Dudley Boyz. Yes they were only under contract for a year but Attitude Era versions shoulda been fast tracked. Especially if they knew they were on such a short term deal. Theyâre passable figures though, and have the potential to be resigned. Snukaâs figure is an abomination and he wonât be resigned. |

Ultimate Warrior Royal Rumble '90 I think was a big dissapointment/blunder. That's top of my list. The hair colour was wrong, the face scan expressions. Its like they are trying to save money on tooling to do the right face scan, and then just giving it a quick repaint and then just saying "here, give me your money"
Also Hart Foundation Bret Hart. That makes me angry to look at it. The face scan is bad. Hairstyle mold is nothing like Bret Hart.

The attire, maybe if you donât care about accuracy, but heads are completely different. |

If this list is true, I'd buy Albano and Maivia in a heartbeat.
I'd buy Mr. Perfect if it's an Ultimate. I already have three figures of him, but I really want a UE version.
I would probably buy Snoop, depending on price and what it looks like.
The Gooker, I have no interest in at all.

Heard it from a reputable source on Insta that we have the following Legends to look forward to next year! Peter Maivia Captain Lou Albano Snoop Dog Mr Perfect Gobbledy Gooker Interesting list. I'd get all except for Snoop Dog. Lou Albano seems like he could be in the Coliseum Collection line. Gobbledy Gooker makes the most sense for the Survivor Series line, even as the build-a-figure. Though, special packaging that includes the stand and giant egg would be unique. Peter Maivia seems like the hardest to find a place for, I wonder if they will do a two-pack of him and the Rock. |

Who could you put him though the best?! |

I'll take Mr. Perfect if he's substantially improved, and I may take Snoop if he looks good. Captain Lou should look really cool, but he's before my time and my shelf space is limited, so I'll pass.

Who could you put him though the best?! Hard to pick, he did manage guys like Snuka and Muraco, he could go with either of them. He also managed George Steele. He was on the segment of Piper's pit that introduced Cindi Lauper, he could come with Piper, but I think Piper would go better with Orton or Orndorff. We may never get Dynamite Kid, so he could go with Davey Boy Smith. |

Did yâall see Target Legends pre orders up now? I just ordered Ultimate Warrior. They also had Shamrock, Hbk and Bob Orton. Might be old news but Iâve been out of the loop.

Doubt we will ever get Snuka again Only if the Muraco figure comes with a half-eaten meatball sub accessory! |

Patterson: âWhat a slob.â Said with such disdain.
And Albano slipping on the sub, and Vince calling Albano a fat slob while Muraco tries to not laugh. đ
And Vinceâs commentary when the camera zooms in on the sub at the very end. âThatâs gross! Thatâs horrible!â Hilarious, especially considering if thatâs what he thought was gross back then, and knowing all that was to follow over the years.

Series 17 is Shawn Michaels, Ken Shamrock (he is the chase), AJ Styles and Dingo Warrior. Series 19 is Hulk Hogan, Paul E Dangerously, Fatu and Samu (both are the chase). Those pre-orders havenât gone up yet. Legends have been insanely easy to find at retail lately though, so many are holding off on ordering them. Considering they pop up at retail first. |

I got myself the Bob Orton figure. I think a lot of people will overlook it, but itâs probably one of my favourite figures once I got it in my hands. Cannot wait to grab Shamrock. |

Theyâre passable figures though, and have the potential to be resigned. Snukaâs figure is an abomination and he wonât be resigned. The Snuka figure was quite good actually. The headscan was solid. Legs could've been thicker but that can be said for lots of mattel's wrestling figures. The attire isn't his most popular look but seems like an instance of Mattel wanting to do something different than what Jakks had done a couple of years earlier. |

This is probably #2 on my "Mattel Dropped the Ball" list. They should have placed her into a Basic assortment asap. I tried bro. The irresistible force met the immovable object unfortunately. WAS THAT A HINT? IS GORILLA CONFIRMED>? LOL just kidding, Happy New Year, and keep up the great work |

Are all celeb WWE HOFers fair game for WWE to make?
If so, we need Fred Durst in the HOF ASAP.

Lou Albano, Mavia and of course hopefully a retooled Mr. Perfect for me.
