my plan is to get one of each wrestler and keep them MOC. However, I'm going to hold out for the one I like the most. For instance, I'm not getting Series 1 Kofi because his scan is currently inaccurate . Series 1 Batista is without his new tattoos, and so on. If I get a large enough collection to overtake my Jakks one after a while, I will open them up and replace my Jakks collection, but for now, Jakks stays on the shelf.

There is something liberating in the idea of walking away right now.

^^ Yup.
Another thing I need to mention is, when you're used to the same style of figures for 5 years, it's hard to get used to another one right away. As of right now it looks like I won't be going forth with the idea of buying the figures.

Here is my biggest gripe with the way this is going down. THE ING JERKS WHO BUY A WHOLE CASE AND PUT IT ON EBAY AND DON'T EVEN ING CARE ABOUT WHAT THEY ARE BUYING! THANKS TO ASS HOLES LIKE THAT I HAVE MADE SEVERAL CAR TRIPS AND FOUND NOTHING BUT LEFT OVER FACT TAGS! Come Jan.1st when I am waiting outside my toys r us if I even get the slightest hint that there is some scum bag who lives off ebay is near me I am going to ing rip the figure out of their hands and beat the poop out of them. Get a real ing job and stop screwing me out of the figures. I don't even care about the 1/1000 crap I just want a few from series one. I also wish Mattel was a little more firm about the Street date. Everytime I see someone posting that they found something new I just want to go out and look some more to find nothing. Well that felt good to get out of my system. We should look out for the ebay scum bags and put a stop to their laughable prices and scum bag way of life. Dang, are you coming with a sword like Shameus?

I've always been a little frustrated that WWF/WWE figures were always so far behind other lines in terms of quality. Mattel is, without a doubt, producing the best looking line of WWF figures to date. Honestly, after seeing Mattel's stuff, I can't help but feel a tiny bit ripped off for spending so much on Jakks' product. It wasn't the best (by a long shot), but it was the only option. Now the bar has finally been raised to where it should be.
Still, as far as wrestling merchandise goes, I'm more concerned right now with replica belts and finishing collections of WWF Hasbros, WCW Galoob, etc.
I'll be more apt to start spending on Mattel's figures if they do a "classics" line. I can't even imagine how well they would be able to pull off a figure with a ton of deco, like the Ultimate Warrior.
