-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So, I know a lot of you were upset about the Legends line being limited. Only having one a month isn't nearly enough for us old timers who love collecting the wrestlers that we grew up watching.
Mattel was gracious enough to give us at least one flashback per set of elites. So, since we're already getting a flashback per set, why not just package the flashbacks in the Legends packaging? Don't you think The Big Boss Man in the Legends package would of looked much cooler? I for one am a huge fan of the Legends packaging.
I know most of you either don't care about the Legends line or don't collect MOC, but for us that do, I want to see my old favorites in the Legends packaging.
Your thoughts?

Likely done for marketing. Legends may have been a turn off for young buyers. Flashback sounds "hipper" and keeps the legends moniker for online specials.

I think it's a pretty good idea to package more Flashbacks per Elite set.

Probably because the packaging needs to be uniform to fit into the cases. If they make the Flashbacks on Legends cards they'd be larger than the Elite cards...so they'd have to make the cases bigger to fit them

At least we still get legends in the flashbacks that we would never have got in the legends line (Edge, Booker T, Kane, Papa Shango).

what annoys me is when the put people who are already in the legends line twice in a flashback.

I don't really mind to be honest. Doesn't make a difference they're still legends imo. Wouldn't it also cost them more to produce different boxes in the same assortment?
