Nope, I'm perfectly fine with not having anymore legends in my current figure line. It's nice every once in awhile when they sprinkle a basic legends in here and there to add a new character, but I'd much prefer they stick with the current roster. It's not that I don't love old school wrestling as much as the next guy, but I personally feel the new guys need their figures now. The old legends had there chance with figures and a good majority got a figure made somewhere in the past whether it be in the LJN, Hasbro, or Jakks line. thats sounds great for you being a current wrestling collector/fan, but really leaves us old school only collectors/fans out in the cold. your geting what you like and get to have fun collecting, us old school guys just want the same opportunity. you'll understand later in life when Dolf Ziggler & CM punk are legends and you want to collect old school stuff. |

No, I like how they're doing it right now. If they had a whole series again of just Legends then some of them would be getting the shaft in accessories/paint jobs because of the budget they would have. The few Flashbacks now seem to be getting everything that is needed for them and nothing is being left out because of budget reasons. The ones that get the shaft are often the guys we've already seen a 100 times which is just fine by me.

I would love it, but I wouldn't want to see a Legends-type line crash and burn again. I think I'd rather see two Flashbacks per wave-- one popular (Warrior, Undertaker, etc) and one more niche (Tugboat, IRS, etc.).

I'm 26. I'm old enough to have been collecting all through the LJN, Hasbro, and Jakks lines. If you want to collect them, they are available to collect. |

Mattel makes Legends line---doesn't sell
Mattel makes Legends an online exclusive-------doesn't sell
they sprinkle 1 or 2 legends into the elite series-------they sell
U gotta go with what works. And they way it is now works. Plus not every flashback sells out. Papa Shango, Edge, Mankind, Undertaker, Liz, HBK and Christian were easy to get....and the most recent of those u can still find online for less than retail.
As much as I would like a Junk Yard Dog, Doink or a King Harley Race figure........there are tons of current guys who don't have elites yet. That should be the priority imo
