Mattel, I have a great suggestion. Put more Diva figures in cases instead of your more common male wrestlers such as CM Punk, John Cena and Big show figures because us collectors have a hard time finding Divas

The reason for less Diva figures, I believe, is because they cost more to produce than a normal male figure. They're Elite styled, require different sized molds for each figure, and the last time they major-packed a Diva was when Beth was thrown into the Royal Rumble PPV set, and she's STILL clogging shelves. I saw, literally, 30 of her in one place about 3 months after the Royal Rumble set hit.

To be fair the rumble set as a whole was clogging shelves(Rhodes still does to this day in my area) Also beth was 1 per case, i think the only none 1 per case diva they did was Mickie James, which i would blame her poor selling on her release about a month or 2 before the figure hit stores. IMO the diva figures sell just as well as jobber figures(Chavo, Santino, Yoshi and so on) and those people get 2 per case so why not the divas? it kind of comes off as a middle finger to people who do buy the divas. Also just to state it, the onlt diva figures i've seen more then once are mickie, beth & melina all others i've only seen once(Have yet to see WMH melina & nattie)

I agree with you 100% that it is a middle finger to the diva buyers.

It would be easier if they did include more divas in each case. I haven't found Maryse yet and now I'm trying to get Natalya too..

I found Maryse twice back in January at Kmart and I bought the both of them one singly and the other when they the buy 2 get one sale. I gave the other one to my friend.
