So these are gonna sell but Legends wont? Riiiiiiight Correction: Legends didn't. There's no speculation there, it already happened. Legends bombed hard. Not denying that but Flex Force has flopped, Rumblers has flopped its only a matter of time before Slammers flop. All of these have been found at second hand stores like Big Lots...Just like Legends was. Strikers wont be any different. Why even bother?

I don't know what these are, but with the exception of Kane that is identical to the Basic/Elite one on his current figures, the rest of the scans look MUCH BETTER than anything we have gotten.
If these figures are the same size as Elites/Basics and we don't get better scans until then, I'll be sure to buy these just for head swaps.

Mattel's designers (and/or their bosses) have business relationships with the buyers for Kmart, Toys R Us, etc. The buyers for those chains clearly liked the concept of Strikers enough to order them, if they're being produced. Mattel is a business that profits from companies ordering their toys. Companies are ordering Strikers.

what is the world of collecting coming to? These are likely going to be aimed at kids, not collectors, so this shouldn't affect the "world of collecting."

The reason i said this was because i noticed some people were buying them for the belts and the heads i mean they still have to spend money were they could just use the money to buy a elite basic or battle pack.

If these are 12" and cheap like Hasbro's titan series, this could be a good thing. I just hope that if they are, they're in closed boxes because those giant accessories would be theft bait.

12 inches is the rumored size on these. I might be looking to far into this, but if these are going to be 12 inches, imagine the size of the ring they will make to go with them.

Legends didn't bomb - it's just that Mattel wanted to sell more figures than people wanted to buy. Jakks had a Legends line that lasted for 28 waves plus 2-packs plus Deluxe figures, but Mattel can't get it right? Since they are the biggest toy company, they want to sell the most toys - that's why so many of their lines clog the pegs, they just want to sell too damn many figures.

It is another flex force line probably...... So disappointing that mattel is bringing these back! Now toys r us is gonna probably stop selling regular elites and basics to take these in and toys r us exclusives.....

Judging from the articulation in Punk's upper legs it looks like you squeeze his legs together and his arms will move up and down.
