Make sure you buy the Bella twins when they’re added to legends line soon. They’re retired. They would qualify for the Legends line whether you like it or not. Rule of thumb should be 20 years. So the legends line shouldn’t have anyone that debuted after 2001. They have already made a Cena because they lack enough classic talent signed. |

After 10 years of everyone on here complaining it was gone they brought it back and now you want them to cancel it? I will simply say nothing. 🤐 They are not making anything new, relabel the "legends" line into something else or end it. They are just getting away with re-releases. Or just ignore it if that’s how you feel and let other people enjoy things |

Let me put it this way: It's the one series I will go out of my way to collect. Having full cases of individual characters is an ace move, I've gotten all I've wanted thus far and anticipate much the same.
Only issue is the lack of brand new talent. I understand licensing isn't as lax as it was in the OG line but Greg Valentine's the only new face we've seen thus far. Some of the CEs like Davey Boy or Michael Hayes I feel would have fit
Overall though, it's my favorite Mattel series second to Ultimates

I also had no problem with the ultimate warrior from his last night on raw because they’re wrestlers from the 80’s. |

Bella Twins are legends according to WWE’s criteria of being such, argue further about it with yourself cuz I’ve said all I want to |

Remember when Triple H was in Classic Superstars series 1? Remember Classic Series 2 with Mankind and Dude Love?
I don’t remember anyone saying “These looks aren’t even ten years old! How are they classic!?”

I said nobody should be in the legends line that debuted after 2001. Eddie debuted before then. |

Love the line, just wish it wasn't exclusive to Target.

Love it but desperately need new names. Not pointing the finger, assume it’s WWE restrictions but either way, it needs new names in the next 12 months or people will get bored of it.

I love them. It’s easily become my second favorite line behind the UE’s.
I’m a legends/old school/ 80’s -early 2000’s guy anyway

its  ing awesome. distribution has been a bit of a hassle at times, but with the news that they are shipping full cases of them, its going to get better. i love what we've been given in terms of characters. maybe the only guy i think is a little stale is Jake, didn't really understand the point of making him the chase, twice....but like we're getting cool figures, better figures of previously released guys, and some nice surprises. Hope it continues for YEARS. |

I think it’s been pretty solid so far. I haven’t picked up every figure, but frankly I never understand why people think every figure in a set has to be something they specifically want to make the set a success. As far as character selection, whether people want to admit it or not, the early-mid-00s are as far away now as the 80s were in the Classic Superstars Era, so I have zero issue with looks from that era being represented here. Also, I know this is semantics, but a repaint and a rerelease are two very different things and using the terms interchangeably makes no sense.

Glad it gave me another chance at Vader without breaking my wallet in half

Get rid of collectors edition that nobody can find in stores anyway and add those figures to the legends line. Kama, Warlord, The Goon would be awesome in Legends line.

I think it’s cool. It gives people the chance to get figures that wouldn’t be released in the elite line and others the chance to get figures they’ve missed out on. What I kind of don’t like is how hard it is to get them through the Target app. It’s like you have to be there at a certain time and checking the app consistently, otherwise you strike out. That’s out of Mattel’s hands though. I wish we could have a poll with the talent available to create our own series.
