What a intellectually- disabled remark. Mattel is not impressive enough for me to want to spend so much on their stuff.

Not ieven close. When Jakks lost their WWE license, they lost the CS line, which IMO is the greatest figure assortment to date. I wish Jakks had had one more year to really finish the CS line off with many new faces and re-paints in grand fashion, which is how the CS so rightfully derserved.

As a bigger Mattel fan then a Jakks fan, I'd honestly have to agree. Not only is it nice to be able to pick up some figures from Jakks I either missed or couldn't find, but I also don' t have to pay full price from them.
And on the other side of the coin, the price of a Mattel figure is just in my mind, so I can enjoy their product as well.

it matters about companies for me, example: if ROH made figures and they looked worse than mattel WWE or Jakks TNA, i'd still buy them. As much as I don't like WWE now in days, WWE jakks were AMAZING due to the classics series! Now the only positive is NWA figures and TNA figures. It sucks that I wont be getting a Sheamus or a Drew McIntyre (guys I actually like and no I am not buying the mattel ones because I have a fig fed and it looks dumb to mix jakks with mattels)

The last few CS lines sucked but at least we got Steve Blackman and that heel referee guy before it ended! Kona Crush too. |

Yes I admit, jakks were idiots for the new faces that were cut (Mulligan, Sandman, Lita, Linda, Cena, Christian, Patterson, Headbangers, etc) and the lack of accessories. But most if not all figures were very good until CS 28. |

Not for me. I've bought 4 Mattel figures so far. I've bought at least 25 Jakks figures since January...... I wish they were still making WWE figures, but bring on the TNA.

I really think Jakks hit the end of the road with the WWE. Sure we could have gotten some silly gimmicks like Skinner and Red Rooster to fill spots on our shelves but we still have chances to get guys like Steve Keirn and Terry Taylor and with a lil custom help we can make those cheesy wwe gimmicks as well. I just think getting out from under the WWE stranglehold, it allowed them to open up their selections more if they choose to do so. |

looks dumb to mix jakks with mattels) How does it look dumb to mix Jakks with Mattels? Some Jakks fit together with Mattel perfectly. example, say when TNAs figures come out and we get DA Amazing Red and the machine guns.....it wont look right to have them next to a mattel cena or mattel Rey cuz theyll be GIANT! thats the one reason i can't buy mattel. |
