I know I won't believe it for certain until I see it, but hearing the news that RI will continue makes me happy. But this is Jakks, so I am going to doubt it until there's pics.
But the TNA line is going to be pretty bare at least to start. No belts, no shirts, no accessories. But overall, a nice interview.

Video 1 thoughts: The lineup including Suicide, Steiner, etc when by the time these figures come out, is lame. Continuing to release the 6 sided ring and 6 sides of steel is lame, the Hulkamania ring is not "cool" as Tim Ash says, but rather, lame. My favorite quote so far "Yeah, the detail on Joe is great, we got his umm... tattoo... and umm... his tights" Lame. The fact that Legends will be RI is interesting, but I have been burned by Jakks in the past, I will wait until I see them in stores.

Good to hear. Time to fill some holes. That's what she said. I'm very interested to see the next few series line-ups for the LOTR |

You know what I don't understand?  WHY is there soooo much mystery around Wrestling figures?? What the hell does it matter if Jakks will announce when they are making TNA belts for figures? Things that seem so simple are so mysterious. They are the only company who can make TNA figures...how would "secret info" affect them in any way? I don't buy the whole "you can expect to see it" stuff...they obviously know they are going to make the belts. How could they not? It's just an example because there are other things as well... I just don't get why everything has to be so mysterious Why can't they just say for sure they're going to make Tenay or Hebner...what's the point of a "surprise"? |

I know what you mean. I'm also getting a bit ticked off by all the people complaining. First people complain about there being no RA sculpts anywhere to be seen. Soon after (meaning Toyfair 2010) we get confirmation there will be RA sculpts in its own series AND in the Legends Of The Ring series and yet people STILL complain when they've got what they want! It's been confirmed, what more do you ask for?! |

You want them too be like Jeremy and say stuff and then it gets changed and you think he's lieing? If he was gonna lie don't you think he'd lie saying they are near signing macho man and owen? |

Video 2 thoughts: Forget the micro figures, worry more about getting the rest of the lines in stores and wasting your money on Micros. Chase figures are cool. How come none of the 'cool' stuff is going to happen at the beginning of the line? Every answer is, well maybe later on in the line. If nobody likes the stuff you come out with off the bat, whats to say there even will be a later on?

Video 3 thoughts: Who besides Dixie wants to see a figure of her? No Anderson, Pope, etc until 2011? Lame. Will we see different scale guys for TNA? "I wish Peter were here" aka "to tell you NO". Will their bio be on the back? More importantly, if it is, will it be correct? Another lame interview by Tim Ash Kisser with a bunch of repeat questions with empty answers. Like I said before, I will wait until I see it in stores before I believe it

Good news about the RI style classics continuing. I appreciate that on so many levels.
This new guy seemed a little nervous but genuinely interested in wrestling and, hopefully, the product in general.

Hmmm, i dont see much change in the views of jakks/mattel then there was before.. A majority wanted RI figures, so its to be expected to see big collectors happy here but besides that still dont see many people suddenly jumping back from mattel to loving out of scale DI figs, unless i missed some pages from this thread. |

By the way...Did Andrew Kovall replaced Jeremy?
Cause this guy is 1000 times better than Jeremy...Better speech, sounds like an actual wrestling fan, and does sound to come around often...

I guess no MCMG in RA/RI then? I guess it's time to make a trip to Mr. Kovall's house.

What an EXCELLENT interview. Tim did a great job and as did the other guy.
Some great news from this interview. Just to know that my collecting days are not over yet makes me happy.
Long live the NWA Classic line.........Thanks JAKKS!
