This line won't make it out of next year. AEW and wrestling in general is a niche product, and Jazwares is killing off the few fans that want their products. This line is dead. You are stretching that a tad arent you? We bitch bitch and bitch but everyone of us are still the first people to buy the products the second they launch.

Can’t buy it if WalMart drops it which is going to be what happens if Jazwares doesn’t start sending them product to stock. They lose Walmart the line is over because it can’t survive as a RSC exclusive.

The folks saying that a line selling out instantly and getting a more lucrative deal with the retailer is a sign of its imminent doom?

I got the same response from them 2 days ago. Lol. This didn’t age well. Nope. Last week I emailed again and they said 1 to 2 weeks. This week is over so let's hope for next week.

If Jazwares can’t provide stock then Walmart will drop the line and assign the shelf space to something else. No store wants empty shelves because it looks bad to customers

God this site is hilarious Wrestling is a niche TV show. People that collect wrestling figures are an even smaller subsection of fans. This line has been a failure because they can't get product out. COVID isn't an excuse because none of their other products are having this problem. The belts and rings are showing up no problem. Jeremy even admitted to deliberately undershipping the line so he could create artifical scarcity. Explain how this line hasn't been a failure? None of their promises have been fulfilled.

I’m confused, are you saying it’s the board members, Walmart, or Jazwares that doesn’t understand economics... Bro Im not here to start a flame war with anyone. Walmart picked up a small order of this line when no one else wanted to take a chance and it sold out like crazy. It did so well, Wal Mart upped their orders and we have ALREADY had an announcement that this line is EXPANDING STARTING IN FALL 2021. So I guess Im just confused how this spells DOOM for the line. My initial post is in response to anyone delusional enough to think the AEW line is somehow doing anything but growing. Next year if we are looking at this situation then Id say the critique would be far more reasonable. And please ship out my series 2 Im itching so bad

Series 1, sans Jericho, is warming the pegs here in STL.

The skin tone issues. Disappearing Brandi. In the UK, retailers aren't getting the figures they ordered, and are having to refund pre-orders (not just Series 1, but Series 2 is apparently going to be similar). And figures are coming out way behind the original schedules. I think the last one is overblown, but there are issues with quality control, production and distribution. But you're also correct that the figures selling well. My local store sold out of the Jericho/Omegas they received within a week. The demand is there. As long as Jazwares don't use up that good will by promising too much and under-delivering, the line will be fine.

I’m losing faith in this line very quickly. Son of a c#ck! Jeremy needs to be more transparent about this. If they had mentioned this two weeks ago I’d be less pissed. I joked yesterday in the Hollywood post that they would arrive before Unrivaled 2, but that seems to be pretty accurate, even though I had to get Hogan on back order

Good job, Jeremy.
I wonder where I stand in the first-come first-serve line.

I think I said in some post a couple weeks ago. Elite 82 before AEW series 2. I think I'll hit that statement
