I live in the mid-west. I'm not a big supporter of TNA as some of the stuff they do is hit or miss as far as entertainment is concerned. Sometimes downright disturbing.... Haha I know WWE will always claim that fame with Katie Vickers, no matter what. I live 10 minutes away from TRU in my town. Then have 2 TRU an 1 hour away in 2 other cities. My TRU and 1 of the other has gotten a case of DI9, haha with all the Jeff Hardys gone (go figure). My question is, do TNA figures usually shelf warm??

They do in the UK. Every branch of The Entertainer I've been in had a million Angelina Loves and tons of one of the Legends of the Ring figures, I think Raven.

I've never bought a TNA figure unless it came in a lot of figures I bought. There are a few that I would be interested in, but I'd feel like it was be a wasted effort as I don't follow TNA closely and they wouldn't be any trade or resale value if I actually wanted to stop collecting. What I mean is that, I collect Mattel Elites at the moment, and it's easier to trade up for newer figures. IE, I can resale several Elites to save a little on most desirable Elites lol. With TNA figures, I'll prolly have to be very selectively to cut on my own spending. You think they warm shelves because collectors, as a whole, believe some of those guys will go to (or finish up there career) in WWE?

DI8 and DI9 sold quickly at my two closest TRUs. Both stores currently have one Daniels left. Of course they only received two, maybe three cases. Nowhere near the amount of the average WWE series. I really liked the DA figures back in the day and bought most of early DI figures but I haven't had much of a desire to purchase anything from the last few waves (except Miss Tess). Now, I'm too much of a Mattel guy.

They sell out fast around me. Both DI8 and DI9. I've yet to see a single Hardy at retail and the only fig that shelf warms around here is Morgan.

Good move by TRU to bring in the latest waves (DI8 and DI9).  |

One of my Kmarts has about 5 Series 8 Morgan's sitting there, but I've never seen Hulk or Sting there at retail. Same with every set Hardy is in. |

They come 12 to a case but there's only 5 figures per set. DI8 is annoying because they could have heavily packed ANYONE else in the series but Matt Morgan and they would have sold. Jakks had to know that Matt Morgan was the least popular guy in the series but they still packed him more heavily than Hogan, Sting, RVD, and Styles. Same thing with the previous set with Mr. Anderson and Series 9 with Christopher Daniels. Both of those sets should have packed Jeff Hardy the most. One of my Kmarts has only 3 Matt Morgans and a few Series 2 Amazing Reds. And TRU has 4 Christopher Daniels and an Austin Aries. |

I agree completely man… these toy companies baffle me dude, they really do. The idea is to make money, correct? So instead of flooding the few store racks than TNA actually gets with Jeff Hardy, Hulk Hogan, and guys that will actually sell they flood them with Matt Morgan, Anderson, Terry Taylor and Kazarian. Its baffling. |

I live in Central Ohio and on the times I do stop in at TRU, I normally see about a handful each trip.

Yesterday, I picked up DI8 RVD at one of my Kmarts. He was the only figure I never saw at TRU. The case must have just come up in this week. A little late?
