months, should Mattel change it to once a month?
I would say this can be a great idea so that we can get more Legends through Flashbacks, what do you think?

Its been said a million times but...
I just wish Mattel would concentrate on basics and Elites and just forget about all the other crap.
I dunno about one set per month but...these stores just have no clue. I watch Elite series fly off shelves and never get restocked. Meanwhile, some series don't even ever make it to some stores. Blah. With one set per month, who knows what we would and wouldn't get.

Nope too expensive and distribution already sucks and is backed up. I can only imagine how bad it would be if there was one set every month.

I barely go hunting anymore. I just pay more and get the sets delivered at my house. I've been able to sleep, workout and read more since I've stopped going on weekly hunting trips, lol. |

I think they should increase the elites if they can get a basic set out every month theres no reason why they can't get elites out either every month or every 6 weeks and have 8-9 sets per year.

Agreed. I order online too. It's not even fun trying to find these things in stores anymore.

Basics sets are released once a month for a total of 72 figures a year. I like the idea of every 6 weeks so we would be able to get 9 sets a year which should equal 6 more Flashbacks if it was 2 per series. |

I think they should release 9 series of Elites a year, with 4 figures per series. That way we would still get 36 figures a year, but they can cut out the double-packed figures which are constantly clogging the pegs (Orton, ADR, Rey, Cena, Taker, etc).

They aren't going to stop Cena and Reys though. |

That sounds good to me, it would guarantee at least 12 flashbacks a year and possibly up to as many as 24

I love elites and all, but in my country, the shops don't sell em, and they are too expensive. So, pretty much, yes.

way too expensive. Mattel wouldn't put that financial burden on customers, especially with basics being 1x a month also.

No they need to space crap out further. That is why these lines are not being delivered. By the time series 12 sells out they are already on 14. I would prefer less of everything to be honest. We also wouldn't need as many Rey,Cena, and Orton to fill out the lineups.

Too much imo. I am usually only grabbing about 2 figures per Elite series, sans E19, and it's usually about $60 per order for me. I don't mind it because I get the figures early and everything but doing that every month would force me to stop.

YES even if 12 sets a year is too much, maybe increase it from 6 to 9, that way we get more new talent and flashbacks...definitely need more elite style figures becaus sharing the line with flashbacks has really cut down on spots for new talent/updated attires of current talwnt
