its a crying shame that RSC can't even give away elite 20 Christian.
That figure was perfection

As a legends collector, I've been really impressed with what we've gotten since the WM30 Elite Bret and HBK. Excellent character choices and mostly the most iconic looks chosen (Barry Windham looking at you...) and the best part is there's still so much for Mattel to do, but it's already become in my eyes the best wrestling figure collection ever. In a few more years Mattel will catch up to Jakks character depth, but with greater emphasis on tag teams it just seems like a matter of time now. They have done a great job with tag teams. We got the Uso's, the Sheild, EL Matador's, Wyatt's, New Age Outlaws, Cody and Goldie. There are just not that many decent tag teams right now. You can see they are trying to give us what we want. If we all keep asking for old tag teams, like the Horsemen, then if they can make it happen with contracts and the like, they will. That has been the best part this past year, they want to know and try to give us what we want. I started collecting just over a year ago and there has yet to be a set where there was not at least 2 -3 guys I wanted, usually more. Heck, we're getting NXT people now. It's just been a great ride and i hope it continues. From the way it looks so fat, it will. I was specifically talking from a legends perspective. Jakks managed to get The Freebirds, Rock n'Roll Express, Russians, Hollywood Blondes and the Midnight Express. The way Mattel is rolling lately I could see them getting some of them in the next 3-4 years. |

My problem is that they spaced him and Edge out by 7 sets...i started collecting at e27 so Edge has been $50+ for a complete figure. Got him w/o shades for 30 and that still sucked. Its rare someone wants half of a tag team, and thats what they were then. Shouldve been released way closer together if not the same set |

My sentiments exactly. What a wonderful time to be a wrestling figure collector. Mattel is really changing the game. Remember how we thought Jakks CS was the GOAT, Mattel blew them away on 1/1/10. My gratitude to Bill and his team.
