Now that Lanny has passed away, would anyone want to see a Genius figure in the Legends line? Mattel has made so many Randy Savage figures (deservedly so) but not one figure of his brother. Jakks did a great job with their Lanny Poffo figure. Hopefully he gets a figure at some point soon. I think Mattel would do a great job. Not sure if Powertown has anything to do with a potential Mattel figure made, if the Poffos are signed with Powertown?

I would love one. It would be a perfect chase figure with the color of robe and cap. Red, light blue, orange, green would all look good. A half shaved head version would be fun too.

Not because he passed away. His passing doesn’t make me want one any more than I did when he was alive.

Leaping Lanny was a bit before my time, but I've wanted a Genius figure for a while. Definitely needs to come with a cloth robe, mortar board hat, and the scroll thing he carried. I would prefer his light blue robe, goes great with his normal gear. They could also do an extra head, one with the wig he wore after Brutus Beefcake cut his hair at WM6. Or this one: Since his attire didn't change (tights, kneepads and boots) during his Genius run, maybe they could include another robe.

I’d want the light blue robe and must have the hat and scroll

Need one to go with Mr. Perfect, the board we're he'd read his poems before saying the Genius presents whomever he managed. Cap and gown. Would be nice to get a chase of a different color robe but I'd be satisfied with just 1 and then in a futre wave a Leaping Lanny with frisbees.

I wouldn't mind a Genius, but since he'd likely only be getting one figure I would want it to come with the frisbee as well.

No on leaping lanny. That would be a big time peg warmer but the Genius was a big part of golden era. Snme against Hogan and a big part of Perfects rise to the top.

They could easily do a Leaping/Genius 2-in-1. 2 heads, frisbee, and robe with a chase attire underneath.

The Genius, full of glory and renown!
Would love one. Speaking of Lanny, here’s his best poem:

Kind of surprised he doesn’t have a deal tied in with Macho man somehow.

If he was the figure with the chase, the regular figure could be The Genius look: Robe, Hat, Scroll, Mic, and his normal blue and white attire underneath. The figure could also come with a frisbee and an extra head that looks like Leaping Lanny. The chase figure would come with everything mentioned, except, underneath the robe would be one of his Leaping Lanny attires.

The Jakks one is fine for me if he doesn't get one from Mattel. But for the completest I hope Mattel can get it done for you.

I would much rather have a Leaping Lanny fig with frisbee and suit of armor.
