The initial wave has hit most of the US at this point, but some stores are restocking Wave 1 so make sure to call ahead instead of just relying on the DCPI. Where to get it? The Hall of Fame line is exclusive to Target, so they’re your best bet. This changed at WrestleMania 2000, where Eddie challenged Chyna’s on-screen. As the Mattel Flashbacks become incredibly high priced on the secondary market, if you’re on the fence, you’re better off getting it now so you don’t end up paying triple the cost later on. Guerrero and Chyna’s romance didn’t start off the way Eddie wanted, with Chyna repeatedly rejecting him. I’ve got a feeling this is going to be a sleeper figure that people are going to wish they picked up when more 2000 Attitude Era figures are announced. Dean Malenko is coming in Elite 37 and we’ve gotta hope a 2000-era Y2J will be revealed at SDCC. The only catch right now, though, is that most of Eddie’s opponents from that time period (Y2J, Kurt Angle, Perry Saturn, The Hardy Boyz, II Cool and Val Venis) are still awaiting figures so you won’t be able to reenact the majority of his feuds from that era. Worth it? This is a very well done figure featuring one of the WWF’s all-time greats. That said, I wonder if exchanging the roses for a European title wouldn’t have been a better option?
#EDDIE GUERRERO CHYNA SERIES#
Sure, you can track down a Jakks Chyna figure online (here’s the one I used: Jakks Pacific WWF WrestleMania XVII Chyna Figure Series 9 ), but it doesn’t hold up very well with Mattel’s offerings. The slight sticking point with their inclusion is you know there’s a negative-one-hundred-percent chance Mattel will be able to deliver Eddie’s Mamacita Chyna any time soon. As far as I remember, this is the first time the roses have been included in the line.

In addition to the shirt, Eddie comes with a bundle of roses and a single long stem rose. I’d still like a softer plastic to make putting and taking off the shirt easier especially for guys like Eddie with long hair. It’s still not perfect, but it is a welcome step in the right direction. You won’t have any problem doing the frog splash or any other of Eddie’s trademark moves.Īccessories: While I continue to despise the plastic shirts as they give a lifejacket appearance more than a t-shirt look, this fits better than most thanks to the lack of sleeves. To be fair, while playing posing him, I kinda appreciated the chest being a bit looser, especially when doing the frog splash.
