This one is pretty straight forward. I just don't really think these are working out for me. I got both Codys because they were new and I wanted to support the line. But then Darby got delayed and by the time it came out, the Supreme Line had been announced and released so I just passed on it because of money & space. Punk is the next one planned and we don't even know if we'll even get it now. So I'm curious how you all feel about them. Should they just scrap the idea and dedicate the sixth slot in Unmatched to only Luminaries? Should they sell them as one offs through Ringside/Walmart/Target/Amazon? Or do you still want them just as they are?

Love them and im a die hard ljn guy but its super frustrating that we are 12 series in and we only have 3 figures and 1 is a repaint lol. It should be its on subset or needs to be released more often to build any kind of set of these. The codys always did well around here. Even when the blues lingered on they eventually sold after multi restocks. I was only able to order the red. Never saw it in stores. Ive yet to see darby at retail

Iโd rather get a first time in the line figure instead

I wasn't a fan of the LJN figure inclusion in the line mixed with the other regular figures. If they wanted to make them have either a dedicated line for them or have them pop up in stores from time to time like the ppv series the wwe line has. I feel like that style of figures work more with a legends roster to better go along with the already existing LJN figures. It just seems pointless to make current stars in that style when most of the roster will probably never get a figure in that style imo. I get the appeal but it's not for me.

They shouldnโt be in the mainline should be an exclusive

I like them, but having only two in 12 or so Series has taken the hype away a wee bit. I'd really like a one off Series of just LJN's but I don't know how well that'd do.

I have no interest in them, so I would definitely prefer them to drop it.

Iโll be interested to see if Darby shelf warms as much as Cody, at least in my area

I don't really care either way outside of wanting the Punk if it actually comes out I will say this though, considering each LJN has been an anchor name in the set, I wouldn't expect that spot to go to a FTITL or a Luminary if they're dropped.

GameStop, Ringside or Target exclusives. Big long preorder window. For those who want them.
I think they're a huge waste in the regular line.

They aren't for me. But, I assume people must be buying them because they keep making them.
Jazwares is still hit and miss for me, so I'm not confident that replacing them with a traditional figure is going to help my collection.

I couldn't care less about any nostalgia inspired figures in this line, be it LJN, Hasbro, Bone Crunchers, Toybiz, etc.

I don't collect retro, but if people like them, keep making them.

I'd prefer they use those slots for more Luminaries figures.

Drop them. My Walmart still has about 8 of the blues and 1-2 red Codyโs on the shelves. Theyโve been there for months now

They would be better off in the place of the ShopAEW/arena exclusives, and making all Unmatched sets have a luminary
I think making them some sort of exclusive and not hogging a spot in the main line is the way to go. Personally I like them so I donโt want them completely cancelled but moved somewhere better

One LJN figure every other wave of one specific line is ridiculous. That's half a year of figures to get a tag team. I don't see how this is sustainable without significant exclusive support.

I really like them, but I don't like them in the regular line as many have said. Just takes too long to get them out there and it also takes a spot away from the regular line which has some glaring holes for talent that needs to be released.
