To anyone that collected those WWE statues from Eaglemoss, they have apparently ended the line. I found out today when I called them to replace one that arrived broken.
While this is disappointing, to be honest, most of these were pretty poor anyway, at least when it came to the paintjobs. The faces looked absolutely nothing like the wrestler. Sure, a few of them were decent, but overall these were definitely not worth the same price tag as an elite.
Very frustrating that the company couldn't even send an email out however to let subscribers know that it was ending.

Not entirely true. Subscription is cancelled. You can still buy the figures and they will release more.

My wife preordered a Hogan/Andre in November and it finally shipped yesterday. If this is the end for them, I’m glad I got this before it’s too late.

It was only a matter of time. Most of them e discounted two months after release. And do we really need big stars like Miz? If they focused on Legends the would have found a more niche market. I have a few and practically everyone I need one of.
It was cool while it lasted...

I’ve thought about getting these but the likenesses and paint applications put me off.

I truly never understood the market for these. Not being negative -- just truly don't understand why you would buy these instead of figures? They're cheaper, but the quality is SO MUCH worse. Where would you even display them?

I only have two of them. Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. I was hoping to eventually get the 4HW, but they sold out before I could buy them.
Pity, I kind of liked these. At least they made both Kevin and Sami so I could have a matched set. When Ambrose/Moxley left, they hadn't made him yet, so you couldn't finish the Shield. You could do the horsewomen, but the Sasha and Bayley were the old styles for them which, in my opinion, didn't fit with having Becky's "Evolved" THE MAN gimmick. If I could have had my way, I'd have made the same Becky and Charlotte, but Blue Sasha and Heel Bayley. That would have been awesome for me and I'd gladly have bought them.
Still, sad about this. Another line I liked ended. Story of my life.
Although, my biggest sadness of them is that the OTHER Eaglemoss collectibles aren't in the same scale. I'd love to go all out on the Doctor Who and Game of Thrones lines, but with those ones only being 3.5 inches or so, it isn't worth it even if they're the only real figure/figurines you can get of those shows.
