You had me with you up until "Killer Bees"....... Then I realized this had to be a joke. I'd love to have a set of those guys. Fantastic tag team that must never won the big one. I hate have the Harts, Sheik/Volkoff, and no Bees or Bulldogs.

Didn’t they show a ton of stuff at Wrestlemania already? Maybe I’m wrong. But I feel like they showed a ton of stuff at Wrestlemania.

Sting...... Road Warriors..... Not necessarily knocking The Bees but it was just a weird group

The fact that Mattel is even trying to say that "The Sultan" & "Fake Diesel" are FTITL Figs is a joke it's self. It's freaking Kane & Rikishi. So really the only true new legends were getting is Peter Miavia. Would you say an Indiana Jones toy is Han Solo?

So really the only true new legends were getting is Peter Miavia. Would you say an Indiana Jones toy is Han Solo? Kane is really an evil dentist, and they got word of it and banned him from ever being a dentist, so he could no longer be a dentist, so he started pretending to be Diesel, then got bored and started pretending to be Undertaker's brother, how he got those fire powers is anyone's guess After Fatu tried and failed to make a difference, he was so embarrassed, he shaved most of his hair and put on that mask, he got bored of that and bleached his hair, and then he started to dance and become too cool Han Solo was living a double life, his alter ego was Indiana Jones, whenever space got too stressful, he went down to earth, and quickly back to space, after Return Of The Jedi, he thought it was finally over and permanently went back to earth to continue being Indiana Jones, then 2015 came along, and he was called back to space, Indy was devastated, he never wanted to go back to space again, so he came up with a plan, and faked his death, now he will forever remain Indiana Jones, lets hope the Jedi's don't find out So yes, an Indiana Jones figure is a Han Solo figure

At this point, I’m starting to hope more than ever a 1/6 high end company swoops in and gets the wwe licence. I think Mattel do a good job. I’ve been higher on the product in the past. My biggest gripe is the lack of information about Macho UE cancelation. If only they had a way of communicating to their consumers what happened??? 🙄 I’d love to see Enterbay, Threezero or Hot Toys get the license and make super high end 1/6 scale figures. Start with the legends and release 4-6 per year. Yes I know Storm made Hogan, but without anyone else at the scale, it’s seems a little narrow to add them. SDCC was a little flat for me this year. Certainly not bad, just flat. The assumption that Mattel can really comment own the specifics of this is a a stretch IMO.

For a variety of reasons they may only be able to say-"that specific talent isn't available to them" anymore etc etc.

Your schtick has run its course, it’s tired now. The whole buddy’s toy shop, the stupid bidding wars, the taking off work for ComicCon showings. Not going on vacation to watch reveals. If that last part was in some unfathomable way true, I hope your girl was squealing with pleasure catching back shots from Dexter St. Joc

Hasbro need to release a "Faces Of Ford" 3-pack: Han Solo, Indiana Jones, Rick Deckard 😎

Certainly not bad, just flat. Wwe wouldn't allow them to only produce 5 figures a year. It's safe to say the amount Mattel is pumping out, wwe is very happy in this relationship. Hasbro on the other hand...

I’m OK with FTITL characters when they’re obviously pretending they’re new characters and not acknowledging who they were before. Like if they did Repo Man then I would consider him FTITL. If they did Big Josh or Matt Borne then they would be FTITL. Mr America is a very funny tongue & in cheek FTITL figure. But 123 Kid, Syxx, and X-Pac are all the same character and only the first figure should get that distinction. Same with William and Steven Regal.

Honestly looking at all these names being thrown out, I’d love an Ultimate Sable and Luna, and an Elite Severn. Outside that? Meh none scream most have for me so I’m ok if they aren’t signed.

On a separate note, I'm happy that Mattel is releasing other characters/gimmicks/deep cuts. It's a good way to freshen up the line although I don't think they should do it back to back like they are with Hogan.

“Abysmal showing” “Mattel line may be finished sooner than later” This gimmick has run it’s course. 🥱 Followed by “these legends MUST be signed… Killer Bees and Hercules Hernandez” Now don’t get me wrong id be all about Mattel signing those two but im a legends only collector. To think that Mattel would be “finished” because they didn’t sign B. Brian Blair is hilariously obtuse.

It was his first time in WWF and the gimmick had absolutely no connection to his WCW gimmick.
