With Ms. Elizabeth coming out at the end of the year or so and the word that she has been pulled from the Legends line and moved to the Elite Flashbacks really concerns me after really thinking about it. The Legends packaging was epic, the art work and the visual presentation of the Legends carding really gave a throwback, true classic feel. Since the day Elizabeth was announced, I pictured how awesome Ms. Elizabeth would look in legends packaging next to Legends Randy Savage. The two of them in matching packaging is a must in my mind and I think moving her to the Elite line in Flashback packaging will really be disapointing packaging wise. Do any of you feel the same way? No matter what getting Elizabeth is huge and most important but can we get enough word out to Mattel to get them to grant us one last Legends wish and keep the Legends packaging JUST for Elizabeths release ? For such a special release as anticipated as her's, how cool would it be if Mattel made one last Legends style package for Elizabeth so that she can match The Macho Man from Legends Series 5?

Not going to happen. The legends carding wouldn't fit in the 8 piece elite case with 7 other elites

My guess is that they already have the package design done and since it will be a Flashback in the Elite line, it will be in Elite Packaging.

I understand that it will most likely be in Elite Flashback packaging but I bet they had already made the Legends carding for the Matty release and it would just be awesome if they used it one last time because it will really take away from her figure being in Elite packaging...I can wish I guess.

It's too late and like PJ stated, it's not going to fit.
I wished it stayed in Legends packaging with the white box but alas, at least we are getting her in Mattel form.

It'd look great and all, but from a business standpoint of gaining/losing money--it just isn't likely. Maybe someone can make you a custom one?

it's not like we won't get a Macho Man as a flashback... but then again, they do change the packaging every year... maybe it won't be that noticeable? or just get good a custom packaging.

It's Elite.
Retailers DO NOT WANT Legends packaging.

This figure will end up loose in my collection anyways so it doesn't matter one way or another to me.

I hear where your coming from even though I'm not a MOC collector. But I can also say I'm just glad she is getting made. Mattel has accomplished in a few short years what jakks couldnt do in its Classic Superstars series....multiple macho Man and a Liz. I mean c'mon these two were probably the biggest must haves that Jakks couldn't produce. I bet Mattel could release Elizabeth in a plastic bag and she'd be snatched up in a heartbeat. Bottom line: no matter what she is packaged in Elizabeth is getting made.

Elizabeth in a Legends packaging is never ever going to happen, so I am fine with her in a Elite Flashback packaging!
