I'm unable to understand why people are upset on snoop dog fig.... It's not in a regular line and neither in Ultimate line.

 I hope we see Haku, Koko and Mr. Fuji too. If the figures mentioned in the OP are slated for the Legends line, it fits together for me. Haku, Koko, and Fuji are all guys who would warrant a main line slot, imo. The others are more niche. |

So we can't go based on these lists to much. I'd rather the crank out these first time guys Haku King version, and Islanders early heel heenan family look would be great, plus you complete another tag team in the Colossal Connection. Koko B Ware popular star in the 80's early 90's helped elevate a lot of heels such as Martel when he transitioned into the Model. Mr. Fuji and Captain Lou manager long overdue. High Chief Peter Maivia the odd Legend that people don't really deman, but makes a fantastic figure Jakks CS was pretty good, but Mattel can knock him out of the park. Lots of stuff we've been asking for but would love for Steve to get the One Man Gangs rights back. |

Strongbow wasn’t pulled due to licensing, what happened there was an entirely different thing (that I don’t care enough about to debate I’m just saying it wasn’t licensing like Sting being pulled) |

I’d buy a Snoop figure so quick lol probably 2 I preordered super 7 biggie. (which looks incredible) If Snoop is really part of the line it would be an instant buy. Along with Mr. Perfect and Captain Lou! |

Strongbow wasn’t pulled due to licensing, what happened there was an entirely different thing (that I don’t care enough about to debate I’m just saying it wasn’t licensing like Sting being pulled) Exactly. And there have been situations where rights were available and they just didn't get used. Tatsumi Fujinami was available and I think Bill flat out said once they just couldn't justify including him when most of the audience has zero clue who he is. Marlena was available for some time after Dustin left and never made it into the line. And it looks like Johnny Rodz may be available, but I'd be shocked if he gets a figure. But Steve and the team have done an incredible job of finding some way to include just about anyone they can over the last few years. |

The list are people that we were speculating are available to make not necessarily proof 100 percent that they will be made or get released. That's obviously up to Mattel and WWE. Jay was available, was made and set for release (some even made it out). |

Is reputable source Buddy from Buddy's toy shop or some random Target stock person? If neither, I don't know if I trust this.

Can’t say upset, but I know it’d be an easy pass for me and I’d rather the wrestling figures be made of wrestlers. No Knoxville, no Snoop, no Gronk, no Jake Paul. I mean, not mad about it. Would just prefer they not be made. No reason to be, in my opinion. |

I hope we see Haku, Koko and Mr. Fuji too. Glad my post popped back up! I was looking for it. Adding to this list since then - Stevie Ray Afa Sika Chuck Norris George Steele Justin Hawk Bradshaw Captain Lou Albano The Great Khali K-Kwik If you keep track you’ll see stars like Bischoff, RVD, Stacey Keibler, Wolfpac Luger (among others) have been licensed elsewhere and ended up as figures. |

Was it clarified from Instagram that these figures, if legit, are supposed to be in the Legends line?
I took the OPs post that these "Legends" are rumored to be released at some point. Not necessarily that they all will be released in the Legends line. I may have missed something though since I'm not sure who posted it on Instagram.

Aww man, I would've loved a Fujinami figure. They could've paired him with Flair from the WCW/NJPW Supershow!
But yeah, they've done a great job of getting people out when they've had access to them. This is an extraordinarily far-reaching line given the limitations on it. |

Like Todd in the Shadows said, "if people have to choose between you and Snoop Dogg, you lose every time." Bring on Snoop!

Marlena was available for some time after Dustin left and never made it into the line. This is probably #2 on my "Mattel Dropped the Ball" list. They should have placed her into a Basic assortment asap. |

Bad part selection and or attire choices. #3 is no top with the Hall of Fame Macho King figure. That's my full list, just 3 things. |
