Whether the tag line continues or not we would still get Marty and Shawn (for example) they would just be released as a single carded figures like the Road Warriors were

I am waiting for some type of buy one get one 50% off deal at TRU to pick up the piper and orton and Nikolli and Sheik 2 packs. i just can't see paying 30 for both.
The bushwackers no problem but for those pairings its not that big of "want" for me. Although i wante all of the legends lines

You are going to save a lot of money by being patient. Unless a secondary market seller buys up a vast quantity of these sets which I do not see happening. It is quite laughable.

Man some people take these boards serious like they are there life or something. Raven37257 I am sorry, for you. It is funny how you perceive my response to be negative. However, if you want to be negative, I can play that game. The board reads the likes of your whining about information too much. I am only pointing out the obvious. You asked an irrational question and you received a rational response. I am sorry for you because you obviously cannot provide any substantive comments/information/direction to the community. I am not an avid poster but I can be when I see ignorant questions/comments posted. Worry less about me and more about yourself. Have a nice day! I confirmed Harvey Whimplemen , Brooklyn Brawler and Tatanka all for the legends line on different occasions . I do offer alot to this "community" I have sent board memebers free wrestling figure accessories and asked for nothing in return, no ref's , money or acknowledgment. Everytime I meet a wrestler I ask them the stupidest question an adult can ask another adult "Are you getting a Mattel legends figure made?" How could I not see your remark to my post (which by the way had no point and was as useless as posting nothing) as slander towards me. You should remember this rule I'm sure your Mommy told you when you were a younger antagonist: "If you don't have anything nice to say , than don't say anything at all". You have a nice day.

Antagonism? My mommy? lol Lets stay on topic going forward. No need to ruin this thread with petty back and forth argumentative banter which does not pertain to the main topic of discussion. Good luck.

That's strange, in San Jose the 2 TRUs I went to sold out of Sheik/ Volkoff and they had to open up a new case to get me one. The one that really peg warms is the bush wackers, I bet those guys will be there longer than the highlanders that are still cloggin the clearance area.

In another post he replied and confirmed that there is only 4 figures per set moving forward after series 4. Why won't he post here and clear some of this tag team stuff up? There are a myriad of reasons why he is not posting here. Maybe he has a life. Maybe he does not lurk the board 24/7. Maybe he has a lot of work to do. Maybe he does not know. Maybe he knows and is not allowed to divulge the information. Give the guy a break. We should be grateful Bill posts at all. I am sure Bill will clarify the question in due time. Be patient. Have to agree with Raven here. One of the main reasons corporate reps DON'T post is that they can't answer the questions posed at the forums. After reading a lot of this thread, it seems Mattel has gone from Hero to Zero, because of a line-up production change. Not every line-up is going to be a home-run. Comparing how Jakks did it almost ten years ago to how Mattel is doing it today is irrelevant. The Global Economy is different as are consumer spending habits and raw costs. Give Mattel a fair comparison and keep the above in mind and you'll be happy

Personally, I thought the character selection was terrible to test the overall demand of the two-pack line. I thought it was strange that they packed singles guys like Piper, Orton, Iron Sheik and Volkov as 2-pks - while obvious tag-team/2-pk guys like LOD and Demolition get singles releases(!?), lol. Still, any Legends releases are alright by me.

The Legends 2 Packs aren't selling here either. There is still 2 pegs worth from the original stocking and a brand new sealed box up top. Personally, I thought the character selection was terrible to test the overall demand of the two-pack line. I agree. It mostly consisted of shelfwarmers. Series 1 2-packs should have looked more like: - The Rockers - Von Erichs - Legion of Doom

yeah in my mind its not even a question that if The Rockers Von Erich's and LOD were in Legends 2 Pack series 1 that they would sell like crazy

Didn't the little place cards at SDCC say series 2 was scheduled for Spring of 2011? In toy terms that could be anywhere from very late Dec. to Feb.

Nikolai Volkoff & the Iron Sheik are one of the greatest, and most well-known tag teams in WWE/F history.
