I didn't know about them coming out with a new line every four months, I wished there was more than 3 avenues to collect figures. I miss the small mom and pop shops, I always see john and punk as well. The 04-10 Jakks figure line was the most fun to collect everyone seemed to fukks with that line. You should check flea markets I always find good deals on both lines. I think jakks are in scale with Mattel. You should cop these dudley figures.

Sorry, not line every four months, a new wave, but yeah, those are the Dudley Boyz I saw on Ebay, and they are relatively inexpensive, I just dont want them to be too short or too tall. I know that the Deluxe Aggression line has it's figures bigger than it's Ruthless Aggression line. That's the shytty part of buying online, you cant see things with your own eyes. I much rather buy it in the store so I know what I'm getting. I would love to check out flea markets, but there are none near my area. I know they usually have hidden treasures there :yeshrug:. I think Jakks was good, but I think Mattel really stepped it up when they got the line. If nothing, they really gotten really good with the facial scans. I'm gonna have to do some research on those Damn Dudleys though, cuz they look boss

I started collecting in like 89 or so...I remember all I wanted for christmas one year was Demolition, they came with removable masks :laugh:

around 95/96 my parents had a yard sale, and I wasnt thinking about it at the time, thought I was just to old to have that stuff...I had about 65-70 (WCW/WWF) wrestling figures, 2 rings, a bunch of other stuff (like title belts, a cage you could add onto a ring, a ring bell, chairs, ladders etc) and sold the whole lot for 30 bucks....WTF was I thinking?

also sold MK3 for the SNES that day........lets just say it was a bad day all together.....

I feel your pain brother. I was blessed with alot of toys as a child, then when I was 13 I decided to throw them all out (save for two Gargoyles and a Wolverine). :snoop:. Had I known I'd be collecting toys one day, I would've kept them and saved myself some money

No, I wish. I live in northern Connecticut and we only have Kmart, Walmart and Target. The closest one would be half hour away and Im not really willing tto risk the gas if it's not a sure bet

so thank you Scotch Hall for showing me this thread. I myself just started collecting wrestling figures (I was collecting Mattel's DC figures and Marvel Legends before, but I got all the figures I wanted, so that collection is finished). I'm almost finished with my WWE Faces Collection (still need the to scale ring, The Rock, Hulk Hogan and Matt Hardy) but here's a pic

I started my Heels Collection too, but I don't have enough figures that'll make it worth while for a pic
yeah i need to grab that new classic Hogan

I had HBK figure like pic related. I dont know what the figures are like these days but the one I had was rubber and the joints would become loose from playing with them. Swag on a hundred thousand trillion.

I live in SE CT and we've got a place that sells old figures and video games. I should check it out sometime for some wrestling figures.

i want to cop some figures badly but of course i always feel like that when im broke. when i have the money to spend i dont think about that shyt. saw a CM Punk at the store(like yall said, always Punk & Cena on the peg) for $10 and was tempted...shoulda got it.

this will be like when i saw a Brian Pillman at the same store a year or two ago and didnt get it
