I wish they made her too. As well as Tara, Sarita, Rosita, Winter etc. But I do want to see ODB first because we got like 5 Mickie and zero ODB and I like to get a figure of newer women.  But yes Mickie needs one too! I hope Velvet comes with the title she most likely will not.. |

There are others that should get a fig before Hemme, shes an announcer and hasnt done very much besides that, not enough to warrant a figure. Im sure someone will think Dixie or Hebner didnt deserve one either. Dixie, shes in charge so obviously shes gonna approve her own fig, she didnt really deserve one either. Hebner on the other hand, he's a veteran as much as any wrestler from his era. Referees dont get much recognition but who doesnt know who Earl Hebner is?
Mickie certainly needs a figure, she's been kinda stagnant as of late in my opinion but shes already done plenty for TNA.

Because it would involve putting forth some effort on the line, mainly.

Yeah, I'm guessing that they're not scanning anyone else and that they're just winding down the line with repaints of their bestsellers. They might not have plans to carry into next year, but dammit, they're going to juice the Jeff Hardy fans for all they are worth.

Anyone else fine with this besides me? Let the license die, then let someone else have a try at the TNA product. Come on Hasbro or Playmates, heck Jazwares, let's go. I know this won't happen considering that TNA has nothing huge to offer to any toy company, like WWE (sigh); but hey, one can dream that another toy company might one day revive this license and with it, perhaps some interest within the actual retail market... til then... |

That's why I'm not okay with it. I'm totally down for any other company to take a stab at TNA, but I know deep down that there just won't be TNA toys and that's that. And that I'm not okay with. I have a good list of people and attires I'd still love to see. What's the shame here is how TNA misread the signs. They were the ones who decided not to resign ToyBiz because Jakks was becoming available. They said "Hey, Jakks WWE is huge, it must be because Jakks itself is a huge seller" when we have all seen firsthand it was the WWE part that sold those toys not Jakks. Anybody could make WWE and it would sell. Hell, I could put a stick in a box and write WWE on the package and if it was the only thing available it would be a bestseller. Jakks name carried no real weight with wrestling fans outside of WWE. |

They had a Taylor Swift License to make dolls. That license didn't last even a year. Jakks made Real Steel figures that failed big time. Jakks also made those Plug in TV games that I guess you can say sold well for a while but that died off shortly as well. If it wasn't for Jakks to have gotten the WWE line, they wouldn't be around today |

I like those figures, but those brands also carry some weight in my decision to collect them. I almost feel, for instance, that UFC would be better as a McFarlane Sports Pick style line, with photo-realism and individual static sculpts for every fighter. They would probably sell a lot better as the average 'macho' guy who watches MMA would feel more comfortable with statues instead of 'dolls'. |

I only bought one UFC figure in my entire life and that was Kimbo Slice. I was so disappointed with how poorly made the figure was and how it cannot stand up by itself, that I swore I would never buy another UFC figure in my entire life. The UFC line has been a complete failure. Walmart and Target stopped carrying them, Kmart however still sells them. UFC figures ended up in Ollie's Bargain Outlet around Christmas last year. That just goes to show how bad they sell. McFarlane is better off with UFC than Jakks ever was. |

Cause they can't afford it. Just wait for the company to go under and maybe WWE will resign her, then make a new Mattel figure of her. Or just buy the old Mattel one and remember the good old days.

To be fair.. Jakks' TNA line COULD have carried over a lot of momentum from the WWE line.. they just chose not to, and Jakks has made STUPID decisions with the TNA line since day one. The failure is mostly on Jakks, and that's a shame, because Jakks had the power to do something different.
I doubt we'll see anyone outside of repaints.. but if we do, a new Mickie wouldn't be horrible. I would far prefer people who haven't gotten figures yet, though.
