I’m glad that Steve says that Legends is doing well because it’s great to get first time in the lines but unfortunately as I live in the UK, I just can’t justify continuing with the line due to customs charges buying from the States. They end up being the same price as Ultimate Editions.
If we had retailers that sold them, I’d carry on but it doesn’t look like that’s going to change anytime soon.
What’s everyone else’s thought on the line?

Same as you. The last few series haven't been good enough to shell out £40+ per figure. I'd happily pay £25 to £30 depending but that's not an option for us in Europe. Crazy that not even online retailers can make this work.

I like it.
I’m not always a buyer of the characters/attires but I’m happy when the ones I want are done like the Acolytes

I just can’t wait to get the headshrinkers/ Paul E Dangerously set. To me that set is better than most of the sets leading up to it. I got a bad feeling the Molly holly set and the aj styles set will warm hard…hopefully not too hard or we won’t get the shrinkers/dangerously

Was good for at least one or two figures per wave but there hasnt been anything that interests me in the last couple of waves.

It's my favourite line and I always want a majority of the figures. I just wish we got every set here in Canada, as opposed to every third set or so.

I hope it continues forever and I hope we get new faces in the line.

I picked "Love it" though I have no interest in the vast majority of them. Of the last few sets, the only one I wanted was the chase Lex Luger, but I appreciate the opportunity to get something I'd want.

Only line besides Ra I can ever buy a whole set of from time to time. Definitely tend to have better lineups than some of the other lines more current talent imo

They are great and tbh by just playing the waiting game you can get them for $6-$10. What’s not to like!

Magnum Scott Hall
Gorgeous Jimmy Garvin
Mr Electricity Steve Regal
L19
Sid Vicious (Skyscrapers)
Ron Garvin (Superstars on the Superstation)
Beautiful Bobby Eaton (Great American Bash 1990)
Sweet Stan Lane (Great American Bash 1990)
L20

Steve Corino (ECW November to Remember 2000)

Loving it although that wave Shamrock is in is a dud.
So much great stuff revealed in there coming up though. I wish the Irish retailer Smyths carried them but I realise they wouldn't sell. I think if one of the main CBS here carried the line they would sell.
But thankfully through my connection stateside they aren't much of an issue for me to get 🇮🇪💪🇺🇲

Getting a little tired of a lot of repaints or rereleased guys but I pick and choose now instead of being a completist. Kinda better this way

even though i've only bought a handful of legends, i'm a big fan of the line. i feel like its been a fairly good spread of talent so far. and there's still so much more that can be done. hell, this is the kind of line where repaints could work really well considering how many cool and colorful attires some guys had back in the day

I like it
I'll never get about 90% of the line, but the odd few that i like or need, i'll definitely get.
Some favourites so far have been
- Series 7 Razor Ramon
- Series 8 Eddie Guerrero
- Series 11 Scott Hall
- Series 14 Edge
- Series 15 Kane
- Series 16 Faarooq & Rey Mysterio

I collect this series both moc and loose. I buy one of each moc and then double up on the ones I want to photograph loose.
It’s my favorite line and I hope it continues for a long time.

I’ll always support legends as my entire collection is my nostalgia. Mania 1 through to the end of attitude era.
On the whole though, the success of any given series in a line will always come down to the strength of the line up. Big names and first in the line names…if they are plentiful then it will work and also give room to include some of the more niche talent that we all need to fill out collections that might not sell in an elite wave.
