I'd be interested in a Willow RSC Exclusive. (Did they make a Hardy exclusive last year?)

Oh you Jakkass, looks like you got me. Well the guy who quoted you said 'Why? You are on a wrestling figure board, and you are against wrestling figures being made?
' But Jakks bring out 1 Set every 4 Months... Releasing 1 set every 4-6 months feels like a year to me... just my opinion, you don't have to like it. I've got nothing against wrestling figures being made, dude, so long as they are made right, by the right company. Time and time again, Jakks Pacific has proven, to me ,that they are not to be counted on when it comes to making great wrestling figures. I've had my share of Jakks TNA figures; but every time I looked at them, I would begin contemplating when should I list them on my ebay page? At this moment, the only wrestling figures of TNA that remains with me, are a few of the TNA Impact figures made by Toybiz/Marvel Toys. |

Why are you offended? I think you misread me somewhere along the line. I think Jakks can do it. I think if people actually bought TNA figures, they'd be more. But it's pretty obvious people didn't. I've seen the Shelfs go from 3-4 Shelfs STACKED with every TNA figure in Deluxe Series 1-4. To... Nothing. Not a single jakks figure. |

I had hopes for this line at first; but seeing that no one gave a crapabout the organization, including Jakks that use to push out more WWE figures within a months worth than Mattel, is a freak'n insult to me. Retail saw no results, gave 'em the boot, and Jakks gave up too easily after 3 waves. Instead of going back and trying something else that could regain retail interest in the TNA brand, Jakks continues to use old molds and releases their figures to online sites as a last alternative for double of what they'd cost at retail. You don't just quit at first strike, you pick up that bat and you swing for that baseball again and again. If I was running Jakks, which I'm not, I'd try to beg for one more opportunity at retail with a different source of material, not the same old rehashed crap they've been using for years. Like I said before, they've got an advantage, use it. Use that Real Scan Technology to it's fullest like you did once with that short lived R3 tech line, stop being lazy over there, Jakks. You wanna know why your TNA figures didn't sell, Jakks? You don't change with the times, it's not TNA's (by name) fault, it's yours. And this is my complicated reason on why I hate Jakks Pacific and pretty much their TNA toys. |

Well if this is the case, I hope they get out the following...
Davey Richards & Eddie Edwards
ODB
Taryn Tarrell
Robbie E & Jessie
Zema Ion
I really wanted a Tara but hey we have enough of her from her WWE run. I honestly am fine with one of each person on roster. We don't need multiples of each just because they change their look. I just want some of the new faces before Jakks does drop TNA. It surprises me they haven't yet.

' But Jakks bring out 1 Set every 4 Months... Every four months? That's being generous. They've released 3 sets in the past 2 years. |

And this is my complicated reason on why I hate Jakks Pacific and pretty much their TNA toys. Of course Jakks figures look dated! The molds are 10 years old (When DA was first released!). Why would Jakks bother to produce new molds for a wrestling company? A product that barely draws these days. Even Mattel doesnt put much effort on WWE line. By October TNA can be out of Spike TV. Why would they put money on tv show that risks becoming a webshow? |

I was actually pretty happy with the most recent DI set.
I'd been wanting an updated Hernandez, Sabin was decent, Magnus appropriate, and Bully Ray was well overdue. And no Jeff Hardy.
I suppose the future is cloudy for TNA as a whole, but I have enjoyed collecting their Jakks figures, and look forward to more.

Jakks pacific. Sad to see how my one time favorite company has almost hit rock bottom How is Jakks almost hitting rockbottom? Their UFC line is outselling Mattel WWE. In what universe? I don't even know what Jakks is doing anymore. THey dropped UFC and are focused on what now? 50 inch toys that 1 or 2 people want? Then they barely have time to make a tna figure that, even though they use the same parts over and over and over again, takes them nearly half a year to get a new set out. Where exactly is there focus anymore. I like the TNA jakks figures but man they've been embarassing since losing WWE. |

You would think after all these years they would make new parts for these figures but instead they continue to use old parts to create these tna figures after all these years talk about being lazy.

Some guy was hellbent on proving that they were in fact outselling Mattels, when obviously they weren't. |
