anyone know a prelim shipping timeline for these? Wierd, it doesn't give an "on or before" date like everything else had. Steve did say the turnaround should be rather quick. I ordered my right at 12 noon EST and status already says processing so imagine these ship quickly like the last wave. |

Really on the fence about series 2. The figures look great, but I have limited space, and how many Jake and Rude figures do I need.
I will probably end up picking them up out of FOMO.

Anyone know how long these are available to order? Oh wow, I remember you from like 10 years ago! If it's anything like the last, probably months. The last set just sat for a bit. I like this set and love Rick's facial expressions. If we get a Bam Bam or Vader, I'd probably buy a set. Idk too much about the original sets these are based off, so don't chew me out if I get the figure selection wrong. It's before my time  |

There's several I'd love to see, but I'm personally hoping for Savage & Steamboat in wave 3... Still haven't gotten a Savage Ultimate in trunks. And one in pink would be ideal. We need better Steamboat faces. Especially a younger mullet Steamboat. Plus the claw hand would be perfect for his LJN pose. I get pairing Savage with Steamboat - but IF they go that route - how/when do they EVER get Elizabeth made? She'd HAVE to be paired with Savage, I'd think.... I think a gorgeous Liz with a beautiful pink gown (over-top of that gaudy outfit her LJN figure wore) would compliment an 80's pink trunks Savage very nicely.... I just don't see them releasing Liz in this series without Randy.... Yeah you're right, if they plan on doing an Ultimate Elizabeth, that's probably the way to go. |

Hmm, this might be right and if so, that’s probably me out of collecting this line. If I can’t display it, not worth the investment. Yeah this was the plan right from the start. All the figs will be ultimate editions of their ljn counterparts. Literally the package and artwork are all throwbacks to the ljn line. But Jake has different boots to the LJN. Personally think they could pay the same tribute but with ring accurate gear but if they’re going to stick to LJN looks then at least be consistent with that. |

I picked it up. I don’t like how since the Jake isn’t true to the LJN that we still got stuck with the worst possible Rude attire even if it’s true to the original. Seems kind of odd considering that the Hogan was true to the original (even if the Funk wasn’t, but he was closer than Jake)

Ordered me 1 set. Can’t wait to get these. Pretty excited for that Damien. I wonder what the Damien is made out of on the inside in order to make it bendable.

Unfortunately neither the shade of green nor the boots are accurate on this Coliseum version. |

Jake's boots match the ljn poster just like funk's attire does so that's how they are able to say they are based on the ljn's |

The boots on the LJN poster are accurate, which Mattel got right with the Legends figure. I'm not sure why they changed them for this one.   |

True, not an exact match to the poster but they are closer than the tights lol i meant they based the "look" off the poster so that's how they can say it's ljn attire. Rick rude to me looks like a mash up between ljn and hasbro though unfortunately. I love this line but wish they were ljn figure accurate |

I love this line but wish they were ljn figure accurate Like Jake, Rude's LJN and Hasbro were based on the same tights. The Mattel is closer to the LJN, since it has the multiple colors on the tights and the pink boots. |
