The legendary Ric Flair has finally been announced as a Mattel WWE wrestling action figure! The Nature Boy has been noticeably absent from the Mattel WWE line up to this point due to inactivity with the company. That has all changed seemingly over night as Flair, who returned to the WWE what seemed like ages ago, has finally been secured by Mattel with a contract and his first Mattel WWE figure has been revealed! The Defining Moments line, previously ended at Series 5, will make an exception for Ric Flair with a surprise exclusive featuring Flair at his absolute best in Defining Moments packaging.

This version of Flair includes his first ever headsculpt developed by Mattel and after years and years of speculation, fans have not been disappointed as to what he looks like. The limousine ridin’, jet flyin’ handsome Flair has his long, flowing locks and a fight ready expression.

With blue ring attire with his initials sketched into the trunks and on the back of those tall, blue and white laced boots, Flair is one of the all time greats and is finally represented perfectly in a Mattel WWE wrestling action figure. You can almost picture this figure doing the nature walk all by itself.

The Nature Boy wouldn’t be the Nature Boy without a wildly elaborate, detailed entrance robe and Mattel has gone above and beyond to give Flair that in this special wrestling figure treatment. With white trim and a black and white pattern, this robe fits the Nature Boy like a million dollar glove and defines him perfectly. Also included is the World Heavyweight Championship, marking just one of the important titles Flair has held in his career as a 16 time world champion.

Hopefully this is the first of many Ric Flair action figures to come, but if it isn’t, it truly defines just how incredible of a talent and just how unique of a wrestler the Nature Boy is. Mattel has gone above and beyond for the release of the first Ric Flair and taken wrestling figure fans by complete surprise. They wont want to miss their chance to own this exclusive, one of a kind Mattel WWE wrestling figure of one of the most legendary wrestlers of all time.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 Now Available For Pre-Order!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 wrestling action figures!
Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 wrestling action figures!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 wrestling action figures!

The Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 set features some of the hottest tag teams and rivalries in the WWE today! With newcomers, close siblings and deep rooted grudge matches, the variety is clear this time around. Mattel WWE Battle Packs 29 includes:

  • Los Matadores
  • Cody Rhodes & Goldust (The Rhodes Brothers)
  • CM Punk vs. Ryback

Since debuting in the WWE, Los Matadores have brought a stark contrast to the seriousness of the tag team division’s mainstays like The Shield and the Wyatt Family. With wildly exaggerated movesets and eccentric bull fighter outfits, they have become fan favorites among the WWE’s younger generation of fans. With their bull El Torito accompanying them to the ring, their matches have proved entertaining. The Mattel WWE Los Matadores figures will likely feature their pink face masks and current outfits. El Torito is also rumored to be released in an upcoming Mattel WWE Series set, so fans who love Los Matadores will be able to re-create their unique brand of silly action.

Cody Rhodes and Goldust enjoyed a renaissance as they teamed together and captured the WWE Tag Team Championships. Brothers who have long wanted to work together but have been unable to, Cody Rhodes and Goldust took advantage of the opportunity they were given and had a successful run. However, they have since lost their championship glory and Cody has grown increasingly frustrated with his brother. While they haven’t quite moved on from each other, the outlook doesn’t look great. Maybe if they saw their triumphant team-up immortalized in Mattel WWE wrestling figure form they would be more apt to work out their differences.

CM Punk has not been seen nor heard from in the WWE since the 2014 Royal Rumble. Ryback, who once feuded heavily with CM Punk, has moved on to specialize in tag team wrestling with Curtis Axel, but at one point these two monstrous WWE Superstar personalities were at each others throats. Both former ‘Paul Heyman guys,’ this Mattel WWE Battle Pack will likely commemorate their short feud over the services of a manager they both thought they could trust. Though neither ended up benefiting from Paul Heyman in the end, they managed to do their best to outperform each other and it may have been one of CM Punk’s last great endeavors in the WWE.

Is the Emmalution Coming to Mattel WWE Wrestling Figures?

A Mattel WWE Diva Emma!

The Emmalution strikes our hearts with WWE’s Emma!

Since debuting as a superfan watching WWE live events and producing quality matches during her time on the NXT roster, many fans have fallen in love with the quirkiness of Emma, one of the newest WWE Divas. With a striking entrance theme, striking beauty and a sense of something being just a little ‘off,’ Emma has slowly but surely made her way into the Divas division and has quickly become a contender for the Diva’s Championship. Soon to follow is a likely Mattel WWE Emma wrestling figure, but which aspect of her off the wall personality it will embody most remains to be seen.

A Mattel WWE NXT style Emma!

Emma made a name for herself on the NXT scene by ‘dancing’ to the ring, her hands in the air with sharp, pointed fingers. While in NXT she gained many notable victories and feuded with the likes of Paige and Summer Rae all while showing the WWE Universe what she’s really like. Her outfits showed off an athletic style that proved despite her odd demeanor, she was ready to compete at any time. A blue outfit like the one shown above would be perfectly representative of her time in NXT, but Mattel tends to stick to WWE attires once a talent has moved to the main roster, so it may not be possible.

A Mattel WWE Emma & Santino Marella Battle Pack!

The Mattel WWE Battle Packs are a great way to show off not just WWE Superstar feuds, but successful team ups, and there haven’t been many team ups as successful as Santino Marella and Emma since they found each other. Friendship bordering on infatuation is the only way their relationship can be described and a Mattel WWE Battle Pack featuring Santino and Emma would be a perfect way to bring Emma into the Mattel WWE line with an established WWE Superstar.

A Mattel WWE Diva Emma!

Since debuting in the WWE as an active WWE Diva, Emma’s outfits have gotten a bit more colorful and her attitude a little wilder. The most likely Mattel WWE Emma would feature a look she has sported since her main roster debut. Whether it be her orange outfit or the multicolored style pictured above, wrestling figure fans can expect a style that will make it easy for them to re-enact her somewhat…strange behavior! The Emmalution is coming sooner rather than later and Mattel will no doubt add to their WWE Diva triumphs.

Mattel WWE Series 41 Now Available For Pre-Order!

The Mattel WWE Series 41 wrestling action figures!

The Mattel WWE Series 41 wrestling action figures!

The newly announced Mattel WWE Series 41 will feature some of the most powerful, intense and silly WWE Superstars that the WWE has to offer! The set is now up for pre-order and includes:

  • Santino Marella
  • Bray Wyatt
  • Daniel Bryan
  • Drew McIntyre
  • Antonio Cesaro
  • Fandango

Santino Marella receives his first Mattel WWE figure treatment since the pique of the “Cobra era” and he still carries the old, trusty snake around. This figure could possible feature that Cobra built in once again, but chances are we could be seeing a standard Santino this time around.

The whole world is in the hands of Bray Wyatt, who just recently enjoyed the release of his first ever Mattel WWE figure. This time around we can likely see a more colorful shirt or a different type of ring pants from the frightening Wyatt Family leader. Hopefully his Mattel WWE action figure won’t hypnotize the young owners who enjoy playing with it!

Antonio Cesaro has cemented his place as one of the strongest members of the WWE roster after winning the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal and swinging some of the biggest WWE Superstars like rag dolls. He has proven to be a literal super man, and will more than likely receive a new headsculpt treatment after his previous Mattel WWE Series figure left fans with a bit to be desired in that respect.

Fandango has danced his way into our hearts and souls providing arrogant comic relief amongst his wrestling talent. His latest Mattel WWE figure could feature a different style of facial hair and with so many colorful attire choices, it wouldn’t be surprising to see the most colorful Fandango yet, and that’s saying a lot.

Drew McIntyre has let his intensity hang loose to take a much more laid back approach to the WWE as a member of the 3 Man Band. 3MB finds McIntyre wearing leather pants, head bands and rocking out with the other members. This will be the first Drew McIntyre Mattel WWE wrestling figure in quite a while, so fans will more than likely be excited to expand their roster with him if they didn’t get the chance when he was a bit more…serious.

The leader of the Yes! Movement, Daniel Bryan has followed his dreams and made them all come true. He shows up in Mattel WWE Series 41 and will hopefully have a new headsculpt and an excited demeanor. His outfit will likely show off his style as WWE World Heavyweight Champion or even throw back to the challenges he faced while chasing that championship glory. Either way, the WWE Universe will be able to get behind their current leader.

Paige Takes the WWE and Our Hearts By Storm!

WWE Diva Paige, now the rightful owner of the WWE Diva’s Championship!

Since bursting on to the WWE NXT scene, many wrestling fans have been singing the praises of Paige, a wild, unpredictable and sometimes even a little out there WWE Diva. With a whooping howl and wrestling ability to boot, fans of the Diva during her NXT run anxiously awaited news of her being called up to the main WWE talent roster. Their wish was soon granted as Paige has recently jumped on to the WWE scene, attacked the Divas division and stood triumphant in a matter of weeks. A Mattel WWE Paige figure should in turn not be far behind.

Paige’s wild outfits directly reflect her wild personality, like this one showing off a look she sported during her time in NXT. With different color schemes, textures and even a leather jacket, it will be exciting to see what approach Mattel decides to take for a Mattel WWE Paige figure. Despite Mattel claiming several times that they were choosing not to produce NXT figures, Paige could be the first possible test of that with her unique looks.

Paige is also the inaugural NXT Diva’s Champion, so the case could be made for a Mattel WWE Paige figure to come with the NXT Women’s Championship as an accessory. It would celebrate her time in the promotion, give an already classic look to a fresh Diva and make belt collectors happy.

Of course, the more likely attire choice would be the outfit that Paige debuted in, won the WWE Diva’s Championship from AJ Lee in and continues to wear during her successful reign. With a purple top and shorts and some wild looking crossovers and studs, Paige sets hearts on fire as she displays tenacity and aggression with her headlocks and noises.

Mattel has hopefully begun preliminary work on a Mattel WWE Paige figure and we could be seeing her sooner rather than later.
