I was totally against the Lost Legends or E44.5 when originally brought up. But I have to say seeing Kamala, E23 Taker with that purple that just pops off the shelf, E19 HBK, WM 6 Warrior and then Magnum and Jericho. I really like them. I don't know if it's just the new packaging or seeing such great figures available for new collectors to purchase again. But it looks like it may be a hit
Here's what I'm hoping for Lost Legends wave 2 if they continue to do them every once in a while - no new figures like Magnum, as I guess he was just a special case, unless Zybysko could be thrown in this line?
1) E13 Edge (straight up re release or a repaint would be fine!)
2) L5 Macho Man
3) L4 Hacksaw Jim Duggan
4) E6 Batista (add in a Spinner belt with him)
5) TRU CEO Vince McMahon
6) E12 Kane (I would want a 'beefier' torso or at least double sleeved version)
**If Batista isn't available anymore to make then substitute a repainted HOF Flair in possibly with a vac WHC?
I tried to consider the cloth and budget (like I know!)
Original lineup only has one cloth shirt - Macho -
- Edge - coat and glasses - Vince - nothing or maybe a mic - Batista - detailed tats, but less than E30, vac Spinner and white glasses - Hacksaw - 2 x 4 and the flag (or leave the flag out) - Kane - voice box really doesn't matter but is a cool little accessory
Sounds doable
Leaves E16 Nash, E16 Diesel, E25 Bruno (slicked back hair, 80's version LOL), repainted HOF Flair, E7 Shawn and HHH, etc for later series down the line
Would love to hear your suggestions for the next wave or two

I would buy all of your series 2 except batista.
I would like to see The Giant rereleased. And also maybe Texas tornado

Didn't Bill say that was a one time thing and doubt they'd ever do another series like that again?

I personally hope they do Not sure how much of a hit is was considering most of the figures in this series coulda been obtained over the holidays for as low as $8-$12 even on RSC.

I think the rerelease wave served its purpose but was not the ideal situation for Mattel. I only expect this type of thing again around Xmas like they did with e47/47b. Maybe they would do another rerelease wave but I hope not, I liked e47b much better.

Personally, I want it to be a yearly series with special packaging. And its called Elite Legends not "Lost" Legends. "Lost" legends is just a name people made up.

RSC called it Elite Legends. Neither were correct. It didn't have an official series name but Bill said to call it 44B.

Spinner belt sounds good (that's a shame we still didn't get that yet) and a CEO Vince sounds good too.
Lost legends for me: British bulldog - That legends figure Headscan doesn't look much like him at all Ahmed Johnson - a new figure Jimmy Snuka - if they get the rights and this time BARE FOOT, a Tan Kevin Von Erich body Tommy Dreamer - in Elite with silver ECW belt Scott Hall - easy repaint in Wolf Pac attire Triple H - one of many colors from Evolution like, white boots or red, purple, blue tights Goldberg - a legends wrestler figure in modern times (like Jericho) Luna - a new woman figure Sherri - a new figure
Any of these I think will sell.
