They wont follow it, cept to put Jakks on clearance. Its not like they are just going to throw out the inventory.

The stores that are pulling these altogether are not just throwing them out; they return them to Jakks, and Jakks has to deal with them. Like a couple of people have said, these will wind up at places like Big Lots and Ross. Stores like the local TRU here, which still has a ton of unsold Jakks stuff, will just be putting them on clearance. (They need to do it pronto, I really can't believe how much Jakks stuff was still there after Christmas.)
All Target has left here is a bunch of the 3 3/4" figures, and a lonely Joey Styles, all on the clearance aisle. I'm thinking about buying Styles and swapping the head onto a smaller suit body I have in my fodder box, since it's so cheap.

Wait until Mattel puts out their first Drew McIntyre...or how about a nice Paul Burchill? Anyone that thinks Mattel WWE figures are just going to fly off the shelves without stopping is nothing but a fool. On the topic, I would expect TRUs to just leave all the Jakks the way it is. It still doesn't answer my big question if TRU will be getting the last 3 Jakks series. Targets & Walmarts are already re-set which didn't surprise me because they hardly ever had a good Jakks selection, and don't have a good Mattel selection. Every Target I've been to has had only the Wrestlemania set, the Elites & Rings. Every Wal-Mart has had Elite & Flex-Force

Go in any Mattel threads that people are reading, and spew your nonsense. Jakks figures were terrible. Jakks is DONE. GET OVER IT!

GET OVER IT! contrary to what you do? go into all the Mattel threads and talk about how bad Jakks was, while stating that anyone with an opinion outside your own is "moronic" or "makes no sense" and Jakks isn't done...where are you, kid? Jakks is still making the UFC line, still making the TNA line & introducing the "NWA Legends" line that I, like plenty of other people, am very excited about

I finally bought my first batch of WWE Mattel figures today and the TRU where I got them actually had tons more Jakks stuff than Mattel. They had the Jakks belts, Classic Superstar series, Delux Classic Superstar series, multiple 2-packs, tons of Micro Agression and some random ECW and PPV carded figures. All in all I'd say about 8 feet was dedicated to Jakks and maybe 2 feet dedicated to Mattel, but Mattel had an end cap with their WWE stuff on it so I guess all was fair.
I'm sure Jakks stuff will be disappearing soon though, it will probably be heavily discounted over the next month or so....

My TRU and KMart still have a lot of Jakks and full retail price. A lot of the stuff at my TRU I know won't sell at retail price but who knows.
