All this would be cooled off immediately with a quick "we are having a jazwares event at Revolution 2023" from Jeremy, etc
Lol, Jeremy's busy on Twitter stumping for crypto and trying to buy rare Hogan cards. It's okay! I'm personally excited about the lineup of efficiency repaints and re-releases they've replaced the waves with.

1) it takes quite aome time to produce figs, so "new figs coming in 2023" isnt mutually exclusive, both things can be true at the same time. 2) absolutely not, I love the Jazwares figs much more than the Mattels, but to deny that we've had silence from Jeremy and Jazwares is accurate. Some of us are concerned BEACAUSE we love the line. Even Mattel fans have seen new technology thanks to competition from Jazwares Okay... 1) A lot of these companies, Jazwares included, are on, if not heading into Christmas break. So, there's nothing to really discuss, nor would they. Companies rarely if ever announce the cancellations of lines. 2) China is currently, as we speak, having reduced factory output due to COVID, still. Factories are operating below 50%. As well as dock stoppages in and out. It's affecting EVERYONE. Look at McFarlane diminished output as proof. 3) Most companies these days are not putting out preorders until closer to a finalized release date to keep the window between order and release tighter. This line is no exception. Now do the math. Christmas break+COVID shutdowns+waiting until production is closer to completion= delays and no preorders. Why must you all concoct conspiracy theories and act like the sky is falling because of an annual year end sale that RSC always does--and other companies are currently included in? They just released a TON of items--Unmatched 5, Unrivaled 11, Supreme 2, The RSC Punk, Owen Hart, the announcers, a new exclusive ring, and they have a Thunder Rosa exclusive coming up. Everyone needs to chill out. I know y'all like calling me a dick, but apparently, NOT being a dick means I need to join in inciting needless panic and creating false narratives of failed toylines, and spreading outright BS. I'll take being a dick over that, thank you very much. NECA hasn't put out a Ninja Turtle preorder in a while. Do you think they are canceling their current biggest cash cow? Think, people. All of this AND Chinese New Year is coming up and it shuts everything down for a good while

This has turned into one of the more entertaining threads on the entire board.

Are we sure Jazwares line I is actually making money? I’d be curious to see earnings statements. I like the line a lot and want to see it persist, but even the next few waves seem like ancient news in terms of relevancy. Santana/ Ortiz, new Rosas , Brodie Lees etc You can’t fault fans for concerns and wanting more transparency. Mattel meanwhile updates their site once a month at least

Santana/ Ortiz, new Rosas , Brodie Lees etc You can’t fault fans for concerns and wanting more transparency. Mattel meanwhile updates their site once a month at least Comparing Mattel to Jazwares is apples to oranges. One is the largest toy manufacturer in the world, and the other is simply attempting to take a seat at the table. Like the post you quoted said, there’s been various factors as to why there hasn’t been any new reveals lately. COVID, shipping issues, possibly changing factories, Chinese New Year. Call them excuses if you want, but there’s been no word that this line is in trouble. And during all of this, we’re still getting plenty of figures like Owen, Street Fighters, Walmart Cody, Target Darby and Sammy, ect… Unless there’s an official word from Jazwares or Jeremy, this is just the usual “doom and gloom” from people who have never worked in or researched the manufacturing industry.

Am I off?

The whole *company* is in trouble, yes-- and Jeremy Padawer is on top of the Empire State Building as we speak, holding the CEO of Mattel hostage. He apparently is demanding that the CEO buys all of Jeremy's Pokemon cards to fund the AEW toyline--or he throws him from the building. It's getting ugly.

I already know we're probably not getting any more CM Punk figures for a different reason, but I just hope we get those HOOK and Danhausen figures. (and the Acclaimed)
After that. It's whatever.

End of July 2020 so into the covid era he posted: “What retro style FIGURES would you prefer to see celebrated in AEW wrestling figs?! Not athletes. Figure style. RT! Need maximum responses!” He gave options to vote on of 84-89 and 90-94 I’m assuming the first is ljn and the second hasbro. Hasbro style won 74% leaving ljn with 26% Obviously they started a ljn line but if that was the intention why even ask the question when three quarters wanted the other style

Included were surfer,'97/'98 Sting and Wolfpac. That tease is probably going to last till the end of time. Such a shame because I would probably buy most of them even though I don't love how the proportions look on the AEW figures.

I wish Sting would sign a Legends deal with Mattel, but that's not happening anytime soon.
