I hope not, I'd question Mattel's ethics if they made a near death Warrior figure, plus I don't think his family would approve or especially the man himself. If a special, wildly designed, fantasy Warrior was the mailaway figure at the end of the year, I think that could be tasteful(even though I'd rather see Dude Love(or debut Mankind ffs)).

No. That would look too much like they're capitalizing on his untimely death.

Would prefer the attire from 2k14 Yeah, I wish they made a special Warrior to go along with the release of the game. Such a great looking coat. In the future, I hope they tap into Warrior's '96 / '98 gear.

Let's hope they stay away from making that figure.

i really dont see what the big deal is, its not his death attire for crying out loud, its his return to raw after 18 years, it would be a tribute to him, if its so unethical why dont we have a problem with wwe showing the footage of that night, basically the same thing, i dont see why its so wrong to make someone in attire they wore before they died?? so u guys can honestly say you would never want a blue blazer outfit? because he died wearing that outfit, but i dont think anyone would make a big deal if Mattel Made a Blue Blazer...The whole point of wrestling figures is to capture wrestling Iconic Moments, and sorry to say but Him Being on Raw After 18 years is an Iconic moment....I do agree his 2k14 Attire would be better, but there is absolutley nothing wrong if they made his Last Raw Attire

Let it go. It's not happening, MDT said it themselves. "Any true Warrior fan..."

I agree with the post above, there's nothing morbid or unethical about making a modern Warrior. Just because he looked like that at his passing doesn't mean a thing. That's like saying you wouldn't buy a Bruiser Brody because he looked like that when he was stabbed to death

I wouldn't buy a Blue Blazer figure. And no I wouldn't buy a Warrior from last Monday's RAW. Although even if they weren't dead and Mattel made them I would pass on them both. But as it is now it would be distasteful to make either.

In the future, I hope they tap into Warrior's '96 / '98 gear.Word. This is where I'd like to see them turn their attention as well. I definitely still want older attires, come on SS90 and RR91, but getting him in a WCW look would just be amazing imo. I don't care what anyone says about the match, his Halloween Havoc attire was arguably his best look ever. His WCW debut was a massive moment too, one of my favorite segments of all time, and I would love to see that represented some how. I'd take anything from 96 & 98 that Mattel is willing to make.

Not because it was his last gear because it is his return to raw. I would like a WWE 2k14 one better

wcw debut epic moment... well it was in the first 5-10 mins, and i admit was cool, but just the sheer crap that they did with him after that takes so much electricity away from that night... the electricity that occured at ROYAL RUMBLE 1990 when Hogan & Warrior first noticed they were alone in the ring, first Memorable time in WWE that two babyfaces had a physical confrontation of epic proportions.. for those of us who were old enough to remember that moment from sitting on the family couch , it was pure insanity and made you choose a Super-Hero... i could keep goin for hours regarding the snme moments and sat & sun tv promos leading to the WRESTLEMANIA 6 showdown @ SkyDome But i hope MATTEL does whats RIGHT and pumps out many many more ULTIMATE WARRIOR figures, i believe they will ( ALWAYS BELIEVE ) But not more of his pre late 90 gear with the more plain attire.. we got WM4,WM5,the wm6 promo pink & green attire.. i loved once he began wearing customized ( airbrushed ) wristbands instead of cotton bands, along with logos on trunks or even airbrushed caricurtures (sp!) recall WM 7 MEANS MORE THAN THIS shot at hulk having the belt!!! i hope the next two WARRIOR figures are ROYAL RUMBLE 1991 USA themed colored logos & purple strap winged eagle, then the small logo no face paint face with black trunks multi- color logos with blue strap winged eagle... i can understand if we dont get the special color straps BUT that was a warrior trademark and he was the first WWE SuperStar to ever do that ( 1st with IC )... hbk did later using white strap on his ic back & forth with black... side thought i really would love to see the winged eagle brought back, just swap the logo on top add nameplate.. this belt is simply a company logo with " personalized sideplates" simply the guys' gimmicked logo i missing a belt saying WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT WRESTLING CHAMPION agree?..disagree?

With the Rock exclusive coming up, i think mattel has opened the doors for more custom belts. I hope we will see warriors with: Yellow IC belt White Winged eagle belt Blue Winged eagle belt Purple Winged eagle belt
I would love to add all of these belts to my collection.
