So the elite BAF seems to sell decently and we all know the basic set rots on the shelves. What do you think if they did a best of ppv flashback series instead. For example...
Build a Figure - Vince McMahon circa 1999
Stone Cold Steve Austin - St Val Massacre
Big Show - Wrestlemania 2000
Undertaker - Wrestlemania 15
Sgt Slaughter - Wrestlemania 7
What do you guys think?

Sure. I think it's something that could work a couple of times, but I'd hope they wouldn't be TRU exclusives anymore...

That sounds amazing, but the prices would up because they are not figures you see everyday, like Cena or Orton

If they want the BAF set to sell, then they need not make the sets all come with Alberto Del Rio (I'm serious, I know I say it a lot, but I'm dead serious) and they also need sets to stop having repeats. I know its because they want people to buy them, but that is clearly not working.
Look at these line-ups
Build an Interview set:
Rey Mysterio
Christian
John Cena
Mark Henry
Build an Announce Table set:
John Cena
The Rock
Sheamus
HHH
Build a Theodore Long set:
Randy Orton
Brock Lesnar
Alberto Del Rio
Brock Lesnar
Build a Booker T set:
Undertaker
Alberto Del Rio
The Rock
Sheamus
Build a Paul Bearer set:
Daniel Bryan
Dolph Ziggler
Damien Sandow
Kofi Kingston
Build a Michael Cole set:
Triple H
Daniel Bryan
Bret Hart
John Cena
Build a Ricardo Rodriguez set:
CM Punk
Big Show
Shawn Michaels
The Miz
Build a John Laurinaitis set:
John Cena
Christian
Sheamus
Sin Cara
Build a Paul Heyman set:
CM Punk
John Cena
Brock Lesnar
Daniel Bryan
Build a Jim Ross set:
CM Punk
Randy Orton
Curtis Axel
Alberto Del Rio
Look at how many repeats (CM Punk, Daniel Bryan) and non-sellers (Alberto Del Rio, Sheamus) are on there.

They already did a WM 15 Taker dude
But yes I would support it.
I buy more flashbacks than I do current guys because most of the current guys are trash

I'd do it, but to buy an entire set it would certainly depend on what I was building.

I will support all Flashback lines.
But the Build-a-Figure concept is terrible, overall. I would rather have suited guys like Paul Bearer, Vince McMahon, etc. in the Basic line than be forced to purchase 4 figures I probably don't want.

In a heartbeat I'd support this line. In my mind, the more flashbacks, the better
