I went with Jimmy :The Boogey Woogie Man" Valiant
I always liked him and we need him
I agree on Dibiase+Rogers as well

I'd also like to see new card art for Buddy Rogers. Look for a Limited Edition release in the future.
As for alterntate identities (like DiBiase and Jimmy Valiant), I think we'll start seeing these in regular Legends editons much the same way that we saw updated GWF characters in the COTG.
An alternative is to offer a Legends edition that focuses on alternate identities since the changes are often very significant. Imagine a match between the Missing Link vs. Dewey Robertson or Boogie Woogie Man vs. the current Jimmy Valiant.
Isn't it nice having so many possibilities!

I would always prefer to have actual new superstars as compared to a different version of a current one. For me a new Dibiase, Missing Link, etc... are no big deal. I would be hugely disapointed if we only had one new set of wrestlers in a year and had one set of different gimmick superstars. If it was a 3rd set in a year I would not mind it though. The only superstar that I would use under a different gimmick is possibly Jimmy Valiant as the Boogie Woogie Man but the Valiants as a tag team are actually getting some very impressive wins lately so right now I wouldn't even consider that an option. As for Dibiase, I would never use anything but the Million Dollar Man. He and his stable are really the back bone of my legends fed.

I actually would really like to have a Mid-South Ted DiBiase. I have tried pushing him as the "Million Dollar Man" and I just can't seem to do it.

This might be off topic but, how different would the move set be for a Mid-South DiBiase? I know that the finish would change but from what I have seen, that is about all that would be different.

The art alone would be a nice change...=P
The finish would be different (possibly more, depending on how the Loaded Glove was done)...There's probably at least as much to change as there was on the new Kowalski card.
Heck, maybe even up Mid-South DiBiase's Ring rating to A?

It would make sense for his ring rating to be an "A." Most of the guys from the Mid-South were pretty good brawlers if I remember correctly.

I'd love to see a new Dibiase card with the glove but as a special edition card, a whole set dedicated to alter idenities is something that doesn't interest me I would like sets to stick with fresh new wrestlers not old wrestlers with new faces.
P.S. Tom is there any possibility of a Steve Strong card (IWA)

There'll always be a mix of concepts for our Legends game editions even if we do an Alter Ego theme.
Frank, I'm sorry to say that I'm not familiar with Steve Strong of the IWA, unless I know him by a different name. Anything is possible in the game though.

Tom if you were to go to obsessed with wrestling.com and under profiles select Steve Strong 2 there is a write up on him he was also known as sadistic Steve in the WWF.

Personally, I'd look at new versions of existing wrestlers as a waste, especially in regular sets. They arn't bad as LEs because you can not get them if you choose. I havn't ordered any of the new cards for Valiant or The Road Warriors.
While art is a big part of the look and feel of the game, I'd look at a new card just for new art as trivial. I see nothing wrong with Rogers' card, in fact the drawing is based on one of my favorite pictures of him. I don't get where people think he looks old.
Part of the reason I play Legends way more than Champions is that I don't have to worry about getting updated versions of cards.

I have tried pushing him as the "Million Dollar Man" and I just can't seem to do it. Try giving him more matches.
