I feel like I have TOO much to look forward to, lmao.
Legends 3: Still want Bulldog, Rock, and Vader
Basic 7: Sheamus, McCool, Tatsu
Elite 7: The Hart Dynasty
Legends 4: Warrior, Demolition, Orndorff
Basic 8 (depending on protos): Maryse, Kofi
Not to even mention 2-Pack Rockers, the Defining Moments HBK and Savage... I absolutely LOVE Mattel. No telling what 2011 will bring to us, but I am ecstatic to find out.

Yeah, I've basically lost all interest except for the Legends line.
However, that's in jeopardy now because of how expensive they are and because they're hard to find in Canada.

I don't even collect the things, yet I'm excited to see what's next for the Legends and Elite lines. Especially the Legends figures.

I'm not losing interest, but I am thankful that most of the current roster has already been made. I'm trying to limit myself to only 1 of each person the best I can. My wallet thanks me for it.

I haven't lost interest.
One thing that bores me though... is when I see protos too early... and I feel like Ive seen the pictures so many times, that Im bored with the figure by the time I own it.

They are pumping out their lines and figures way too fast - slow it down and build anticipation, especially for the newer guys getting figures for the first time.

They were pumping out so many good figures all at once it was getting really hard to collect everybody I wanted, so I appreciate a little break.

it's getting easier to wait. i'm trying not to be too overly psyched about stuff i haven't seen yet, in fact, i kinda downplay it all in my head. I used to get pretty crazy. I still hunt, but i don't go out of my way. I do find myself not getting everything on purpose when i need stuff at the store, so i can maybe go back (to another store) a day or two later - and check their toy dept. haha. but i can totally understand where you're coming from. I said in the beginning i'd keep my collection modest, and i can't believe i have about 30 figs already, that's way more than i thought i'd be getting. I just made a list of all the figs that could be out by the end of the year that i want and it's only like 6 or 7 (mainly because i decided NOT to start collecting Legends - i have spent too much time and money on my Jakks collection and it's just boxed up now).

I'm very excited for the new Mini Figures that will be released in December/January, but I'm tired of the 2543th figure of Cena and Rey in the Basic line. Jakks had a better mix in my opinion, I think it was a little like first they released a Wrestler 3 or 4 month in a row in different styles/outfits, but then gave him a break for 3 to 6 month until the next "wave" of him in new attire/styles was released. I think this happened also to the Top guys like Cena and Rey and after the distance we were more excited to get new Cena/Rey's. Sometimes (ok, that was not SO often) they even had 3 or 4 NEW guys/girls per Set.

I'm interested to see what they'll have to offer at Ringside Fest. It is a little disheartening trying to collect in Canada though. I find myself having to rely on online shops for current items, but I only do that if I really want that specific figure.

Yeah, I'm getting a little bored waiting for all this crap I preordered, and it keeps getting back ordered. I use to go out on all my days off, and hit the walmart next to my work everyday. Now I barely go once a week

I got bored a month or so ago when I realized there were only a few items released to date I haven't seen. As soon as someone on here finds something in stores a week later the toys are all over the pegs here so there is no waiting or wanting. I don't feel the need to buy anything because I feel like if I pass on it I can find it again or wait for another version of that superstar in a later line. I grabbed Knox and Hurricane because they will never get another figure, but its easy to pass on Cena, Batista and Mysterio stuff.

I just hope to god Zack Ryder will be announced at Ringside Fest. Or I will be uber pissed. That's really the only thing I'm waiting for besides finding Elite 4 in stores.

I lost interest really fast. Not knocking them down, they make some very good stuff. A lot of people got turned off from Jakks after Mattel took over, I still love my Jakks figs, and I don't really see the point of re-buying so many characters/wrestlers again. Mattel is very good, but for some reason, I don't get crazy with them, happened to me with MOTU and now WWE. I got most of the first couple of basics and just one Elite (HBK). I feel Jakks is far more playable than Mattel (though Mattel's WWE figs are more playable than their MOTU line).

I think there just releasing things too fast. If they took longer breaks between sets, it would keep people happy, but as it is, they've released most people already, so not many new (current) wrestlers to look forward too. Someone, please, fell free to correct me if I'm wrong, as I've been collecting the line for all of 2 weeks.

Ditto, I only collect Mattel legends and there hasn't been much on that front. Seems like the releases are few and far between.
