This is one of those weird situations for me where I feel that it's a solid set, but I don't have a strong interest in any of the figures. Maybe the LOD if I just happen to have the extra money and I find them at retail and they look amazing, but that's about it. Also, why is there a Ryback in an elite set at this point? I don't have anything against him as a performer, but we had one not too long ago and he's been a jobbing mid-carder for a bit now and it doesn't look like that will be changing anytime soon. His figures must be selling really well to keep making so many of him

I just hope LOD is from their look in 1997 (No please for the love of god, not LOD2000) and Luger will come with the look from "Made in the USA" gimmick in mid-93, the one where he was wearing a gown in his WCW days will be nice too. What are you talking about? 97? That's a good thing they had Black and Red...With Red Boots. 2000 Means just that they wore those in 1999 I think.

btw those were not kickpads on their wm14 ( LOD 2000) gear.. it was ugly made one month earlierhard plastic painted.... any way its gotta be red shoulder pads.. the only possibilities that would P me off would be 2 things : if you recall when LOD first entered the WWF even before their first ppv appearance ( summerslam 90) they were different tights, just plain black with one small creature print on the side.. they were them a few more times including a house show at msg against DEMOLITION..... they were horrible tights... PLUS along with the entrance shoulder pads, i would LOVE the entrance wrist gauntlets w/ spikes and the knee & shin pads with spikes which of course they always removed for those of you who are younger!.... OHHHHH and another HUGE thing i would HATE would be if HAWK was given his "other"WWF face paint... i know he wore a few different styles in nwa, but this one is different it is similiar to the style used in Legends wave one but different color and i HATED IT... the black spiral on his right side and red on his left is ICONIC... Animal just altered the color of the backround of the insect on his forehead!!.... these two are long overdue... and SADLY would have had such a GREATER WWF run if HAWK wasn't a HUGE drug abuser... hate saying it, but it should be mentioned, when such amazing talent is wasted.... Remember how great HAWK could hit a drop kick for a man his size, WEEEELLLLLLLL!!!!! summerslam 92 gold would OK, years after we get red... i say we get red or we riot!! ( jk no violence)

This: is 100% exactly how LOD should be. this exact attire, those exact facepaints. everything here is THE single most iconic & well known look of their career. if we happened to get shiny classic tag belts it would be an amazing bonus. but all Mattel needs to do for LOD is look at that above picture and replicate. they have ALL the parts, they have ALL the capabilities....they can re-use the Legends S1 headscan, no problem there. ill be OK if they don't include a light gray tape strap on their right arms like in that picture, but everything else should be exactly as is.

Animal needs a new scan. The L1 version has a full beard but Animal pretty much always stuck with the handlebar stashe.

Seems to be correct, as I've seen several reports saying the same.

Hawk with tongue sticking out would be awesome, classic tag belts would be awesome. Red Legion Of Doom would be awesome. That is all.

( jk no violence) I don't think I have ever been in more agreement over a single post since I joined this board years ago. It HAS to be this LOD, it is an absolute MUST! If these sell extremely well, then maybe they can do the '97 attire or LOD 2000 or whatever, but this is how they've been replicated in video games, like Legends of Wrestlemania, and how they appear in most popular representations of the team. Plus, they were WWF tag champions in this look. We got NWA Road Warriors, which I like more and more each time I hold them in my hands, but these are my #1 most wanted tag team. I really hope Mattel gives us this version, then I can start bugging people for the Steiner Brothers.
