Probably a new hillbilly Jim has to be on this list somewhere.

I would love a red tights repaint, easily one of the best FB figures.

This is too bad, I really wanted a proper snuka. Hopefully he is in hof 3 and is to far along to cancel. As an 80s only collector a snuka figure will be a big hole in my collection.
I would like to see how the wwe responds to this, they erase hogan for using a horrible word, what happens to a convicted murderer IF he is found guilty?

We need an Andre sporting his Rock and Wrestling cartoon attire. As a matter of fact, we need an entire Rock and Wrestling cartoon inspired line. It could be a Matty Collector exclusive. This would be amazing !

The reason they haven't made a John stud figure, is because he's not that memorable. Yeah, to hardcore collectors and people that make it a point to research every forgotten wrestler. But he would warm just as bad as junkyard. Also, IRS is still just speculation. People saw 1 wrong leaked line up and have just ran with it. The reason they haven't made him isn't because he isn't memorable, he main evented wirh hogan in the mid 80s a few times. Had a feud with Andre for years and was a top 5 heel in the mid 80s. It's a generational thing, JYD was huge in the 80s also. The majority of the collectors seem to be into the 90s and early 2000s so that's what Mattel makes because it sells. Old guys like me seem to be in the minority In the collecting community. That's why when I look at top 10 polls I have to google some of the names because I have no idea who the hell any of them are.

To each their own, I grew up in the era and loved big john studd and bundy as a tag team. I honestly never understood the warrior love, he changed his attire constantly but his matches still sucked and his gimmick was even more tiresome than hogan's. Oh I agree with you whole heartedly about Warrior. Recently watch SS 90 main event. Its 11 minutes of Rick Rude selling horrible clotheslines Any warrior match longer than 90 seconds becomes very painful to watch. However, he makes for some great action figures.

I never understood the Big John Studd fascination. I grew up in his era and I love heels but he was boring as ![](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/wfcensored.gif) and never changed his attire. Not true at all...he went from red stars on his tights to blue!! Don't forget the red and black robe to red and white!

My preference would for them to bring out Legends never released before (ie. Big John Studd or Hercules Hernandez) but I understand Mattel needs to gain 'rights' to do so. But what I don't like is when they re-release the same Legend again later down the road in another series, just cuz that character sells well. They have the rights to Studd they just aren't making a figure of him Studd has to be a lock to be in a HOF series within the next few waves. He is one of the bigger 80s wrestlers not yet released. I remember reading on the boards a while ago that beefcake doesn't have a wwf deal. Does anyone know why? I'm surprised we haven't gotten a Brutus figure yet if he is in fact signed.

Yes absolutely, I only collect older wrestlers so it's a no brainer. As a Canadian I'm hoping that mattycollector comes back with the legends line. The h.o.f target line is costing me a fortune buying from eBay so I'm all for a Matty return.

JYD is a great figure. I would have preferred red tights but this is easily one of the best flashbacks that have been released. I also would have preferred a honky tonk man in blue tights, but the figure is still great. I'm not a fan of the 2 in 1 Andre. They should have just released the new battle pack head on the elite body or just made a young Afro Andre. I think the whole figure was a bad idea
