It won't mean anything to the WWE line, and all Mattel makes anymore are horwheels/Matchbox cars, Barbie Dolls and DC toys.

Maybe they should get JLU and DC figs and Cars into stores with better case packs and distribution so we can actually BUY THINGS WE WANT! Management-wise, Mattel seems to be severly mentally challenged. And I have a feeling the wrong people got fired in this case.

I heard they are planning a merger similar to waht toy biz and marvel did. I beleive Hasbro was the partner. Just a rumor but if it happens, the mattel line could suffer thesame fate as toy biz. Wonder if WWE is rethinking this move?

Wonder if WWE is rethinking this move? Should have stayed with Jakks. Now we'll get stuck with McFarlane's |

Management-wise, Mattel seems to be severly mentally challenged. And I have a feeling the wrong people got fired in this case. Great points. Mattel is HORRIBLE at case ratios. It seems the stores are always flooded with the same figures and people just can't find what they want, so they don't buy anything. I'm sure several people remember the fiasco that was the Masters Of The Universe re-launch several years ago: all anyone could find was He-Man and Skeletor and the line suffered and withered away because of it! ALSO, IF Mattel planned to merge with Kenner/Hasbro, the FTC would certainly have to look very closely at the potential monopoly situation that could spring from that. They would end up dominating an amazing percentage of the US toy market and it would end up making it next to impossible for any other company to compete. |

their are companys that i think would do well with WWE Figures such as Hasbro as long as they make the WWE Lines as important as their Other Major lines like Starwars , GI Joe , Marvel Legends if Hasbro were to make WWE Figures in Marvel Legends Style i would buy every set just like i did with TNA
