EVERY store I go to it's the same thing in my area - Legends 2-Packs, Legends 3 shelf warmers, Entrance Greats Piper, a million Flex Force figures and about 3 million Rumblers figures/sets. It's not enough every store in my area sucks, but do I really have to see these little bastards everywhere I go??  I don't get these figures. Every little kid I see looking at wrestling figures just looks right past them. The Flex Force, as much as I hate them, I can kinda understand. The Rumblers, though, are just major shelf warmers at every store I go to. I can't imagine this line is possibly selling well, right? |

They wouldn't keep making them if they weren't selling....I enjoy them to display. I've always loved having mini animated figures, whether cartoons, movies, etc. since I was little. To have little animated wrestlers is awesome! Wish they came up with it sooner! Now I'll agree with you that I'm sick of seeing series 1 and 2. I'm ready for 3 to hit mass retail already.
Mattel also expanded the series to 7 2-packs from like 4 in the past 2 sets. That's a lot! I don't think they would do this if the line wasn't doing well, just saying.
I am sick of seeing Flex Force crap though. Those need to go!

I like the Rumblers and think they're fun, wish I could find series 3.

I don't buy these at all but I don't have a problem with them.

Just about every major license has or had similar figures so I would imagine they are popular. I don't think we need single packs, double packs, and triple packs. But I do like them.

I saw a Wal-Mart today that had 0 Basic figures, 3 Elite Hornswoggles, and 12 Flex Force figs. Man, what a selection! Keep the Haters away from the Rumblers! |

Rumblers>Flex Force. I would collect Rumblers if I had the extra scratch, but being an Elite completist is expensive enough, especially when there are so many basics I can't turn down on top of that.

agreed.
flex force is awesome for kids to play with.. totally play-able, while rumblers are awful looking at probably decent for 3 yr olds play! BUT EVEN WORSE... u have to know all that money in rumblers is obviously another reason the legends line is canceled..

... u have to know all that money in rumblers is obviously another reason the legends line is canceled.. That's crazy talk ;D. I can't believe people think production of one line affects the production of another. Besides that I would imagine Rumblers are quite a bit cheaper to produce and might be more profitable. |

Do WWE Rumblers fit in with GI Joe Combat Heroes and the little DC guys?

The rumblers were selling, but at the crazy price of nearly 11.00 in target and tru in my area after tax not so much. I'm seeing all of series 1 in stores and there not moving at all

Legends Rumblers would be awesome but Mattel said it's more of a kids line so you probably won't see them. Maybe an exclusive or something??

They wouldn't keep making them if they weren't selling.! Hopefully that's why we haven't seen series 3 anywhere but a few stores about a month and a half ago. Maybe they did stop making them. I hate the Rumblers and wish Mattel would drop the line and just focus on Basics, Elites & Legends styled figures (Including 2packs, Entrance Greats, DM, All Stars, etc). Flex force is for the kiddies and those seem to sell even though they are crap. I don't mind them nearly as much, but pretty much anything else is a waste and takes away from their bread & butter core product.0 |

I don't buy them but they move quicker here than some of the main lines do. I guess demand varies per area just like everything else.
