I just picked up a lot of really nice figs this week (Basic 10 Barrett/Ryder, WMH2 Melina, and Legends 2 Sheik/Funk), and a couple of them were Legends. Legends 2 Terry Funk and Legends 2 Iron Sheik. They are VERY nice figures. Well, I got Sheik today at Family Dollar for only $7.50, and I honestly think this is the best Legends figure released so far. It has PHENOMENAL detail, a PERFECT head scan, and a PERFECT body mold. It took years, but Sheiky Baby has finally been given justice in action figure form. This is without doubt my favorite Legends from Mattel so far. It got me thinking, what are the rest of my fellow collector's favorite Legends figures? This is NOT inclusiding DM, EG, and the SDCC Undertaker. However, I'd like to know your favorites out of those, as well.

All-Stars Macho Man and EGs Shawn Michaels are probably my two favorites. Those are the two at the center of my Legends display right now anyway. DMs Macho Man and Ultimate Warrior are right in there as well for me.

Sooo hard as I love them all. For coolness, I just think it's awesome to finally have Ricky Steamboat face off against Macho Man Randy Savage.
Bam Bam's really nice too, but I think Vader is my favorite for the extra effort of removable masks and the cape/cloak. Just a great figure. Only bad thing is no Sting for him to fight :-(

If I could only choose 5 (I'm leaving out L6 because I don't have them yet:
1. Mr. Wonderful - I was expecting red or white but Mattel went blue. I'm glad they did.
2 and 3. Road Warriors.
4. Macho Man - L5 because I like the T-shirt. I had one when i was in fourth grade.
5. Rick Rude - I would have preferred long haired Rude. But this one has grown on me. May be an under rated figure.

Toss up between Vader and Bam Bam. Jakks version of both guys were good, but Mattel's versions are great!

How could anyone choose?
The Legends line is just plain and simply incredible.
I'll try and give you a answer.......My second figure I got.....Kamala followed closly by Rick Martel and Texas Tornado.
That was hard. It would be easier to list the ones are wasnt impressed with and that would be a short list!

Legends 3 Pillman has to be my favourite. Loose Cannon is probably my favourite gimmick ever, and the fig just captures that whole era of Flyin' Brian perfectly.
