It's easy...It doesn't mean Bundy was top on everyone's lists. It just means he has had the most votes tallied off all the ballots. You are kidding right? Series 6 was the last series at retail. They are now going to be Matty Collectors exclusives. The Rockers in Nove. Andre in Jan and then the 5 winners of the poll every other month in 2012 Not kidding. Got out of collecting after scale issues w/ Perfect & Duggan coupled with $16 per fig. Thinking of getting back in if its only 6 to 10 figs a year. Ok, so that means only 6 new figs per year going forward, right? The "Legends" banner is now going to be a Matty Collectors exclusive. 6 figures a year. Elites will have 1 or 2 "Flashbacks" in each Series with Series 11 or 12 staring with Kane (Debut) and Papa Shango. Basic Heritage lines will also get "Flashbacks" in them. Then there's the DM. So there will still be about 20 "Legends" a year between all 4 of those lines, but only the Matty Collectors will be in Legends packaging.

Except ffor Miss Elisabeth. It's a LAME LIST! That so-called "top 5" won't sell well... Some sad mark must have been voting for the sames ones every day '

You know the funny thing about all the people complaining about how poorly these figures will do one they're actually released...
I'm pretty sure the same thing would happen no matter who got the votes. Personally, I'm thrilled with the list even though I had only voted for two of them, Arn and Tully were my 6 and 7. I'm not that excited about Bundy, but I'm sure he will be a good figure. While I know voting on this has been very flawed, he's still a very popular guy among a lot o people, and had a lot of cross over media in the late 80s.
Not to mention Magnum is my number 1, so I'm looking forward to getting him.
I'm sure things will be fine. I know I'm going to buy them all. I just hope we get all the figures on that list eventually. I especially want JYD and Barry Windham.

I know I voted for Arn, Windham and Tully. I can't remember who else. I think DDP and Magnum. I want horsemen. At least I want Arn made first.

If Tully and Arn both make it into the top 5 they should just do them in a 2 pack and release the 6th figure as a single

This process would be far better without the crappy voting and with protos.
Show us all 17 protos and only allow 5 votes per person and let that be it.

I just wish they'd set up a separate tag team vote as well so we could vote for maybe 12 singles and 3 tag teams. WWB, I'm with you. Bundy's definitely worth including in the line and he should be a pretty sweet figure from Mattel. My early WWF Heenan Family is strangely lacking and he'd be a nice one to kick it off with.

Show us all 17 protos and only allow 5 votes per person and let that be it. excellent point would be nice to actually see the figures we were voting on. a lot of people, myself included, might change their votes depending on the look of the figures. we already know for sure that the protos for Arn, Magnum and DDP have been made. but even if they don't wanna make protos of some of the choices yet, they could at least show a picture or description of roughly how the figure will look (attire, accessories, headscan expression, etc). as i'd bet the photos on the poll are just random and have little relation to how the final figures would look. although none of this matters really, the fact that you can vote unlimited times means the poll is completely useless and biased anyway.

Why would you want the Horsemen if there is no Ric Flair coming at all?

Using the Funk body, Flair is one of the easier figs to customize.

Wfigs is only a very small percentage of those that collect. Also there are a ton of collectors that still have no idea where to vote nor have they voted. With these being limited runs and online exclusives, we should get what they give us.
