They literally need to burn every copy of that Heenan (or make a smarter decision, and donate them to Toy Drives)

Just because your target has a ton of legends on the shelf doesn’t mean every target is like that. The 3 in my area may have 2-3 on the shelf at all times. And they move pretty fast. Within 2 weeks there gone and new product is out Agreed. I feel like the main reason is because of distribution issues. Some Targets may get 10 cases while another only gets 4. Just an example of course

i will say this....as a collector I appreciate (and bought) Weasel Suit Heenan....however the decision to make it is mirroring the decision to release AWA Sgt Slaugher and Snuka in boots/tights during the first Legends run i think the biggest mistake was making that heenan 2 per case especially over valentine

That’s the main problem other than store distribution, they shortpack the popular figures but pack multiple of the least wanted figs

I don't remember seeing much negativity about it, aside from people complaining they couldn't find it early on. It's an awesome figure, and they absolutely nailed an awesome two-in-one figure.

I've seen complaints about the waist being loose and the interchangeable heads being hard to swap (hardly anything unique to this fig), and wishes that the regular mask was sculpted on rather than being its own piece. I am really quite fond of mine.

I am really quite fond of mine. I actually grabbed a second copy when they were on sale last week. I'm debating to display one with the mask and another with the entrance gear, or I may just repaint one to be his WCW attire from the first Legends figure. Heck of a lot cheaper to do a simple repaint than pay the prices that figure is going for.

Has Vader ever worn the strap mask with the attire the Legends figure is in? Just wondering.

I did too, the mask wasnt as hard to put on as people say, but i did just opt for the original maked head. Yeah I was able to get it on without too much trouble. Fun story...I pre-ordered the figure. Naturally, people started finding it before mine shipped. I'd pre-ordered Eddie from the last set as well, but found him before mine shipped, so I was able to cancel that and just buy it in store. With Vader, I only saw him in store after mine had shipped, but before it arrived. I bought it anyway, and I'm glad I did. I'm not even using the unmasked head, but the one that Target shipped me had a wonky face print (the first I'd ever seen in person), so I was able to return that one to the store and open the one I found LOL

I'm not sure of the exact timeline but he wore the black mask when they started teaming up and switched to the other look while they were still together.
