The Cena and DDP attires are from the same year. Its not though, the fact Cena comes with firefly funhouse accessories and has the haircut he does means its an attire not even a year old. Im not upset, I don't need it, glad for those who do want it. It's from 2002. The accessories are just add-ons, since he re-wore that attire during the Firefly Funhouse match.  |

I know this DDP is based on the Positively Page gimmick, but it could stand in for 2000 era WCW DDP (without the headset), right? As far as I know, he didn't wear those kind of pants until he got to the WWF. In 2000, he was still wearing the black tights (which he also wore during the Invasion). You may be right. Looks like I may need to find some black tight legs then...

Rereleases of legends and wrestlers allows for some who never got it the first time ... or because the new rendition is a must have and uniquely different. Cool. I get it!
New first time in the lineups are the best. By not having any NEW legends shows what everyone is up against. There are plenty out there ... but the politics, money, difficulties of nailing new ones is just sad to me. Not pointing fingers because I sincerely don't know ... but to have a successful NETWORK devoted to wrestling history and not have the legends who made the sport entertainment as to what it is immortalized with figures is disappointing to me as a OLDER collector who is not getting any younger. Still wish the best for Mattel and WWE! Just wish they would do us old guys a favor they might be surprised how successful it will be in a multitude of facets.

Sure we'll play this semantics game. It's a 2-in-1 figure. One of those attires, as in the default one in the bubble and the one shown on the packaging, is from 2002. |

Sure I understand that the attire originally came from 2002, I'm just saying that the accessories and hair lean it towards a representation of Mania 36 more than it does his 2002 run. Again its all good, im actually happy I don't need to spend more money on figs right now and glad those who want it can get it. No biggie just my observation, it could certainly pass for both. |

It'd be great if WWE would allow Mattel to freely sign legends again and if Mattel would put forth an effort to get the big names we're missing but sadly, I don't think those days are ever coming back. Best we can hope for is WWE gets everyone back in the farm that they can or Jazwares starts scooping names up. |

Im not upset, I don't need it, glad for those who do want it. IDK, the "main" head of the Cena in the packaging is the 2002 haircut and head, with the FFH head and puppet are accessories. This might be pedantic, but to me that 100% makes it a 2002 figure with 2020 bonus accessories. |

The hair on the alt. head does, but the main head is the same one they used on the previous 2002 Cena. |

Some very cool stuff here.
I have the Garza, Rhea, & Sheamus ordered already. And I'm glad I do, they all look great.
I need to order Jeff & Roman too. Glad they were able to get that Roman out so soon.
Love the Legends. Beefcake especially is superb.
Ric Flair & Giant have amazing head scans. Great work.

Either way its cool, happy for the Cena fans. |

None of the figures in legends 10 are re-releases. They're all new figures and in new attires, they're just not debut figures. Rereleased names. Is that better? Vader-2 figures already Ddp- 2 figures already Cena- released a prototype figure already Beefcake-one release a second isn’t so bad This'll be Beefcake's 3rd (4th including the chase) DDP and Vader are very very different parts of their career to previous releases though. |

That Beefcake figure is incredible, I'm so glad we got a dream team Beefcake instead of another Barber figure. That Vader is a major upgrade from previous releases as well. Not interested in any thing else from today.

Hmm. Could probably repaint that Vader head into a decent El Generico custom.

Hopefully we get an Elite Messiah Rollins to match the upcoming Murphy. I’m really digging the new Jeff Hardy Elites as well. Wish he would’ve came with the mesh shirt instead of a t-shirt, but I’m just glad to have his new back tat on the figure. I think my favorite (surprisingly) has to be the new Reigns. I love how it’s like a two in one figure (like E79 Bryan), where it can be either “Big Dog” Reigns or “Tribal Chief” Reigns. Love it!

In my opinion, DDP looks the best in this series.
Beefcake is very well done, but I don't need another one. People who missed out on his earlier figures should be happy with how this new one turned out.
I'm not a fan of Vader's attire choice, but what other options would you have at this point without a straight up re-release? He looks VERY good though.
Cena is a neat idea and does look good but it's an easy pass as I have the TRU exclusive debut one already.
