Haahahaha, I love that dollarbill04 came forward with an honest to goodness request that was a bit over the top, got hit with the typical WF sass from a mod, and then plastictaxicab came swooping in with the total bro move and gave him exactly what he wanted. FiGuRe CoLlEcToRs ArE a CoMmUnItY |

Looking at the current preorder numbers, that Doink prototype might well become one of the rarest wrestling action figures ever. Move over Kamala and Valentine. 😮💨

i love it so much. i feel even people who don't want it should still appreciate that mattel is releasing a rather obscure character like this. |

The goon is cool but was anybody really clamoring for him? Couldn't u just get a generic hockey figure & put him in your display? For me literally anybody from this era would have been better. Bertha Faye, shinobi, Brooklyn brawler, kimchee, jean Pierre, Barry Horowitz, Salvatore sincere, etc

Mattel's doing a decent job pumping out "did-they-really-just-do-that" characters (e.g. Shockmaster, Virgl w/ convention sign, Isaac Yankem, Goon, etc.). Not nearly at the same rate as Jakks' "WTF" figures, but higher quality and better execution. I also don't think they have the same direct access to talent as Jakks enjoyed. Hoping for Duke Droese one day  |

Yeah, when I heard they were releasing a Goon figure I figured that would be an easy pass. But after seeing it, now I want it. The figure turned out really well. Looks great. |

Goon almost makes me want to start a New Generation collection. Shame the perfect Doink and a sweet Diesel probably won’t be part of it.

How tf am I looking more forward to The Zodiac, The Goon & Andre from the Six Million Dollar Man than all the other showings beside UE Kane and Batista?
I wish UEs were as loaded with accessories as Batista’s. I might just get two to make his Deluxe Aggression series 1 / Vengeance ‘05 HIAC attire.

Oh no.
I need that Goon.
Put another tick on the tally for "figures of characters I have zero interest in whatsoever but their figures are too gorgeous for me not to want"

Did anyone else notice that The Goon's shorts look blue in the render? I hope they don't turn out that way...They should be black.
