I find Wrestlemania Heritage to be VERY anti-climatic, even more so than the Rumble one. At least the Rumble has a very cool Shawn figure I would like to get. I understand everybody has different needs and wants and by no means do I expect them to cater to me or any individual person but I figure I just speak up on this. The Wrestlemania Heritage line doesn't look impressive at all. John Cena WM 20? It does look a little different with the hair but that is it. What if he wore his WM 22 gear with his entrance wear? Jack Swagger: I am a fan of the man but first of all why does he even have one? Second, if he is going to have one why is it Wrestlemania 27 and NOT Wrestlemania 26 where, you know, he won MONEY IN THE BANK!!!  !! I can't really comment on Guerrero or HHH, neither look that impressive. However, I would have liked it if Undertaker came with the Winged Eagle from Wrestlemania 13. Warrior looks ok but I am not sure if I want it. I am mostly holding out for L4 or L6. In my opinion, Wrestlemania Heritage would have been much cooler with this: Shawn Michaels: Wrestlemania 10, 12 or 14 Razor Ramon: Wrestlemania 10 Yokozuna: Wrestlemania 9 Wrestlemania 13: The Undertaker w/Winged Eagle Bret Hart: Wrestlemania 9 Though I'm not a fan: Rey Mysterio Wrestlemania 25 Joker Outfit would have been cool. Between this and the new elite series, the ONLY figure Mattel has convinced me that would be a good buy, for me anyway, would be Bossman. I would definitely like an Elite Bossman for sure. Not impressed by King Booker, The Rock, Undertaker or Del Rio. And then we get yet ANOTHER Cena figure. Rise Above Hate coming real soon I am sure. I hope all of you have fun with this new line coming out. I will have fun with my future Bossman and possibly Warrior figure. That is it. Happy Hunting.  |

Heritage sets are no longer gonna be released so you won't have to worry about them anymore.
Flashbacks have been great we get classic and more current guys granted not everyone's cup of tea but I think a good mix thus far.

Said something along the lines that most of the active fosters memorable attires from over the years have been done already and won't continue it as a legends line. Something like that.

I really don't like that. So Jakks did the attires before but Mattel is much more detailed. I see no reason why we can't have a Mattel version of Jakks figures. I prefer Mattel. All of my wrestlers displayed up front are Mattel and I do have some Jakks on display but they are behind the Mattel ones.

I don't really follow the basics as closely as Elites (I cannot afford the $$$ or energy on two lines of figures). I like the Heritage idea and agree that the Royal Rumble set had more appeal to me. Not that I would buy either. King Booker is an Awesome figure, though. Their Elite Flashback figures are really nice. I hope this sub-line continues in their Elite series.

I don't think Razor Ramon is even signed to a figure deal. 3. The Joker Outfit would breach copyright rights. |

I think Mattel can do Joker if it wanted too, DC would have to allow it like they did for Flash Rey.

The first set of Heritage figures was
Batista
Edge
John Cena
Randy Orton
Stone Cold Steve Austin
Undertaker
The second set was:
CM Punk
John Cena
Kane
Randy Orton
Triple H
Quite frankly we are lucky we got 2 "Legends" in Warrior & Eddie in this latest set.
Why would they do HBK or Bret when they were just in Royal Rumble Heritage?
They aren't making a basic Yokozuna, ever.
Razor Ramon doesn't have a figure deal
They aren't including accessories with Basic single figures
How could Mattel do it any better? We got a solid set of "Heritage" figures with a nice mix of Legends. Just because they aren't overloading the market with HBK & Bret doesn't mean they are doing a bad job

To be honest I was not impressed and for the record would you please tell me why they would never make a Yokozuna figure?
I'm not really impressed by Warrior or Eddie. Maybe a little by Warrior but that is it.
And why wouldn't they include accessories?

I'm just not impressed. Perhaps you are and other folks are and that is perfectly fine. However, the only ones I have remote interest in are Bossman and Warrior. Just saying. If Yokozuna IS in the next elite series then I am excited. |
