Acolytes are a must buy. Just wish Bradshaws body was bigger. Hopefully they will short pack Molly, got a feeling she will warm for a long time. I have been very happy with the distribution in my Targets the last few series each figure was very easy to get.

Looking back at the Acolytes. Bradshaw needs a bigger body mold. I also hoped they both had the same tight design too

I have been very happy with the distribution in my Targets the last few series each figure was very easy to get. *Ducks accusations of sexism* but female talent always warms the shelves. Hell, I'm STILL seeing SummerSlam/Yellow Dress Liz's in my local Walmart. Zelina Vega has warmed pegs in multiple local Targets for me. Even Trish's most recent Elite is stacked up 5X in every store. And when it comes to the Basics, there's always plenty of Charlottes, Beckys, Liv Morgans, etc stacked up in the dozens. I wonder who the Target audience is other than mature collectors. I don't see young girls playing with wrestling toys, and most boys (my nephews and their friends, from personal experience) aren't asking their parents to buy them female talent when there's male stars on the pegs. It's an interesting product. |

No FTIL legends, people complain. We get FTIL figures, people complain. It's not my favorite lineup ever, but I'll definitely be buying all but Rey. I really don't have any complaints about the Legends line. They've done a good job of getting top names and niche characters in, given the limited names they have to work with. right, I saw people months ago complaining about Jake and asking for new legends, this is a whole series of new to the legends line, Molly we've seen they can change before release and get better, Accolytes I've seen a lot of people ask for from the years I've been on here, Rey is a legend even though he does get plenty of figures everywhere this js his first legends figure and I do like the soft goods jacket |

I'm definitely getting APA. I skipped their first elite figures cause they weren't in ring gear. Both Mollys I'll grab. I like how recent chase figures has a different character of the wrestler, like Big Boss Man with the WCW Boss character. Rey I could skip. If it were a 2002-2003 Era Rey, I'd buy it. It's a good lineup for me cause 3 outta 4 I would buy

Love the choices but not sure on the execution on anything but the Rey.
MDT really need to make a slightly wider pelvis area as too many wrestlers look way too small for that width….e.g Bradshaw, Razor/Hall, Goldust etc..
Mollys head is her but something seems really off…it could be fixed by paint maybe…not sure.
It would have been nice to get a better Faarooq headsculpt.
The big issue with Legends is you never know if this is the last time you will get a figure of them from Mattel so if they don’t hit there mark its a huge downer.
Plus if they don’t sell well (due to them not being great) there’s less likely going to be another with new sculpts

@brit_figs that looks fantastic. I wonder about the range of articulation on the butterfly joints though. Also, does he come with an alternative headscan? How much will this retail for? I’m excited. Hopefully, they have more Sabu’s with different colors. Edit: Love the attention to detail like the scarring. Also, bummed out about the lack of double jointed elbows.

On the list of baffling design choices that infuriate me this isn’t egregious. But it is bugging me. Why don’t they just do it right? It costs the same amount of money to get that v shape on the boot more accurately shaped and positioned. The black pointed tip should be touching the top of the ankle, then the paint wouldn’t need to go above the boot mold. So why not just do it? Maybe design just rushes through some of this stuff like ehhh close enough.  |
