I don't see this legend series lasting that long at Target.

I’m really looking forward to the next series, so hopefully Target gets its act together by then.

I realize the Sting thing was out of there hands but every store I have been at in the last month has full pegs of Heenan and Razor, which is absolutely not what you wanna see a few weeks into a new line.

Didn't he have a shin guard with an image of a broken bone airbrushed on it? When was that?

Finally got my Hammer pre orders. One regular, one chase. So it was worth the wait.
Of course the next day a yellow Hammer was right in the front of the peg when I stopped at Target for work supplies...

Not sure I will ever do early preorders on Target Legends series again.
Especially if the figures are placed on shelves first before preorders are fulfilled.

Eg. King Harley Race.

Got cancellation email this morning. Checked on it yesterday and saw it needed approval but when I clicked to approve an error message would pop up. Never got an email to approve it. I guess this is where the journey ends. Hopefully L8 is handled better.

The only reason I did it the first time is because AFA Steve was encouraging and asking us to do, saying if this went well the first time it would be an ongoing thing. On paper it sounded like a great idea, except Target and WWE screwed it up at every turn.

So glad I cancelled my preorders. This valentine debacle was the final nail in the coffin for me with collecting Mattel’s flashbacks. They look great, if you can ever find them. I can only imagine the headache that international collectors experience. I’m glad to have grown up in the jakks era where we never saw this type of distribution problems. Things were just easier then.

I'm not as disappointed as some here, but I think the line MAY do better as an online (Ringside?) exclusive. And before anyone talks about RSC having a niche market, please remember how well legends did at retail its first run as a mass retail release. And it seems that if the line failed at mass retail, then online (Mattycollector), and it looks like it's a disappointing store exclusive so far, then maybe it should be at an outlet geared towards the niche market this set targets.
