The Future Possibility Of a Mattel WWE Kurt Angle Figure

Mattel WWE Eurocontinental Champion Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure!

Kurt Angle is an absolute wrestling legend that no wrestling fan on the planet disputes in any way. After putting on five star matches in both WWE and TNA, as time moves on and injuries pile up, Kurt Angle is closer to retirement than ever before and wrestling fans will no doubt be sad to see the Olympic gold medalist’s career come to an end. But his involvement in the wrestling business will most likely never end as one of the best big mouths in the history of wrestling will always have a place and presence. Kurt Angle has made it clear he feels he will one day wrestle for the WWE once again and the WWE Universe would welcome him with open arms. Mattel WWE wrestling figure fans would be even more excited at the possibility of versions of Kurt Angle wrestling figures from throughout his career.

Mattel WWE Eurocontinental Champion Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure!

Mattel WWE Eurocontinental Champion Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure!

Perhaps Kurt Angle’s most popular and well known phase ever came during the WWE ‘Attitude Era’ when he held both the WWE Intercontinental and WWE European championships at once, deeming himself the ‘Eurocontinental Champion.’ Constantly at odds with the WWE Universe, the rest of the locker room and the WWE Champion at the time, Kurt would make it clear that he would stop at nothing to wear all the WWE Championships he could, and they meant as much to him as his Olympic gold medals did. A Mattel WWE figure of this version of Kurt Angle should be most likely a certainty.

Mattel WWE Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure With Wig!

Mattel WWE Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure With Wig!

Many fans know Kurt Angle for his wrestling ability but many more know him for his comedic, entertaining wrestling chops. When he lost a Hair vs. Hair match to Edge, Kurt Angle refused to let the WWE Universe in on his new haircut. Because of this, he wore an obvious wig underneath wrestling headgear to the ring each week, assuming the WWE Universe would be none the wiser. His attires at the time were beginning to become more colorful, so a Mattel WWE figure including those attires and a removable wig and wrestling headgear accessory may provide exactly the type of unique feature that Mattel WWE wrestling figure fans are used to.

Undisputed and World Heavyweight Champion Mattel WWE Kurt Angle!

Undisputed and World Heavyweight Champion Mattel WWE Kurt Angle!

Kurt Angle transitioned more into a power wrestling role during his final WWE appearance, capturing World Heavyweight Championship and even Undisputed WWE Championship gold. His American themed singlets and growing physique would prove for a strong, focused Kurt Angle that would seen become one of the faces of the ECW brand before his WWE departure. Many WWE fans remember this unstoppable version of Kurt Angle for bringing an intensity to wrestling that was beginning to be otherwise overlooked.

Modern Day Mattel WWE Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure!

Modern Day Mattel WWE Kurt Angle Wrestling Figure!

As Kurt Angle hasn’t made a WWE appearance in almost 10 years, his TNA career can be the only thing by which WWE fans can judge and guess what a Mattel WWE figure would look like. Kurt hasn’t missed a beat since leaving the WWE, putting on stellar matches in TNA and continuing to showcase red, white and blue themed outfits that offer a variety for Angle’s personality. A modern day Mattel WWE Kurt Angle wrestling figure would depend on if Angle does in fact participate in a match upon returning to the WWE. He is a future WWE Hall of Famer, no doubt, but having one more match in the WWE remains an unanswered question that will be answered sooner rather than later.

The Wyatt Family…a Thorn in the Side of John Cena!

Mattel WWE Series 39 Bray Wyatt!

Since debuting in the WWE, the Wyatt Family have shown their strength, power, and the tightness of their group. A family like no other, they made an initial impact by taking out WWE Superstars like Kane, Kofi Kingston and The Miz. They may have been bested by Daniel Bryan but to keep the statistics in their favor they have gone after arguably the greatest possible challenge the WWE has to offer. That challenge goes by the name of John Cena.

Mattel WWE Series 39 John Cena!

Mattel WWE Series 39 John Cena!

John Cena, here in Mattel WWE Series 39, has spent his time trying to have an effect on the travesty that is Randy Orton gaining the WWE World Heavyweight Championship through cheating, but recently the Wyatt Family have forced him to realign his sights and take them on because of numerous sneak attacks. Cena is unclear as to why Bray Wyatt has chosen him as a target and it has made his main objectives difficult. John Cena can no longer look at Bray Wyatt as simply a nuisance and must treat him with the respect of a face to face challenger.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Luke Harper and Erick Rowan!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Luke Harper and Erick Rowan!

Helping Bray Wyatt act out his sneaky ways are the other members of the Wyatt Family, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan. Luke Harper and Erick Rowan will receive their first Mattel WWE wrestling figures in Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28. They are a fixture in the tag team division, have shown that they can suffer defeat and bounce back infinitely stronger and best of all for Bray Wyatt, both men will do his bidding at the drop of a hat. Harper and Rowan are invaluable parts of Bray Wyatt’s strategy and are no doubt highly sought after for Mattel WWE wrestling figure fans.

Mattel WWE Series 39 Bray Wyatt!

Mattel WWE Series 39 Bray Wyatt!

The Mattel WWE Series 39 Bray Wyatt action figure will be the first time the leader of the Wyatt family has seen himself in wrestling figure form. A miniature plastic idol is perfect for the leader of this cult-like family as they slowly but surely do their best to take over the WWE. Bray Wyatt’s headsculpt, accurate tattoos, white pants and black and white wrestling shows prove him to be the type of leader that is simple but effective in his actions all the way down to how he dresses. Wrestling figure fans will no doubt look to re-enact the Sister Abigail on unsuspecting opponents, knocking them out and planting a kiss of certain doom on their foreheads.

The Wyatt Family will finally be released as Mattel WWE figures, and most wrestling figure fans will no doubt have a John Cena figure available to fight off the oncoming attacks of the Mattel WWE wrestling figure world’s newest and most formidable foes, Bray Wyatt, Erick Rowan and Luke Harper.

Randy Orton Has A Target On His Back…Will He Survive??

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 27 Randy Orton vs. Daniel Bryan!

Due the current wrestling landscape, an often overlooked conversation is the survival of the WWE World Heavyweight Champion as he tries to avoid a loss to any oncoming challengers. The idea is overlooked even more with Randy Orton, who fans and members of the locker room alike feel cheated his way to a title reign because of a partnership with Triple H and the rest of the WWE corporate body. While many potential contenders including the Elimination Chamber participants and anyone else looking to get a shot at the gold and their struggles are often discussed by the WWE Universe, the struggle for Randy Orton to fend them off is an even greater one.

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Randy Orton vs. Daniel Bryan!

Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28 Randy Orton vs. Daniel Bryan!

Perhaps what began all the modern day struggles for The Viper was his Money in the Bank briefcase win at WWE Money In The Bank 2013. After making his way up the ladder with all of his opponents laid out, he grabbed his chance at the WWE Championship, used it on Daniel Bryan with the help of Triple H at Summerslam 2013 and didn’t look back until he was the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Now, the playing field is even smaller and those looking to dethrone him, especially Daniel Bryan who he took advantage of to begin with, are ready to make repeated attempts until it happens. Here, Randy Orton and Daniel Bryan call back to their Summerslam 2013 interaction in Mattel WWE Battle Packs 28.

Mattel WWE Elite 21 Randy Orton!

Mattel WWE Elite 21 Randy Orton!

Randy Orton’s ability and strength cannot be denied despite his cheating ways and the Mattel WWE figures that reflect that best come in the Elite style. In Mattel WWE Elite 21, Randy Orton sports an RKO t-shirt and superior articulation, offering his finishing move of the RKO out of nowhere and helping wrestling figure fans re-create his intensity working up to that move or his beautiful standing dropkicks.

Mattel WWE Series 37 Randy Orton!

Mattel WWE Series 37 Randy Orton!

Randy Orton has been a staple at WrestleMania since debuting in the WWE and perhaps his greatest personal challenge is a thirst for participating in the WWE’s main event. The WWE Universe has seen him suffer defeats and earn triumphs at WrestleMania, but with his current interactions and friendship with Triple H his participation at WrestleMania XXV comes to mind. In Mattel WWE Series 37, the WrestleMania Heritage series flashes back to a time when Randy Orton and Triple H were at odds with plenty of personal attacks. Randy Orton, as WWE World Heavyweight champion, can truly trust no one, not even the person aiding him in his attempts at glory.

Mattel WWE Super Strikers Randy Orton!

Mattel WWE Super Strikers Randy Orton!

The Mattel WWE Super Strikers Randy Orton shows the true darkness behind the eyes of the Apex Predator, with a face of anger, power and explosive frustration. When the wrestling figures legs are squeezed together, a double hook move can be performed but perhaps more telling about the release is the inclusion of a chair. Randy Orton will go to any lengths to get what he wants and this figure is the perfect example of that willingness to gain.

Eva Marie A Soon To Be Mattel WWE Wrestling Figure!

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling Figure in Total Divas Attire!

Love her or hate her, Eva Marie has the WWE Universe and those beyond talking after starring in the E! Television show ‘Total Divas.’ While some wrestling fans question her ability, virtually no one questions her striking looks or her red hair. On an episode of Total Divas, Eva Marie was scanned for a future Mattel WWE action figure by Mattel WWE designers, so the question of her release is not if, but when! Here are a few attires that many fans would see as perfect for a Mattel WWE Eva Marie wrestling figure.

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Figure In White Wrestling Attire!

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Figure In White Wrestling Attire!

Eva Marie’s most often seen wrestling attire is a white and black style that is inspired by wrestling singlets, complete with an opening for her two-piece outfit underneath to show through. Her tall black boots and silver and black arm bands set her up for a butt-kicking look. This is the outfit that Eva Marie will most likely appear in as she has appeared numerous times wearing it in a WWE and NXT ring!

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling Figure in Green Wrestling Attire!

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling Figure in Green Wrestling Attire!

Eva Marie’s green and gold wrestling attire is more in line with the style of other WWE Divas, showing off her mid-section and leaving plenty of room for her to be agile and attack. Here, she takes a selfie to show off her red hair, red lips and ability to look amazing despite good or bad wrestling ability.

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling FIgure in Red and Black Wrestling Attire!

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling FIgure in Red and Black Wrestling Attire!

 

Eva Marie has appeared numerous times with her ‘friends’ the Bella Twins, taking after their in ring style but no doubt making sure everyone and anyone knows she is an individual. Her red, hiked tights and polka dot top keep the eyes of the WWE Universe locked on her performance and separate her from Brie and Nikki Bella. This is the dark horse choice for a Mattel WWE Eva Marie wrestling figure as it appeared sparsely but was very memorable.

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling Figure in Total Divas Attire!

Mattel WWE Eva Marie Wrestling Figure in Total Divas Attire!

An unexpected choice but not an impossibility, Mattel could decide to release an Eva Marie action figure with a dress featured on her hit show Total Divas. This tight, striped dress is just one example of the many styles and wardrobe choices Eva Marie makes on Total Divas, and offering Mattel non-wrestling attires in case wrestling figure fans prefer to leave Eva Marie as a valet instead of an in-ring Superstar. Whatever choice Mattel decides to go with, the first Mattel WWE Eva Marie wrestling action figure will be a hot commodity in more ways than one.

Sheamus Makes His Way Back to the WWE! His Mattel WWE Figures Never Left!

Sheamus, one of the most popular modern day Superstars, gives a new meaning to the term ‘Fightin’ Irish.’ Hailing from Ireland and having a skin tone and fiery red hair like no other he has impacted the WWE Universe since debuting in 2009 and continues to Brogue Kick his way through any oncoming opponents. After a lengthy injury, he returned to the WWE at the 2014 Royal Rumble, surprising excited fans and reminding them he is in the WWE to stay. Sheamus also has a plethora of Mattel WWE figures available, representing his massive Irish persona at different stages during his career.

Mattel WWE Elite 25 Sheamus!

Mattel WWE Elite 25 Sheamus!

Sheamus’ latest Mattel WWE Elite figure is in Elite Series 25, complete with Celtic chain, t-shirt and silver color scheme. His smiling face shows just how much he loves to be a WWE Superstar and his extra articulation in the Elite style helps any fan looking to administer Brogue Kicks or Celtic Crosses to their unsuspecting WWE wrestling figures. This is one of Sheamus’ best Elite offerings and cannot be matched in detail with regards to representing the Celtic Warrior.

Mattel WWE Pay Per View 11 Sheamus!

Mattel WWE Pay Per View 11 Sheamus!

The figure that began the Sheamus craze, this was simultaneously released as one of Sheamus’ first Mattel WWE figures, identical to the only other release at a time when fans wanted Sheamus more than any other Superstar in Mattel WWE figure form. With a new head sculpt and skin tone matching that of the real thing, Sheamus may be easier to find in the current day and age but at one point his figure was a hot commodity, and this version of it is a perfect example of when fans couldn’t get enough.

Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Battle Packs Sheamus vs. Ultimate Warrior!

Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Battle Packs Sheamus vs. Ultimate Warrior!

Mattel took it upon themselves to offer Fantasy Match Ups for WrestleMania XXX, and came up with the idea of Sheamus facing off with the Ultimate Warrior. Getting a colorful version of Mr. Warrior is one exciting aspect, but getting a smiling, red and black geared Sheamus is another. Completely ready to face off with one of his all time heroes, Sheamus would certainly give Ultimate Warrior a run for his money as the two brawny, popular Superstars faced off.

Mattel WWE Series 38 Sheamus!

Mattel WWE Series 38 Sheamus!

The latest Mattel WWE Sheamus figure in Series 38 is in turn, possibly the most exciting as it has an accurate and on time depiction of how Sheamus looked at his Royal Rumble 2014 return. Wearing the gold and silver trunks, knee pads and wrist wraps, Sheamus is one of the lucky few to have a completely and fully accurate representation of himself upon re-appearing in the WWE. This was due to a timing coincidence by Mattel that fit perfectly with Sheamus’ unfortunate injury. If anything good were to be said about what came of Sheamus’ injury, it would be that his latest Mattel WWE figure is spot on in as many ways as possible.

OHHH YOU DIDN’T KNOW? Tag Team Champions The New Age Outlaws, Reuniting in Mattel WWE Form!

Mattel WWE New Age Outlaws Package Deal!

Just in time for Valentine’s Day as people across the world think of the greatest pairings ever, many WWE Universe members are struck by the partnership of the New Age Outlaws, Road Dogg Jesse James and ‘Bad Ass’ Billy Gunn. After re-capturing the WWE Tag Team Championships following a 15 year absence, the duo, who may or may not be at the beck and call of COO Triple H, are taking the locker room by storm. Aside from a brief appearance on RAW’s 20th Anniversary and a quick entry into the 2013 Royal Rumble by Road Dogg, the New Age Outlaws have been mostly inactive in the ring since disbanding so many years ago. However, they are proving consistently that they still have what it takes to roll with the young superstars they are defending their championships again. Now, they finally have Mattel WWE figures for fans to re-enact their favorite modern day New Age Outlaws moments.

Mattel WWE Elite 26 Road Dogg Jesse James!

Mattel WWE Elite 26 Road Dogg Jesse James!

The Road Dogg Jesse James blows the roof off of any arena he enters, beckoning the WWE Universe to the ‘Dogg House’ and rhyming his way through a self-introduction to one of the greatest Tag Teams in the history of wrestling. His Mattel WWE figure includes a hat, a D-Generate Road Dogg t-shirt and a classic style D-Generation X t-shirt. With a spot on likeness, pants that bear the D-Generation X style logos that only Road Dogg can pull off, this figure comes ring ready for both classic collections and modern day collections.

Mattel WWE Elite 27 Bad Ass Billy Gunn!

Mattel WWE Elite 27 Bad Ass Billy Gunn!Mattel WWE Elite 27 Bad Ass Billy Gunn!

Also entering the Mattel WWE world is the ‘Bad Ass’ Billy Gunn, also affectionately known as ‘Mr. Ass.’ WWE’s resident ass man gets his first figure treatment in over 7 years, throwing back to his original style during the ‘Attitude Era’ but presenting a modern sentiment with interchangable headbands and two separate D-Generation X t-shirts. His trunks bear plenty of lips symbols and his knee pads are marked with ‘BA,’ which can only stand for ‘Bad Ass!’ The green color and white boots are a style choice Billy Gunn has made famous, making mothers everywhere turn their heads as he pulled his shorts down just enough to be inappropriate when entering the ring. His figure will not have this feature, but he is still just as much of a degenerate.

Mattel WWE New Age Outlaws Package Deal!

Mattel WWE New Age Outlaws Package Deal!

The New Age Outlaws have finally been immortalized in Mattel WWE plastic, but at what cost? The once happy-go-lucky rebels still maintain their wild personalities but carry out the biddings of the controlling, condescending and downright oppressive COO, their fellow D-Generation X member, Triple H. Could their WWE Tag Team Championship opportunity (they did win fair and square, at least) have come from strings being pulled by their friend in the highest possible place? No one knows except the members of D-Generation X themselves, but seeing how quickly the New Age Outlaws can jump to the defense of their old friend smells a little fishy.

Batista Returns To Enter The 2014 Royal Rumble!

Dave Batista showed up on WWE Monday Night RAW, returning to the WWE and ready to challenge for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. The Animal was ring ready, putting his attacking skills to work on Alberto Del Rio, delivering the first Batista-Bomb in a WWE ring in nearly 4 years! He also confronted Randy Orton and told him his sights were set on the Viper directly.

Batista Returns to the WWE in 2014 on RAW!

After making his grand return, the WWE Universe went wild and with no surprise, Batista’s current Mattel WWE offerings became even more popular.

Batista is in Mattel WWE Series 37!
Batista is in Mattel WWE Series 37!

First up, a classic style Batista in Mattel WWE Series 37. This figure lacks his current tattoos, making him more accurate to the WrestleMania timeframe he is portraying. With an itty bitty chin hair for intimidation factor and strapped boots, this is the best old school offering for the Animal.

Batista from the Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Battle Packs!
Batista from the Mattel WWE WrestleMania XXX Battle Packs!

Included in a Mattel WWE Battle Pack celebrating WrestleMania XXX, this Batista figure is a modern day version of The Animal. It has silver and black boots and all of his current, updated tattoos based on the last time he was scanned by Mattel. His beard is a bit different than how he appeared on RAW, but it’s very close to how he looked before returning. The Battle Pack also included The Beast Brock Lesnar, pitting The Animal and The Beast against each other for the first time.

Batista is the easy favorite to win the 2014 Royal Rumble, but he has his work cut out for him as 29 other entrants will no doubt want to main event WrestleMania as well. Good luck, Animal! Walk alone…like you always have.

Mattel WWE Dude Love…The Only Face Of Foley Left!

Mick Foley has maintained three faces (four, if you count his handsome real life face) throughout his wrestling career. Mankind, the wildly bizarre and masked eccentricity, Cactus Jack, the hardcore legend and bandit from the desert, and Dude Love, the peace lovin’, hippy groovin’ dancer. While Dude Love may be considered by many in the WWE Universe to be the least popular of the three, he is certainly the most colorful. Here are a few Mattel WWE possibilities for Dude Love:

Tag Team Champion Mattel WWE Dude Love!

Tag Team Champion Mattel WWE Dude Love!

Dude Love replaced an injured Shawn Michaels and became Tag Team Champion with Stone Cold Steve Austin, helping him face off against the villainous Hart Foundation! With a different style of tie dye and headband, this figure could also include a WWE Attitude Era Tag Team Championship, complete with full gold faceplate. It is certainly the first exposure of the WWE Universe at the time to Dude Love’s wildly free personality.

Classic Mattel WWE Dude Love figure!

Classic Mattel WWE Dude Love figure!

Dude Love maintained a look that included a tie die shirt, headband and blue ring pants that he is most known for and mostly pictured as in the minds of many WWE wrestling fans. With round, hippy style sunglasses and a need to dance his pants off, Dude Love brought a level of fun and silliness that wasn’t often seen during the Attitude Era and fans took to his personality, loving or hating his actions at the time. The sunglasses and a removable headband would make great accessories to any Mattel WWE figure, but especially to this one. A Mattel WWE Elite style of this version of Mrs. Foley’s Baby Boy would hopefully have enough articulation to dance the night away, including the ability to dance to ‘head, shoulders, knees and toes.’

Modern Day Mattel WWE Dude Love figure!

Modern Day Mattel WWE Dude Love figure!

It is no surprise that a huge proprietor of funk in the WWE would one day return to show the modern day funky folk how it’s actually done. Returning to dance with Tons of Funk on RAW, Dude Love grooved and moved with the modern day WWE Universe, Brodus Clay, Sweet T and the Funkadactyls (Cameron and Naomi) as they joined forces to provide an entirely new level of funk to the WWE Universe. A bunch of dancing machines would only make the universe explode with colors and excitement, so fans of Mattel WWE action figures could easily bring that excitement to their ring with a modern day version of Dude Love to dance along with their modern day wrestling figures. If a fan were looking for Mick Foley to step back into the ring for some type of action one last time, this version of Dude Love would certainly provide a fun, if not colorfully silly, option. A giant smiley face shirt with the possibility of being removed may also provide the first shirtless Mick Foley wrestling figure ever, something fans have been clamoring for since Mattel attained the WWE license. Dude Love remains a bright and cheery portion of Mick Foley’s career, one that fans related to and one that he can be proud of despite its’ reputation.

A Mattel WWE nWo Hulk Hogan Possibility!

With Hulk Hogan’s WWE deal return rumored to be imminent, the speculation runs rampant as to what his return will entail and how he will make his present felt both in the WWE and possibly at WrestleMania. While he most likely will be a favorite of the fans upon his return, Hulk Hogan’s wrestling history will be constantly discussed, analyzed and remembered. Among this is his time in the nWo, perfectly geared towards many different Mattel WWE action figures. Here are a few of the different looks that would make great Hulk Hogan wrestling action figures:

Mattel WWE Bash at the Beach 1996 Hulk Hogan!

Mattel WWE Bash at the Beach 1996 Hulk Hogan!

The nWo Hulk Hogan wrestling figure conversation simply can’t be had without bringing up Hulk Hogan’s original look when forming the nWo. At Bash at the Beach 1996, the WCW was taken by storm and it was the last time for years and years that fans would see the red and yellow version of Hulk Hogan they had grown to love. This may be the only version of the red and yellow that invokes evil feelings for many fans of the Hulkster.

Classic nWo Hollywood Hulk Hogan Mattel WWE figure!

Classic nWo Hollywood Hulk Hogan Mattel WWE figure!

WCW champion and villain too cool for words, Hollywood Hulk Hogan sported the black and white best he could. With the Hollywood bandana, defaced, spraypainted WCW championship and any number of lightning bolted tights, Hulk Hogan’s leadership of the nWo is classic World Championship Wrestling. A version of this Hogan as opposed to a version based on his match with The Rock at WrestleMania 18 would be unique and not something done in a classic style wrestling figure to date.

Mattel WWE Wolfpac Hollywood Hulk Hogan figure!

Mattel WWE Wolfpac Hollywood Hulk Hogan figure!

After the ‘Finger Poke of Doom’ incident and the re-inclusion of Hulk Hogan in the New World Order, Hogan began to sport a look that was a combination of nWo Wolfpac style and nWo Hollywood style. Though short lived, this look is memorable for many fans of Hogan. With WCW heading downhill shortly after, Hulk Hogan’s WCW days may very well have ended in the fans of many with this look.

nWo Hulk Hogan vs. The Rock Mattel WWE figure!

nWo Hulk Hogan vs. The Rock Mattel WWE figure!

When facing off with The Rock at WrestleMania 18, Hulk Hogan wore a black and white boa, nWo shirt and detailed ring tights and boots to step in the squared circle. One of his most memorable looks as a member of the nWo didn’t take place in a WCW ring, but when facing off against the Great One. Many fans who missed WCW’s original run only enjoy this version of Hulk Hogan, and thus he must be included on the list.

Hulk Hogan is a wrestling icon, quite possibly the most famous and recognizable wrestler in the world to this very day, and his time in the New World Order from it’s formation to it’s disbandment to it’s reformation in the WWE, he is as representative of the Black and White as one can get.
