Cannot wait for Blue Meanie! Been waiting far too long for an action figure of him!

I have no problem with ecw guys, but some of these guys just aren't big names. Obviously, the biggest ecw names got scooped up by wwe, wcw and tna and have had figures, so if you're an ecw guy that's never had a figure, there's a reason for it. It's because you're not that good and not a big name legend. Depending on how they look, I'll probably be getting all of the guys announced thus far, but I can see a lot of people passing. If this company has the opportunity to make a figure of a bonafide big name legend like a Pedro morales, who's never had a figure, that would be a much better signing IMO. I don't know how much these guys are getting paid and perhaps some have the mentality that, it's just free money that they don't have to do anything for and therefor will accept even a very small amount. Justin credible was working at target not long ago and he's probably made more in his career that Mikey whipwreck, new jack and blue meanie combined, so all these guys probably need any money they can get. Point is, anyone doing well financially or that was an actual big star might value the use of their likeness at a price point that is out of this company's ball park and thus that could be the reason why we're not seeing a variety of talent signed.

I see more of a focus on the indy line more than the legends line anyways. I don't think financial has anything to do with it when it comes to guys like the young bucks or hawkins who probably still has WWE royalty coming in. Plus the names for legends are all characters with pretty distinct looks. Like I said its better than starting with older guys that are just generic bodies and tights. We all want more figures like I said they're targeting the 18-34 it seems with ECW era people. I say let that happen before some of the bland figures get made. |

The Kevn Steen and Young Bucks figures are going to sell out immediately.

New Jack hasn't had a figure since 2000 Blue Meanie has never had a figure That is one reason why I like this Legends concept. But, ECW has plenty of guys who are big names that could get in this line. Shane Douglas, Raven, Tommy Dreamer, Taz, Sabu, Stevie Richards, Too Cold Scorpio, Pitbulls, Terry Funk, Mike Awesome, Super Crazy, Tajiri, Rob Van Dam, Bill Alfanso, Jerry Lynn, Dudleys Boys, Psicosis ( masked), Rey Mysterio, Juventud Guerrero, Chris Candido... Come on, sone if these guys haven't had figures in 15 years, sone never at all. I wonder if they can get rights to the ECw titles? |

Another ECW name?? Not that he isn't deserving but come on, mix it up a little, we need some WCW/NWO era guys as well please.
Guys like La Parka, Alex Wright, Disco Inferno, Chris Kanyon, Norman Smiley, Vampiro, Psicosis... those are the kind of names I'm waiting to hear.
There's also guys like Bryan Clark and Big Vito who have been quite outspoken in their dislike of WWE, they would be prime candidates for this line IMO.

Parka is a Mexican talent and they said international rights can be tricky. Norman Smiley is a NXT trainer. Vampiro is in Lucha Underground. Bryan Clark was done as Adam Bomb. Psicosis already was a RA shelfwarmer. None of those guys are very likely. The only guy besides Parka that would be cool there is Disco. |

Blue Meanie is kinda cool but I feel like they should try to get a big name to make a splash

I'm curious what big name you think would be willing to accept the same amount as say Blue Meanie.

What the Young Bucks/Omega consider good money may differ from what 2 Cold may consider to be good money.

That goes back to the Cabana situation though. The company has said the deal is set up fairly and they will not give preferential treatment like extra money. They want to keep it fair for everyone. The Young Bucks are the hottest thing going so is Bullet Club. I would assume its good money to land people like that.
