I got my order in Friday and it looks fantastic (I havent used all the cards yet but a recent Dr.Cube-Crossbones match went really well). Even though i dont like the "block print backround" on the cards , the shading of the ink makes the cards really feel and look shiney (feel OMGs belly if you dont believe me lol)! My favorite art are the French Angel ,Adrian Street , and OMG. I plan on using RVD as a tag wrestler and Bryan Danielson elsewhere so there is know real "World champion" card for my feds but I do like the mix of the eras and the new wrestlers are easily added to my feds without a major re-shuffling of line-ups
I plan on elevating my Heritage wrestlers and Pesek will go into the tour , OMG will go into the World tour, Roop & Angel will fill neatly in a new Internation tour , Snow & D-Lo will go into my hardcore fed , Adrian Street will go into my Americas tour , Banner will join the womens ranks , while the Love Brothers will join the tag ranks along with the team of RVD & Sabu! And of course the midgets will wrestle for the Midget Championship !!

Got my cards today and all I can say is amazing work. Really like the look of the stats and the art is phenomenal. As I stated in the Original's art thread, I would have liked to see some of the art a bit closer to really appreciate the detail and just look of it. But more of a preference than a complaint. Really looking forward to seeing how these lot all blend into my various feds.
Top notch work by all!
I sadly did not get one of the Bock cards but did get a Werner Mutant sketch on my envelope so that is probably cooler! I wouldn't mind seeing what the artwork for Bock looks like either way. Any chance we could get a small image posted to show it off?

I received my set today as well but no Bock card Anyhoo, the drawings are simply amazing! (can't be said enough) Probably one of the best sets, if not the best set in the Legends line. Looking forward to see how this crop fares in my feds.

I got my set Saturday. I let it sit til the evening then busted it open. I always look at the card art for each wrestler first, then read the booklet, then check out the card stats, yes in that order. No Bockwinkel card, no biggy. Really good looking set, not my favorite, but definitely has a couple of my favorite cards to date, i.e. RVD & Gang. The art is top notch, though not a big fan of the full body Bob Roop card. The stats look really good and the mechanics on a few of them are really cool. Midgets are awesome as well. And lastly, personal preference, but I like the wrestler's name on the front of the card better than without. Great job guys, now the wait til the next set

I was hospitalised on July 4th with a serious illness and have just got out. While I was in, mam brought in Legends Originals and I thoroughly enjoyed reading the booklet and studying the cards. I love the art on the Adrian Street card the best.
The set made my day! Cheers guys!

No Bockwinkel card for me either. Oh well, you can't miss what you never had!
No names on the front. It's different but I don't hate it...I can learn to get used to it.
RVD should have - 5 agility..I mean c'mon. The guy doesn't climb to the top rope, he LEAPS up there! He's every bit as agile as Tiger Mask if not MORE! John Pesek is gonna be fun, playing the "Arn" role to Ed The Strangler's "Ric".

I think they got it pegged pretty right with the RVD agility. RVD is going to be more agile then about 95 percent of the guys in LOW/LOTF. Tiger Mask was in a league of his own, just dominant and spectacular. I am not so sure that RVD was more agile than fellow LOW guys Sabu and Liger. Both Liger and Sabu were simply amazing in what they could do in the ring also.
