I don't get why people would vote for Bundy, Arn, Tully, etc. guys that have already got great Jakks figures, vote for guys like Faarooq and Savio Vega that never got any type of classic figure, and who still only have BCA's... You keep saying this and I have to say that's pretty pool logic. I am a figure collector and I do not display any of my Mattel's, Jakks, Galoob, Hasbro or Toy Biz together. They all have their own displays. I keep Mattel with Mattel...CS with CS...CSDA with CSDA...Galoob w/ Galoob etc. So I don't care if another company made a figure before I want a Mattel version of every figure I purcahsed by Jakks + others. I mean hell. if that was the cas why would I have bought any Mr Perfect that was released after the Hasbro figure as that was a GREAT figure! It's the first time I said it...and I display all of my figures together, so I want different guys that haven't been made...but still, wouldn't you rather have figures of guys that never got updated classic figures over guys that had many from Jakks...?

I didn't mean just you specifically there's been like 4 or 5 people say that in this thread. It should have read "You guys keep saying that" And yes I'd love to see plenty of guys that never had a figure before like Pedro Morales, David Von Erich, Magnum, Etc but only Magnum was offered in the poll. And there's plenty of guys that have been made that I'd love to see a Mattel version of like Muraco, Steiner Brothers, Barefooted Snuka, British Bulldogs, Tito Santana, a Young WWWF champion Bob Backlund...etc. But as far as the poll went I ranked them all in the order I'd want them and picked my top 5. As far as the list goes I hope they all get released one way or another, but at just 6 "Legends" a year on Matty I don't want the first year to have 3 out of 6 that I have no interest in...I can deal with 2 out of the 6 being figures I don't want, but not half. Or it'll be a very long year for me.

No, Personally I Hate R.A Figures. I Dont Own Any, I Dont Want to Own Any, And I Think Mattel Would Do a Much Better Job, Anyhow the R.A Figures are out of Scale to Mattel, even if its close , I Cant Have My Mattel Collection Which is all in Scale.... with a R.A Jim Neidhart which is as Tall as Undertaker and Bigger than Vader. To Me Jakks Dont Exist, It Would be the Same as Putting a Hasbro In My Collection to fill in a gap... So When i see Guys Like King Kong Bundy, Crush, Arn Anderson, Etc..... I Dont think about their Jakks figure, I Think How I Cant Wait to See How Awesome Mattel Makes These Look

Heated debate lol... I can see where both sides are coming from with guys like PJ on one side and zombieapocalypse on the other... I personally am torn because I don't just display mine and would love to see how much better Mattel could do with some of these same legends compared to Jakks but I also wanna see new guys made to and with only 6 a year its a tough call... Damn you Mattel for pulling my brain in 2 different directions

Wait...so you can vote as much as you want??? Shouldn't we only be getting one vote each? I feel like if it's only a handful of people voting for the same guys over and over then it's not really a true sample of what we want.

I think this thing is RIGGED! I mean the ones that are winning are a few figures we've seen protos of already (Magnum & Arn). Plus ones that i'm sure they've made that we just haven't seen (Bundy & Tully). Seems like they are just trying to drum up fan interest even though they already know who they'll make. Also, I highly doubt any of these will sell out very quickly accept maybe Liz. Bundy, Tully & Arn warmed shelves for along when Jakks made them. And most modern fan (excluding die-hard fans like myself) dont even know who TA is.

Damn you Mattel for pulling my brain in 2 different directions I don't think Zombie and I are on different sides. I think we both agree there shouldn't have been a "fan's poll" and just get what Mattel offered. (especially if it is legit and it's not a limited vote) We both agree that it doesn't matter that Jakks or anopther company had released figures already we want Mattel version of them. And we both want all figures on the list of 17 to get released at some point as that'll mean the Line is doing well. The only thing we don't agree on is a couple selections (He'd rather have a Doink & DDP and I'd rather have a Magnum or Tully) But like I said I think we both want all 17 figures to get released at some point...I'd buy all except Savio & Doink

I've watched wrestling since 1985 and because it seems like mattel is doing a limited amount of wrestlers I see how people are getting up tight about some of the selections. But since I'm such a long time fan and pretty much want everyone on the list it sucks to have to pick. But Arn/Tully/JYD/Bundy are lightyears ahead of guys like Doink/Farooq/Savio on my agenda.

Also, Bundy was listed on another site as probable for a future Legends line-up. I am sure more than half the characters listed (if not all) already have protos given the fact it takes about a year to produce a figure as per Mattel.

I think all 17 already have protos made. I think these are the figures that were going to be release in upcoming Legends waves (Both Singles & 2-Packs)

This does seem rigged, but I'm actually glad with the choices Mattel is making. The only change I would make is replacing Bundy with either Crush or Windham.
