When do we find out this years hall of famers? It's got to be soon yea? i imagine that Macho will be inducted, and that MDT got a heads up about it. I can't fathom that they'd do a WCW Macho as a normal Flashback. it has to be for HOF series 2. Maybe it has a WCW theme, because i bet Eddie guerrero's in that set too MDT already confirmed WCW Macho as a regular flashback.

That's the first time ive ever seen these they came out around the time between Legends Series 2 and 3 I think. were K-Mart exclusives,and sold very,very poorly. they ordered so many, and they pegwarmed so badly,that many of us believe to this day the HOF line killed the Legends line simply cause they weren't selling. of course the big difference now is the current line at least takes previously released figures and puts them in different, much requested attires. the K-Mart series was straight up repaints, only with a different oval logo in the corner and a cardboard cutout HOF plaque. the only people who bought them were the completists, cause you were basically being asked to buy the exact same figure you just bought a little while ago.

Yep, and that wasn't the collectors fault like everyone seems to think...
I mean you really have to put that on Mattel, but that's really the only big mistake that they've made since acquiring the license.

when we first heard of the original hall of fame set I thought for sure based on who was included we were about to get the repaints we all wanted.
