- Jakks Pacific Inc., told the San Mateo County Times that the company has pulled all Benoit toys from its WWE action figure line. "The company takes what happens very seriously; and we don't want to contribute any more to the situation. So we are no longer going to be distributing or making any more Chris Benoit action figures," said Genna Rosenberg, spokeswoman of Jakks Pacific Inc. "We have the power to not make them, and no longer send them out, and that's what we are planning to do." Jakks are the official action figure makers for World Wrestling Entertainment. The newspaper also said that toys retailer giant Toys 'R' Us removed all Chris Benoit toys from its shelves after details of what happened became public. Benoit merchandise is becoming very rare as retailers and online stores pull their items however eBay seems like the place to be to find all your Chris Benoit stuff as the auction site still lists DVDs, action figures and clothing bearing his name with some DVDs even topping the $130 mark.
