Is there any update on the ROH figures or news about them or even rumors about them?

Hasbro are great and Playmates' mold for TJP/Sydistiko would work for pretty much 95% of the ROH roster.

I don't think there will ever be an ROH line of figures.
If you went and asked a casual WWE fan who their favourite ROH star is, they would either say "what's ROH??" or say "I like CM Punk, he came from there."
Unless ROH gets on a network TV station, and starts to have actual PPVs constantly, then they won't be getting action figures. A kid isn't gonna pass up a Roman Reigns wrestling figure at Walmart for the latest Michael Elgin figure.

I could see them being on their website

I could see them being on their website Yes, ROH is on TV in most places. I get it at 9 pm on a Saturday night on syndication, and at 2 am on a Monday morning on syndication. Unless they get a deal like TNA has with Spike TV or WWE has with USA Network, then ROH will not be getting action figure. ECW didn't get action figures until they were on TNN. So I really doubt ROH will ever get wrestling figures.

Except ROH with their sub-national TV have confirmed they're in negotiations with action figure companies so there's a pretty good chance they could have something lined up unless they blow it.

I hadn't heard anything about this, but I am now very interested
Don't expect it to be Hasbro or anyone of that level though. It's going to be a smaller company looking for licenses. This will be a risk, and no large company would take one so big.
I hope we hear more soon.

I keep telling you guys, it's gonna be Jazwares. Granted, they have decent molds for wrestling figures But their quality control sucks. I really can't think of any other company suitable to do this.

I'm pretty sure we're gonna get the first line early in 2015. ROH seems serious about expanding especially since TNA has been going down, the number 2 promotion spot is up for grabs.

So I could have the Shaolin Monks vs. reDRagon. I see no downside. Plus Jazwares would potentially do a 3.75" line of figures which would be rad.

TNA is/was the second biggest wrestling company in America. They latched on to the coat tails of WWE figures with Jakks and they still couldnt sell. There's not a chance that ROH gets any legit, high quality figures made. At best you might get some generic knock off looking figures like the OSFTM ECW Line.

They had like 8 points of articulation. Figures now have anywhere between 20-30 points of articulation. They had silly action features, and generic undersized accessories (with the exception of the two belts). About the only positive thing about them were that OSFTM actually put some detail into their clothes.
