Sucks to hear about Legends, but we all knew it was coming. None of them have sold out. They even still have the SDCC 2010 Undertaker listed. It says sold out, but if there was no stock left it wouldn't still be up.
I was hoping that Legends would be revealed as the new subscription line at SDCC, but I'm guessing that isn't the case. If they only intend to release them in the Elite line, I hope we can at least get a confirmation of 2 slots per wave.
And since when has Sting left TNA? He's in a storyline with them right now. He's not going to WWE anytime soon. Maybe the asker meant to say Ric Flair?

I really want to see a Sting figure. I would not mind seeing Sting in WWE for WM

Mattel said that they can't except tattoo artwork/attire/etc designs from fans (Sorry Dean), due to legal issues.
Dean better not get banned like Ralph basically did.

That question had nothing to do with dean, the poster added his name not Mattel. A guy on the MattyForums asked mattel if they could use his tattoo design for Wades new tat. He even sent them a link to his ebay auction of the sticker, when the didn't answer the first time he sent them a second question this time linking pics of his wade and Punk Tats

Sin Cara Ketchup to go with Sin Cara Mustard, mmm.
Entrance ramp sounds tight, I hope it doesn't cost $80 and it's big enough to fit all my EGs.

Sting hasn't left TNA...who the hell asked that question? Anyway, Lawler & Striker would warm pegs....no one really cares about Striker. However Lawler on his own would sell very well, I could guarantee that. Don't really care that we won't get a "Sakamoto" figure....he won't be around much longer anyway. Not surprised at all by the Legends line officially dying. It was a slim, sub par effort by them to keep it alive. Obviously the line isn't doing well on Matty at $30 apiece with little accessories.

I'm most excited about the *possibility* of the Christian flashback.
VERY interesting that they say that figure was canceled due to injury, yet Rey Mysterio (gone for like a year) is being announced for new lines to add on to the already clogged shelves. And once-a-month-on-TV Undertaker is also warming by means of WMH and Elite 14. Oh well. I guess it's a better excuse than the 'no current guys as flashbacks' spiel they tried to give us before (lolKane).

I don't even collect and I get frustrated with this line. Especially when it deals with Legends/Flashbacks. The Flashbacks OBVIOUSLY are the first to go when a new set comes out so why not put MORE in each set? There's what? 4 Elite sets a year? Seriously.... c'mon now. There's no earthly reason not to make more in the line and there's no reason they can give to tell us otherwise.

I was kinda hoping the new scale was going to be something on par with Marvel Universe figures, but now I have a feeling that even at a $5 range they aren't worth $0.50 like their DKR figures. We still might see some cool playsets for this line and my MU's could always use a ring, or an arena set up. Who knows maybe these are awesome but Mattel is being modest incase they feel they aren't that awesome. We have put them through the mill over their products TBH. Plus 3 3/4"ers can't compete with 6" by default and that is any company any toyline. Most collectors buy both anyways.
At least DC Direct is going to be picking up Mattel's slack in terms of 3 3/4" DC figures.
I am not surprised by the Legends line no longer being on Matty. I just hope they manage to sneak us a few more FBs this year and even through out a few Elite 2pks that have Legends. Maybe Mattel should consider giving us more chances at getting these damn things. Perhaps giving collector sites better case breakdowns, and put more than 1 in a revision case. Also one could expect Legends to go away when the figures being offered are kinda boring, lack accessories, and are 2x's the price of retial. I bet if Kane, Big Boss Man, Booker T, Yokozuna, Mankind, and Liz were the line up they would have seen more success.
WTF? I have to be on the look out now for an Entrance Stage. Talk about no warning and a lot of questions. Is it Electronic? Is it just for looks? Does it come with a ring? Price? At least it is at K-Mart and if it is expensive I can always put it on layaway. I have a feeling it is going to be mostly cardboard, and it will probably come with another crappy basic ring.
Despite my negative outlook, and us getting some serious info, I do have to say this will be one of the most interesting SDCC for Mattel's WWE yet and I cannot wait for the weekend to come.

Good to hear that the Christian FB may be coming. Although I'm sure it'll sell faster than hotcakes and a lot of people won't get it. I hate to be so negative but this stuff is just so frustrating.
Entrance stage sounds interesting. I'm looking forward to it.
