Mattel needs to stop trolling the retro fans whose good will and patronage helped launch this line and make it successful. We want Diesel, Jarrett, Backlund, Lawler, Yankem, MOM, USA Luger. I don't care how many sets you stretch it over- just give us the guys we need! HAKU! BARBARIAN! Yeah, I mean even if it's the whole issue of not being able to move them or appealing to the new, younger crowd. And I understand the whole issue of not being able to sign certain former stars for legal reasons etc. But if they get the green light and if they could just sneak in one of those names per series or every other maybe. At least we are getting legends included though-like all of series 2 and the way they've been sprinkled in to the other sets. At least it hasn't been all new stars only. I would have still bought them simply because they are Hasbro style figures, but it would have really been lacking if we didn't get new versions of the classic ones that some collectors may have missed out on the first time around. Totally agree. I need to see a final version of Flair but the Macho and Warrior I am not big on, especially with that newly invented action. What you're proposing is our best bet, and it's all I ask for. |

Wasn't the consensus that Owen wasn't to be in the orange set but the one after (the black set) or was that just speculation? I thought it was: Diesel (heel), Luger (face USA), Jarrett, Mabel (face), Mo (face) and Booger in the orange series according to the drawings that surfaced? . I'm not sure really, just really always wanted a king of harts Owen (and still do)  I absolutely know what you mean - at the time I never bought a new Hasbro of a guy I already had no matter how good the new figure was except for the Rockers, but a King of Harts Owen Hart would definitely have been one I’d have made an exception for. I think he was my number one “Want” when the line ended, even ahead of Diesel because I was (am) such a Hart fan. If Owen was to be part of the orange series then sadly we’ll never get a complete tribute to that series (or at least not until his kids take-over his estate, and who knows what position they’ll take on such matters), but with the others then maybe there’s a slight chance we’ll see them one glorious day... |

Yes please. We have waited a long long time. Only need to sort things out with Owen harts wife then it's a real possibility of seeing what should have been the orange card set Wasn't the consensus that Owen wasn't to be in the orange set but the one after (the black set) or was that just speculation? I thought it was: Diesel (heel), Luger (face USA), Jarrett, Mabel (face), Mo (face) and Booger in the orange series according to the drawings that surfaced? Drawings were: Diesel USA Luger Mo MOM Mabel MOM Booger Doink later face attire Double J |
