The first 4 series of the basic line is 24 different wrestlers so I will wait to complain about repaints. The legends line is coming just nothing official yet.

Geez! Sheamus just become champion. Give it a damn moment. Jakks wasnt cranking out new stars like that. It was usually about 3-4 months. If by March or April, there are no Sheamus protos...then I could see reason for complaint.
The 3000 Rey Mysterios.....it was a given. You knew that was gonna happen. Silly for you to believe Mattel.

I see everyone has their worries well lets compile them: 1. No championship belts. I have a feeling all the focus is going on the figures and not accessories. I don't want to have to buy a crappy flex force figure for $14.99 when all I want are the weapons that come with it! 2. The PG syndrome. I don't want to see 3,0000 John Cenas!!!! Or Reys!!!! They said they weren't going to do it in a interview but yeah they totally are! 3. No classic Super stars! I wouldn't mind them rereleasing a handful of people like Ultimate Warrior or Rob Van Dam in mattel format. Screw entrance greats give me my classic super stars. 4. Long wait for new talent. We need a Sheamus now!!! He is the champion and the face of the company. I felt that Jakks was pretty good at getting us new talent. 5. No real scale ring! I just bought a new real scale ring because I think Mattel wants to focus more on kids then collectors. That's about it for me I want to hear all of yours! Lets make mattel sweat a little. Ok, seriously? Let's breathe and step back for a moment. It has been 22 days since the launch of Mattel. 22. And, we have a substantial amount of figures out already. Now, let me rebut your statements... 1. They said Championship belts would be out soon and to keep an eye out for them. Jakks did not release any belts until a while into there deal. And, they didn't come with single figures for a LONG time. They were only released in box sets. 2. Did anybody think we would see no repaints? Really? Cena, Rey, DX all sell incredibly well. We make up about 1% of the buyers out there, they need to make money, if they gave us a lineup of Noble, Knox, Haas, Helms, Goldust, and Jillian, sure we'd get a lot of new characters, but they would sit on the shelves until 2015. We'll get the figures we want sooner than later. And, why is this the PG SYNDROME. Look at the '90s and how many Austins were released... It has nothing to do with PG, it is simply because they are the most popular wrestlers. 3. They said we're going to get a classic Stars line soon, and they said they'll incorporate some classics into the Basics and Heritage lines. Give it time. 2011 rolls around and we haven't seen anything, then you can complain. 4. Long wait?? Really? I'm sure we'll see a Sheamus by the summer. I agree, I want one as bad as anybody. You have to remember, the lineups we have seen have not been confirmed, for all we know, we'll see one in Basic 4... 5. There was never a real scale ring for figures until just a few years ago. The ones we have are fine, and I'm sure they're planning on giving us one. On a sidenote, here's something I LIKE about Mattel, they came on here and gave us the info they could. They didn't come out here and say "Savage, Steamboat, Owen and Sting will all be released in out Classic line!" or anything crazy like Jeremy used to say and not deliver. They gave us SOME information that will likely all happen. Whereas, Jakks gave us TONS of great info that never ended up happening. |

Really? It's been three weeks, you know everyone complaining, I hope you realize no one is forcing you to buy these... I do wish we had some belts, but I bet at toy fair we see belts and a ring Wow... talk about missing the point. I love the figures I bought! I just see them making a lot mistakes Jakks did thats it. Sure the line has been out for 3 weeks but we have seen what's coming out for a few months.....whatever |
