Especially the Doom or an Acolytes w/Bradshaw. Oh you guys and your obscure references. LOL Figures like that are the reason Legends line failed. Legends failed because of overproduction. Legends 1 & 2 were out at the same exact time as the HOF set which was nothing more than L1 & L2 figure in a new box. They should have at least been attire variations. But as straight rereleases they just competed with each other. But not only that they were already being produced in to high of quantities before the exclusive HOF was added to the mix. TRU's Legends 2-Packs my TRU had 2 shipment. The first shipment had 30 cases in it. The second shipment had at least 25 more case. That is 55 cases of the same 3 sets. That was 110 sets each of Piper/Orton, Bushwackers & Volkoff/Shiek. While with Jakks CSTT they never received more than 3 cases of any CSTT series. So that was only 18 sets of any CSTT set. Evrntually my store did sell every Legends 2-Pack, but if Mattel didn't produce the Legends line in the quantities they do Barbie and Hot Wheels Legends would still be alive today.

They should bring the Legends line back and just do it right this time. A Ron Simmons box set of all Ron Simmons' gimmicks would sell like hotcakes, man.
1. NWA Ron Simmons 2. Doom Ron Simmons 3. WCW Champ Ron Simmons 4. Penis hat Ron Simmons 5. NOD Ron Simmons 6. Acolyte Ron Simmons 7. APA Ron Simmons 8. DAMN! Simmons

Glad to see a Doom reference before a D*mn reference. I asked Ron Simmons and Teddy Long individually about a Doom pack about 6 years ago when I was getting autographs at the hotel they were staying at and they both said it would never happen. They made it seem like it was an issue with Butch Reed. Sad really as I loved them in wcw esp when they wore the black masks and were feuding w the steiners. They could get around Butch by just making the masked versions of Doom. Since they were just called Doom #1 and Doom #2 interchangeably, you just package two Simmons figures and release them in a 3 pack with Nancy Benoit.

I respect the hell out of Farooq but the most memorable thing he's done since I became a fan 15 years ago was say "Damn." Probably the reason why Mattel hasn't made him yet.
