It won't be available for pre order (as far as I know,) and will only be sold on Matty Collector in January.

They haven't told us the quantity yet, but from others say about ordering from Matty Collector, quantity is somewhat limited, and when stuff goes up for sale, the website runs slowly, so I'd get one as soon as you can. They should post an exact release day within the next month or so I'd imagine.

Supposed to be on sale in January. Usually there is heavy traffic the morning something goes on sale, but usually you can order like 6 or 10 of each item in a lot of cases. The Rockers 2 pack is actually going to be the first item offered through Matty and I think that is in November or December.

I want to say Bill (MDT) said somewhere that its because of cost they have to make at least 5,000 figures or its not going to generate a profit for them with the labor costs. If Legends are limited to 5,000 pieces or more, I think we'll be perfectly alright.

Rockers are Nov 21st. Andre is in Jan. It usually says you can order up to 10, but things do sell out fast on the days they list them.

The Rockers are so in demand that I figure those would sell well and hopefully lead to more Legends tag teams on the site. That'd be the best bet for the Hart Foundation as they are another highly demanded team that would likely sell out.
As for Andre, Matty typically has the items for sale on the third full week of the month. Looking at the calendar, I'd assume he'll be up on Jan. 16 along with everything else.

I had no idea The Rockers were coming so soon. Hopefully we get informed on a price point soon for them. I'm expecting $35-40 for some reason.
Total side question that hopefully some of you can help on, has L6 been confirmed to see a retail release? I really want the Von Erichs for my small personal collection, but I don't know what the deal with that series is. I think I saw someone recently mention that Mattel said they'd be coming to stores soon.

I'm expecting the Rockers to be $50. I hope it's cheaper, but I've set aside $125 for 2 sets plus shipping. I'm hoping they add the WWE catagory to their site soon so we can see what the cost will be.

Can't understand why a much wanted figure like Andre the Giant isn't a future flashback figure and Is now certain to cause so many collectors around the world so much difficulty in buying

I really don't think that they will cost $50 I think the 2 packs will be 30-32 tops Remember how well the previous 2 packs sold

I honestly think $30 is way too low. I just can't see it being priced the exact same as something found in a store, unless Mattel is willing to eat the costs a bit to ease collectors into the online route. Realistically, I think most of us will be spending around $45 shipped for the set.

I think the Rockers will go for $40-$45 shipped. I'll consider it depending on the price, but I really don't think it will be cheap. Andre and DDP are sure thing for me....if they don't sell out

Honestly so long as the people who want them get them if somebody wants to buy 10 that "should" ensure they'll keep pumping them out. It's a real sticky issue with these.
If I remember right PJ, the DCUC two-packs were $35 so tack on another $10 for shipping and I think we're about right with the pricing.
