I don't think there'll be any quality TNA figures... They made the call to go with Jakks back then, and now they don't have Hogan as a bargaining chip to entice new toy companies. TNA is in bad shape. I can see why them going with Jakks seemed like a good move for both sides, but it didn't turn out well.
No idea who'd get the WWE license. I'd like to see Hasbro get it again if Mattel were out of the running.

Mattel can't be beat. I think anyone who tries to follow them won't fare as well.

I don't wanna even think about Mattel losing the license. They do a fantastic job and I'm not starting over.

Mattel lose the licence and I legit stop collecting. Mattel is unbelievable in everything they do regarding the figures.

I think it'd be cool if Hasbro got the TNA license, but they're a bit too trashy for Hasbro i'd bet, and TNA isn't faring too well as a company so I couldn't really imagine anything outside of Jakks' TNA line. If Mattel and WWE split, I for one would be ****ing ****ed off.

Mattel/WWE are set for quite a long ride I think. If Jakks keeps the TNA license or if some other company gets it, they'd be smart to make their figures on a similar scale to Mattel, compatibility would be a huge factor in increasing sales. I know I'd have bought plenty of TNA figs if they weren't so huge, or could at least be head swaps.

Anyways I too love watching both products but I feel that TNA has the better programming than WWE. Figure wise I would love to see TNA return to Toybiz as they had really good figures and realistically their figures look to be the modern base for the Mattel line in general. In the event that Mattel and WWE part ways I have no idea who would or should step in and take over. |

I would probably not start over simply because of the cost of action figures nowadays. If the lineups were very strong in a new line I would consider but the pricing of any new WWE line would be a big factor in my decision. I am not a fan of the TNA Jakks line but I think the Hogan,Sting and Jeff Hardy figures are pretty good and theres a few others like Scott Steiner, Raven that are well done.
