There are around 5 Jakks WWE figures that are scheduled for release, that we've already seen protos for, that I'm actually excited about. That excitement, however, is completely muted by the fact that Jakks will purposefully remove all or most of the detail on every one of them. Add that to the endless hordes of Jakks' damn re-re-re-releases and I'm done. I have been a fan & longtime collector of Jakks' WWF/WWE merchandise, but after seeing how unprofessionally they've acted in losing the WWE license, I'll never buy their product again after 2010. Thanks for making an EXTREMELY loyal 13-year customer feel completely alienated!

I am ver y happy that we are still getting figs thye may all be repaints but hell it is more than Toybiz is doing with the TNA figures which is nothing. So to JAKKS keep pumping out the line-ups hell doi all repaints for all I care I am just happy to keep collecting what they throw my way.

Toybiz quit with TNA because they pretty much went bankrupt from what I know

Theres a certain way to go about thing, i understand the business perspective, but its quite obvious customer satisfaction is not highly regarded by jakks even though it is detrimental to a business. They are complete fools and doing barely anyone any favours.

I actually fully expected Jakks to what they're doing, except for the CS line. I thought with the original line-up, they are taking an extra step for collectors. However this was not the case. I knew the RA and AD lines would just be re-releases or repaints of the popular guys.

Jakks is evidently just winding down and going through the motions for the rest of the year. Its clear that they're trying to empty their inventories by coming out with endless re-releases and repaints. They stopped including painted belts with CSDA a long time ago, they re-released CS figs in 2-packs, took off new names in future CS series and inserted figures which we already have multiple figures of, etc. I'm disappointed because they could have gone another route to end the WWE line in a better way but I understand that its a business decision on their part.

The CS 28 news is enough to ruin their rating in my eyes. Their lack of new figures while not surprising is still not good for me.
It WOULD have been great if they tried to fill out the roster the best they could with the limited amount of time they had to develop the figures, but I figured they would go the easy and cheap route and re-release past figures and of course the Cenas, Reys, and HHHs.
Did I mention the abortion that is CS 28 ruined their rating for me?
