tito so I want a Valentine and a pre-Strikeforce Tito. |

Maybe savio vega is not too far fetched anymore Savio Vega in the Flashback series with a Build a In-Your-House set would be INSANE. |

Whats this place's obsession with Valentine? Just curious. It's the "movement" idea. Generate enough talk about a person, get their figure, then move on to someone else. I want his figure, but won't insert my desire for one into every thread. |

While we're killing time...
Valentine was tag team champions with Flair in Mid-Atlantic
Had a bitter feud with Piper culminating in a double dog collar match
Tag champs with Beefcake as original Dream Team and lost to Bulldogs
Completes the 1990s Million Dollar Team with already released DiBiase, Undertaker and Honky Tonk Man
Finishes another tag team - Rhythm and Blues
IC and tag team champion
US tag team champ with Terry Taylor

Red Rooster will be the new Tito it'll never sell well. Hopefully it's a exclusive to somewhere and not in a line. Lol agreed! Tito’s going to have a new best friend if this hits retail |

Whats this place's obsession with Valentine? Just curious. He's very long overdue for a figure, very good wrestler too, if you don't want him, fine, no ones forcing you too, but a lot of people want him, including me Wasn't attacking my man. I'm just curious. I don't buy every figure, I buy what I like. This place gets up in arms over not having him and I'm just interested in why there's so much love for a guy that no one talks about in any other scenario. |

For the sake of discussion, going off of the recent Topps Legends card set it looks like names under contract who haven't had a Mattel figure include:
Backlund
Don Muraco
Dory Funk
General Adnan
Gerald Brisco
The Goon
Valentine
Haku
Harley Race
Norman Smiley
Pat Patterson
Rocky Johnson
Sherri Martel
Tatsumi Fujinami
Terri Runnels
Terry Taylor (which we just saw)
I'm almost certain Topps is similar to Mattel and only uses characters already under contract with WWE. There are likely others under contract not on this list since the Topps set only has 100 cards, but it's probably a solid working list.

That supersized head ruined any hopes of converting it into an Elite. The black tights were an odd color choice since he seemed to wear red or blue 90% of the time.
