Still mad we didn't get this. Akeem was cool, but OMG is what we all wanted.

Hmmm, very interesting... Was OMG in that Matty Legends poll?

That's awesome! I never knew that we were supposed to get Arn & Tully in a regular series, so that's neat!

I always wondered why series 4 was only 4 figures. That would have been a great set if it came out that way.

Man, so sad we didn't get OMG. I'm lucky I'm a huge Martel fan. That was the first one I knew I wanted. I was going to get multiples in the event I wanted to do some customs but changed my mind due to funds at the time. Regret that now.

Matt Cardona will probably pay $600 for that piece of cardboard.

What a find! And the original line-up, too.

Now THAT is a Legends series. I really do think the set struggled the first time because of all the super weird choices of attires. I know it made some people happy because it filled holes in their collection, but starting off with all black Road Warriors and Terry Funk in trunks was so weird. Crazy to see how loaded Legends 4 was with OMG, Akeem, Macho Man, Martel and the Brain Busters. Truly potential for an all-time Elite set.

I completely get the attire choices, what with Classic Superstars being so fresh still. But imagine these lineups today! We has no idea at the time, that this line was going to be so sought after! I hope they do a few specials one day with the old packaging. |

Just imagine if we still got figures like this? Hell, just look at that line up compared to what we get now.

Interesting that Bam Bam was not originally in this series. They cut three figures and added one entirely new figure, clearly very late in production too.
