I could live without warrior in the line but I hope they get around to everybody. Savage is by far the most important big name left, but the draw for me at this point are the smaller names like Adonis, Orndorff, and the rest of the tag sets, emphasis on the tag teams. I really hope they do get Savage done though, his LJN look is too good to not have in ultimate form especially in CC packaging Have they got the rights for Adonis and Orndorff? |

Id imagine Adonis is a tough sell and Orndorffs legends deal lapsed a year or so ago |

Nope, I highly doubt it. Orndorff figures coming from multiple independent companies, and no Mattel Adonis fig ever produced at this point. |

I worry Mattel wouldnt want to touch the adorable gimmick, but it doesnt seem like WWE would sign him in the first place. |

Surely Iron Sheik has to be next. We got him as an Elite legend recently but it's not his LJN figure look.

They’ve avoided blue trunks in recent releases, given us yellow and red instead. So maybe that’s an upcoming set? Or are they both anchors? Happy Gobbledy Gooker Day, ya’ll! |

Only if we got Adorable Adrian first. One of my top wants. We might be the only two. Imagine how good he would look with those pink tights on a blue card. I don’t care if they ever release Warrior or Macho in this line, I’d much rather Adonis, Ventura, Hillbilly Jim, Bundy, Studd, Muraco, Volkoff, JYD or Sheik all day long. There are so many looks and unique accessories. He would be so toyetic. The Christmas bows. Big floppy hat. Blond wig and muumuu. Scarves and legwarmers.a screaming face and a smug face and a pouting face. |

Ordered! Looks to be a preorder for February (likely when it goes up on Mattel Creations as a straight order to ship).

Just ordered. I really hope the scale issues aren’t as bad as they look. CC is def my favorite line.

I was hoping M$M & Ricky Steamboat would be discounted today. I guess I’ll pick them up next Black Friday.

If they are still available next Black Friday, I’m sure they will be discounted then. That said, I wouldn’t doubt if they produce lower quantities of these sets at this point, given their questionable popularity. |

Man, Bossman looks really undersized here. Not just in height, but weight as well. If this is based off his early WWF days, he was really big/heavy at that time. The figure needed a bigger belly. The George Steele figure is criminally undersized, too. I hope they can get stuff like this sorted out, but I think this is too niche of a line for them to put more effort in. |

In case not everyone follows the Steve Q & A thread, he confirmed that this line is continuing through 2026 (at least)! At the current release schedule, after Bam Bam/ Bossman, that gives us 3 more waves. I want the LJN homage classics, personally- Andre (blue trunks)/ Studd, Sheik/ Volkoff, and Beefcake/ Valentine. However, I could absolutely see The Dream Team getting bumped for Ventura, or even a Warrior/ HTM set. What do you all think? With 3 more sets now all but guaranteed, who do you think we are getting? Of course, if we get Macho back, he is absolutely getting in this line regardless of who it bumps out!
