You know if you go to time square TRU youll see what he means though it shouldnt be called wwe section it should be called Mysterio its just his elite figure there thats all youll find mattel should wake up why keep making more of him if he not selling or make one of him out of 3 boxes maybe make him rare or someting

Okay, but I still find it crazy that some people actually want a person to retire from a career that they enjoy just because they are getting fed up with seeing his figures. My opinion of Rey has nothing to do with figures, my hatred for Rey goes well beyond the spectrum of action figures, I hate wrestlers who skate by on appeal alone and never do anything new, Rey has been a face for the last 20 years I think the only time he was briefly a heel was with the Filthy Animals and we are supposed to forget that time ever happened because he was unmasked. If they want me to truly care about Rey Mysterio have him punk out Sin Cara and make him heel for awhile... If not leave the memories alone! |

I definitely dont think its even slightly humane to wish a mans career ends so his fig wont be out as much, but anyway ....
Obviously you'll see a decline. Whenever a wrestler retires the figs get scooped up and Im sure we'd still see flashbacks, etc. but there would be a lot less released. Similar to when HBK retired and all of his modern era figs went through the roof price-wise.

TBH out of all the pegwarmers Rey sells the best. At least in my area.
If anything Cena and Orton are neck and neck. I literally saw 3 E16, 4 E12, 2 E9, and 2 BOPPV Ortons at one Kmart.
At least each Rey is different and will appeal to different people.
Also if he retires it could be well over a year before they start to phase out and that is if he DOESN'T sign a Legends Deal. If Edge signed a Legends Deal I am sure we would still be seeing figures of him.
Beside, I think we still have a good number of attires to get before then. I.e. Batman, 1/2 Rey 1/2 Cara, etc. So I wouldn't mind getting these figure of him.
And for the love of God Mattel, please make a Joker rey while you still can.
Next RSC Exclusive should be a 2pk Batman Rey and Joker Rey.

I want him to retire because I don't want him to spend the rest of his life hobbled or needing a walker or wheelchair. I've lost count of how many knee surgeries this newest one will make.
that said,even if he were to retire TODAY, it would be close to a year,or best case scenario 8 - 9 months before he'd stop being on the pegs considering how far ahead they plan and make the figures.
and i really want 2 FB figures of Rey before all is said and done. his ECW figure that was done before in Elite form,and the purple Phantom look from WCW.

I think Rey should retire b/c he hasn't been healthy for a while and i am sure his family wouldn't mind him being home doing the day to day stuff he prob. doesn't get to do while being on the road not just b/c his figures will stop being made.
To think he won't be able to feed his family is nuts. He has been wrestling for how many years? Granted not all at top pay in WWE but i am sure he made a nice penny in WCW and those sales of all the Rey masks and t shirts didn't hurt him either. He could always do autograph signings,shoot interviews and a host of other things when he does retire.

This topic is getting as bad as the "who are the 4 Elite Flashbacks" threads. It seems like now at least once a week somebody makes a thread proclaiming that if Rey Mysterio retires/dies that the "stores will be saved" from having so many of his action figures.
It's getting very old and I think it's pretty douchey to hope something back happens to the guy just so they'll stop making his figures. It's ridiculous.

Haha, these are my exact thoughts too. On top of being able find Rey in any store, theres always something better to buy. I know Ill eventually get Rey though.

Just to make something clear, I'm not wishing him to retire. I simply brought up the topic if he retired would we see a decline in his figure availability.

Okay, but I still find it crazy that some people actually want a person to retire from a career that they enjoy just because they are getting fed up with seeing his figures. He said he'd be sad if he retired as a fan but happy as a collector. No where did he say he wanted him to retire so he doesn't have to see his figures. Stop trying to instigate fights. |
