With all the great Jake Elites in the Legends line, who needs a basic?

Because nobody who’s old enough to like Jake Roberts or collect that era , don’t care for a basic? I love this narrative. It comes up every time someone asks why we haven't gotten legend x, y, or z as a Basic. Someone asserts that nobody with any sort of awareness of such legends would ever lower themselves to buying Basics, and then somebody else inevitably stamps it out with the fact that they buy Basics because, believe it or not, people buy Basics. Mattel has put out like 4 Jakes in the past year, not counting the others that is already out, and you have people asking for basics? Lol Just buy the elite |

We will get Bronson Reed, confirmed by AFA He once confirmed legends sting too. Steve said Crow Sting from L7 will eventually see release? |

Can all the mentions of L7 Sting please be deleted and that figure never be spoken about again? It still hurts.

I collect basics, I want more basic legends. Not a hard concept to understand really is it. |

Jake Roberts got a Basic years ago in the two pack with Dean Ambrose. And nothing since. I don’t buy elites. It’s time for a new basic with a more popular attire. |

I used to buy them while of waiting for the elite version or if I needed parts for a head/arm/hand/pad swap. Since they changed the articulation on basics, the only basics I bought were Dana Brooke, Rhyno, and suited figures. I hate the swivel elbows. ELBOWS DON’T SWIVEL! |

ITT: people who can't comprehend that collectibles, like just about everything else done or consumed in the interest of fun or pleasure, are subjective.
Who TF is really that put out over whether or not somebody else buys Basics?
More Elites for you.

They kinda phased out flashback basics for a while. Now you’ve seen em pop up in the main line sporadically, plus they’re in the championship showdown and PPV lines.

Not everyone can afford to drop £20 a time on one figure. Stop thinking everyone else has the same disposable as you. I put them on the shelf and don’t pose them so why would I pay extra for articulation I don’t use. Not everyone collects the same. No need to be disrespectful. |

No need to be disrespectful. Didn't mean any disrespect, but your first reply was snarky, which is irritating...You can collect however you like, and I certainly understand money being tight. I don't need the extra articulation either, but there's more of a difference than just that. I'm a big Jake fan though, so hopefully they do make another Basic...and an Ultimate! |
