    I'd prefer them in their luchador attires with capes...




    But I suppose a special edition one can be made with their slacks and jackets as well.

          To posters who are not familiar with both el Santo and Blue Demon...

          Santo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

          Blue Demon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

          Both incredibly popular still to this day....despite both of them being long gone.

          Here are very rare pictures of both without their masks...they both kinda looked like Sicilian mobsters...lol....

          el Santo (Rodolfo Guzmán Huerta)...




          Blue Demon (Alejandro Muñoz Moreno)...

            The fourth most popular old school masked luchador after el Santo, Blue Demon, and Mil Mascaras...is Tinieblas.

            He was not in the same league as the others as far as being a technical wrestler...he started kinda late (32)...but he was the biggest and strongest Mexican masked luchador of his time...standing at 6' 3" 240 lbs...he was a giant back then...especially in Mexico...



            Tinieblas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


            This is how I rank them in order of legendary status (old school masked luchadores)...

            1. el Santo
            2. Blue Demon
            3. Mil Mascaras
            4. Tinieblas
            5. Rayo de Jalisco, Sr.

                  The comic book writers copied Tinieblas...because the character of Bane was created in 1993.

                  Tinieblas made his debut way back in 1971.

                  Bane is Tinieblas...not the other way around...

                    Here's another cool shot of Blue Demon in his formal get up. Gotta say, I just love the look of luchadores in their swanky after hours gear.

                                Was there a wrestler by the name of Tito Santana? For some reason I remember that name...possibly fighting Pedro Morales??
