I thought by now we would see a Steamboat/Savage Wrestlemania 3 2-pack. Anybody else surprised we have yet to see this?

Not really. I dont think Steamboats Legends and DM figures sold very well. Saw his 2 pack with Jericho sitting on shelves forever as well.

That may or may not be true, however we know that Macho Man figures sell very well and unless you started watching wrestling this year, everyone knows that Steamboat vs Savage WMIII is considered one of the all-time top 10 best matches in history. They've got Steamboat's mold catching dust in some factory in China, I'd say it's a no-brainer to get a two-pack of these guys going.

Not surprised at all. They tried three Steamboat figures before, none of which did very well. And they've only ever done three two-packs of all Legends, in the failed Toys R Us series. If they were going to start integrating basic two-packs of Legends, there'd be plenty on the priority list above Steamboat vs Savage.

Personally, none of the Steamboats that have been released have really interested me and I love Steamboat and that match. Maybe if they released a mold representing Wrestlemania III I'd buy one.

I really want a Chi-Town Rumble Ricky Steamboat in the green. I suppose that really isn't an option until we get Flair but that's really the Steamboat of Steamboats for me personally. To the point though, I think we may see him in the white in the Mania Heritage line at some point if the influx of guys like Mr. Perfect works out. It's going to be just like Flashbacks. If the older guys sell they will continue to make others. I don't know how well a 2-pack would sell honestly, I have to imagine it's a niche demand, but I'd take it if Mattel decided to make it.
I do think it would be really cool as a one time try to see a special series of Mania Heritage 2-packs. So (obviously when possible) something like Hogan vs Andre, Savage vs Steamboat (1 per) and HBK vs Austin.

I'd probably buy it, can't imagine it's on their radar of packs to put out at the moment but who knows.

Yes, very. I thought for sure we'd have least seen a BP set with a Savage vs Steamboat with the IC title by now.

Can't say I'm surprised to be honest.
