Like many others, I was super confused, then read the dates. I was so mad when they lost the license. I said I was done. Now, I have 100+ Mattels and cant sell off my Jakks for anything! They are about to go for 2$ a pop at my yard sale lol

They are about to go for 2$ a pop at my yard sale lol There's a yard sale I need to get to! Yeah I still buy Jakks and I'm an avid Mattel collector. Mattel had an edge over Jakks, which they still do, when it comes to scale. However recently I can't say that they do over quality......at least in my experiences as of late. They even out with me on everything else though. Mattel has better scale and Jakks still have more detailed headsculpts IMO. So I don't really prefer one over the other. Same with rosters. Jakks is vastly deeper, but no Savage,Steamboat,Von Erich makes for some serious gaps. Conversley Mattel gave us all 3 of those but the chances of getting several of the names Jakks did in the CS line will probably never get done. So its 50/50 for me.

Long time ago I worked in a store that sold the CS line & always thought they where cool but I didn't collect at the time & was just starting to watch wrestling again. I got the want to collect just as the Mattel line was about to come out. I picked myself up a MITB elite scale ring at retail along with 6 RA styled figures of Jakks. I also planned to buy the Jakks TNA line. When I saw the quality between the 2 lines I knew it was Mattel all the way. Definitely feel for the guys that had a huge Jakks collection to be told everything is changing. I was afraid that the figs was be a different size. Luckily for me I think Jakks and Mattel figs are generally passable in the same world. I even started a letter campaign asking Mattel to keep the new line in scale with jakks and mailed the letters to them. They responded too. Ha Hind sight.

im pretty much done with WWE figures after jakks ends their production i highly doubt mattel is going to produce such quantity & quality that jakks has for the last 15 years if jakks keeps the same "Style" for TNA figures ill probably pick up a few here and there of the guys i like in TNA like daniels, styles & lethal but after jakks is done with WWE im going to spend the rest of my time "catching up" and getting figures i want that i missed HA HA HA Oh how opinions change.
