Mattel's inability to find a spot for the cancelled 2-pack Marlena figure continues to baffle me. I trust that Steve tried, I would just love to know the reason why it didn't happen. Perhaps WWE didn't want them doing Marlena when Goldust wasn't under contract, and they felt like a plain Terri Runnels wouldn't sell well enough. |

I don't think they should have any reservations about releasing a shelf warmer, just make them. There are plenty of current "stars" whose Elite figures are dirt cheap on Amazon and are regularly clearanced to Big Lots and 5 Below.

If Mattel can release Goon and Zodiac figures in the year 2022 then they can certainly release Ivory and Jacqueline.

My women of wrestling figure wishlist, no real order (and yeh some of these are total fantasy land):
Madusa WCW 1996 all american attire
Kimberly Page 1997ish
Marlena
Ivory RTC
Sable
Jacqueline WCW or Early-WWF
Bull Nakano
Chyna 1999/2000 black leather gear with gauntlets/mamacita era
Daffney WCW
Debra McMichael 4 Horsemen/pageant queen look
Woman WCW (will never happen i know, but she was a good character and deserves a figure)
Midajah
Sister Sherri harlem heat
Leia Meow jung dragons
Major Gunns MIA
Paisley artist era
I would probably buy a Nitro Girls pack too, Kimberly, Spice, Chae, etc. not that it's in any way likely to happen

Both women along with Victoria and Luna are my biggest wants from that era and would pretty much fill the void of talent. Sable and Marlena would be good too but not really high on my want list especially Sable since she was a terrible wrestler and as a manager wouldn't have anyone to be paired up with.

As a massive women's wrestling fan I really hope they produce more Legends and Ruthless Agression stars.
With them producing WCW stars i would like to see
Sharmell or Sharmell as Paisley in the Legends Line
Kimberly Page
Rhonda Singh
Akira Hokotu (with the shortlived WCW Women's Belt)
Other Legends
Moolah
Bull Nakano
Velvet McIntyre
Attitude Era Women in Legends Line
Sable
Debra
Jaqueline
Ivory
The Kat
Terri Runnels
Now onto Ruthless Agression series
They've announced Torrie
I hope they bring out
Candice Michelle
Victoria (To complete Vince's Devils)
Jillian Hall
Kristal
An Elite Eve Torres
Lilian Garcia
Elite Layla
Maria (If she signs off on it)

I’m shocked at the apparent lack of interest in Jaqueline and Ivory.
They were legit wrestlers unlike Sable and Marlene.
Not saying I don’t want those but Ivory and Jacquline would make fantastic figures and would be musta of the attitude era imo.

Not saying I don’t want those but Ivory and Jacquline would make fantastic figures and would be musta of the attitude era imo. They unfortunately were better wrestlers during an era when absolutely nobody cared about women wrestling. It was all about the bikini contests and puppies back then. Both had solid runs for sure, but they were never anywhere close to the level of popularity as Sable, Debra and Chyna. Even the likes of Terri and The Kat were more over in 1999 simply because the only thing they offered was over-the-top sex appeal which was the main thing the audience wanted from the women in those days. |

With Molly under contract and if Madusa is still signed then we need Team Madness ASAP. Maybe use that last Trish that looked nothing as Trish for Gorgeous George.

You can probably still find a BCA Jacqueline at your Walmart or Burlington. The BCA Jacqueline was a very weird action figure, esp. for a mass release. The body was one of Jakks more provocative and sexual bucks, aiming to represent a skin-tight female. Then it being the color red upped that even more. I put an extra pair of Goldberg pants on the figure to help tone it down. But from the neck up, it was one of the ugliest headsculpts ever!!! Didn't even look like Jackie at all. Plus, the only reason I had the figure in the first place is it was on super duper clearance at Walmart. Got her to beef up my women's division. Fighter Hayabusa : I would have been ALL OVER a Team Madness 5pack back in the day! Debra Major Gunns I also want Mona/Miss Madness, not just Molly Holly. |

I don't think they should have any reservations about releasing a shelf warmer, just make them. There are plenty of current "stars" whose Elite figures are dirt cheap on Amazon and are regularly clearanced to Big Lots and 5 Below. The turnover on these figures is so consistent that there's rarely a true, universal pegwarmer in the line, and even those don't seem to impact availability of other figures.
Ivory & Jacqueline would be cool, but I want to see them in the Legends line. They have so few spaces for the current women's rosters and a lot of them don't have Elites.

Jackie is the only Jakks fig I have MOC these days. It's a damn shame to not have her in the line.

But.....so many of them do. Bianca Becky Charlotte Asuka Alexa Nikki Cross Liv Lacey Shotzi Natalya Dakota Bayley Iyo Raquel Sonya Zelina Ronda Doudrop There are probably more I'm forgetting Have all had Elites. I do agree that the Target Legends line is the best place for them, but even if they were in the regular line, I'd prefer them over Dana and Tamina (the only two I can think of on the main roster without Elites) any day. |

I'd love to see Ivory & Jacqueline. They were both huge stars right around when my family started re-watching WWE so both stick out to me as significant.
Very happy Torrie is coming (and happy that Trish, Lita, Molly & Stacy are already out). My Top Wants from the era:
1. Ivory
2. Sable
3. Jacqueline
4. Victoria

Xia and Aliyah are the other main roster women without Elites, but they've had plenty of main roster women get cut before being made as an Elite. Almost none of the women on NXT have Elites yet, with a couple of pretty big missing names for workrate nerds like me in Kay Lee Ray/Alba Fyre and Meiko Satomura, and that's before you get to revised looks for people on the main roster. They funnel a lot of those to the basic line, and it's another case where we often don't get a look before it changes or the wrestler leaves - we never got Kabuki Warriors Kairi, for instance. There's typically one woman a wave, I'd just rather see Legends-era women in Legends or other throwback lines like Ruthless Aggression.

Definitely would love a couple variations of both Jacqueline and Ivory.
Even a basic two pack would work since they wrestled each other often.
