It's really getting sad guys. Really. I used to like the Jakks board. I go on both Mattel and Jakks boards, all I see on Mattel boards are 'New pick-up' threads and discussions about upcoming products and what not. Yet I come on this board, and though there are some threads like those, there are many ripping on Mattel and people who like Mattel. I like Mattel. I like Jakks. I think Mattel has given us a better product than Jakks, for what reasons? Detail and scale. I just don't get why people can't just say, 'Okay, well, I like Jakks better' or 'Okay, I like Mattel better' and then follow it up with 'here's why...' But, no, "Mattel is for MARKS" is a much better and much more mature argument. Couldn't agree more.

attention all.... THEY ARE ING TOYS!! Thank you and idk why mattel fans need to WHINE AND WHINE AND WHINE AND WHINE about Jakks figures. I have no problem with certain things from mattel......it's the mattel FANS that piss me off! all they do is compare,compare, compare! Here you go: Just to let you know, comparing and contrasting is usually the way to figure out which is better of two things... Basically what you're saying is you don't like when Mattel is compared to Jakks because it makes Jakks look bad. I'll reiterate the fact that I do like Jakks, and I love my Jakks collection, but there is no denying that Mattel is much more realistic than Jakks. If you don't want realistic figures(some people don't, I mean, look at the Flem 'Ems and stuff, nothing wrong with that as they are toys), then you probably like Jakks better, which is also fine. But, don't call Mattel figures anorexics when they are much more anatomically correct than anything else out there.

The jakks board reminds me of a ghetto that used to be a really nice part of town. I'm glad I can leave, and go to the nice suburb that is the Mattel board.

But, don't call Mattel figures anorexics when they are much more anatomically correct than anything else out there. by the ones compared, Ill give DiBiase to mattel, they both failed at Bourne, you picked a terrible Jakks scan for HBK so we'll call it a draw, I dont mind the Jakks Kane scan but people have always wanted a straightfaced one so we'll give it a draw. Bourne they both completely missed on and Ortons Jakks scan was good for its time frame (it was over used by the end of the line). So of the ones you listed only DiBiase did Mattel really dominate at. Punks were both off too. Mattel HHH, Cena, Matt Hardy all have cartoonish scans. What people are to immature to realize is that NEITHER line is perfect and both have flaws and inaccuracies. You'll never get a mark for either company though to admit that. and again people need to realize you're grown men/ young men arguing about TOYS......Seriously Grow the up

Both companies do have flaws, Mattel has some headscans that need work, Triple H needs a different body IMO, Hardy needs a scan without a ponytail too, I think. And, I chose the HBK because it has the same hair style as the Mattel one. And, what I was trying to point out is that Mattel's figures do not look anorexic, rather, they look like the bodies of the actual people. See Dibiase: His torso almost looks like a scan of the real thing, and his face is pretty damn close. See Bourne: proportioned arms, boots, and a different torso than Cena, still ripped, but not nearly as large. See Kane: A six pack, but much more gut like, not the same torso as Triple H.. See HBK: The torso is basically a perfect match, and he doesn't have HUGE arms. Nice headscan, bad hair. See Orton: His thighs could be bulkier, but his height/torso/arms are PERFECT representations of the real man. Punk: The man is in good shape, but doesn't have a whole lot of definition, the whole body on Mattel's figure is just a much more realistic approach.

Basically, your saying if you like Mattel, you can't like Jakks. And, if you know/like TNA or Nigel McGuinness, you can't be a mark? You are full of logic my friend. Just to let you know, anybody who knows Desmond Wolfe and has access to Google, can find out who Nigel McGuinness is. And, yes your right, WWE is a bunch of circus freaks. So is TNA, you know why? Pro wrestling began at carnivals and circuses. Betcha a mark doesn't know that Bassically, you're really starting to sound like a troll and just trying to stir the pot. People can like both Jakks and Mattel, as well as both WWE and TNA, sorry if you don't understand that.

Just figured out what makes up a good wrestler? So, now you think everybody in WWE doesn't know how to wrestle just because they have a handful of characters(Santino, Khali, Hornswoggle) just there for entertainment purposes? Because of that you're going to use offensive language such as the term 'homosexual,' against The Miz. You know there are probably gay members here that don't appreciate that. Being an ally to the LBGT community, I certainly don't appreciate it either. It's pretty easy to see your lack of an argument when you have to result to that kind of language to back-up/create your point...
