I'm a huge Hangman fan and was gonna try to get all of his figs but I just can't go $60+ after ship for this.
Miss the four pack but kinda glad I did

I snagged the 4-pack at least, but I'm just not making it a priority to preorder any of the newer stuff. Kind of surprised they had basically nothing to reveal (besides new levels of disappointment).

I hate to wish bad on something, but I really HOPE Jazwares does lose the licenses sooner rather than later. Promise after promise and no delivery. Jeremy has never been great with a figure company (sure, rose color glasses everyone looks at te figures they grew up on in the jakks era if that was your childhood but you can’t disagree that there were plenty of monstrosities, false advertising, and all around terrible choices made throughout its run) Get AEW to hasbro or something. Jazwares is a joke I’d be good with this so long as the new company keeps the same scale

Jazwares: I like your figures … but I hate your choices on how and when to distribute them.

That 1 of 3000 went fast.
But jazwares motto: the waiting is the hardest part 😆

Jazwares ing sucks man. So does Jeremy. I never understood the theory that Jeremy has (and I think he got this from Todd Mcfarlane) about banking so much on the chase/rare figures. I am fine with it if it is something like X wrestler in different colored trunks, etc, but to make whole characters like Bunny and now Abadon as a chase figure in itself, just doesn't make sense to me. Unless they are going to re-release them at a mass release down the road to get their money out of the tooling, it just doesn't make sense to me. Plus, (in my opinion, but I suspect in the minds of a lot of people), once you get to a point where you cannot get every wrestler, people are going to lose interest overall. It is one thing to miss out on Wardlow in blue trunks instead of purple trunks, but is another thing to have the Butcher and the Blade, but not be able to get the Bunny to go along with them. I just don't get the 'company plan' to have your chase figures create 'buzz' around a figure line to boost sales - it just doesn't work. I don't get it.
Read Jeremy's clearly self-written Wikipedia page sometime. He's a lifelong collector scene grifter. This is a guy who was squatting on domain names in the early internet era. He was in on the Beanie Baby craze at its peak. I'm half-convinced he altered his last name to the extremely rare Padawer, and I'm saying that because his Wikipedia page brags about his ability to manipulate Yahoo search results. He probably came up through the comics and sports card bubbles of the 90s and doesn't know any other way to be.

So, let me get this straight.
Unmatched Luminaries CM Punk's unpainted render was revealed at All Out Fan Fest 2022.
The actual figure is coming out...
*checks notes*
...JANUARY 2024?
There are very few loose ends I want to tie up collection-wise (order exclusive Acclaimed, Luminaries CM Punk, Danhausen etc.), but I am so very done with Jazwares. This "reveals panel" was an absolute joke. They have demonstrated that they are incapable of putting out a consistent product. We are not in the supply chain pandemic anymore. No other figure manufacturer is struggling as Jazwares does with AEW. It is embarrassing.
Honestly, Jazwares might as well just stick with Ringside Exclusives. Those seem to be the only consistent, relatively timely releases they put out.

The four pack is random, just cause I don’t think any of these folks were champ at the same time.

I'll give Jazwares credit for this - 4 figures with nice gold paint, that looks gold not green, and won't have to corrected on the final product.

You're doing ok if your a McFarlane Toys fan nowadays. For the rest of us, It just feels like the entire industry is at a slow drip right now. But This, Jazwares this is almost a 100% drought.
