Why didn’t they correct the hair colour on the USA Warrior and add the USA coat? My motivation to continue breathing is that they are saving it for an Ultimate Edition 2-pack with Green Pants/Brown Vest 91 Rumble Poster Warrior 😂 That would be cool. What are the chances they actually get the color right for the WWF title. Maybe we'll finally get a purple-strapped WWF title. |

I can't see an ultimate version of him dropping unless they did a multiple figure boxset of some sort (like a Comic Con exlusive or a Mattel Creations thing). He really would be a figure with extra heads, hands, a belt, and that's it. A history of the world title box set would be great, with him, Buddy Rogers, Pedro Morales, and maybe Ivan Koloff or Superstar Billy Graham. A Bruno and Vince two pack may work. And you can buy multiples and use that Vince body to make commentator Bruno. Pack it with all the accessories that came with New Gen Macho (table, skirt, headsets, mics, chairs).  “YOU SLIME!!!” |

If these are re-releases, then why is Bruno different? Wasn't the original release in blue tights? And do Davey Boy and Bruno have new head sculpts, they look different?

The purple strap is indeed included. |

I was just dreaming of getting that Terry Funk too. Bad match on title and figure but seperatly it will be a useful belt and it's my favorite Terry Funk attire! A win all the way around.

He had more of a permed mullet haircut instead of wavy hair. There are dozens of looks that I wish they would release, but I was hoping that they would rerelease this as an Ultimate with the purple belt, a more accurate head, and the jacket (even if it was a knock off if they don't have the rights).     |

Oh I agree with you completely...this has always been my all time favorite Warrior attire, so I would LOVE an ultimate with the jacket! Couple things I'll say... 1. It LOOKS like they may have taken the head from the basic figure, which had lighter hair... 2. I've never been crazy about Mattel's execution of most of the "short hair" warrior figs, but I do like the screaming face scan...that's the only think that doesn't make me hate the idea of having the "wrong" hair style |

Only Bruno and Bulldog for me. I really wish HTM was the earlier/red jumpsuit one... it had a better likeness (imo) - and this blue one was (and still is!) sooooo easy to get.

I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me when I saw the Bruno because the trunks looked green and I know he had light blue on his figures release. But then I read Steve’s post saying they went green this time. Plus Bruno wasn’t in the Legends line he was in the Elite series. And either was that Warrior he was in the WM FB line. So I guess the “Best of Legends” line isn’t just rerelease of the Legends series. Maybe we can get more Bret, Piper, Graham & Muraco this way. (If all are still signed) |

If only they re-release demolition and the road warriors… Speaking my language over here. I’d buy both so fast I’d light my keyboard on fire. |

Not sure about demolition, but isn't road warriors signed to power town atm? That auto disqualifies them for now.

Excited to finally have a purple strap winged eagle. As for the jacket, I believe Ralph’s has a nice custom version.

I have all of these so I’ll be passing on them all.
Slight chance I’ll pick up the L3 Davey Boy. Had him since 2011 and the legs just don’t want to move anymore.

(If all are still signed) You seem to be right, and I'm here for it. Any additional chance to get more legends is awesome, and apparently it might be an opportunity to not just get re-run apparel, but unreleased apparel as well 🤷🏻♂️ |

Texas Tornado/Kerry Von Erich (I’d be happy with either version)
Hacksaw Jim Duggan (with alternate USA face paint head)
Rick Martel
AWA/NWA Road Warriors
