Continuing from Mattel Legends 7-10 here: Series 11: The Breakdown: Legends gets back on track here with a good lineup. Savage is the gem of the set, in both versions, but Bam Bam Bigelow is also a very underrated figure. Big John is fine, but Scott Hall has one of the worst headscans in years….

Starting with Elite Series 63, Mattel began including Chase Figures into the main Elite lines. The main rule of thumb: The parts cannot be changed, just deco. Usually they would be current roster talent but occasionally they would be Legends/Flashback figures. This practice of including Chase Figures into the waves continued into the Target Exclusive…

This got me to thinking, I need a checklist. As discussed previously, I have a need for filling the gaps in my collection. Hasbros: The…
