Which Legends figures would you like to see new versions of because you were not content with the first versions?
So far for me, they are:
Rick Rude - I'm ok with everything but the tights. I like the short haired WCW look, but gotta have better tights.
Jimmy Snuka - This figure would be fine if Jimmy had the goatee, which was part of his look when he wore the long tights, boots and afro hair.

Not sure if it's officially a legends figure, but that SDCC Ministry of Darkness Undertaker was a great one.

DM Hogan for sure. Because I was so excited for it. The pics got me more excited. Got the figure yesterday at TRU opened it up. Very disappointed. The shirt doesnt close, the saving grace would have been the belt, but even that doesn't fit anyone- except maybe Andre. I am hoping that Mattel is trying to get expectations for a nWo Hollywood Hogan really low and then blow us away. Honestly, could have passed on DM Hogan and just gotten the Elite 34 Hogan. |

Snuka & Rude for sure. As a huge rude fan I would have loved the long hair and maybe more vibrant attire. Snuka should have been barefoot with trunks.

Definitely the torso they gave him was underwhelming. I was hoping in person it would look bigger and more imposing, but that was not the case. People can defend that torso all they want, but it's abysmal. |

We're beating a dead horse here, so I say the same early legends people been complaining about for years.

I watched Jimmy Snuka move from the Mid-Atlantic to Georgia to the WWF and I don't know what look the Legends figure is based on.
Another guy I watched move from the Mid-Atlantic to Georgia to the WWF that I would love a figure of is Roddy Piper. The scan on the Legends version is terrible.

Liz and JBL from Flashbacks. Hopefully APA Bradshaw will be good. Maybe we can get nwo Liz down the road and Mattel can give Liz another shot. From the Legends series, I will go with the Von Erich's. Didn't care for them very much. I was fine with Tornado but didn't feel we needed Kerry as well and that didnt help my opinion of this one. Kevin is boring figure. Also lack of accessories with Pillman hurt his figure as well I thought.

Actually Snuka did occasionally wear long tights and boots throughout his career in the WWF. Back in the early 80's every month they would air an event from MSG on the MSG Network and there were a few times back then that he wrestled in long tights and boots. Other times he would wear trunks with boots. (usually in the winter months) But most of the time it was barefooted in trunks. Which is the look I would have liked to see. But it was still my favorite figure from that set because it was Snuka.

Make a Snuka with bare feet. Mr Perfect with a better torso, not so tall.

My bad...I misread the title. lol Underwelmed: Every HHH figure until about 2012. (when they updated the head scan for him) Mr Perfect elite legends series 2. (hate how they made him look so scronny) New basic Ricky Steamboat. Austin's elite figures don't really do it for me either. Kinda the same problem as with Perfect. Too skinny looking. |

Snuka- his face was weird, he had long tights, and his legs were so freakin' thin.
Rude- he had a peanut head.
Steamboat- same as Rude.
DM Hogan- something is off with his face.
Mr. P- is not 7' tall.
Crush- face is off.

Bruno... though I don't know what I was expecting for a hairy guy in trunks. Nah, jk.
DM Hogan definitely. Legends Terry Funk is another one, while it portrays the best times in his career (like NWA, not WWF) it's not the most interesting attire.

For what I have so far, iron sheik with pants for me. I was so excited to update my jakks version but when I got him his articulation was horrible! also the scale was a bit on the small side
