Some of my all time wanted figures are Bullet Club ones from 2014-2018, it feels like a completely untapped market that’s kinda insane that NJPW did capitalise on when they were at their peak
Cleaner Kenny Omega in the supreme line would arguably be figure of the year, it’s a shame AJ , Finn and The Good Brothers are in WWE because having a set of all the Bullet Club members would be unreal

Not likely, at least any time soon. Aside from the Owen and Jericho Luminaries figures, the line has been exclusively AEW-centric. The best bet is some ROH branded figures that cross over into that era.

Nooj aren’t gonna want to split profits on something like that. Unless something changes Jazwares are only going to do AEW signed wrestlers in AEW or ROH attires with a couple outliers like Lionheart Jericho and Owen Hart
Perhaps they could try to do an Omega in the green trunks from his Japan freelance era (or just 2009 ROH) and they’ll certainly do ROH Bucks, perhaps they could try to get the Bullet Club logo rights for specific figures like that because it was an attire worn in ROH. But don’t expect a ton of NJPW crossover

Best hope is probably some Luminaries entries for the likes of Kenny or the Bucks, but I wouldn't even bank on them being expressly Bullet Club branded.

As cool as it would be, I really doubt it. NJPW seems to be moving forward with Super 7.
The Luminaries spot has some great candidates though. Imagine the figures for Taz, Christopher Daniels, Jerry Lynn, Malenko, Arn, Jarrett, & Jake Roberts.

Imagine the figures for Taz, Christopher Daniels, Jerry Lynn, Malenko, Arn, Jarrett, & Jake Roberts. Absolutely. But so far all we've seen is an obscure Mexico Jericho, Stampede Owen, and a ROH Punk that may or may not ever see the light of day. I'd love to be wrong, but my expectations aren't high for the luminaries slot |

At this point, if they're committed to those sublines, they might want to consider making one exclusive to Unmatched and the other to Unrivaled, and doing them every wave. Even under ideal release conditions, getting something like 3 or 4 of either in a year seems crazy to me.
I'd be curious how possible NJPW looks for the BC guys are, but Jazwares will likely be cautious about that.

I definitely think there's wisdom in that (I co-sign that idea), but I think they could also do away with the LJNs in 2023. Every time I see them, they're warming shelves and I don't see a lot of excitement for them online. |

It's a bummer. it’s been odds LJN, evens Luminaries 1 Cody LJN, 2 Sting Luminaries, 3 Darby LJN cancelled, 4 Lionheart Luminaries, 5 Darby LJN, 6 Owen Luminaries, 7 Punk LJN, 8 Punk Luminaries idk if it’s continuing after that because the lineups don’t look like they would have them but we will see I guess, could stop after 6 depending on what happens |

Regal could be Luminaries if Sting was in Series 2 tho |

Closest I could see is maybe, if the line goes long enough and the AEW/NJPW business relationship remains good, licensing the Bullet Club logos for Luminaries of ROH Bullet Club gear on the Bucks, Kenny, and Adam Cole.

They were just not the company to pull that off. Although even then I was hoping it'd continue and they would try getting the Stardom rights.

I just don’t really see it happening, but hey, I wouldn’t rule it out and I’d buy them if they did. The Bucks cycle through attires at such a rapid pace that Jazwares has no shortage of options without having to look to NJPW or PWG.
But, if you want a weird silver lining, we could end up with a Jazwares Kota Ibushi by 2024.
