Yes but do you know how many civil rights groups and parents organizations would jump in WWE for releasing a figure with "Negro" printed on it? Racist or not, people are extremely close minded and would boycott WWE and Mattel for it.

I just said screw it and grabbed a Punk and Hunico. I'm going to regret it if Cody ends up being in white that I didn't just buy the whole set, but whatever. I'm excited for those two figures anyway.

Negro is the spanish term for the color black, I don't see how that is at all offensive. If his name was "Sin Cara Muh *****" I could.

Does anyone have experience ordering these new, flimsier-packaged (series 13 on) basic series from RSC? Do they usually ship them pretty safely and are the packages in okay condition?
I really like this set and I'm about the drop ample money on a preorder, but I don't want the figs' packaging to arrive destroyed (like what I went through with Mattel shop).

Series 18 sounds pretty cool - a new Kelly Kelly, a new Punk, Sin Cara and Sin Cara Negro... all good! Hopefully, Cena will be in his new camo-shorts get-up too.
Not so keen on the Battlepacks Series 16... I'll probably just get the Otunga and McGillicutty one.

sin cara negro? that ended in what? august last year? why even bother at this point? no one even remembers him hardly....o well, should be a cool figure either way
so glad to finally see a new Basic Punk. Hopefully they fix his overall look because his previous Basics just need something more to put them over the top.
definitley like that we're getting an Otungacutty set.

Glad there's a new Cody Rhodes, but I wish it was Elite instead. :/

Who's Sin Cara Negra? I thought there were only two Sin Caras with no suffix in their name?

Sin Cara Negro is the Lacey Von Erich of WWE in that he got the role as part of a 'plan B' after the original (in Lacey's case Angelina Love) was unable to perform for whatever reason, stayed around upon the originals return and is part of a stable that are all clones of each other. I'm surprised WWE never gave Lacey Von Erich a job.

Lol @ Punk being the second lowest price.
Come on RSC, take advantage of the demand and jack up the price.

Damn Kelly is backordered already.
I find it ridiculous that RSC is comfortable selling diva figures at three or four times retail price (and sell out every time) but still won't pick up an exclusive because of that Stacy/Trish/Torrie set from the early 2000's.
