There's a clearance discount store here selling the series 4 and 5 BnBs for £2.99 each, too. Or there was a few weeks back, at least.
I thought of buying a couple of Terminator: Salvation figures and the Indiana Jones with Horse figure today. Saw them in a bargain shop as well, and as there were no WWE Mattel figures around, I was tempted to at least add something to my BnB "roster" (the Terminator figs could be crowd members, the horse for a JBL WrestleMania entrance). I didn't buy them in the end though.

Yeah, I probably would have bought all of series 5 for $20 had I not been looking for Mattel yesterday. I'll still be looking for the Marshalls Series 3 figures, but it's disappointing to not have anything to look forward to with the WWE BNB line.
I wish we could even have another series or two of just repaints, but I know that series 9 is the end.

I think series 8 and 9 convinced me that it was better for the line to die than to exist on that horrible life support machine. I hope TNA do have BnB style figures eventually, it'd be nice to get Hogan/Foley/Angle/Nash/RVD (if he goes there) and so on. Until then, I'll occasionally buy 3.75" figures that take my fancy. The BnB line really got me into that scale of figures.

Agreed, on all parts.
The UFC line doesn't interest me outside of Brock Lesnar, but TNA BNB figures could/should fit in nicely with our WWE collections.

hi i currently own all of series 1 (minus undertaker),series 2,series 3,series 4 & series 7. i was thinking about ordering series 5 online since new zealand wont get it now due to the jakks/mattel thing.so i found a site that had all of series 5 for $75 usa,so i thought thats good,i go to cheekout and the shipping to new zealand i find out is $98! usa so i work out that it would cost me $250! nz That is horrible considering I could have bought the entire fifth series on clearance at Wal-Mart yesterday for under $20. yea well new zealand sucks with wrestling figures,sometimes we get something good and then shops stop buying them cause of a few wrestlers that wont sell and they got stuck with 3 cases of it.or like DAs which we dont get any more cause at the price they werent selling well.

Series 5, for sure, but I have seen one or two from Series 9 surrounded by abandoned pegs at TRU.

I picked up all of series 5 & Deuce from Series 4 on clearance at Target for $1.64 each (except Razor who I already had) and then found Series 2 Kane, Orton & HBK at A.J. Wright for $3.00
So I built up my small BNB collection for about $20 from only the 6 "Classic" guys, to 15 total. im still on the lookout for any other ones i can grab for cheap.

Lucky bum, waiting until they're dirt cheap. I wish I had done that now, but I've got everything I need except for all of the Marshalls Series 3 figures and a Havoc Unleashed ring. Although, I should be getting the resized Umaga from Marshalls later today. Still need the Hardys, Boogeyman, and MVP.

Oh, and I just realized the other day that the final Mysterio in Series 9 differs slightly from the other two released with the same powder blue attire.
Series 9 has no silver paint on the wrists, they're all black.

No, I haven't see any in a long time.
The ring is good for what it is, but Jakks could have done a lot better.
50% larger doesn't equate to 50% better parts, in my opinion, but it is an upgrade from the smaller ring. I just wish Jakks had experimented with different paint applications, such as for a Raw, SmackDown or ECW-themed ring.
Not to mention, I really wanted the Raw and ECW stages, and the Pipers Pit set-up.

Im looking forward to TNA wrestling figures. As much as i love the BnB line i realize what was missing for me ...the lack of Classic Wrestlers that i loved as a kid. I ended up picking up more figures for custom work than for actual love of the line. If TNA remedies that by putting out actual classic wrestlers (or their current incarnations) im on board.
