The Edge’s are about a year older than me
They’re not recent, if you want to complain about recent you should be looking at Hurricane which is from 2009/10
Recent is relative to how you feel about time passing. If you’re in denial about 2002 being 20 years ago, it’s recent

So wait, we are complaining about DX and Edge but no one had a problem with “literal Warrior’s last breath”? I loved the Ultimate Warrior, but I didnt want that figure. Its just too depressing for me. |

They could put flashbacks like Randy Orton or Mysterio in the line if they wanted to, just like they did with Cena |

Randy Orton and Rey Mysterio are legends but if they were in the Legends line it would be a flashback Figure not a current one If people want to complain 2002 figures are too new for the legends line than why aren’t those people complaining about a 2010 figure in the line. Nobody was talking about DDP in that line even though it was 2002 also lol |

There’s like zero difference between legends and flashbacks, it’s all just branding and marketing

can only speak for myself obviously, but regardless of how they're packaged, I'd like to see some more 'attitude era' releases. I missed Godfather and D'lo Brown, for example (and won't pay the silly prices some want second-hand). So I'd be in favour of more of these types.
Ring gear APA should be a plausible option to be able to get them released again, however I fear many of us who joined too late may have missed out on many reasonably priced mid-carders (Godfather, D'lo, Rikishi, Viscera, Scotty 2 Hotty, Ring-gear Vince, Boss Man, Malenko, etc. all seem to have been done and they were likely not the best sellers in the world, so unlikely to see them again).
I'd also be curious to see would they make a Jacqueline figure, and if so, would they have the neck to sculpt her chest with all it's true-to-life enormity, or would they feel a bit awkward and have to reduce it down a bit so it didn't look like an 'adult' toy of sorts hanging on a shelf. Haha.

At this point…everything up to 2008 is fair game for Legends/Throwback/Classic. It’s from before Mattel was making figures, and at this point it’s 14 years ago. Remember when the Jakks CS line started including 2000 looks in the line, a few of us weren’t sure what to think of it, but at that point, that period of wrestling had gone long enough as to be considered “Classic”

That came out in 2004. |

Chyna will probably rot on the pegs like her WM figure. But I have no issues with the rest of who they put in this set. That said only Mean Mark and maybe the Edge in white are my “must haves”.

I think this Chyna has a better shot at moving, mainly because this is closer to a memorable look for her. Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy they made the Mania figure, but I think women’s champion purple Chyna isn’t definitive for most people. |
