El Generico would rule. Last night, unless I’m looking too much into it, Pat Mcaffee made a comment about Zayne versus Gsble saying “this guy is far from Generic”. I perked up. Fun fact from some of my friends in Japan. When Sami did the fake-out tope flip, the Japanese commentary team specifically referenced Generico by name. ETA: Also, literally Wrestlemania. The entire point of the ending of the Gunther match was that "Sami" couldn't beat Gunther, so he had to call upon Generico to do it for him. At least, that's how I, and several other people who are huge fans of both him and Generico, read what happened. That channeling Generico was a straight up hail mary thing and that's how he won. |

I believe all that was said was that it was based on one of his many appearances during 1989. I'm partial to his Starrcade look myself but,really, it's all good whichever look they start off with. Yup. I’m just happy we’re getting one, it almost feels unreal. There’s so great (no pun intended) looks we need. It would be awesome to get Jushin Liger under a contract at some point too. This would fill in the gap under my WCW cruiser weight division. I'm not sure if you are aware, but Storm Collectibles did a few different versions of Jushin Liger a couple years ago (I own is black/gold & debut attire versions). They are awesome & scale ok with WWE/AEW figures. They are a little too wide/muscular, but they are awesome! Hopefully Mattel can get him signed at some point. They would do great, especially an Ultimate Edition. |

I contemplated on buying the og release, but felt like it was a bit too out of scale for my elites. I would love to see one by Mattel at one point though. |

I hope they do all the different colors/gear they can for Muta. An Elite/UE nWo Muta would be ridiculously awesome for the MNW line.
Hell, I'd take 2000 WCW too
A Mania BAF or a Legends figure from the Hall of Fame last year just to get modern Muta heads
Put it with a HOF plaque and that clear podium from Legends Bruno. A simple, classy tuxedo figure.

Slaughter, so no good there as far as compatibility but, great looking figures nonetheless! |

The Muta reveal was the best thing about last weekend's showing. I'll probably get whatever gets released. He also has a Bandai figure coming out so great time if you're a fan. And since he was inducted last year and got a figure a year later, I'm hoping for the same trajectory for Bull Nakano. I don't buy too many female wrestlers, but I would love a Bull Nakano! She has one of the all-time greatest looks of any wrestler ever. As a kid I believed she could compete with the men. |

I love it more after seeing Bill is gonna do a red and black attire. I'm hoping this can lead Mattel into making an Ultimo Dragon figure.
I can also see custom artists using Muta's lower molds to make Steve Balckman figures.

Not yet. They probably won't be out until March/Aprilish so I'd expect preorders at the very end of the year or early next year |

I forget..does this have any soft goods accessory? yes, a red gi for the standard and a black gi for the chase if im not mistaken Edit: scratch that, when they showed the prototype off at comic con they showed a black gi with red detailing. Its still possible the chase will be different, but I'd assume they'll be the same |
