I got to meet Terry once, briefly, when visiting the Performance Center. Told him I enjoyed his stuff in WCW when he was the Taylor Made Man. Seems like a cool guy. I would definitely buy this figure. Hopefully it won't be a task to find it.

Another self-indulgent release from Bill's personal list of wants. I'd rather have this than another Roman, Cena, or some obscure 205 Live spot monkey.

No $#it, wouldn't YOU if you ran the line? Uh no. That's not how you run a business. Bill has a duty to Mattel, WWE, and consumers to release products that are desirable and financially successful. Red Rooster is a random piece of fandom that should be reserved as an SDCC exclusive or strictly on a promotional basis if at all. Uh...it IS an exclusive. It was suppose to be a TRU Fan Central release. I'm sure Bill gets an OK before he can work on a set. I'm sure he tries to cover a whole array of fan bases when he works on lines. Just cause you don't like it, doesn't mean it was a bad business choice. People said the same crap when Magnum finally came out but I was waiting years for that to come out and I bought 4 of them.

What are the chances of seeing this and Shark on Ringside if no retailer picks them up?

Red Rooster is a random piece of fandom that should be reserved as an SDCC exclusive or strictly on a promotional basis if at all. Lolololol. We get one mid-carder from the late 80s and now we're talking about Bill's "Duty to Mattel"? Chill out, man. We're almost a decade into the line and the line absolutely needs more obscure names and fresh faces from the older years to keep older collectors like myself interested. If you're not a fan, you don't have to buy it -- pretty simple. I'm more geeked out about this figure than 95 percent of what has come out lately from Mattel, so you're only speaking for yourself.

Thats not just one figure, its an entire mass release line that is rotting on shelves and marketed to girls who watch wrestling and buy toys which is about as niche as you can get.

If the rumours about Mr Taylor are true it is probably best to wash your hands after purchasing the figure... Gonna have to spell this joke out for me. Will grab for my Mattel Heenan family collection. Would have preferred the robe he gifted to Roode tho. And wtf is up with those knee pads?

Could also be a TRU CA exclusive like Shark. Fortunately the nearest CA TRU is only 90 minutes away...

I’m sure most of you saw this, and I’m sure the rest already assumed, but when Bill was pressed about Red Rooster being released in the states, he Tweeted we will get an answer at SDCC.

Will more than likey be a Canada Exclusive, so I’ll either wait until it pops up on Amazon or black friday sales.
