Not to start a 1000 new posts about the Legends fiasco.
My question is IF (hypothetical if) Mattel decides to kill the Legends line, would you go back and get the Legends you passed up on for whatever reason?
A lot of people claim they didn't get Sgt Slaughter, LOD or Rick Rude, etc because they were holding out on a more recognizable attire. What if that recognizable attire is never made does that change you wants?

I haven't passed any up that I "kind of" wanted, so I'd have to say no. The Rock is the only one I'd consider getting, and I haven't really passed it up ever because I've never found it.

If Mattel discontinues Legends, *unless* Legends continue to show up in other lines, unfortunately, I'll have already bought my last Mattel figure.  |

I never bought Jakks figures because I would expect a wrestling action figure to perform the most basic of wrestling moves like a boston crab (try doing that with thunder thigh RAs). Mattel's Legends line brought me back into wrestling toys from my LJN/Hasbro/Galoob days - that's almost 2 decades!!!! If they cancel Legends, then I've got nothing to collect, so I'm out too. |

ive collected most of them already, if they quit the line i would have nothing left to collect, im not sure if id even keep my collection as it would be very incomplete. No i wouldnt buy any of the figures i passed on. i initially passed on LOD slaughter bulldog and snuka to wait for the more iconic attires but i have caved in and bought them anyhow , except for snuka , cuz he sucks

Ive gotten all the legends that are out right now that I wanted. I might be pushed to pick up 1 or 2 of the others if the price was better. Really right now of the upcoming legends the ones I really want are Eddie, BamBam, and Texas Tornado

I would sell what I have and go back and get the last few Jakks Classics that I didnt get. Not that I like Jakks better cause they look awful compared to the Mattel Legends but I dont want a half ass collection

I'd probably get Elites on sale and make customs using Jakks heads and Ralph clothing. Kinda regretting selling off the Jakks collection now though...

As others are saying, if Legends ends, so does my money going to Mattel. If Legends ends, I'm done with Mattel altogether, to be honest. They've killed too many of my favorite lines due to poor management (then have the gall and audacity to turn around and blame US). So, to me....nail in the coffin.

I will never give Mattel another dime. There are plenty of other wrestling figures for me to buy. I can't believe they screwed this up. Maybe if they had some one who actually watched wrestling their whole life on their team we wouldn't be having this conversation.
