Of all the talent to go out and sign for licensing opportunities, why on earth is the signature of The Goon being prioritised over some of bigger names that are still out there and indeed signing with other companies to produce figures?
It doesn’t make sense.

I'm always game for another Quake, I don't need another Yoko really though unless it's a big improvement over the one I have.
I'd only want to get Jimmy depending on what attire he's wearing (if it's Hart Foundation, Nasty Boys, Natural Disasters or Mega Maniacs).

Yokozuna seems like an odd choice, they already released that attire and robe from that event. I do like the idea of the Canadian Earthquake, and if Jimmy Hart is in his matching attire. BAF Vince is great, I wonder if it will be from the attitude era, in a suit or in the Raw jacket? I wonder which era the Bret, Shawn and Austin are going to be for the WrestleMania elites. Personally I would like WM6 for Michaels and WM8 for Bret. Not sure how accurate the leaks are but they show images of Bret Hart from Mania 4,Michaels from 25, Austin X-Seven. Not actual figures but stills from those manias. That person said those were just random pictures. The AJ picture wasn’t even a mania attire

It doesn’t make sense. Why does it mean he is prioritized? If everyone who is offered a legends deal signed one, then Mattel wouldn't know what to do with everyone who is available to them. WWE can't force people to accept.

I assume if the mania elites are true I’d hope for WM8 Bret to go with new roddy WM17 Austin WM19 hbk 2019 styles

Not sure how legit but I saw the following Royal Rumble elites (BAF Jimmy Hart): Big E 2020 Earthquake 1990 Dakota Kai 2020 Yokozuna 1993 Wrestlemania elites (BAF Vince): AJ Styles HBK SCSA Hitman The Goon (E89 Walmart) and Chief Jay Strongbow (E90 Target) Top Picks 2022: Goldberg Reigns Jeff Hardy Also has UE11 as Undertaker and Kane and confirms the E89-91 sets as previously noted in earlier pages as well as Legends 13 Yokozuna seems like an odd choice, they already released that attire and robe from that event. I do like the idea of the Canadian Earthquake, and if Jimmy Hart is in his matching attire. BAF Vince is great, I wonder if it will be from the attitude era, in a suit or in the Raw jacket? I wonder which era the Bret, Shawn and Austin are going to be for the WrestleMania elites. Personally I would like WM6 for Michaels and WM8 for Bret. That Yokozuna was inaccurate to both his white pants and bearded eras, plus there’s only so much you can do with Yoko. Other than the white pants with the red wrap I think they’ve done everything they could possibly do (unless there’s a non WWE attire I don’t know about)

WWE can't force people to accept. Prioritised in the sense that if this is true, he’s in a lineup before a lot of more in-demand names that are (and were) available to license. My thinking here is WWE couldn’t / wouldn’t go after names like Jeff Jarrett, Hercules, Koko B. Ware or Mr Fuji, etc. but sought time and effort to sign up The Goon. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for new characters. This one just seems a little more on the bizarre side to me.

I know it's not the majority, but a lot of people moan about repeating legends and having the same characters made over and over. Well here are two new people. I know they're not for everyone, but if these tank then Mattel can't say they didn't try.

We're now 10+ years into the line... I'll take any FTITL Legends they can get(!). Having said that though, I've actually been hoping for a Chief Jay Strongbow figure.
(... yes, I am old...)

I’m all on board for a new Yoko because 1) I missed the previous ones and 2) the true FX could improve the headscan. I don’t need to recount the issues that true fx had in the beginning but for display purposes it can’t be beat. As much as it seems like they’re re releasing a bunch of previously done wrestlers, if they’re making improvements I think it’s fine

I need a Yokozuna figure so IDGAF how many times they've made him prior to my getting back in the game, this is a win for me if true. Attires would entirely dictate the WM wave for me. 35 for AJ and 14 for HBK, and since they've already done that HBK in a previous wave and the AJ as a Basic, I'm not gonna hold my breath.

Colonel Mustafa is hitting overseas in Australia and New Zealand.
So hopefully it will not be too long until he hits in the states.

I want to know how signing The Goon to a legends deal happened. Who is making that decision? Was Damien Demento not available so they went with whoever else they could get?
