honestly the line may still be alive but in the end i can't see these being mass marketed anymore. target & toys r us no longer carry them. kmart does but they're closing down stores. so the only viable outlet is shop tna.com if you noticed they have a ton of DI figs now from almost every series thus far & carried 6 right away after it was plugged on impact. they simply don't have the brand awareness that wwe has nor do they have the ability to compete product wise. to me making their own online shop the exclusive distribution channel for their product makes the most business sense. prices are decent & we still get exclusives. as for my hope for DI7, i'm just hoping to see the new championship belt BUT i doubt it. well that's my rant for the day.  |

Wow...
Well, i'll pick up Jeff Hardy, as always.
Apart from that, i will wait and see.
No news on a legends figure is kinda worrying =/

Jakks doesn't care about us...  That's it in a nutshell.  |

I love the first Velvet fig. It's my favorite knockout (or even diva) figure of all time. That being said, I don't think I would want her again if she has the same exact head scan. Knowing Jakks...it probably will be. I know I'll sound like a hypocrite but I'll probably get it anyway. As long as the attire looks good.

What a bummer of a line up. Do all these figures in Ruthless Aggression and you'd have me interested in the same 6 characters

Wow so WTF happened to the 1-per-DI LOTR figure? F*CK THAT! At this point I just wanted that Scott Steiner & Jim Cornette. Can anyone from RSC comment on the LOTR figures?
If no more LOTR figures I guess my days of wrestling figure collecting are over. Thank goodness for the NECA Predator series.

It looks like Jakks is making the series as current as possible since everything before was outdated now. Hence why you see Bobby Roode and Storm with a 1/100 in the set. Just my take on it.

Cool to see another Velvet Sky. I kind of wish it were Tara, Mickie James or Brooke but a KO is a KO and a definite purchase for me.

I really wonder how much the TNA toy license costs, or if Jakks gets it for free and pays royalties to TNA after the fact. They can't possibly make money on lineups like these.

Those are 5 of the biggest names in TNA. They make figures to sell to more than just the collector market. Trust me, I want Legends Scott Steiner and Austin Aries in a bad way, but this lineup seems both economical for Jakks and popular at "mass" retail all in one shot. I think this set will probably sell pretty well all things considered. |

It's torture to see how great it looks and to not get it. |

Well shoot. I wanted Magnus and Douglas Williams, or even Jesse Neal and Shannon Moore.

One question!
WHAT IS JAKKS DOING THE HOLE DAY??
JAKKS released DELUXE IMPACT 6 in October/November 2011.
And now they are working nearly a year to bring out the new series?
