I just heard an interview with Ray Rougeau.
I remember him saying during Fan Festival in France that he and his brother Jacques signed a deal to appear in the future Legends Lineup. It was back in June 2010;
During his interview, he mentioned it again.
With Mattel dropping the ball on Legends line, will this Tag team ever be released in your opinion?
The only way seems to be as an Exclusive (I don't see it in Flashback and DM Lines)

Well I don't remember seeing them in the options for the poll. Some seem to be under the impression that Mattel will make all those figures eventually and are just making us vote for the order they come out in. Personally I would suspect that they would replace the options with new choices for a new poll next year, either way we would have to wait a least a year to find out.
There is also the chance they may come out in the Elite Flashbacks, however I personally find that unlikely as I would believe Mattel would concentrate more on figures from the 90s that are fresher in the minds of the current fans (New Generation and Attitude Era/Monday Night Wars).

I suppose that wrestlers available on votes are not the only Legends signed under "Legend Contract"
I still see Legends 2 packs invading TRU as exclusives though. I think it's the only way to have the Rougeaus...
As you mentioned, we'll certainly have 90's era Legends.
Guys like Kevin Nash , Yokozuna , even Mankind seem inevitable...
Flashback Elite seems good. I just do not want the same packaging that Elite has. They still can do something like Jakks do (having Legends box for the Legend coming out in regular series)

I think if TRU was still getting new 2 packs they would be a possibility. If they get them as an exclusive then maybe, but why would they want more? I don't see the Rougeaus selling very well. They were basically a jobber heel tag team. I never liked them, and wouldn't buy them, but a lot would, but I don't think enough.

We might see a Mountie, but I doubt Mattel would do a Rougeau two pack.

I remember hearing that in an interview with Raymond as well, but with the lack of Legends figures going forward i doubt we'll ever see these figures (maybe a Jacq as Mountie). Just because they sign someone doesn't mean they'll ever be made (ask Blackjack Mulligan, Arnond Saaklund, Headbangers, Marc Merc, etc etc - darn Jakks).

I hope we get both the Rougeaus and the Mountie... I wouldn't mind Quebeccers too, but really if you have the Mountie you're halfway there The Rougeaus would make awesome figures. I'd love most of the teams from the late 80s though.

The Rougeaus would be very cool to have they were a very solid team during the 80's. Who knows if these will see the light of day since Tatanka, Brooklyn Brawler, Koko B Ware, Jim Neidhart,Honky Tonk Man , Greg Valentine are all supposedly signed along with the guys from the Matty poll

dnt see it in flashback, just 2 spots, i say keep those to two higher card stars, like next Flashbk: HBK from 1997 with entrance attire chaps, then either yokozuna or earthquake..or big bossman.
ROCKERS is set to matty website only, i think it well sell very well, but i hope they hype it up on wwe.com before the date, i dont want it to just be "us" cause then the sales will be poor.. once the #''s of $$ are in, i say either give us the best to choose from on matty... Like a tag team every 2-3 mths.. although i's prefer to have just 3 series a year with 3 teams each.. in TRU and all stores.. and if mattel wakes up get them into england, cananda, france, japan, mexico... Legion of Doom ( survivor series 90 ) Hart Foundation ( snme 90, rope break rockers win) Fabulous Roguea brothers ( capes tied around neck, tiny american flags, biker shorts, big gold L5 macho knee pads, 2 tone boots, ugly brown wristpads on raymond ( SAVANT KICK!!) British Bulldogs ( same caps but attached to wrists as well, white tights w/ england flag on rear)
i see mattel bringing back another ALL STARS wave to tru first.. i believe they sold very well..
dying to see a Survivor Series , Royal Rumble, Summer SLam, or Wrestlemania Heritage Line with real legends...

totally agree for the theme songs^^
Yeah, Twin Towers era Bossman should be great (I prefer that than the "weight loss Bossman" from 92!
Akeem is a great figure , no doubt about it. Legends are a great line, it's still a shame that they 'stopped' it...
