Can't wait to buy Bobby Heenan and Jimmy Hart figures, just a little worried if they are Toysrus exclusives.

Years ago this was noted from a Q/A:
"WWE only told Mattel not to make one former name for the legends series. Mattel said that the name came as a surprise to them. They didnt release the name."
Any chance Bill can give us that name since its been like 5 years? My guess was it was Razor but I could be wrong. Previous speculation included Nailz but that sounds kinda obvious that WWE wouldn't want a figure of him out.

I hope the rumored IRS will be shown. Maybe IRS and m$m will both be shown. Maybe they could be surprise special guests. Or maybe mick foley could be surprise special guest to reveal the Santa foley and dude love.

Maybe Mountie or Neidhart?

Lol. I agree, but Dean malenko shouldn't be expected to do much better on those pegs true BUT Malenko had a pretty extensive career with some title wins and was a recognizable name in WCW during the hottest time in wrestling. And we haven't seen the final product of Malenko yet, maybe he will come with a cool accessory besides the vest. Dino Bravo was pretty much a lower mid-card/almost-jobber. Point is, I can see Mattel's reasoning for making a Malenko, could never justify making Dino Bravo I am going to have to disagree. Dino Bravo had a pretty good run from 1987-1991 in WWF. He main evented a couple of SNME with earthquake against Hogan and Tugboat. He was a featured member of Hogan's matches at Survivor Series and SummerSlam in 1990. He was Ultimate warriors main opponent during his 2nd IC title run in 1990, which included the segment on superstars where Earthquake was introduced in the crowd. He also played a part in turning Beefcake face at WM3, and had the big segment at the first royal rumble. He certainly cant be considered the least relevant name that mattel has done, especially with a kevin von erich figure in my collection. And it would be his 1st ever figure, which should make his figure a little more appealing. I for one would look forward to it.

I'd buy Dino and be pretty excited about it. Would look sick next to Quake and the Jimmy Hart that I hope we see at SDCC:)

Idk about Dino Bravo, he was definitely a player back in '89, wouldn't have a problem with him as a basic, as an elite he wouldn't need much deco, but how many people would be willing to pay $20 for him? Maybe a boxed set with Quake and Rougeaus, or Jimmy Hart Battle pack, or idk, anything more than a basic sounds like a joke that would hardly sell(to me). I was watching Wrestling With Shadows the other day and Bret had a funny story about wrestling him. Even though his sternum was broken, he still wouldn't lose to him(it's still real to him dammit, lol).

alquelude I was right there with you until you said Kevin Von Erich wasn't a relevant name :-(
torriefan4life, my all-time hottest wrestling diva varies between Trish and Torrie largely depending on who I see most recently. Yowza. Did you hear her podcast with Jim Ross?
