Quick question, I just noticed there are just 5 figures in Legend Series 5, How come? Anyone know? Was there someone that was supposed to be there that never got released like... Face Paint guy in Elite 1?

Nope. Mattel cut back the number because people were b!tching about the cost of a complete set. So they cut back the number in a set from 6 down to 4. It was very annoying when they did that, because after the next wave Legends were done. So if they had kept it at 6 we could have at least gotten Magnum and Austin (jeans) before Legends went to Matty. (both were in series 7)

Face Paint guy in Elite 1? That would have actually been series 6. Series 5 only had 4 in the set. Bam Bam Bigelow, Akeem, Rick Martel & Randy Savage. Series 6 had 5. Eddie Guerrero, Texas Tornado, Kevin Von Erich, Kerry Von Erich & Ultimate Warrior. |

Series 6 was only 4 also. With Tornado and Kerry being a split. (sort of like E4 Jericho).

Tornado & Kerry were variants of each other, but were packed in the same case, similar to the diff colored Jericho in e4 & Dibiase in e10.

I think Mattel already knew they were probably going to cancel the line after Legends Series 4 so they scaled back to just a few figures per series for cost reasons for the last couple waves and kept the line around to see if the sales would pick up. I remember my Walmart getting Legends series 5 at 15.97 a piece and other than Savage I dont think they sold hardly any Martel, Akeem or Bigelow figures if at all and then clearanced them out at 8 bucks a piece.
