If we get Jim Neidhart in his '97 Hart Foundation attire w/ jacket, we have the whole accurate set sans Owen. And we'll never get Owen within the near future, so that's as complete as it'll get.

The only one I didn't recognize from that list is Baron Von Raschke. Looking him up, I can see why...He goes back to the days of Verne Gagne and Mad Dog Vachon with only a brief WWF stint as the Powers of Pain's manager, the Baron. He may be the only one I wouldn't be interested in getting but then again, it's cool to learn more about wrestling history. I never saw the Von Erichs but enjoyed looking into their history and seeing how they made an impact in professional wrestling. It made me appreciate the figures even more!
The rest of the list would be must-haves for me! Yes, even Koko B. Ware and the Brooklyn Brawler. Maybe they weren't traditional legends but, to me, they were colorful and memorable characters nonetheless. Honky Tonk Man is a must, he's the greatest Intercontinental Champion of all time! We need Jim the Anvil Neidhart to have a complete Hart Foundation. The Fabulous Rougeau Brothers would be a neat classic tag team. Tatanka is another cool choice, the man was undefeated for over a year. Even Virgil is a nice addition to go with the Million Dollar Man...But this means we really should get an Elite M$M first!
Anyway, it's a good list for a classic era of wrestling, I wish it was more than a rumored list of potential Legends figures!

I never get when people say "____ a legend?"
Most of the time i'd rather have guys made that werent champs , even sometimes only had a brief stint in wrestling like giant gonzalez. I love characters. I'd even buy Nailz if they made him
with that said, Id buy all of those except Baron Von Rashke and Koko B Ware.... I Love Characters but koko b ware is intellectually- disabled

I'd buy all of them. I'm fairly sure Honky Tonk and the Rougeaus are signed. Hoping "Anvil" and Koko aren't on the "false" list.

I'd buy them all except Baron Von Whomever. No disrespect intended, but no. And considering how old he is compared to every legend that's already been made, I'm betting he's in the false category.
Also, I sure hope we don't get a Virgil before we get an elite Million Dollar Man. And the Rougeau brothers were probably slated for the legends two-packs before that was scraped. Good thing, because they would've warmed pegs too!

MDT, I'm terrible market research for you all as I'd buy every one of those guys, even Baron Von Raschke to help the Ivan and Nikita take on Dusty and the Warriors.
I'd love to get the Rogeaus in a Matty.com tag team exclusive.
Slightly OT, would the WWE allow for a faction boxset [i.e. Dangerous Alliance, Heenan Family] since Matty.com is an option? That DC Legion of Superheroes set sold in record time and I wonder if that's even a possible option.
Clearly an nWo or 4 Horsemen set wouldn't work since the big gun/guns are with other companies, but with all the various alliances and teams in wrestling [like a Super Powers/Road Warriors set], some could prove viable for that kind of format, right?
