Big Cass Chris JerichoEnzo Amore John Cena #2 Kalisto Kurt AngleRandy Orton Shawn MichaelsSheamusThe Rock #2 Undertaker #2 The names in bold will probably end up being Series 7 since those four are pictured on the back of the Retro Ring packaging. Enzo will never see the light of day. I don't know where the others stand for the time being, but I wouldn't rule out any current roster names or repaints of existing figures in this line. Rhythm & Blues Enzo.

I've been buying all them so far, but if they don't end up putting out more legends probably going to be the end of this line for me, especially if the prices keep going up for them.

I'm only buying legends at this point. I toyed with the idea of buying everything to be complete, but by the time series 3 hit retail we had seen the next several sets of figures so I decided then already not to bother. If it were more more heavy on legends I would buy everything, but not if were only getting one out of each wave. I've got Taker and Warrior from S1, all of S2, and Goldberg, Flair and Macho so far. Maybe if demand really is legends we should show them by not touching the current guys.

Really hope Mattel takes a hard look at this line and recalibrates their approach. There is tremendous potenial here, tapping into the 30-40 year olds that crave for anything that ties back into the Hasbro days. (ME)
I understand that they might not want to go mainstream with remakes of niche figures like Diesel and other orange card rumored figs. That said, how hard would it be to pop an already existing Nash Mattel head on a plastic body and sell it as an exclusive on RSC?
The potential with this line is truly UNLIMITED and its a fairly low risk play for Mattel.

Maybe if demand really is legends we should show them by not touching the current guys. They need to start using more of the Hasbro molds as well and get more variety. Already having doubles is really off putting as well and Sting with Warrior are my all time favorites. If it were surfer Sting I would be happy but a simple wolf-pac repaint is just lazy, especially with the complete lack of effort for Sting in the main lines.

Hopefully they rework the HBK one and give us a Mania 26 version with white hat and white coat on. Want to see that Angle and Jericho as well. Really in the future they should consider doing legends like Goldust, Vader, DDP, King Booker, Dudley Boys, Hardy Boys, Edge, Christian, Stephanie, Vince, nWo Nash and Hall, Heenan, Jimmy Hart, Jake Roberts heel flame tights, Paul Bearer, Boogeyman, Older Taker short hair figure among others

If I were a betting man, I would say that we get at least one more release before the end of the year UNLESS series 6 gets delayed.
I also expect to see the following at SDCC:
Announcement of 2-3 more waves, some accessories, maybe an alternate ring, and a sliver of a chance that we see some sort of add on like a cage or accessory pack. I'm not counting on those things but I really won't be shocked if it all comes true.

If these is even remotely close to accurate I will be pleased.
