Watch all the female figures be chases going forward. That would NOT shock me whatsoever. We know a majority of them sell poorly and Jazwares' stupid case assortments aren't helping. Toni Storm as a chase would have people rioting lmao "We switched the females to chase only and suddenly they are selling REALLY well and reselling for 3x the price! We fixed the underselling figure problem! Quick! Make anyone not Jericho, Moxley, Sting or Omega 5x per case and a RANDOM 6th in case as a chase!" -Jeremy Padawer, probably.

Hasbro does this too. If it's a lesser popular Marvel character or a female usually they get short-packed because of the reason you stated.....but that is a big difference from 1 per case to 1 per whenever.

But what was clogging shelves rhio Britt Nyla so they figured make then 5k quantities and move product. Britt still sells. It's not a female exclusive problem either. My local Walmart has had Scorpio Sky, Frankie Kazarian, Nyla Rose all shelf warm. They have Hobbs, Eddie Kingston, Christian, Brian Cage all shelf warming for WEEKS and are most likely still there as I type this. The product itself has cooled off immensely due to poor distribution and marketing. Thunder Rosa from that wave has sold through a while ago when the case came in. They can move product by putting more of the bigger names in cases and the other lesser-known wrestlers WILL sell. It will always be an uphill battle for female figures in a "boy" centered line but it doesn't have to be impossible. Hell if they want they could do a RSC line JUST for female figures and keep a FEW bigger names in the main retail line. Jamie Hayter, Toni Storm, Saraya, Britt Baker, Thunder Rosa for retail. Online through RSC for others.

That's a bummer if FTITL figures end up as chases. We've got multiple repaints throughout the couple years of this line, and by the time retail gets figures, I've already had them for months. I'm not really going hunting at stores for AEW stuff unless it's an exclusive, and those have even been pretty easy to come by.
I don't know how many people in general run into chases (I've found a Thunder Rosa in the wild and nothing else), so I would have just preferred short packing figures if sales are really that bad. I don't know how you solve the retail stock problem in general because they are way, way behind on product compared to Mattel right now.

I haven’t placed my order yet because I’m trying to get clarification on how we get Bunny. Being chase only sucks but out my control.
Is she going to be randomly sent in Blade orders since that’s her husband and maybe what could be perceived as the least popular other character in the line? I say this because I know multiple people wanting Butcher but not Blade due to his music career. That’s how chases have been on RSC to date - randomly placed with corresponding order.
Are they waiting til they see how many are in cases and do a surprise drop around shipment time with like a $50 to $80 price point?
I don’t really want to order my others until I have a plan on how I can aim to collect every new character, which unfortunately Bunny in this spot is.

This is such a stupid decision, i couldn't stand it when Mattel did this, i was so happy when they announced they were done with that, now Jazwares is doing this, this is gonna be the straw that broke the camel's back for a lot of collectors
From the radio silence all year to this, it's getting a lot harder to be a fan of this line, they have all these series' announced, who even knows when they'll even come out

Just when you think maybe this line has some hope after the months of no product they go to this stupid chase only gimmick for superstars, truly hope the Jazawares deal expires soon at this rate and someone else gets the line

They really make it hard to be a fan of this toy company. I don’t really complain a lot about the line but I think I’ve reached my limit. Why make the bunny a freaking chase? Who’s making decisions over there?

I'm actually gutted. I every have every female wrestler made by Jazwares. If I cannot get a Bunny figure for retail I don't see how I can continue to support this line.
Making collections uncompletable has killed off much more popular and longer-running toy lines (Star Trek by Playmates comes to mind). I don't understand why Jazwares is doing this.

I can't imagine that Sammy figure selling enough to make it worth it, but who knows.
Seems clear Jazzwares didn't think Bunny would sell enough based on past performance and their data. Just saw in the SDCC panel, Jeremy hinted she could be direct to consumer...

I'm just happy I'm finally able to order this Danhausen,hate it for the ones that wanted Bunny tho. She wasn't one I was planning to pick up but this is just another bump in the road for this line 🤦🏻♂️

Well I have already stopped wasting my money on this line.... The quality is very poor and their marketing schemes are just out of this world.

Is Wardlow's TNT Championship Title Belt different from Sammy Guevara's TNT Championship Title Belt (black strap)?? Are they both different from Darby Allin's TNT Championship Title Belt?? Can we expect Scorpio Sky's TNT Championship Title Belt in the near future??
