...where was it reported that it's been cancelled?? Bill posted, on a thread that later got deleted, that the four figures were part of a 4-pack that got cancelled. No reason given as to why. If anyone is daft enough to need an explanation as to why: Go check most Targets..... review how low the sales have gone add the 2 together and reason it out for yourself.

Horsemen warmed, but im sure bill said they sold good enough. I think they got the distribution figured out more and could be more successful with much less out there

He looked upset when asked about it cause he knew they were going to be cancelled

He said they sold well when the Heenan set was revealed, basically "We sold enough to make another one". It's a shame, another fumble, but if each of those figures can be released as single or 2 pack elites with extra deco and accessories, then it's probably for the best that they were nixed. At least they weren't a total failure.

It's bullcrapthat one set shows up in California and then two months later it shows up in Texas but for some reason another place never sees it. I never saw heenan sets once. Don't think I ever will either. They are releasing too much stuff and at rates that cause the stores to get behind and when they finally sell one set, they skip the next two just to make up the lost time.

Three street clothes figures and larry z just really seem like an awful 4 pack idea. Even if those three street clothes guys were hall nash and eddie.
They could have made a wolfpack 4 pack or n.w.o and have a much better theme to it.
I know it was a wcw theme but it makes as much sense as waylon mercy, diesel, andre the giant and zack ryder as a "wwf" 4 pack

Blame target and other retailers. Theyre the ones that distribute to individual stores.

From what I understand, the initial shipments of the Horsemen sold well but then Target re-ordered way too many more because Mattel did not have another 4 pack ready yet. Anyway I think Zybysko would be perfect in a Legends series 2 wave with Gobbledy Gooker

All I care about is that they release that Zbysko in some way. He's the only figure in the set I wanted.

Hello,
Was going around Target today and come across this four pack in one pack had the Nash in the black shirt with red NWO, in another pack however it had the Nash in a black shirt with White NWO and he has grey hair and a grey beard. Anyone able to tell me the relevance behind this if any??
Regards

We would need to see pics.

Sounds like a repack, did the head look similar to this?

Anyone able to tell me the relevance behind this if any?? Regards I've seen a few errors in printing like that before. I once saw a Los Matadors pair but the figures were black, they kind-of looked like the guys from cryme tyme but the were in the Los Matadors attire and packaging. Earlier this year I saw a Warlord package but the figure was really tiny, no muscle definition, could never make out who it was but it did not look like any other warlord figure. And I saw a Papa Shango Ultimate Warrior 2-pack and the Ultimate Warrior was in his Ultimate Maniacs ring gear not his WrestleMania 8 ring gear. I checked the packaging and it didn't look like someone opened it and swapped out the figure, no tape missing or tears that I could find. It just looked like they packaged the wrong figure. Sorry, no pics to provide, I did not purchase any of them.

They were all switch and returns. These losers have it down to a art form they way they can repack figures back into boxes/cards and make them look like the packages weren't tampered with.
