Did I miss something?? Was it literally just that Ricky Stark clip? That’s all. WOW…I’m starting to rethink my AEW collection more and more 🤦🏻♂️

I'm confused why anyone thought was going to be anything else? The "Workplace Wednedays" title screamed dumb skit to me.
TBH, that also might be me just being totally zoned out on this line. I'm very happy with the Punks and Elite figures it added to my collection, generally happy with the ones I have, and will still buy Vault or RSC exclusives if it's something I want, but generally I really have zero expectation about the future or mainline figures being released.

To add to Crush's post: Some of you all are incredibly dramatic. 🙄 Jazwares released one of the top figs of the year with the Supreme CM Punk, but a lame socials post makes you finally quit the line? Eeesh. Jazwares isn't open about their lines (any of them) - we can go talk to Steve and Mattel if that's your jam, but it won't ever be Jazwares it seems. We have to accept that about Jazwares and give up complaining about it. Let's enjoy the surprise in the unknown instead of whine about it. (Bring on the flames, I just don't care)

We don’t have to accept anything, they took a line with a ton of interest and potential and ran it into the ground

Jazwares needs to be conscious of the customer base this line still has and READ THE ROOM.
Good lord.

Between the months of silence, making superstars exclusive to the chase concept, and lack of communication about how the limited supply vault figures are gonna work it’s getting harder and harder to stay excited about this line, which is a shame because it had so much hype/potential for the first year

These are absolute embarrassments. I hope AEW is able to negotiate with a company who has their stuff together more than Jazwares does. I was so high on them early on and they have done wrong by fans at almost every turn.

I have no idea how they failed so hard at this.
But then
I have no idea how hard AEW has failed at ANY of this. They have all the tools at their disposal to be stellar, how is the company as a whole just failing this miserably?

All this money spent on these promo videos better lead to something because otherwise, product is still stagnant or empty. The promise of new waves consistently on pegs starting in the fall and clearing out the old stock was a huge flop in many areas including mine.

I'd like to know how we literally saw the language on the boxes telling stores to ship back all the old figures that don't sell yet all Targets around me still have Nyla Rose from 3 years ago.

Retail employees not reading the box and just putting stuff out is how. Had some walmarts take stuff off and others that didn't. The ones that did have gotten more in since the ones that didn’t only got a box of each unrivaled and unmatched.

Personally I don’t think it should be a minimum wage retail worker’s job to fix a toy company’s mistake. Adding to that, when they announced that they were going to do this, it was said they would be sending in sales reps or something similar to do it for them.
