I'm pretty sure Mattel hasn't made a Ric Flair from his 91 through 93 WWF run. It seems he had shorter hair....i would think it might come with the WWF title? Am I missing something? If so, which is the one most associated with that run?

His hair wasn't particularly shorter, like it was a few years later. His Retrofest figure is based on Wrestlemania VIII.

The DM head and robe on the HOF body is a perfect representation of that era.

I thought that Retrofest figure was perfect for his first WWF run.

Flair pretty much wore the same attire(s) for like 20yrs. So you put the retrofest head on any figure you have his wwf run. If you put the long haired 4 pack/FC basic head on any of them you have his NWA run.

Well, there’s the Retrofest, which even though he wore it regularly was supposed to be his attire from Mania VIII.
But I am kind of surprised we haven’t gotten black/white/silver robed Flair with short hair and the WWF Winged eagle.

I guess I was looking at the hair. Yes it wasn't the weird flair for the gold wcw era hair but it was shorter and less flowing in wwf. Poofy at the top and a little long but not past the shoulders. I would like a green robe from the funeral parlor or survivor series era.

The black DM robe on the 4 Horsemen figure is pretty much Rumble 92. I swap the heads of those figures but I would like a new head with shorter hair, assuming they can make Flair again

It feels like every Mattel Flair is a mashup. Even the retirement DM.

We need mid 90s Flair. And a color besides red, black, or blue...    I’m not sure why Mattel hasn’t made one of these but for Ric Flair...  The yellow looks great but i would buy all of them. |

I'd pay top-eBay dollar for that yellow WCW Flair. So great.

That green, WCW era Flair is one of my biggest wants.

Yep - the RetroFest and DM heads are close enough to match his look in the early 90's. I actually popped a shorter-haired Jakks Flair head onto the black HOF 4-pack Flair to make my own first WWF run Flair. I am more waiting on a bowl cut version like he had in the mid-to-late 90's with WCW and green tights with yellow boots.
