After further review I think its a bull$h!t list. They didnt even spell Riho correctly. They put Rhio. I mean cmon man. Doesn't matter. Early leaks of E79 had Io Shirai spelled as Lo Shirai and the leaks were still real.

Edit: Also never mentioned but they super stole private party’s gimmick. “Super kick party” really? Wit the same pink and blue colors as private party. At least Jericho steals gimmicks like best friend hug with Sammy and makes it work. U can't be serious... I'm going to go create a thread in the AEW section for this discussion. There's a lot of intriguing thoughts that could be expanded upon, further, in that section.

Yeah, until I'm actually able to buy Series 1 I'm not gonna be too hyped for Series 2 and I'm sure as hell not gonna get pumped up for Series 3.
I was totally excited for this line when it was announced, too.

Yeah, let's keep the debates over the in-ring stuff to the AEW board. I feel like it's I'm cleaning up post arguing over a certain tag team in almost every thread on this board.

Jeremy did an interview for a podcast. Noted that he cannot release information without approval from AEW they want the talent to promote the figures and announcements on their social media platforms. He also mentioned that the chase figures are supposed to be made as surprises at retail not for RSC. He basically confirmed Shida is not in series 3 anymore. Figures will be appearing in target in spring. Goal is to ensure series 3 ships on time. Doesn’t sound as if end of this year will be feasible for 3. Q2 2021 things will be moving like clockwork.

Will believe all of this when it is seen rather than heard. Also if the chases were supposed to be for retail you messed that one up right out of the starting gate. Also also making the chases for retail makes them even harder to get so they found a way to make it suck even more somehow. Just stop limiting them so much.

The way I see it, if they put guys who haven’t gotten figures yet in every single early series, then they will go through the roster really quick and won’t have anyone new to put in future series. By putting the Bucks in series three, they can spread the talent out and give future series a fair chance to be bought. It also gives people a chance to get the Bucks if they missed out on series one or didn’t want to Elvis attire.
I’m sure series 4 will be all new guys or maybe one repeat.
And another way I see it, I get to save money, because I already have series one Bucks, so now I don’t have to order a complete series. So I’m just getting PAC, Darby, and Cassidy. Riho I’m on the fence about, I need to see what the figure looks like first.

Since they’re redoing the original line still. My problem with redoing figures already is that this line is already looking gloomy regardless to what Jeremy is saying. The interest has died down and they can’t get out of their own way with production issues. Since they plan on fixing the skin tones in series 1 they better fix omega’s ankles.

The interest has died down and they can’t get out of their own way with production issues. Since they plan on fixing the skin tones in series 1 they better fix omega’s ankles. Repaints are a given. But there's also a law of diminishing returns. They've already made 2 Kennys, 2 Jerichos, 3 Codys, and now a second set of Bucks, all within the first 6-9 months of launch. I get repeating top characters, but look at guys like AJ Styles or Finn Balor and you can clearly see that there's a point where collector interest hits a wall. And if they really want to be dropping a new wave each month, repaints would only increase, not decrease from here out. I do think this line will be successful, because I think they will continue to draw in new collectors and casual buyers from the AEW fanbase. And, in theory, expansion into Target and Amazon should address some of the bigger issues around availability. But totally agreed on burning goodwill with the most hardcore collectors. There are just areas where it feels like a big swing and a miss, but Jeremy seems to take a "all positivity all the time" mentality that makes it really easy to dismiss anything non-positive comments.

I mean I’d like to see series 2 in hand before we get any tentative lineups. Is it so far fetched to maybe want what we ordered before being bated into preordering another lineup?

Yes I’m sure interests has died down, but there is still some interested in the series and the line. As long as there is still a market for the figures they are still going to make them.

The line will still sell. Most people here will keep buying the figures. But the kind of marketing buzz they had at launch is something most companies would kill for. They've lost that goodwill with a big chunk of their hardcore consumer base, and that's 100% on them.
