I def think they can make a better figure! This is why I was wondering because I realized how bad her Jakks figures were. This one was the first to use the newer female body but she had no attire lol. Her second figure had an awkward mold due to using the same body but different legs and I wasn't kean on the face scan. Torrie has some great figures over the years in my opinion. It really sucked we never got a good Vince's Devils era 3 pack. The heel Torries they gave us had a horrible scan and it took forever to get a good Victoria! I just recently acquired the GAB Torrie. She's got a decent scan and outfit, but there's no way to ever display her without the soft goods coat due to staining. I don't know what they colored that coat with but it stained like crazy. Red everywhere. That is one of the best Diva figures of all time. Her face scan was perfect. I always preferred that body as well to the newer RA bodies. Yeah it was overused but along with the soft goods it tend to work well.

Should be an Entrance Great with her theme song (which was also used by Justin Gabriel in FCW) Oh. Oh my. Just... why. Man, I think I'd rather listen to the Right To Censor theme on a loop than hear that again. lol

I'd really like a Candice Michelle figure from Mattel. If she was ever signed, she would probably only get one figure though. The robe and wand would make for a good Elite, while Vengeance 2007 could work as an Elite or a Basic.

I doubt it on that one but the classic ladies I want the most are Sable, Marlena, Kiebler, Torrie Wilson, Bodydonna Sunny

If Sable wanted a deal she'd have one by now. Kiebler doesn't seem to want anything to do with wrestling either. Terri is/was under a deal, but had a figure scrapped, and doesn't sound like it'll be revisited. I can definitely see Torrie being under a deal and has merch on wwe.com I believe. And while Sunny would seem off limits, maybe not if they're making Chyna.

I really hope Mattel moves forward with Marlena as singles release. I don't think she needs to be in a 2-pack with Goldust to sell. People will buy her to go with the Goldust they already have.

For those who would want her it would be a cool figure, but for me personally she's not even in my top 10 women figures i want.

She was a beautiful lady but the only thing I remember her from was GoDaddy and that spin move she did. I only remember that and an episode of an Cinemax show that will remain nameless.

I remember that RA26 Candice didn't have her robe on the cardback for some reason. It was the only decent Candice they made. The others had worse face paint. Torrie has some great figures over the years in my opinion. It really sucked we never got a good Vince's Devils era 3 pack. The heel Torries they gave us had a horrible scan and it took forever to get a good Victoria! I would love to see Mattel's take on Torrie Wilson. Same with Stacy Keibler. Mattel didn't do Stacy justice. I just recently acquired the GAB Torrie. She's got a decent scan and outfit, but there's no way to ever display her without the soft goods coat due to staining. I don't know what they colored that coat with but it stained like crazy. Red everywhere. They changed the material used for GAB Torrie's coat later in the run. The shinier material (on the left) did not stain the figure like the original cloth they used. I had both but eventually sold the original release.

Those Stacy scans look really good for 2002-2004

I think they've made some super obscure people lately, so I don't suppose Candice is too far off. During her time, she was pretty much the top of the women's division. Away from Melina, Candice was probably the women's divison's face from 2006-2007.
I still can't believe they made Wendi Richter. That one figure would give me hope that Candice could be made.

I imagine she would get an updated figure if she becomes a Legend in the future. I think other divas might have higher chances.

I'll keep my eye out for the shiny version. Man, those Stacy's. I have the pink shirt figure because it's the easiest one to get a hold of. Stacy figures in general are nigh impossible to come by anymore. Someday I will get my hands on the wrestling attire one so I can custom Super Stacy to complete my Hurrifriends set. But the problem is that while the wrestling attire has the body I need, the one on the far right has the headsculpt I want. Basically, I want *that* head on *that* body, then customize. But good luck finding either of those figures any time soon.

OMG I'm having Jakks days flashbacks....anyone remember how difficult this was to find, it was put into the last set of RA's with Benoit, it was in RA26, She wasn't in the first wave, but the second shipment she was included. $100+ people were getting for it when it first came out. I remember cutting open 3 cases of the 3 cases they had at some Walmart and I got one. Man It was great to find her. And it was 26, which Benoit was pulled from production after everything went down. I could def. see a Candice, but I'd take a Torrie Wilson, Stacy Keiber, Terri Runnels, & Sable (2002-2003 era) over. Wonder if Mattel can make a better figure I member. I found her at kmart. Kmart was a good place to find "rare" figs. I'm pretty happy with this fig so if Mattel never makes one id be ok with it.

Given the climate of Women's Wrestling today, her chances are very slim. Even if she had a legends contract, people would still complain that her spot should have been given to a more deserving female wrestler. plus, given the job they recently did on Chyna, they would end up botching it.

I'm still sticking with my story on that Chyna figure simply being faulty because it's from a transitional phase for her. She's midway between her original "butch" look, and her 1999 and onward feminine look. If they had made a figure of her from her original look OR her 1999- look, it'd be fine. But making her look midway in between is just off-putting. Even Jakks knew better than this. The BCA figures were the first body type, the TTLs were the second. There was no middle ground figure.

I donβt see it anytime soon, but I do think sheβs likely to be be made in a few years when nostalgia does the mid-aughts to mid-10s hits, similar to the Ruthless Aggression-era nostalgia of right now.
