Are people gonna complain that their offerings are gone in 30 seconds, or are people gonna complain there isn't enough demand for them?

Or maybe don’t make a figure that is highly in demand that people been asking 3 years for a f’n Walmart exclusive instead of a full mass retail item. Then make a figure that’s not a high demand figure a pegwarming mass retail item. If they made that Archer, Rose or Supreme Baker figures 1/5000 or 1/3000s exclusives respectively they probably would have sold out because the diehard completists would have still purchased them. |

If they made that Archer, Rose or Supreme Baker figures 1/5000 or 1/3000s exclusives respectively they probably would have sold out because the diehard completists would have still purchased them. There was a ton of middle ground that they never touched. They didn't need to have one woman per wave and they didn't need to be packed at 1/case. I don't think slapping the chase sticker on them and paywalling them like they did with The Bunny was the answer either. They went out of the gate hot with a product that WAS hot, but had little depth. Once you got past series 2, the name value fell off a cliff. Archer, Nyla, SCU, etc just didn't have enough draw to sell figures at a national scale, and still don't. AEW has built some home grown stars. But a lot of the early choices (Scorpio, Private Party) of who to build really fell flat. Unfortunately the toy line is so far behind right now that I have no clue how to get things aligned. |

If Archer, Rose and Supreme Baker were exclusives and not mass retail figures the line would be in much better shape. But as mass retail releases every Target I hit has some combination of multiple of those three figures. Then they f’d up by mass releasing the street clothes Hangman at the same time as the Walmart exclusive sure the shirt was slightly different and the one had the belt, but honestly they canceled out each other sales because if you found the one you didn’t need the other. And it’s the same at Walmart I see some combination or Archer, Rose and both Hangman figures. Although the Walmart Hangman is almost always missing the title. But if those there figures weren’t mass released to every store that carries AEW figures the line would be doing much better than it is now. Because with those figure rotting the pegs the stores aren’t getting shipped new product once they sell out of the product they got for the reset Tho was the Mount Kisco NY Target yesterday and all my Targets are like that in some form.  |

My local Walmarts never carry them. They are never on the planograms I have to drive an hour north or down into NJ to find Walmart stores with either line on their planograms. |

Nothing I've seen that I'm interested in but I'll definitely be a curious spectator to see how badly this all gets botched.

Do we NEED a vault? With Mattel I get it...the line has been going for 15 years.
Jazwares has been making figures for...four? I'd rather see Jazwares focus on the current lines they have. Improve the headscans, focus on quality control. Stop inventing MORE series. Jeremy has always been bold and inventive and that drives his success but we genuinely need quality over quantity, not another series.
With a figure line less than five years old, let's focus on going forward. Get your current series of figures out to consumers. Increase your quality.
