I would prefer that Mattel would take this route, so we can get more legends. I am a flashback collector and they are the only figures I buy and it kinda sucks when you don't have many legends. But I do not see Mattel doing this!

personally, yes. But looking at it practically, it's fine as is.

Honestly, no. I enjoy buying all of the Flasbacks and the way they're releasing them we're getting a good mixture of different eras. If they went to a more regular line I know they would fill it with Attitude Era stuff and I dont want a collection full of that nor could I afford to just buy stuff I dont want. This, I enjoy just getting a couple of figs once and a while they are not cheap.

I wouldn't mind if it happened although the amount we are getting now is more than I thought we would be getting.

Yes, but I would only want the at most every 3 months. I feel like if they were more often it would be over kill...

Every other basic series and half case Legends/Current Roster 2 packs(2 Legends, 1 chase Legend, 2 Currents, 1 chase Current) would be sweet.
As long as they keep it cheap and don't release >$20 figures, I reckon it'd work this time around.

I gotta tell you guys...I would even enjoy Legends in the basic line! We have had Savage, Booker T, Ultimate Warrior and Eddie...Oh and Stone cold! I would love more! I collect the basic line too.

Legends are wanted Mattel!
just look at the difference between regualr Mattel board and the Mattel suggestion board. the regular is always new pick ups, or trouble with stores or my collection pics, etc. just boring stuff.
and yet the suggestion board is FILLED with Legends requests in one way or another. more than half the page. WHY do us Legend collectors get the shaft so much? you'd have an easier time finding organs on the black market then getting Mattel to make a few more 80's/early 90's legends.
elite23 is nice with another Savage & Taker, then we go to elite 24 with ONLY Trish as a flashback? THATS why I want a flashback only line. if we could rely on at least 1 80's/90's guy per set thatd be one thing. but to have elite sets with zero of them or only a attitude era guys SUCKS! Why do flashbacks go on back order 1st at RSC? why are they sold out at all stores 1st? why do they sell for much more on ebay after they are no longer at retail? BECAUSE THEY ARE Popular and fans are intop again and buying. I'd have bought EVERY LEGEND x2 that I listed AND least 60 others if they were made. I've never seen anyone or any buisness give up that easy. OK SO LEGENDS DIDNT SELL AT !ST. people were burned out from jakks, economy was MUCH WORSE, outfits on figs were questionable (ecp the 2-packs = UGH), and stores got flooded with not 1, not 2, not 3, but my walmart got FOUR cases of legends 1 & 2. 1 two sets sold immediatly, 2nd two cases ended up on clearance, except for Road warriors. they were selling just not at the pace of current superstars, so lets just scrap the line altogether. Dont try to re-vamp it or wait to try again. we got that god awlful Matty site figures deal, with shipping it made the figs over $30. YEAH thats gonna save the line. so when $30 figs dont sell, that our fault aain, and we are down to MAYBE one 80's/90's fig per elite set.
PLEASE Mattel, TRY again! Your Mattel for cryin out loud.
what do we have to do to get a Big John Studd, Flair, Razor, Sid, Neidhart, Bulldogs, LOD, Luger, Qauke, Gang, JYD, Snuka in reg outfit, Slaughter in reg outfit, Santana, Crush, Hercules, etc, etc, etc. These are big names from old school wrestling.
Flashback only series = 4 figs, every 3 months. TRY it it will work this time. 2 current/attitude era guys and 2 80's/90's guys per set. AND ONLY 1 CASE per store.

and before someones says I like it just he way it is, do you collect ONLY legend/flashback figs? if you do you cannot be happy with the way this is. only ones ok or happy with it collect current figs as well. so they are buying figs and COLLECTING. us legends only collectors, one elite fig comes out, MAYBE a basic. you buy both and collecting is over for 3-4 months. how exciting is that?

Nope, I'm perfectly fine with not having anymore legends in my current figure line. It's nice every once in awhile when they sprinkle a basic legends in here and there to add a new character, but I'd much prefer they stick with the current roster. It's not that I don't love old school wrestling as much as the next guy, but I personally feel the new guys need their figures now. The old legends had there chance with figures and a good majority got a figure made somewhere in the past whether it be in the LJN, Hasbro, or Jakks line.

Nah. I'd only want a few people (Luna Vachon, Crash Holly, and a couple other Diva's). I'd rather just stick with the main roster. I actually get a little irritated with Flashbacks in the Elite line just because I'd rather see people on the roster who don't have figures yet get put in those lines instead.

Flashback only line benefits everyone. if you dont like the figs or want any you dont have to buy, and no space is taken up on the elite line. and if there happens to be flashback you like go ahead and grab one. win win for everyone.

I love Legends too but one of the reasons the flashbacks are hard to find is because they usually are only in one of the two cases and only have one figure in the case.
