I think they've gotta be working on a Paul Heyman ECW figure, with ECW-hat and long black trench coat.... I love all the calls for WCW Manager Harley Race.... Hoping they surprise us with a King Haku. Is this where they give is "Sister Sherri" to go with the recent MNW Harlem Heat? I'm sure there will be another Hogan in here somewhere, but what look? I'd say a re-tooling of the crowdfund WCW Hogan, but they just did WCW Hogan in the Legends line not far back. They seem to be on an Ed Leslie kick, so maybe another Brutus The Barber Beefcake? There are tons of looks they haven't touched yet.... I also feel like there SHOULD be a Bull Nakano coming, since she was inducted into the HOF. The Legends Line might be the best place to put this. It's also been quite a while since they did Alundra Blayze, so maybe a re-paint or straight-up re-release to go with Nakano? And I still feel that they've gotta give us the standard WCW Black-trunks/white boots Lex Luger SOMEWHERE.... maybe that goes here too. Yeah, I can't believe they haven't made that look yet - besides the basic. It was his most used look/attire during the height of the Monday Night Wars.

This is the version of Brutus Beefcake that I want made. From Survivor Series 1989 and Wrestlemania VI. It's a bit enfuriating. After the last few years we have had Rookie AJ Styles, (pegwarmed) Rookie Ultimate Warrior (pegwarmed) Japan Hogan (pegwarmed) Sultan (complete wasted spot). They could have used one of these spots for this Brutus Beefcake figure. It wouldn't have sold any worse.

They could have used one of these spots for this Brutus Beefcake figure. It wouldn't have sold any worse. Honestly, and this is just me, I'm starting to think someone on that Mattel decisions team has a soft spot for figures that would go on my planned shelf of "Why/how did this figure get made???" Because every one of those figures fits on that shelf perfectly, along with figures before it like Farrooq Asad, Zodiac, Goon, Mean Mark Callous, and yes, the crown jewel of the collection, the Gookerman himself. So many of these figures haven't just warmed, they've ROTTED. Nobody asked for the majority of these figures, and the collectors market for them is niche at best. But they keep being made, and I'm starting to think either Bill or someone else really just likes making some seriously obscure figures out of self indulgent reasons. But, for me? I welcome them. I'm working on a whole collection and someday I hope to proudly display all of them together on a single shelf, with Gooker, Yankem, and Shockmaster front and center in places of pride.

The way this series is going? I predict the line will end before series 26.
Legends 22, 23, and now the greatest flops line....

Chances of another Hogan are high with Mattel releasing Hogan in every Legends wave it seems.
I would like Mattel to release Scott Steiner from around 1998-2000 WCW run.

Couldn't find a better picture but just imagine ...a Jake the Snake Roberts in this red attire from Saturday Nights Main Event 1986 vs Macho Man Randy Savage in Legends packaging. Would look great in box, it's simple to make. We haven't got Jake the Snake Roberts in red attire. The only thing is Jake Roberts still under contract? I have been asking that since last year's SDCC. Seems like they are hoping that no one notices so that they are not asked about it. I would happily buy these types of repaints of top names over obscure names that initially get a quick chuckle when it's first revealed but then rot away on pegs because no one really wants them.

Legends 3 pack with Make a difference fatu And the Samoan gangsters since both members are under deal Would it make more sense to put Fatu (make a difference attire) with his two sons in a 3 pack?

No because this version of Rosey and samu would sell way better with that version of fatu more than they would separately they all 3 tie together into the new gen era plus I don't think many people remember the ecw run run they had to make them singles with chases. It should be red or black leather street gear outfit rikishi with the usos if they are going to do one
