Most of the flashbacks sell poorly if they aren't household names or people still active. So most of the one you listed will sell the same if not worse as Malenko.
Me personally, I'm elated. I was a WCW kid and I still love them. Need more, if you ask me, in figure form.

Anyone who says Malenko is a waste doesn't love wrestling

Nope. Getting Malenko is a sign that Mattel could start putting out some flashback mid-card talent...which we need more of in our collections.

I'd like the characters you brought up too, but Malenko is a want for a lot of people and they'll probably(being cynical) only make around 2-3 versions of him, max. It's nothing to get upset about .

Dean knows one less hold than Jericho.

Malenko was awesome, and I'm pumped for this figure. It isn't ever a waste to get a brand new face in this line. Try to remember that the guys that YOU would rather have may not be options at the moment. Bill seems to be getting us who he can, as fast as he can. Patience.

I'm stoked about Malenko. He's a great WCW addition and we definitely need more WCW guys. Unfortunately, there's not many others to go with him. Especially with how segregated weight classes and stars were in WCW. All poor Dean has to wrestle is E32 Mysterio until HOF Eddie drops.

I think Malenko would of been better off thrown in a set with multiple flashbacks like E38 or something like that. It's not a great choice in a one flashback series I think especially when you consider the series before you are getting a repeat DDP.

Malenko is a big want. Now we need a Jericho from the WCW Cruiserweight division. Maybe a Ultimo Dragon too. I think Malenko is going to warm like E13 Edge did. But, I also think Malenko is a set-up figure to WCW Y2J. Possibly sooner than later. OPs might now want Malenko now, but when that Jericho figure is released, they are going to wish they had!

If you like him then it's not wasted, if you don't then yes, it may seem wasted. This game is all about personal preference. Sometimes you get guys you don't like, it's easy, just do t buy it

You ungrateful , Dean is the prefect choice and an unexpected flashback chosen mattel. There's no such thing as a wasted spot unless that's you.

Dean Malenko isn't a wasted spot but Magnum T.A. is? That still pisses me off that they let his contract run out before releasing that figure.
