I've noticed that (Basic) series 64, 65, 66, 67 don't have any Legends figures in them... do you think Mattel are slowing down on them? (noooooooo!). Have any more been shown or announced? Thanks.

I'm also holding hope that we get a basic late 80s/early 90s WCW Lex Luger. I figure the more complex Luger attires have been covered in the elite versions,and rightfully so, but the plainer look of Lugers more definitive attires (IMO) would be translated well in the basic series. With no rights to the WCW US title, and barring his short lived robe era, he'd be more cost effective as a basic too. |

Would be great to see some flashback women in the basic line.
Luna
Lita
Trish
Alundra Blayze
Victoria
Ivory
Jacqueline
Terri
Stephanie McMahon (2000 wrestling attire)
Would not need to be Elites, since they dont require any accessories or crazy deco. And 10.99 is a much more agreeable price than 19.99.

It's pretty sad, but denying spots for new guys is pretty bad too. I'm sure the January sets leading up to next year's wrestlemania sets will have some more flashbacks.
I really wish they'd make a big man basic mold so we can get some basic Vader, Dusty, Bam Bam, Earthquake, PN News, etc. Also a beefier singlet top so could get a Papa Shango/Warrior BP, Sheik, Hacksaw's singlet, Hennig and Hart figures that look more realistic(hope the rumored HF BP won't use the same torso between Bret and Anvil), though I guess for most of those, you could just use Taker's torso, and lastly, some basic tassel pants for Diesel/Nash.
I also wish they'd start going into a repaint frenzy and give us easy basic palette swaps of; Razor/Hall, HBK, Flair, Sting, Luger, Bret, Hennig, Jake, Arn, variations of 90s Goldust, Lawler (white, all red,(needs 90s head)black/red, blue/white, gold/black), Macho, Duggan(black/white, singlet), Honky (black/teal, red singlet, black singlet) and several others they already have the parts for.

I don't care about basics.
But now that it's been mentioned, I would like a ddp with a new head so I could do a swap

When the number of figures in a series is over the standard 6 though (series 64, 65, and 66 are all 7 figures - and series 67 is 8 figures!), it would just be nice to slip a Legend or two in there somewhere... Having said that though, there have also been the 4 SummerSlam Heritage figures which were all Legends - and Eddie and Razor from the Wrestlemania Heritage one. |

How is it pretty sad? 2016 has seen the most Legends/Flashbacks released across all three of the major lines in the last five years. |

I would like a serious WWE DDP. Sgt. Slaughter in WM7 attire. Macho Man in SS92 attire. The problem with basic Macho Man's is the boots are too short. Overall he is too tall and looks like he has a pin head. |

Has there ever been a time when more companies have been making wrestling figures at the same time?

Am I the only one who wants a Money Inc. Battle Pack? The idea of a Basic IRS is intriguing to me for some reason.

How is it pretty sad? 2016 has seen the most Legends/Flashbacks released across all three of the major lines in the last five years. Oh it's great, but I want more and Legends contracts aren't always utilized fully before the talent screws up or time runs out, like Hogan, Demolition, Koko, and Kona Crush for instance. Same goes for the current ones, so I don't think too much of either is a good thing. It would work out a lot better if there were two separate lines, but dead horse is dead. Am I the only one who wants a Money Inc. Battle Pack? The idea of a Basic IRS is intriguing to me for some reason. Give him a green and red tie like the Hasbro and M$M in a white/gold suit with the HoF3 head |

The only thing I use basics for are head, arm and boot swaps so hopefully they keep cranking them out because theyre cheaper than elites lol

Pft no mor Warriors or Macho Man, are you actually mental? No lol. Just wanting a better variety of figures instead of 50 Warriors and Savages. We don't need them in every attire they've worn. |
