No Koko in E44 it is true. I'm as disappointed as you as I wanted a Mattel Koko and Frankie. The Elite Legends line is not a relaunch of the Legends line. Undertaker, Michaels, Ultimate Warrior and Kamala are reissues in new packaging (Elite Flashback). Jericho is a new deco and Magnum is new, sorta.. Elite line will continue to have Flashbacks in it. Good ones in my opinion. He calls it "the elite legends line". Not a relaunch of the legends line, but it still is a line. I need to know more |

I need to know more yea but i think he meant it may be a 1 off thing.. we will know more in a month . hopefully we get a good Q&A in at Con. Id like to just scrap the HOF line and move fwd. with this line in every retail chain. lol.. |

A line of rereleases doesn't bother me as much as others. Mankind, Cactus Jack, The Rockers, E12 Kane and Yokozuna could be rereleased. Its not like they are ever going to be irrelevant like current roster guys (Mizdow, Daniel Bryan, Adam Rose).

Glad to hear it's not a relaunch of the legends line. Koko was bad news. Just sucks they didn't sneak him in the line sooner. Don't change the facts though. Mattel... Bill... Me love you long time!

No Koko in E44 it is true. I'm as disappointed as you as I wanted a Mattel Koko and Frankie. This indicates to me that Koko figure has been cancelled for whatever reason (sucks for those who wanted it), so it won't be in any other upcoming line either. If this is due to the lawsuit he was a part of, I thought that the suit was thrown out by the courts- is this thing still ongoing?! As for people bitching about the Warrior re-release and the yellow IC belt, how do you know it won't come with that belt?! Swapping out a black strap for a yellow strap would be a very easy thing to do and this minor change would bring older collectors into the mix as many would probably purchase this figure a second time just to get the belt. Anyone know if this elite legends line will be available at retail, I would like to pick up the Kamala figure as I was not collecting when it was first released. I hope they look at re-releasing other figures from the legends line, Steamboat & Bam Bam Bigelow are the two I am most interested in. |

I'm extremely disappointed in all of the rereleases now that I keep thinking about it.

I need to know more Yeah, that's what I thought too... sounds as though it's basically a relaunch of the Legends line, only in current/Elite packaging. Plus, they'll be able to include current guys (like Undertaker and Jericho) which they couldn't do in the original Legends line. A line of rereleases doesn't bother me as much as others. Mankind, Cactus Jack, The Rockers, E12 Kane and Yokozuna could be rereleased. Its not like they are ever going to be irrelevant like current roster guys (Mizdow, Daniel Bryan, Adam Rose). ...Daniel Bryan is "irrelevant"...?  |

2 questions:
Will Elite Legends Undertaker have the ripped sleeves like the Wrestlemania Undertaker with grey gloves and boots or will it be like the original release with no ripped sleeves over the shoulders?
Will the Ultimate Warrior have the gold intercontinental title belt rather than a gold heavyweight title belt?

To reissue the incorrect yellow WWF Title would suggest some real laziness on Mattel's part, and frankly, show a lack of dedication to making this reboot successful. |

I'm ok with the reissues. I miss that HBk before and I need that Warrior for my loose collection. Keeping the legends one MOC. I hope they re-release Bam Bam, Rick Martel, Demolition, Mankind, Kane and the rest of the rare FBs. Sad about Koko being cancelled. I was excited on that figure. I hope it will be release down the line. Now give us Beefcake please.

Are the legends elite figs re-packs because on ringside.com they are showing figs I already have. The hbk fig is from e19, undertaker from e23, etc. Some of the figs are re-releases, but magnum ta is kinda new since it was never technically released, and we aren't sure what attire Jericho is in. Im hoping warrior comes with at least 1 belt. Oh ok, thanks buddy |

Ha, I guessed right about Legends.I'd quote it, but the thread evaporated. Hope this stuff catches on and they don't ruin the line by including guys from WCW in the 1970s(except Ric Flair)

I'm not certain - but as it's a re-release of the E23 figure, I would think it wouldn't have ripped sleeves. Let's see some Hogan's going already! ...man, that would be so awesome - imagine all the different Hogan's we could have! I haven't heard anything about Hulk coming back to the WWE though, so it's extremely doubtful...  |

I wonder what the case breakdowns will be on the legends set.
Probably magnum, Kamala, and Jericho will be short packed
