Parents usually buy more toys for kids than adults do for themselves. I don't buy my kids squat. Oh, that's right, I don't have kids. I just pretend I do when a cashier says, "Wow, it must be somebody's birthday! You must have a lucky son." I'm not embarrassed, sometimes lying makes life easier.

I just wanted to collect a new legends line just like I did with Jakks. Simple! I agree. I've only been a regular here since about Jakks Classics 8. Yeah there were problems with Jeremy and Jakks but I swear those days were a lot more positive. Especially with wrestler selection. Today every wrestler from 25 years ago is deemed not relevant.

If I had a dollar for every time I got asked if I needed a gift receipt...

Alright what we've learned since the poll started. 1)Every one is pissy lil bitches that cant do anything but complain. 2)If figures arent made of the guys you want, "ZOMG ITZ TEH END OF LEGNDZ 4EVRZ" Big round of applause for all the classy people on WFigs now days! I just wanted to collect a new legends line just like I did with Jakks. Simple! BUT: Consatnt shafting, the line going to poop, being told one thing one day another the next, having to wait forever to build a legends collection, 6 sets a yr-down to 6 figs a yr, 2-packs EXTREMLY Limited (to one a yr it looks like), tons of legends who wont get figs due to poor marketing/poll ideas, DDP voted #1 due to spam voting, high prices in poop economy, HIGHER Prices now at Matty, ignorant fans that are apparently ok with this crap and shoot down others ideas instead of trying to come up with some for Mattel to try and help. As I've posted in other threads, Complaining or voicing your opinion about products and services is the #1 reason those products or services are changed/improved upon! Buisness 101! Its one thing to ask questions, it a complete other to bitch and complain. There is two totally different things. Mattel has yet to shaft us on anything...well maybe the rubber shirts. The line didnt sell well. Partially our fault, partially their fault, partially Jakks fault. There is 0 proof so far that figures on Mattycollector are going to be "high priced". In fact, we dont know anything about the price on there. In fact, looking at their site (which Im sure most people havent) there 6-8 inch figures all seem to run between 15 and 20 dollars. Its the ignorant fans that just complain without doing any research or waiting for FACTUAL proof. The comes the whole complaint of "Oh they're not giving us any figures." No, like I said before, they're not giving "YOU" the figures you want so you complain. With the Flashback line, Heritage line, Defining Moments, Legends on Matty and any Exclusives...guess what?? We're still getting the exact same amount of legends we have been getting. BUT because people bitched about distribution, they are now distributing them differently...actually helping those international shoppers and guess what....WFigs is STILL bitching. Business 101 is going to tell you to make money. That's what a business does. Having your product clog shelves isnt going to make you money. Limiting you production numbers, releasing a great product, without driving up the prices for your consumers is exactly what any business should aim for. That's exactly what Mattel is doing. You might want to complain when you have to pay an extra $10 for shipping (US customers of course) but you didnt seem to be complaining when you had to put $20 in gas in your car to drive around to different stores to maybe or maybe not find figures in. Again though, sitting and actually THINKING about a situation is slightly harder to do then just signing on and bitching about something.

I've yet to ever really have an outwardly negative experience buying from Matty. It can be a pin yeah, but it's been mostly positive for me. Plus, it's not unheard of for them to put stuff you may have missed out on on sale again at a later date. For 2013, they should do a Club WWE like they do with everything else and have a really awesome Club exclusive.

They won't put anything there until it gets closer to the release so late Oct you see that the Rockers will be coming in Nov, but they won't actually be on the site until Noon eastern the day of the release.
