There hasn't been any confirmation that series 10 will not happen, so I don't see why anyone should assume otherwise. I also don't understand the reasoning behind selling your collections because of a few less-than-desirable sets in recent months. That's like collecting the entire RA or DA line and then all of a sudden deciding to sell all of the great figures because a few crappy ones were made along the way. If you lost interest in them that's one thing, but selling them because of the result of series yet to be released just seems...odd. I really doubt these figures will retain much value in the years to come, but it's possible that the last few series may be tough to find one day. I may have given up hope on series 9 and 10, but I look forward to adding future TNA/UFC figures to my collection. Lack of effort was enough for me

cant wait to see the final product I bet Jeff and Eddie will not be in it... no joke, I ouldn't be surprised to see a whole different linup, they'll use jeff because they have the parts. Jesse: requires a new scan, not very popular, not using that gimmick, likely not in the line-up Festus: requires a new scan, not very popular and likely won't make it Dynamite Kid: again, new scanand jakks is lazy and looking to get rid of old parts not likely to be used. Eddie: See Dynamite. Jeff: already has all the parts needed The only Figure I'm expecting to end up in the line-up. R-Truth again, see half the damn line-up, Jakks isn't puting in any effort anymore and R-Truth would likely require detail, if we see him he'll likely have plan pants like the last HBK. Overall I only think we'll get a Jeff and this set will likely be a pass for me. if we get everyone shown though I'll be quit impressed and pickup the whole set.

I bet BNB 10 is full of scattered re-releases.

they will not make Jeff because he left the company and is going to jail, the rest require new scans and details...oh wait never mind on the details. They don't make them anyway...

Is there any reason why there is nothing showing up for BNB10 at the link provided a few posts before me? I hadn't checked it until just now, but I hope that doesn't mean it was removed. I've had the opportunity to purchase BNB8 from several online stores, but I am still holding out for TRU.com. However, the more time that passes, the less I am interested in updating my collection right now.

Just got BnB8. It's sad to see how inconsistent the line is.
Roddy Piper has the RP on his boots but no socks.
The Rock has his bull tattoo but no back design on his shorts! His hair is weird too, it's combed back (a la pre-2001 Rock) but it's the same length all over, which he never had.
Batista, Mysterio and Michaels all represent how far the line has fallen. Batista has no back design on his trunks and a lazy "The Animal" in one-tone white on the front. Michaels in his plain grey pants doesn't even have his arm tattoo. And Mysterio's outfit is the same blue all over.
The Big Show figure's pretty awesome though.

It appears BnB 10 was canceled by Jakks. I emailed RSC today to see what happened to the preorder link for BnB 10 and I was told that Jakks canceled it the day after RSC posted them for Preorder.

Ah, that's what I figured (I wasn't thinking clearly when TSA said the series was "trashed"). Great investigative work, PJ. I guess we all should have expected it sooner rather than later, but it's terribly unfortunate to see how the line will end after such promise. And while pc83uk's post isn't any more comforting, I will still make an attempt to purchase the final two series to my complete my collection.

While I did like (not love) the short lived BnB line I would love to see a similar scale of WWE figures crossover into Mattels future plans. I love the idea of Mattel taking scale seriously and investing into tooling so we will see entirely unique body molds that truely identify with the real character presented. I think we should all make our voices heard and request a BnB scale line. Even if you're not on the Mattel band wagon but like the BnB line wouldn't it be nice to know the possibility of getting a 3.25 inch mysterio and a 4.25-4.5 inch Big show next to your BnB collection. What do we have to lose but a minute of our time. I already started a thread at the Mattel Forum regarding a 18th scale line it would be nice to have others address their concerns and show support. Afterall Mattel did say they are taking our concerns into consideration.

So is BnB 10 not happening? As I said I didn't think most of them would get released but I'm surprised after it was on RSC for pre-order It would come out even if it was just pumped with rereleases to get rid of the old WWE figs for when TNA hits.
