Will they kill the NXT line? Prior to it, they seemed to only have it to appease the people who wanted more NXT stars who were pretty obscure and since NXT was nothing more than an internet show. Now that it's not the case anymore, do you think the NXT line is dead?

NXT line is already dead. Andrade from series 5 is the only figure getting released as a RSC exclusive. Itami was canceled, Roddy is being repainted and inserted into the mainline, and Titus is in limbo.
Network Spotlight is the new series exclusive to Target.

The NXT line is already dead. They've had a significant amount of NXT talent in recent main line waves, so it's not like the brand isn't represented. Any changes probably wouldn't take any place until mid 2020 with how far in advance they plan.

I actually like it better they put them in the main elite line anyway. way more obtainable and overall it usually is a better deco figure. (Dream/Baszler) turned out good.

I think it’s safe to say that Shower Time Rusev will be on the shelf for quite some time so the series will still live on for as long as he’s still warming.

I think we will see more figures from the NXT brand now that they will be on tv and have a larger audience.

Not sure if you’re serious or not but Roderick Strong is more commonly referred to as just “Roddy” than “Rowdy” Roddy Piper. |

I haven’t seen any NXT figures (Rusev included) on the pegs for a few month now.

Haha Bill even said he’s hoping to find a spot for Roddy and Titus (along with the other unreleased figures). I’m fairly certain UE Roddy is just another figure of him. |

To be fair, Ali did compete in NXT at houseshows and was on the network vs Hideo on NXT. |

They'll probably just add more NXT guys in the main line but no one will probably give two hits about them now that Vince is gonna take control and get no one over.

they should really figure something out with how they release the roster.
Because the roster in 2009 when they started making figures is way different than it is now. Back then there was what? 40-50 ppl?
There is like 60 ppl just on the RAW roster alone rn.
40 something on SmackDown.
20-30 on NXT
the roster is about to be 3x the size as it was when Mattel started the license.

I think there will be at least more NXT Basic figures when it hits tv. Being on something other than the network will probably introduce a lot more kids to NXT names.
I’m laughing if NXT gets canceled. It wouldn’t surprise me with all the distribution issues and problems with canceling sets.
On a side note, a friend from Canada said NXT 4 hit his Toys R Us last week. He grabbed the whole set. So heads up for Canadian collectors. Guess y’all are getting the boxes we didn’t here in Ohio and other states. You’re welcome 😂
