Just ordered my FOURTH Farooq. Let's see if the fourth time is the charm. First one never arrived, second one had a smudge,scrape on his chest, nose, third one had eyes that were misprinted and wonky. Hopefully, this one doesn't get stolen. This is pissing me off. Collecting should be fun, not a matter of maybe I'll get my figure delivered or have two that come with huge qc issues and having to return and buy a third... The irony is that Farooq is the figure I anticipated the most from this set. they went crazy with that maroon paint, huh? My farooq is fine but Bradshaw looks like his back has a cut and bruise from all this poor paint application also on his elbow pad some how. Not even with the maroon, they messed up the symbols on his chest with one of mine. Damn, this sucks. Hopefully, it's not all Acolytes. I don't need perfect figures, but when you have to keep reordering and returning, then that's a problem. EDIT

I ordered the Acolytes and Rey when they all went on sale Thursday morning, with a 2-day delivery scheduled for Saturday. Come Monday I still had nothing and UPS showed they didn't even have the package yet, so I contacted customer service. They couldn't tell me the status of my order but apologized and offered to send a replacement with a priority rush at no extra charge. I agreed and they put through the replacement order. Today I get a notice from UPS that the new package has shipped and will be here tomorrow. Then later I get another notice that the original order, which Target had supposedly cancelled, was shipping and will arrive Thursday.
So long story short, I paid for one set (at the $16 sale price) and am getting two, so that's six elites for about $50. I haven't decided yet if I should return one set and get the others for free, or just keep the extras and have one MOC and one to open. Either way, Target's screw up is my gain!

Same thing happened to me. I set up the return today after getting these and was told to keep them. I'm going to save them in case, my new Farooq comes with issues. That's if he arrives too... I've never had this issue with Target before. It got me worried about ordering from them in the future.

Shamrock looks cool, but I got the last fb. Did they change anything on this figure? I remember swapping mine with smaller kneepads.

Iβd be happy w just red shamrock in the robe but I wasnβt collecting when that came out so Iβm stoked to find a shamrock (preferably blue) in the wild. If you got the first one, I doubt this oneβs gunna be a game changer

I've seen plenty of Faarooq and Bradshaw plus one Molly Holly at my local Target. No Rey though of course, whose the only on from the set I'm actually looking for.

Molly has been the hard one to find for me as I've only seen her once. Found plenty of the other 3 in the past couple weeks though.

The body is entirely too large. Stacy was thin and flat chested, its all wrong. Giant feet, thick thighs, same chest as Stephanie I think? Im still just dumbfounded that they even made her at all.

Not even sure why they went with that look for her. Miss Hancock was in the dying days of WCW and not that memorable and she wore that outfit maybe once in WWE. Shoulda went with short shorts and a crop top and include a βWelcome to Dudleyvilleβ soft goods shirt and camo shirt. Maybe a table as well.

The past couple legends sets, at least in the early roll out, had one figure that seemed more scarce than the others at first (eventually they all flood in).
For 15, it was Lex Luger, and I found the chase right away. For 16, it was Molly. Took a couple of visits to find her at all, and eventually came across one chase and one regular. Only was gonna buy her if I found the chase, so that worked out.
Once you get the cape off of her and the proper head on, the figure really pops.

Acolytes is a great tag team to pick up. I wish Mattel had did these guy in this way for the previous APA Elites.

Watch for those stuck shoulders! Had to return a chase Molly and Farooq because of their shoulders being locked in place due to uncut plastic. Thankfully able to find replacements and have a perfect set.

How did they not use the Mean Mark torso for Bradshaw? It would have been so much betterβ¦

Thankfully able to find replacements and have a perfect set. Iβve been running into this issue A LOT lately. Legends 15 Luger, WM Elite Rock, Survivor Series Warrior, Legends 16 Farooq, survivor series Drew McIntyre and more!! One or both arms have been completely stuck/frozen in place because of uncut plastic.
