BAF Mean Gene is an ok idea I guess but most people, like myself, would much rather have an elite figure release with packaging I'm sure.

Who said we can't talk about the nWo/lWo 4 pack? Has anyone officially said we cant or is it one of those strange rumour things? It was sold legally in shops so its fair game? Can't trade in Classifieds.

Yeah... I'm just going to let this one go. If Bill finds a way to get him into the line down the road then I'll definitely buy it. This seems like the PB situation all over again. The BAF concept can suck it.

Mattel reminds me of an old girlfriend.. I love her at times , and yet hate her also. The fact we waited over 1 year to get these and they never came out , is almost ridiculous. only to show up in Australia again.

Other than Amazon Andre, Mean Gene was the figure I was most looking forward to acquiring. Hoping the figure somehow finds its way to the US.

Wow! At least they're somewhere. I'd buy them all and then throw them all away except x-pac and Mean Gene of course. I'm dying to see these You just throw away figures? The ? Yes.

I hate that they've made the BAF for basics now. I have no desire for three of those figures and I'm not buying them just to get a mean gene. Ugh.

The worst part sbout b.a.f is that it really kicks flashback collectors right in the nuts.
Paul bearer... cost me a ton of money, Gene will as well...
B.a.f would be so much cooler if it were with 4 figures i wanted, all elite flashbacks from the golden era
Marvel legends usually do the b.a.f right, you buy the x men and build a juggernaut, makes sense, your already buying the x men, now you have to buy the 2 or 3 figures you werent planning on getting to build the juggernaut whos a part of the x men universe

Even their stupid multi verse ones suck. Who wants a ing batgun? Just copy hasbro. Not that hard.

Just bizarre. forum.wrestlingfigs.com/post/8092639Yeah its banned in classifies but never understood why. Its not like the Series 1 figure we're not allowed to speak about. I don't think the set was stolen and redistributed illegally. It appears to be a case where Target didn't want them so Mattel found a chain overseas to sell them.

Build Paul Bearer then give us Taker, Mankind, Vader, and Kane. Build Gene then give us Piper, Savage, Hillbilly Jim, and Jake. BAF is the perfect series to build managers. Bobby Heenan: Hercules, Brawler, Rude, Haku. Jimmy Hart: HTM, Hart Foundation, Canadian Earthquake. Classy Freddie Blassie: Sheik, Volkoff, Bundy, Steele. etc.

From that post by Chicago it appears it shouldn't have been made available to Oz stores in the first place? That's fair enough, but why cant Mattel/Bill just simply explain it properly other wise it just looks stupid? I'll never understand the cloaks and daggers and secrecy over ******* toys!
