I honestly think sometimes the people that are down on a figure maybe weren't watching during that timeframe. I mean I know how huge Demolition was at the time. Then, the heel turn and addition to Crush was one of the bigger storylines of the Spring/Summer of 90. If they make Ax & Smash, Crush is a great addition to anyone collection golden age figures.

As his pre-order was sold out in less than a day, I would say a LOT of people are going to buy him.

Demolition Crush is an easy no for me, as were Demolition Ax and Smash. I could never get past the fact that they looked like Wall Street business types on a Saturday night quest to find a dominatrix who would put a ball gag and dog collar on them. Worst ring attire ever imho. The only Crush figures I might get would be either attitude era NOD/DOA Crush or a Kronik Bryan Adams if a Kronik Bryan Clark was made as well. Having said that, I don't think it is a wasted spot as the demand is high from all the Demolition fans. Obviously it was the right choice for Mattel as Crush went from pre to back order super fast. It is just a matter of time now before people start clamoring for a Mr. Fuji figure in suit, hat, and face paint to complete the stable. I love this post! I was 8 or 9 when Demolition came around and me being a NWA kid at the time I thought they looked like a joke and a blatant rip off of the Road Warriors, but I ended up loving them anyway. But I always thought there was something off about their attire! Funny $hit And please down the road give us Fuji!

If Mattel made as many Demolition as they've made Cena id be so happy.
Also I think it's as dumb as possible that Crush comes 1 to a case but Bryan comes two to a case. Bryan is a big time shelf warmer, why pack two of him? Why not two of Crush the new figure?

Yes, to complete Demolition. Mattel said if Demo Crush sells good, they might consider Kona or Evil before the contract expires.
Don't forget there are many contracts expiring sometime in 2015 & rather see Mattel release those flashbacks than release their new contracted Legends: JYD, Magnum, LOD (red & black!), Dusty (NWA), Doink (good & evil), Windham, Faarooq (NOD & APA), Snuka (barefoot), Muraco, One Man Gang, Savio & Tito. If not release, I hope they renew their contracts.

Voted no, but I don't think it's a waste of a spot. I started watching in 94/95 so a little before my time. I vaguely remember kona Krush and jailbird crush from NOD an DOA.

If not release, I hope they renew their contracts. I don't know whether the contracts of ALL those guys expire this year... if so (with up to series 29 confirmed) that would only leave one or two more sets for them to be released in... And wouldn't we have had some in E28 and E29 too (instead of just the one FB)?

I would love to have them even as basics. Better than nothing

I will for sure, but I was never a huge fan. Personally, I think adding Crush to Demolition was the final nail in the coffin of my favorite tag team ever.

Without a question I am preordering (or in this case back-ordering) him. He's from my formative years of watching wrestling (1985-1993) and was a member of one of my favorite Tag Teams of all time (albeit in the period that they were relegated to more of a jobber tag team) I remember seeing him with Ax and Smash vs. Warrior and LOD at a houseshow as a kid too. So, I'm very excited for Crush.

if you posted the same poll but with Daniel bryan or bray wyatt.. you would get just as many 'waste of a spot' votes from flashback collectors... but its good to see the overwhelming response for crush, he deserves a figure as hes a legend in wrestling
