I only collect golden age and mostly wrestlers that were in the 85-89 era. So the Coliseum Collection is right up my alley. I couldn’t care less if a Sting or Steiner brother ever gets released. I’m the most excited for Captain Lou over anybody this year. I’m hoping we get some new blood - Jesse Ventura, Adrian Adonis, Dynamite Kid, Mr. Fuji, Ken Patera, Hercules and some older redos like King Kong Bundy and Hillbilly Jim.

I want all of them - I hope this line goes very deep. I’d even buy an Arcidi SD Jones pack.
I hope the next pack is Adonis and Jesse Ventura but realistically I could Sheik and Volkoff and I imagine they would be incredible in ultimate form.

Hard to tell from the early photos but that m$m head scan looks incredible. How is it possible to get some so great and then swing and miss on Bret so bad?

What are these attires based on? The LJN figures. If you’re asking if/when they wore these specific attires though, I don’t know. 1985 wrestling classic for Steamboat and Dibiase wore that a lot when he first started in the WWF. Also on the cover of a WWF magazine in 1988.

Perfect.
Absolutely love these. This is EXACTLY what this line should be. Ultimate versions of the LJN figures. So excited for these.

Okay, I know someone HAD to have asked before but I’m going to now, why the HELL didn’t they put Hart Foundation in their Heel ‘86-‘88 attires like the original LJNs were? Outside of the odd legends figure this is the only line I collect. I have been wondering that myself. The head scans on Bret are garbage and the attires are off. I wish they were in the red pants like the original LJN poster. Easy pass today. I’m hoping for something good next wave.

One of my top wants for coliseum collection, would have much preferred Volkoff and Sheik or Beefcake and Valentine over the Hart Foundation.
He needs his USSR shirt but also a larger torso and legs. His figures have all been undersized so far.

I’d buy them all, it’s the only era of wrestling I watched religiously and still watch to this day.

Other.
The one I want the most is the alt white 1985 attire with the American made shirt.

Honestly don’t have any interest in this Hart Foundation set. I want them in all pink or black and blue (which would make cool variants in a Legends set) or a 1990 version with jackets. Me too, I was all in on this line but now my interest is waning and this is the first set I’m skipping. First Piper comes in blue and not in LJN red tights, then Hart Foundation comes in an attire from 88 and one that we already have. Just give us a younger Bret scan, shorter hair and put them in the LJN poster red attire and call it a day. I’m hoping for something more “LJN” for the next set.

Slick Mr. Fuji (using the Jakks one as a stand-in) Johnny V Kim Chee This is great. I’d add a younger scan bearded 80s Jimmy Hart too.

They still need to do a Million Dollar Corporation version. And the 80s Russian heel probably should be redone. Maybe include the sweatshirt this time & convince WWE that no one is gonna be offended by seeing the letters USSR. This right here. He is perfect for the coliseum collection and give us his ussr turtleneck. I collected all the LJNs back in the day and when I think of that time period I think of guys like him, sheik, jyd, Studd etc. part of the reason I’m so annoyed with the hart foundation selection. At least put them in red tights to be of that era. Easy pass for me.

• JYD from Elite flashbacks (if he is still under a deal) Would love this. They could add his light blue 80s shirt this time

That Captain Lou figure is a masterpiece. Can’t wait to get it.
Glad there were able to get rights to the shirt.

I’m sure I’m in the minority, but I would say the Top 5 Priorities for WWE/Mattel should be Coliseum Collection additions. After Hart Foundation, based on who I think is still available, let’s get Studd, Bigelow, Beefcake, Valentine, and Iron Sheik! And, of course, get Savage re-signed and fast-track a Coliseum Collection figure of him! Now THAT would be a great year! I’m with you, getting some first time in the line legends in the coliseum line is pretty much all I care about. It would be great to see classic Steiners or Cm Punk for those who want them but I have zero interest.

That Piper is great and all but George is the reason I’m buying this set. He is amazing.
