My favorite is Luger and he’s been a main want for a VERY long time. I like that Kane and the headsculpt is fantastic. I’m still hoping we get a ‘01, ‘03 Kane with molded/sculpted details. I'm so pumped because this Lex is the first Lex release since I've been collecting other than the Bash at the Beach pack and Flashback Basic, which I never saw. I'd love to find one in store just to be able to take a picture of him hanging on the peg haha

I have to wonder how many of these little things they DO catch in time but they have the mind set of “oh well people will buy it anyways” which is usually true & that’s the case for me on this one because it’s an easy fix….but on the other hand, the chase Lex in this series, not so much….personally I think if they’re going to have chase figures then take the time to alter the packaging for it & give it the proper accessories, now I haven’t seen it but I would guarantee the back of the chase box has the very same blurb about the Wolfpac even though the chase represents Lex a full 7-8 years before this era ….not a big deal for those who collect loose but for a Moc collector like myself it’s terrible To be fair, Mattel have said they can only alter a figure's deco for the chase version... anything else and it costs extra. So yeah, while it may suck there's a Luger with inaccurate shirt and packaging... at least another/different Luger is being released. It's a win all-'round, IMO. This is it for me. Orange trunks Luger is a dream figure for me, so I'm ecstatic we're getting it. I would have guessed they'd do yellow, dark blue (to match his old WCW figure), light blue, and red before doing orange. The fact they moved it to the front of the line is amazing for me, so I'm just glad to have it even if the card won't match (though a matching card with old WCW promo artwork would make this possibly my favorite figure ever).

If luger is on ball joint hips then I plan on getting a few extra and making a green trunks with the legends triple h lower half and then red trunks with orndorff then blue with bob Orton and possibly yellow trunks if I can find the right lower half to use for it

Thought about it. but not really too worried about making it right now since i really don't want to destroy a Bret just to make it. I guess I could use a Ziggler tho

I’ll be swapping mine with a fresh pair of white boots and open back kneepads. Our WCW collections are filling up

I even started an orange trunks Lex custom using an old WM6 Warrior (that I probably overpaid for lol). If I'd only known this was coming I'd have probably 100 extra bucks to buy figs haha Luckily back in the day Narcissist Lex was on Amazon for cheap and I bought a handful that turned into customs. The head sculpt wasn't as good for WCW Lex, though. I almost finished this one but never got red knee pads: I also did these with the Narcissist figs:

Isn't the Stacy figure specifically Miss Hancock? Why not call it/her Miss Hancock? It's based on this moment from Smackdown when she was Stacy.

Pretty sure the figure is based on late wcw. I saw a clip about a week ago from i think 2000 and its the exact attire of the figure. I guess it could work for both though.

I had to go back to see if I preordered these. Should’ve ordered a bunch of Lugers. The chase has been a little harder to find lately for me.

I only preorderd two Lex figs but I'll be trying for more if and when he's in stock on the app. I might even start fig hunting again, even though I stopped after 30 trips to Target and not a single Royal Rumble Warrior last year.
I haven't got a Legends chase in any of my orders (three or four Macho Man, two JYD, two Jake the Snake, the previous Jake the Snake, maybe others). It's not meant to be for me I think lol

It's not meant to be for me I think lol The only chase I’ve gotten has been Valentine which I didn’t really care either way. Thankfully recent chases have been not much over retail on eBay. I just don’t have it in me to go hunting all the time.
