Below you will find a rank list I put together based on my thoughts (from seeing tournaments, streams, decks here at hearthpwn etc.) about the new GvG legendary cards popularity. We can also say that this would be a crafting list priority for those who can't wait to get their hands on the best stuff.
I have to disagree heavily. Vol'jin > Troggzor, Mal'Ganis and Gahz'rilla are nice but don't really se play, Bolvar is underrated on your list, Neputlon is hugely underrated on that list.
In value, Foe Reaper is much higher. Dr Boom deserves a high spot like he does, Mal'Ganis is the last thing you want to see a voidcaller pull out, and I'm including Jaraxxus even if when the voidcaller summoned him an infernal dropped with him and he became a hero too. Mimirons Head is good if you can muster the defense because they will send it to the abyss ASAP if they can, given going as far as to trade horribly expensive minions and wasting them on a 5 mana card, enough to make a Deathwing decoy. Malorne is great for Deathrattle Druid decks, having Baron Rivendare out with Malorne will give you a lot of 9/7s in due time.
Blingtron is ONLY good when your opponent wields something like Gorehowl or Sword of Justice and just so happens to give something awful like Light's Justice as a 2-3 mana worse for enemy whereas you may get something better. Vol'Jin isn't the best, but he is far from the worst, and Troggzor is a pain to face, if your opponent tries to control him with any spells, you get another 4 mana body, just one spell makes him more than worth while. Dr. Boom summons two very desirable minions while sporting a 7/7 body for 7 mana. Even if the boom bots are useless as their deathrattles, it's still 2 1/1 bodies, making Boom 9/9 for 7 unless AOEd.

Blingtron is useful in a lot of situations. The Blingtron+Harrison combo is very strong, and if you are a mage, you can stretch it over two turns by hitting the opponent in the face with a water elemental the turn you summon Blingtron. The weapon can also help you get lethal. Rogues can also combo Blingtron with Sabotage.
These kinds of tactics make it easy for certain decks to mitigate the opponent's random weapon. You can't control what they get, but you can control when they get it.

Doom
Vol'Jin
Troggzor
Sneeds
Neptulon
Bolvar
Trade Prince
Iron Juggernaut
Blinktron
the rest.
i agree with this list, but blingtrong may be above iron juggernaut
We are still too quick to judge. First of all, most people don't have many of the GvG legs yet, so they just play ones that they got. Second, meta is still shifting, some of those legs might see more play later. All I can say for sure is
Cairne summons Baine if killed by minions. Troggzor summons a trogg if polymorphed or hexed.
Both are really tough to play when you're behind on the board, but Cairne is a little easier because he can start trading with minions.
Both are vulnerable to silence, and most effective in control type decks where burning a silence on Cairne or Troggzor leaves opponent vulnerable to other powerful legendaries.

I love my Trogg, even if he doesn't spawn multiple times he strongly affects the opponent's play. May not be the top GvG neutral but has won me quite some games (currently level 13).

Battle doesn't need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don't ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don't ask why I fight.
i got a gold Flame Leviathan and i never plan to use it. im debating whether to dust it since it alone will et me a new legendary or save it until i get a plain. as far as total GvG legendaries im only missing Malorne, Hemet Nesinway, Gazlowe, Grull, and that Thermaplug card... Counting GVG total i need the clockwork giant with those legendaries then id have the entire set. so im not sure if its worth buying packs of GvG since i need so little. then again most would be dust? which would help...

Blingtron is actually not that bad against hunters Eaglehorn Bow, especially when its buffed with charges or if its about to get some with secrets!
Blingtron is useful in a lot of situations. The Blingtron+Harrison combo is very strong, and if you are a mage, you can stretch it over two turns by hitting the opponent in the face with a water elemental the turn you summon Blingtron.

Dr. Boom and Vol'jin are top 5.
Compare to Cairne:
Cairne is 1 mana cheaper. Troggzor has +2/+1.
Cairne summons Baine if killed by minions. Troggzor summons a trogg if polymorphed or hexed.
Both are really tough to play when you're behind on the board, but Cairne is a little easier because he can start trading with minions.
Both are vulnerable to silence, and most effective in control type decks where burning a silence on Cairne or Troggzor leaves opponent vulnerable to other powerful legendaries.
Blingtron 3000 + Harrison Jones = ?
This is statement is false.
The odds of that actually happening is just absurd, as all you may end up with is saving the bling for half the game.

I really love iron jugger i crafted »:]
What you think about him¿ I rank top 3!
Enjoy the show
Can someone justify Trade Prince Gallywix? I got him in a pack but can't see a use for him.
Check here for my new cards!Pokemon HS class!All the Pokemon as HS cards!
I love my Trogg, even if he doesn't spawn multiple times he strongly affects the opponent's play. May not be the top GvG neutral but has won me quite some games (currently level 13).
