Killing a character in the comics doesn't affect the toy line. Hasbro has released new Lady Jaye figures since her DD death.

I remember reading the letters pages in the Marvel comics when they started killing characters and some readers complaining that their figures were no good anymore since they were killed off. Never understood that.
