I can’t believe they would go with a Scott Hall so soon after Razor just basically warmed shelves for a long while I’ll buy them all though Wish they would go ahead and get a Hogan or Flair in this line before it gets canceled I don’t see the line being cancelled. The initial Legends line warmed shelves forever. This line is selling, for the most part. Even the “peg warmers” are eventually selling. Obviously a few here and there in certain stores will sit for longer, but that’s with anything in any collector/toy market. Having said that, they absolutely need to hit some obvious home runs ASAP, such as: ANY Flair, especially Suited Flair ANY Hogan 2002 Rock with white shirt and track pants ANY Macho Man ANY NWO figure literally ever lol 2000's Hogan with Undisputed title seems like such a lay up IMO. It's the only Hogan era they haven't really touched and its an excuse to use the Undisputed title mold so seems like a win all around. |

Looks good, I’d take a Razor over Hall to be honest. I guess if it’s Hall, then we’ll be seeing Razor in the Ultimates. They had better give us Diesel Ultimate, I don’t want no Nash without Hall Ultimate or Razor without Diesel. Lol Nash and Hall UEs with tag belts would be cool |

Once again, I'll gladly take any Macho Man they release. Very excited for the announcements tomorrow.

It would be great to get some new first time in the line names instead of so many that already have a figure in the earlier series

I sold my elite collection last summer, so I'm all in on any/all Macho Man figures that get released as those are the only figures I kept. |

Plus some of those figures came out a long time ago and/or are pretty expensive on the secondary market. I feel for those who already have them but am glad for those who missed out (disclaimer: I missed out on most). |

I think most people would tell you that another Bam Bam and John Studd were needed, a lot of people have been asking for another old school macho and they get two out at once. This is not one of those sets where these figures weren’t needed/asked for.

Something that always bothers me about this board is people who say stuff like "Why would the do X wrestler in X look again" when its been 5-10 YEARS since that figure came out. Not everyone started collecting in 2010, hell, not everyone was old enough to start then so rereleasing iconic looks and figures is pretty understandable and appreciated every now and then. |

So why did they give Sid Justice a singlet? Did he ever have that singlet attire during this era?

well this was a close prediction. im super happy with the lineup.
love that Macho man, gives me a reason to get two.
love the Bam Bam, we literally have the perfect collection of Bigelow now
Hall is great, such a cool figure, I feel like the scan will look better in person
BJS was a nice surprise, this one is way cooler than his first release....I think what I'll end up doing is just bagging and tote-ing the Heenan 4 Pack one now and displaying the new one with the robe....makes me wish they had done a baby blue tights version instead tbh

The package says sid justice not sid vicious. It should be one or the other. Sid justice had blonder hair than the figure too. I just want 1991 to 92 sid justice. Bleach blond perm mullet. Light blue or red trunks. |

Pretty happy they put the legends art/pic on the front of the box. One step closer to looking like the original legends sets.

I'm with you. I did a deep dive on Mid-South during JYD's run and was blown away by how much stronger he was as a wrestler and really ran the promotion. Definitely like to get him and Duggan, DiBiase Mid South figures. Jake the Snake and Butch Reed too. Maybe even Matt Bourne and Dr. Death Steve Williams.
I also wouldn't say no to Mr. Wrestling II and Mr. Olympia!

The Basic Sid Justice is perfect...Is there any need for an Elite? Maybe at some point in the future, but I'm much happier with a WCW Sid. The next Sid I'd want is a late-WCW/ECW Sid in jeans and vest.

I agree with you that the Sid Justice basic is very good, but since that is my favorite look of his I would have liked to have had that as an elite. However, they could have done his red trunks from when he turned on Hogan in 1992, this way the 2-in-1 figure is the good guy Sid from Summer Slam 1991 and the bad guy Sid from SNME 1992.  They also could have done the darker shade of blue trunks he wore, which could have doubled as a Sid Vicious figure since he wore those in WCW in 1993.   |
