WWE action figures are poseable action
figures based on wrestlers and personalities of
WWE.[1][2] They are currently manufactured by
Mattel and have formerly been manufactured by
LJN,
Jakks Pacific and
Hasbro.[3]
Hasbro
Hasbro began producing the company's action figures in 1990.[4] The toys were manufactured from plastic and although not fully articulated, had various spring-loaded action features such as punches and clotheslines, although they were not unique to each figure.
Jakks Pacific
Production of WWF/E toys by
Jakks Pacific began in 1996, and ended in December 2009.[5] Jakks started with the "Superstars" line with mostly popular WWE personnel at that time.[citation needed]
Mattel
Mattel took over production of WWE action figures. The new line-up was introduced on January 1, 2010 on
wwe.com.[5] The line included the "Basic" line, similar to the Jakks Pacific "Ruthless Aggression" line. [citation needed]
