Has there ever been a time when more companies have been making wrestling figures at the same time?

This past Saturday while at Toys R Us I saw about six Mr. Anderson figures on a peg for $11.99 each. Now, when TNA came out in its final waves they only really went to TRU but I also remember them getting clearanced on their way out. So I'm wondering why TRU would put out six of the same figure (seems strange for a return) and at $11.99 each as well (seems strange for a "We found these in the back" scenario) It is the final version of Mr. Anderson, which is on RSC for $2.99. I don't know if I was more surprised that they were all of Mr. Anderson, that they were actually still in TRU or that they were priced at $11.99 but I'd have to say the price really threw me off, like TNA and Jakks were back at it again. Thoughts?

My KMart still sells TNA figures for $10.99. I actually picked up Crimson not too long ago. I think he was on clearance for $10.00 haha. But yeah that's odd that TRU had Mr. Anderson and for such a high price. I don't think you could pay me to buy it lol.

I remember when my KB's toys went out of business they marked down everything dirt cheap, and for some reason they had a BCA 2 pack of Al snow and Hardcore holly...I picked it up of course.
This was in 2006 or 2007.

If any store around here still had TNA figures I would probably cry. Jakks, what once was great died a lousy death there at the end. By the way, did we ever find out what the new WWE toys they were making? I have zero expectations that it will be anything of note.

Jakks makes those Roleplay sets with the titles, masks, MitB, etc. Target endcaps and such. I like Jakks 4" and 6" Nintendo figures though. |

I don't think you could pay someone to buy them. My Kmart still has one more Magnus that was $10.99 but is now $10.00. Kmart is notorious for lame mark downs. Honestly I wouldn't pay anything over $7 for a TNA figure.

I'd buy it... For 2.99 on RSC.
But I also need some sort of Kennedy/Anderson, so I'll buy one if I find it.

The last series that came out was literally a case of half Mr. Anderson and half Velvet Sky, so it stands to reason that they'd have a lot of Andersons stacked up in the back.
