I was watching a 2013 episode of Grimes Toy Show and saw this old TNA figure on the shelves, can't seem to work out who it is though?
The most recent time I saw a TNA Marvel figure on the shelves was probably in 2009 in either Tesco or The Entertainer here in the UK.

where in that video posted do you see a tna figure? the only shot of him in the store is so quick and blurry that I cant make out any figures on the shelf.

Completely off topic but I'm going to throw this out there anyway:
While working at a Toys R Us during the Christmas season of 2003 or 04 I found a case of ECW figures. I tried to hide them so I could buy all of them later (or figure out a way to buy the whole case) but someone found them and put them on the floor.

I feel like I remember them still being around in 2009 at KB toys when they closed. Which is a shame, because I wasn't into them at the time and they were probably dirt cheap.
This is the last time I can recall seeing the officially packaged ones at retail. I say this, because in 2013 I remember seeing a rash of returns in the course of 3 months which were Mattel WWE boxes with TNA figures stuffed in them. I saw an Elite 20 Santino returned with a Senshi in it's place. Which is dumb because I believe that Senshi goes for a deal more than Santino.

Similar story: there was a fella that used to set up at baseball cards shows in the area with WWF, WCW, and Starting Line Ups. I saw the Green Card Hasbros for the first time at his stand in July 1995. "When did those come out?!" I asked as my eyes wandered beyond the 1-2-3 Kid I had just seen for the first time to Ludvig, Adam Bomb, and more. "I think last winter or so. They weren't released everywhere and are no longer available to order from the company," the man said. "Woah! Andre the Giant LJN in the package?! How long have you had that?!" "About 24 hours. I just bought it at KB Toys. Someone said they found it in the back." *Sticker has red line through it, marked down to $1.99 from $9.99. Card in C-7 condition.* Anyhow, back to topic, last I saw TNA Marvel figures were a few straggler Monte Browns at a K-Mart that I used to raid for clearance video games in about 2011 or 2012.

It may have been spring 2009, but the last time I remember seeing them was when I took a vacation in Dallas and found a KB Toys that was closing. They had all the figures for about $3-4 a piece if I remember correctly.
