Did I ever say that I didn't care to see anymore Hogans or Warriors? I understand they make them because they sell. But so did alot of other figures, yet they only stick to those two! Every series has a Warrior or Hogan now, you telling me that isn't a tad disapointing to say another person? You didn't get where I was coming from with the Al Snow remark, it had nothing to do with status. Al Snow still isn't up there in my opinion compared to others I've mentioned. But what I meant was, there is not any reason as to why he should be classified to classic since I see enough of him on TV to consider him just another name on the roster. What show are you watching? Snow hasn't been a regular on any show (besides Tough Enough) in YEARS, His last ECW run got him.....3 TV matches in a year. That's pretty much on par with other "Legend" guys they've had on the roster, hell, I think Ron Simmons has done more than that. Hell, Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair and Triple H all have "Classic Superstars" figures, and they're on TV on a weekly basis! I think this is just "I don't like Al Snow, why won't they make such and such instead" more than anything. And there's nothing wrong with that, but so far, I'm having trouble with your logic. You're not "nostalgic" about Al, well thats fine. But a mid-90's Snow is just as "Classic" as Blue Blood HHH, or Ministry Taker.

I get the Classic Superstars exclusively, I have everyone so far however I'm really motivated to stop getting certain people because of the following people: Al Snow Droz Johnny Rodz Mae Young Tank Abbott Shane McMahon Seriously, besides maybe the exception of Snow and Shane, what did the other accomplish? They were either comedy relief or a complete miss, or both! Snow belongs in for sure, but I'm super, super pissed about his figure, where they chose to include a styrofoam "head" in instead of the real Head (probably because they're scared of a bunch of bible thumping hicks crying like last time that "Al Snow murders and rapes women then cuts off their heads) Johnny Rodz was apparently an influential trainer, but I know nothing about him. Droz....eh, I take pity on him for being paralyzed, so give the guy a figure. Everyone else, get f***ed. ESPECIALLY Tank Abbott. What a joke. he gets the foam head because thats what he had in ECW at first (they used to hand them out to everyone in the arena just for his entrances) and everyone just bc you dont like Al Snow doesn't mean he isn't a good wrestler and he isn't entertaining....will I pay retail for his figure? no but that doesn't mean I woudln't buy it on sale and what exactly defines a "legend" or "classic" superstar seeing as the line is called "classic" instead of "legend, see WWE hall of fame".......sure I wish some people would be put in this figure line (ex. Austin, Owen, Savage, New Jack, Blue Meanie or BWO 3 pack, Jerry Lynn, Mike Awesome, Tanaka, ect.) sure most of those won't ever happen but I can hope and you can't say that they haven't been important to wrestling bc each of them has their own place in wrestling history in the 80's and 90's

I remember the crowd had foam heads, but I thought the Head Al originally found in ECW was a plastic one....I'm sure the only reason thats what Jakks is doing (foam) is because of the dumb b****es that cried last time a Head was made.....
