Lol that's why. Not the plain attire, lame sweater or the fact it was over packed. JR BAF CM Punk does not come with a hoodie, and neither does the BAF Heyman Punk. My TRU has about 15 JR BAF Punk's and about 10 Paul Heyman BAF Punk's. Every single BAF figure ever warms, has nothing to do with him quitting. Sheamus, Del Rio, Ziggler, and Orton didn't quit and I'm convinced tru couldn't give them away at this point.

Punk has always been a hot seller, but the kids who watch the WWE these days have about the same attention span as the creative writing team, so it's really no surprise that his last few figures haven't sold well. John Cena figures warm shelves constantly too, but that doesn't mean he's unpopular.

No joke my TRU in MN has 16 BAF Heyman Punks on the pegs right now. Insane.

Yankees, bay bay. And of course my favourite Punk attire ever. Am I the only one wanting a fm/fc figure scan of that now? :X

His last Elite is clogging up the shelves at my local Wal-Mart. There's at least 9-10 or him and really no one else.

Maybe we are all finally seeing how insignificant we, the collector, are to the brand. We, the collectors, love Punk. General public only buys who they know. He has been gone for ten months. That might as well be 100 years in this business. Kids don't want him, they want whoever is on t.v. We pretend that we are more important than we are. Big Show continues to sell steady. I saw elite 28 Show in greater numbers than elite 29 Punk and yet Show is almost gone from the market around here and took less time to do so. I think elite 29 Punk is gonna survive Christmas and most of next year. He came into the Mattel world a warmer (e1, e6) and now he's left as one.

I know we're far from elite 1 and 6, but I only have elite 29, elite 20, and baf Jr and PH punks. I wish they'll somehow restock on elite 1 and 6 hahaha

There have been so many Punk basic figures as well but when you see so much of one guy they tend to start warming alot. Not many folks want Punk in 100 different colors of underwear.
