Wrestling Figures
 
Do you think they are a waste of money? :?:

I only have the WWE Legend Bret Hart one, I think they're good for decoration. £15 a time is a bit steep. Not as much a ripoff as most things though.

Back in the day, they were awesome. Now I've grown up, not so sure.

Mine are in my loft, so if I have the urge to get them out and mess about abit, I have alot of stuff to look through :(

I have all the new WWE Jakks figures.

They aren't all 15 bucks each. Only the legends ones.

I have been collecting figs since 1997, and I have them in my basement. I play with them probably once a week.

I have over 200 figures and 3 rings.

I'd start collecting them again, but the WWE toys look like crap. The Big Show does not have a six pack. The WCW toys were good because they actually looked like the wrestler.

Like the vibrating ones? :shifty:

I have some figures but people keep saying that they are a waste of money.

I started collecting at Christmas 2002 so I don’t have much figures but I have 2 rings a backstage area 2 titontrons (RAW IS WAR and SMACKDOWN!) and a bunch of bad condition figures which I hope to sell on Ebay.
:D

I have a crap load of figures and I will tell the truth. Even though Im 18 I was playing with all the figures and a wrestling ring having a hardcore match battle royal type thing. I still play with the figures all the time. I dont think they are a waste of money but I do wish they were cheaper. The fact that they cost around 7 bucks sucks because I remember buying most of my figures when they were only 1.50 at toys R Us.

I do have the whole Ring and Titan Tron thing. I even got some of those back stage things that there made for a while. And sadly I even tie a string around the fan in my room and hang belts from them for my wrestlers to fight for. Sure I know it might be kind of sad but its the truth and it shows that atleast to me Figures are not a waste.

I have the SmackDown! ring set (I used to have those huge rings... I still have one, the PPV one, I also had the Raw one) which came with a belt hanger... It sucks though because it's out of the ring... :-\

I have a few title belts and ladders and chairs, too :p Oh, and a table... (The tables, ladders, and chairs [Oh my!] came in an ECW set w/ a ring [I believe], them, and RVD and Sabu)

back in the day when they were made out of rubber, and were bigger they were awesome.

CSL 08-10-2004 02:47 PM

<font color=white>I've had a load since I was about 6 (1991). My Mom would buy me like 1 a week and I still have most of 'em. I've lost Mr. Perfect and Davey Boy Smith and that pissed me off. I don't still play with 'em etc but I'll still buy them if I see some for decent prices. My most recent 'acquisitions' were Batista, Scott Steiner and Tommy Dreamer (that was about February). I will pay top notch money for a Randy Orton figure when I come across one though :yes: </font>

The One 08-10-2004 05:11 PM

I have more wrestling figures then I know what to do with. I would guess several thousand dollars have been spent into them...and when I was younger (and spoiled) it was worth it to me becuase I have fun with them. Now that I don't get down on my hands and knees and battle them out I find them to be a nice little trip down memory lane to look at them. All but 6 are in boxes...and those 6 figures go on the wall of fame with my Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, my Star Wars, my X-Men, my Power Rangers, and other action figures that I treasure above all the others.

Disturbed316 08-10-2004 06:18 PM

I have the blue WWF ring, that came with the 8 sound effects. That thing ruled. I also have the WCW Nitro ring, with the enterance way and aireal walkway type thing, where you could hoist Sting down :cool:

Cool King 08-10-2004 06:37 PM

I forgot to put this in my last post but I also have a Trash Talkin Stage and an Elimination Chamber :D
