I just don't wanna invest in Jakks figures anymore. By that I mean, I just really don't wanna spend too much on their figures seeing as Mattel's stuff is downright amazing, ya know? I'll buy a few select Jakks figures until the end of this year, but only figures I really want and that's about it. It's just like... yeah, I'll get a few figures to end my Jakks collection with, but I'm not gonna go crazy and buy a lot of stuff.

Nope, I like Jakks figures, surely there have been a few stuff ups here and there but I don't really mind that much. I'll still get whatever figures (deluxe anyways) that I can, WWE and TNA. Some of the hate for Jakks is really exaggerated on here, they're still putting out great figs but its like some people are expecting like Hot Toys quality or similar. I'll get a couple of Mattel figures but thats about it, I didn't really like them.

Thats exactly how ive been doing things for most of this year. I dont really feel 'obligated' to collecting jakks and so forth, i strictly get only what i like and is worthy of my money.

I'm hunting for things Mattel will most likely not make, such as Attitude Era and Classics that aren't HBK, Austin, and Warrior and such. I'm still wanting the new Khali and some others of current though.

Seeing as how I have almost everyone they've made.. I'd be foolish to pass on Steve Blackman and the AD Stephanie McMahon.. they're going to be two of only like ten RA styled figures I'll need to have every character they've released. I'm probably also gonna hit up that Tyson Kidd/Natalya 2 pack if it remains true to the protos, as both those figures are awesome.

I don't know about you. But Jakks is actually on my good side because of ECW5 and the amazing UFC set we got.

I'm just buying a few here and there such as the upcoming CS Bam Bam Bigalow and ECW5 Christian, Tyson Kid.
Not spending too much. I'll wait for Mattel's Elite line.

My last Jakks dollars is being spent via a free $50 Gift Code thanks to RC. As much as Jakks has screwed us, the Heaven and Hell 2 pack is a must get for me.

im disappointed in the serious lack of effort on Jakks' part with the last few sets. but its not going to stop me from buying the ones i want. i'm finishing out my Jakks WWE collection and will move on with them to better things (being TNA & UFC) in some capacity

tell truth i have cut back alot on figs that i dont need. like the old me will buy all the new ortons with long sleeves of tats, just cause it came with different trunks attire anyway ya i'm like Warheart buy paint to do fix-up that jakks forgot to paint and such. And for Mattel, i really dont see myself buying their figs! well maybe just for the heads to update my jakks figs (what a waste of money )
