I have always been one of the few who loved those small WWE Dollar General/Family Dollar figures. I tried to get as many as I could and I tweeted Mattel a few times about them only to hear they weren't discontinued, but nothing else. As far as I can tell Sin Cara, Ziggler, and Ryback are the hardest of the bunch to find, so I was shocked when my local Dollar General had Sin Cara and these things (normally $6.50 YIKES) was on clearance and 50% off. I asked if they had anymore in the back because I hoped for a Ziggler and Ryback, but the lady told they only had what was out on the rack and that she assumed they are on clearance because they will not be having them anymore...Bummer! I liked these darn things and I think had the price been better it would have been nice to have had a larger collection of them. Heck, I bought them with the price kinda high. I hope the end isn't near for them, but with no new ones on display at any toy fairs, I guess this is it. Goodbye you awesome (to me at least) WWE series! Maybe one day you will return. Who knows, maybe then you'll at least be WCW Galoob size or LJN size (we can dream can't we?)

They're really cool looking figures, and the attention to detail on such a small scale is impressive. I wish they were available worldwide.

We got the earlier series (on the white card, it had Undertaker, Brodus Clay, Cena, short-haired Bryan) in the UK, and I was never really a fan, but this Sin Cara looks awesome, especially on the card

I enjoyed these too. Hopefully we get more of them. I still need ryback.

There was a Mark Henry proto image floating around these boards awhile back.

$6 each is what killed these

Yes price killed this line. Some stores wanted 7.25 for these mini figures. If they would have kept the price to $5 and had more variety and availability they would have done much better.

I'm just bummed we never got The Shield guys in this style. I'd still love to see them as they are now.

I thought even $5 was steep. I bought Punk and Bryan though.

I hope so. I haven't bought a single one. The only Mattel item I go to Dollar General for is Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars

I asked him/them directly:
"They are no longer being produced. You got all we put out. No plans at this time to put them out again. MDT"
