Something that just came up to my mind. Deluxe style of figures by Jakks is probably the style of figures that most lasted on the market.
So Ruthless appeared in 2003 and ended in 2010 right after RI was launched. Making it a 7 year long line. So i may be wrong but DA appeared in 2005. With DI12 being announced in 2014, the deluxe style of figures have now been around for 9 years.
Pretty cool if you think that the style has given you guys from Pipper all the way to Austin Aries for example.

I think it was early 2006 for DA in the UK, but yeah that is a long time for a line to go. However I do think the TNA line will end next year when the license ends between TNA and Jakks.

They made BCA styled figures toward the end of Jakks WWE contract

Still, kudos to the OP for the observation.

I don't know, the Ttl figures weren't consistently coming out that whole time (or were they, maybe I'm wrong?), so I wouldn't necessarily count them. Deluxe molds have been around for a good while, even ignoring the year hiatus they took between DA and DI.
Personally, while I collect and have nice nostalgic feelings for them, they are outdated now.

I also thought that's what the TNA genesis body molds were, too. I think those WWE ones were called Havoc Unleashed or something similar.

Worst style of action figures in history
Longest lasting style of figures.
What is wrong here?
