Hacksaw Duggan signed with powertown. Seems like we possibly lost another (seems like a lot lately) for the coliseum collection line.
With his Major Pod Bendies lately, I’m not surprised. But he would have been a good one for this line. Still kicking myself for passing up on his Legends fig at Toys R Us back in the day!

Tito, JYD, Duggan, & Savage. Who else did we recently lose that could of been a part of this line?

I suppose Orndorff too, if that deal with Asylum is exclusive anyway.

Mattel is going to be struggling for flashback/legends content at this rate - in my opinion. They’ve lost several names lately. I worry when Warriors current deal comes up, that the license won’t be renewed

I'm starting to get worried if the legacy part of WWE/Wrestling history is not something Endeavor/TKO prioritizes given the age gap and target demos. I'm sure Steve and the Mattel team would love to continue pushing for collectors but if WWE doesn't sign these legends to merch deals they can't do anything about it.

Regarding Golden Era, Mattel/WWE seems content to make the same legends repeatedly without much branching out: Hogan, Warrior, Andre, Jimmy Hart, DiBiase, Honky, Piper, Sheik, Studd, Beefcake, Valentine. They’ve surprised us a couple times lately with Steele and Albano (was Hillbilly Jim confirmed?), but for flashbacks, the Attitude Era and Monday Night Wars Era are absolutely higher priorities at this point. I love this CC line and crave more, but can’t imagine this line going much further at the current rate things are headed.

Yeah they definitely don't have enough names for this line but if they keep it at the current rate of 2 sets per year we've probably got another 3 years left lol unless they decide to end it due to poor sales which would be understandable at this point

Got my Piper/Steele set delivered today and just took it out of the shipping box.
I noticed something odd, though. There's a piece of tape across the tab on the display box (the tab that inserts into the side to hold the box shut). I've ordered Coliseum Collection sets four other times and never had one with the tab taped down.
Did anyone else receive one like this? Wondering if that's just how they're packaging them now, or if some funny business went on with my order.

Anyone else still stuck on Label Created? I really don't feel like calling Mattel Customer service and dealing with the run around from someone several continents and oceans away.
