Missed opportunity

Just in time to start your Christmas wish list, McFarlane is coming out with Series 6 of its NHL Legends series. Due for release in December, the four-figure set features Boston's Cam Neely (looks just like him, doesn't it?), Toronto's maskless Johnny Bower, Detroit's Gordie Howe and the eighth version of Wayne Gretzky, showing him as a Ranger during his final NHL game.

Gretzky and Howe in the same set? I'm surprised McFarlane didn't put out a two-piece set replicating their famous photo of Gretzky, as a youngster, with Howe. Now that would be a collector's item.
