It's a shame that we didn't get a lot more Series from the Lucha Libre Masked Warriors line that came out quite a few years ago. Those were pretty cool at the time for what they were. The line ended before they really began. I thought they could be on to something special back then, but at least we are getting something that looks good from Boss Fight Studios, etc. I think Lucha wrestlers have been under represented in figure form in general. You think Mexico would have come out with some kind of decent Lucha Libre/CMLL figures at some point the last few years. How did you guys feel about that line?

I won an autographed MOC set from RSC. I still have the boxes. They're kinda men figures but I liked having a Charly Manson...err...Malice figure.

I still have the Marco and Sydistiko figures. Sydistiko even got a bit of a push in my figure fed.
I would have liked to have seen more waves of this series.
But what is interesting about this line, is it seems they were here one day, and then simply gone the next.
I seemed like Walmart could never really sell them. One day they were there. The next day they weren't.
It also really baffles that these did not end up at BigLots and places like that.
As said, they just kinda vanished. After they had been out for a few years, I had to buy them off of Kmart.com to get a few of them.

I only remember seeing them at Toys R Us. Another couple of waves would have been awesome.

I saw them at K-Mart. I think the problem was they were a line that was tied to a TV show that most people didn't know existed and the popularity of wrestling in 2010 wasn't exactly booming. Not that it is now, mind you---we all thought 2010 was as bad as it was gonna get---but releasing a line of lucha figures based on a show on MTV2 that had very little promotion (the only reason I knew it was on is because I was almost exclusively watching lucha at the time) was very ballsy and it's not surprising why it lasted only one series.
