tim ash chose some good questions to ask, but chose very obvious questions also. He didn't even ask mine which was on the first page of the thread either Anyways, he should've been more pushy with the question about continuing a classic line in tna. Jeremy just said "I don't know," I would have liked him to give thought into it even if the answer was a no.

Tim Ash messed up my question and didn't notice that the answer made no sense!
Jeremy asked what repaints we want, here's my top 10:
1.Barbarian (singles attire) 2.Warlord (singles attire) 3.Sherri (black dress hair down) 4.Tugboat 5.Mr Perfect (yellow attire w/ blue back) 6.Virgil (wrestling attire) 7.Rick Rude (short hair) 8.Cactus Jack (WCW attire w/leopard print women’s top) 9.Rick Martel (purple attire w/ black jacket, “Yes I Am A Model badge and Arrogance atomizer) 10.LOD 2000/80s (matching partners for CS9)

Jeremy is class act, a suit who gives a damn and probably does everything within his parameters to give a great product to collectors......most of the folks on this board who constantly complain, whine, bitch and moan simply don't understand most executives typically could careless about what the customer wants-they simply want you to spend money.
Jeremy actually cares about what most of us think, want and will typically listen to most ideas. Folks, this hasn't & usually doesn't happen in any other forms of business.....think about it-look at current gas prices, everyone complains-but who in authority really cares.
I give Jeremy & his design team their "props" and I appreciated the fact he "manned up" and admitted they miss the mark sometimes, but as the saying goes-"To make an omlet, you gotta break a few eggs".
-Peace Out, -Wagdaddy

It'll be sweet to have some classic Van Dam's hopefully he does get signed, same with Raven. "Real Scale Arena that will make the RSREC AND HIAC look small" - I don't care how much it is, i'm buying it.

I found this interview to be very helpful. I just wished there were a date set for Hornswoggle. Thanks Tim Ash for the interview

I was pretty dissapointed in this interview. I appreciate Jeremy taking the time to try and answer questions, but really we havent learned much. 90% of the questions were revolving around CS and who is signed and who is not. We know what has been and whats not. Jeremy has always been great at announcing these right away. Dont you think if Savage was signed, he would have already announced it? Waste. Jeremy pretty much answered every question the same way......Yes, we would like to. I know for legal reasons he cannot spell in detail certain things or release future lineups, etc. But, to say Yes, we want to. How has that answered the question? You say that about everything. His comments regarding the RA line coming to an end........like I said before, I could be wrong. BUT my opinion remains the same. I believe the line is done. Toyfair showed us now new RA figures. Jakks has been releasing tons upon tons of repainted RA figures or just rereleases themselves, IE Trios 7. They have put little to no effort into this line. I could be wrong, but Jakks and Jeremy have done nothing to prove me otherwise wrong. Time will tell. Jeremy mentioned UMF numerous times and sticking with the line. He failed to address TRU cancelling all future orders of this line, as well as discounting them. He said the line would continue. But he also contradicted himself. Jeremy stated that somethings cannot get done b/c they have to consider profits in mass retail and what the mass retailer wants. He named a few. However, TRU has clearly said they have no interest in UMF and yet they are willing to continue to put time and resources into it for what might become an internet based toyline. Dont get me wrong, I have no issue with UMF. But it just didnt make a whole lot of sense. For me, Jakks has always put forth a great effort and I am glad that in 2010 they will continue to produce wrestling figures. Jakks does the best job when it comes to figures witrh detail, the number of figs, accessories, etc. But this interview lacked substance. It lacked information. I just wish we would have had some better questions asked and gotten some additional information concerning the direction of Jakks. Open ended answers doesnt cut it, as far as I am concerned. Thanks. THE RA LINE IS NOT ENDING BEFORE THE DA LINE.

I can't complain too much about the interview. You know that there are vertain topics that Jeremy will not or cannot talk about and I am sure part of the is for legal reasons, but overall there were quality questions asked and he gave pretty good insightful answers,

the problem with this interview is horrible selection of question who cares about cs people when they sign them they will tell us they know what we want why waste time on that crap.
I asked a serious question considering the new stage says it recognizes superstars and how they plan on executing that with less then a year left once its released. ALA tron
and no one asks about CSDA thats the only set i collect religiously and he could have actually answered questions since they have the superstar contracts and its on them who they choose so why not ask that dammit i dont give a crapabout who is signed it will be announced when their signed people
