After Jakks stop making TTL and brought in RA style figures I stop collecting. Mattel got me back into it and if they stop making Elites I'm done for good.

It's funny really...the people who are saying that they will quit collecting if Jakks gets the license back are some of the same people who said they would quit when Mattel took over in 2010. I refuse to go back to lower quality, and final figures that don't look as good as the prototype. Jakks being anywhere near figures worries me that they're going to eventually come back, and I'd really hate that. If Jakks comes back full force then I am legitimately done for good. Conversely if Jakks came back, then I'd return to collecting. |

This is no different than the deal WWE has with Funko Pop. Any company can license toys to multiple companies as long as they are different toys and not in direct competition to each other. The same way Hasbro can make their own 3 3/4 inch and 6 inch Star Wars toys while they have Sideshow makes 12 inch toys and LEGO making their stuff. This won't interfere with Mattel at all. Agreed. |

They are almost identical to stackdown Bullship. Stackdown figures have more articulation, so you can actually wrestle with them. These are minecraft dolls with product licenses. If the scale fits though, they could be half-decent Stackdown crowds/ring crew etc. |

After all the Mattel guys freaking out in the early pages it sure is good to see a few Jakks guys show up.

It will be cool to see Jakks products on the shelf again but it's also kinda sad to think of all the potential they had and how they pissed it away. The lack of effort or even at times attempt at effort during the last year and a half of the original Jakks run is just disappointing. When they put the right effort in they can make the best wrestling action figures imaginable, but they just quit. I can't forget that terrible HBK/Taker WrestleMania pack or the naked mark Henry, their decision making was absolutely mind boggling at times but when they were on their game, they were the best around.

I hope this means a Jakks CS comeback with MM , Steamboat and the adorable Adrian Adonis ! I would love to see Jakks eventually make figures especially the rebirth of the CS line! I would also like Mattel to keep their license as well. Competition would only make better quality control from both companies, better product, and competitive pricing. |

I honestly like Jakks, I started collecting with them (don't get me wrong, I love Mattel figs to death) but it would be very interesting to see what Jakks could do with the current roster. I hope they bring back the Micro Aggression  |
