I had to approve another delay for mine as well. Greg is estimated for August 21, I guess, September 3, but I'm not getting my hopes up. I still think I'll get it eventually, so in that sense I haven't given up all hope. Ordered mine together on May 11. Razor arrived on August 7, and Bobby the day after. Got so mad at myself attempting to fix Razor's chains; I was maneuvering it around his hair with a knife I use all the time, not thinking the knife had any real sharpness to it. I nicked Razor's beard ever so slightly, and now whenever I look at it, I zero in on that cut like Austin Powers did The Mole lol. it's plenty of those razors and Bobby heenan's out there just take it back and get another one LOL.

Got my two Valentines. Both had shipping stickers on the plastic windows of the packaging. I am returning them to Target today.

I will keep that in mind in the future. I am sure Target will do it with Legends 8.

Keep it, don’t cancel regardless. For every one they have cancelled they gave me a $20 gift card each.

Still waiting on mine. I too had to approve another delay. Ordered Greg and Razor on the same day. Got Razor a few weeks ago.

I just had to approve another delay this morning - to September 4th. Now, I’m just irritated.

Ugh just had to approve another delay until 9/4; however, there is credit card charge to match now.

Yup 9/4 for me as well. This is beyond frustrating.

the thing that makes ZERO sense to me is my story with these pre-orders:
the morning the set went up I pre-ordered all 3 at the same time on the same order.
then, Valentine was still up so I pre-ordered a 2nd one. just valentine. figured i'd take the chance at getting the chase out of one of the orders, or at the very least i could help someone out on here who couldn't find him
after all the weird delays, the heenan and razor came from my first order. the valentine came from my 2nd order (the one where i ordered just greg) in separate boxes too....but the greg i ordered WITH razor & heenan has been delayed like 4 times now

🖕🏻 Target. Think I’m done preordering the legends series from target. I know Steve and then said this was a good thing, but I would almost rather just take my chances and drive. Seems like every one else has had bette luck doing that anyways. This makes me want to just cancel all my legend 8 preorders as well as my two orders for valentines.

Either way seems to be a roll of the dice at this point. I missed the preorders and found plenty of Legends 7 (including two Chase Valentine’s) at stores. Being able to pick them out without having to worry about crushed boxes and stickers was a plus.
But I am worried about finding Legends 8 as easily. With four figures instead of three we essentially will have to find three figures that are only packed one to a case, plus the chase.

They just pushed mine back for a fourth time. September 4 now. Ugh. Still haven’t found him in stores. Every Target just has two Brains hanging.

This whole thread has me thinking.
Why in the hell is it always this weird out of left field stuff when it comes to legends/flashbacks in the elite series? For real, you never see this stuff with like a regular series elite Roman or Cena. Or anyone that’s currently on the roster. It’s always the ones that really apply to collectors or adults. First time in the line NXT figures is the closest to modern day as it gets. But stuff like that and legends ALWAYS seem to find some new and exciting issue to have that collectors and consumers have to in turn deal with.

Good point, I’ve always felt the same about this issue. Luckily I’ve managed to find Valentine at my local target today and wasn’t even looking for it really. Legends are the only figures from Mattel that I’ve ever bought and this and the Razor Ramon were two I wanted for my collection but over the years couldn’t help but notice it’s getting a lot harder to find certain Legends/80s& 90s Superstars in local stores which kept me from really hunting hard....if I find em I find em if I don’t I don’t...

I already got two. Found one in store and another through a Facebook group. Was able to make R&B and have a regular for display. No longer need the ones I preordered but I’m gonna ride it out til the end.

I was smiled upon and somehow stumbled upon a Target tonight that freshly stocked these. Six Heenans, one Razor and one Valentine. I grabbed a Valentine, which was a chase — but what the hell is with that ratio?
Good luck with the future of this line Mattel, sheesh.
