You miss the point. How many times does a male superstar get made in figure form? Count the kanes, cenas, ortons, punks, etc. You can make a new mold if you think you will get 20 uses out of it. Sometimes, like a tensai, it doesnt work out that way. But with a diva, you figure they know they won't use it more than 2 or 3 times. Not worth the time or money really. I understand what your saying, but they are always going to make divas. It won't be like it won't ever be used; to have different molds. Yeah, but say they make a chyna. Who else would need her molds ever? Or kharma? And not many time will you need a booty like naomi or a legs like stacy kiebler. And how many times can you make the same diva? Even aj who was insanely popular got like 5 or 6 figures total. Cena gets that in 6 months. Its just more financially smart to do it how they do. It would be nice to have perfect figures, but just like the ryback is too small and ziggler is too big stuff...it just isnt that important.

It's a matter of cost, surely. If the budget allowed for Mattel to produce accurate body molds for each Diva then I'm sure we'd have them. I'd have to disagree. A lot of the males have different molds. Big E's thick thighs, Tensai's torso, The Sheild's molded pocket pants, Kane's new torso. So there is a budget to make changes in the basic figures mold. Since divas release in the basic lines too, then they're is an opportunity to have slight differences in the divas mold too. You miss the point.

And then we would lose accessories, paint details, articualtion, etc.
99% of the time the answer to the question is BUDGET.
Does a new ass mold for naomi mean enough to you to not get that nicely done attire shes in?
Would bigger boobs on nikki mean enough to not get the detail we got on her last figure?
Would a taller paige be enough to miss out on the 2 belts she came with?
All no for me. Im fine with the divas looking how they do.

I like this place. I like seeing collections, finding out when new things are spotted so i can get on the lookout for them...
But some people man...who cares where it belongs? If its in the wrong place, the mods can move it...otherwise...CHILL THE HELL OUT.
And tatanka may be the easiest pass ever for me

I swear some of you people just complain for the sake of complaining... Razors arms are too small Dolphs arms are too big Rybacks torso is too small Seths hair is wrong seth doesnt have a belt Is there any figure made that you guys dont rip apart? Man, just be happy the figures resemble the wrestlers. When i was a kid, half of them you couldnt even tell who they were. Your inner kids are ashamed of you. Which would be great, if this was still the year 1996, when figures only cost $5.99 at KB Toys. In 1996 what did milk cost? What does it cost now? Are you getting better milk now? Also, most jobs pay a hell of a lot more now than they did in 1996. I agree a lot of figures could be made better fairly easily, but its just not that serious to me. Its toys. Played with or not, boxed or loose...they are in the toys section for a reason. I have much bigger issues in my life than the size of the biceps of my toys. I literally saw a post on here some weeks ago saying that nikki bella didnt have big enough boobs on her figure... I dont know man, its america, and everyone is well within their rights to bitch about whatever they choose. But im also within my rights to think some of it is beyond stupid. I just think we have been spoiled to the point where we feel entitled...and thats never good.

How does it sound like im a jakks guy when im ripping the people that complain about mattel? So many things i could say, but ill take the high road and just ask you to either read my comment again, or better word your response. He means you're a Jakks guy because you expect/accept less than the best. I don't care if they do something like this personally cause I understand they don't have the mold. But they use the right arms for Ziggler's basics. And things like incorrect paint apps (Rollins hair) can be easily fixed as well. Well, i mean, if thats not expecting my 20 dollar toy to be 100 percent perfect, with real growing hair that we can cut and style, 100 catchprases programmed into it, and the actual ability to curbstomp that bitch ass reigns figure i have...then yeah. Guilty. Its a toy. With a budget. That is expected to turn profit. More goes in, price goes up, same people bitch. Or, the obvious solution...if people know so much about this stuff, take bill's job and show what you got. My son doesnt cry about the lack of a molded belt. He doesnt cry if his ninja turtles arent coming with cloth shirts. He just appreciates what he has and plays. Lets all learn some life lessons from a ing 3 year old..
