As of 10 minutes ago Mickie James and Shelton Benjamin were both released from World Wrestling Entertainment along with KT Lea , Slam Master J, Funaki, and Jimmy Wang Yang.
Will this effect your search now that theyre gone or will you still want to own them? Im pretty mad I spent 21.39 on them tbh.

Being mad because you bought 2 excellent figures doesnt make sense....i actually think that them being released would make people want them more as it is highly doubtful they will be made again unless they resign with the wwe.

Haha, kinda pwned me theyre KK. Bascially I have a WWE fed, [where i make storylines that entertain me more than WWE does here in '10.] And I only collect the people on contract. [Other than Dreamer cause I saw his retirement at IZOD ROW 6]. So it bummed me where as I could've saved the cash to buy Ziggler Regal and such. Cash is tight now.
You are correct though, they ARE great figures which bums me even more, and I'm anti-TNA so the thought of using people such as Benji who will end up with Haas over there in 90 days makes me nausous.

Yea I just read the news. I wouldn't stop looking for them if you're a fan of them. I personally am a big fan of both and have 1/1000 versions of both their figures as well as a loose normal Mickie. I was going to wait for the WM 26 Shelton but it looks like it may no be made after all. The news of their releases have upset me to say the least....LOL
EDIT: The thought of Benjamin and Haas in TNA kind of sickens me also as I'm pretty sure they'll get pushed initially then TNA will sign another former WWE wrestler and then they'll be lost in the shuffle.

WoW that news got me by surprise, especialy Mickie and Shelton's release.
I already bought Mickie and Shelt figs a few days ago, and I must say I do not regret it. They are really great looking figs.

I did want them and still do. I found Shelton and hope maybe Mickie will be easier to find now.

I was actually jotting down some ideas for a Mattel fed last night and had Shelton set to be Intercontinental Champion, and I had some feuds set up for him vs. Miz, Christian, etc. Haha. But yeah I have no regrets buying a regular Shelton and 1 of 1,000 Mickie. They're both cool figures. I'll still use my Shelton figure as there are a lot of possibilites for him in a fig fed.

Wow I thought you were joking so I rushed over to the WWE site to see the news. I already have both so I'm not searching anyways. I am kind of upset we won't ever get Katie Lea and Jimmy Wang Yang figures though. It's really a shame they let go of Mickie & Shelton but I'm sure they will both end up in TNA. At least we got one figure of each of them before this happend.

So glad I got a wang yang deluxe figure  . I wouldve liked to own a benjamin but I chose kofi over him. I love to see benjamin in the ring but I wouldn't of had anything for him, And if someone jobs down in wwe, they job down in my fed too...Unless they're new then I use just them for like 4 days XD Good luck in TNA black and gold  Good luck in your music career mickie. |

I'm alright with the fact that I already bought the Mickie James. I haven't opened it yet, so I'm good with just displaying it MOC. I may dot he same for Shelton.

funny thing is that i ordered a Mickie off Ebay a couple hours before the news broke. i don't regret it at all. I never really wanted a Shelton in Mattel form, but oddly, him getting fired will inspire me to snatch him up for cheap if i find a good deal (now that i know the B3 will likely be his only Mattel likeness) -- but i'm in no rush on that.

Mickie James is still probably the rarest along with Khali out of Series 3 so I dont regret the purchase.
