My fiancee pushed me to Display my collection of figures in the living room this month, and for the first time my sisters and nephews came over today.
I got my nephews into Wrestling and have bought them dozens of figures over the years , gave them my bca collection 14 years ago, im 28 now. Anyways, Im a Carpenter and it would probaby surprise everyone i know if they seen my collection so today was a little nerve wracking.
Anyways the funny part of this is , My nephews 8 and 10 both love current wrestling, I just gave them a dibiase and undertaker today, then they look at my collection and the youngest says.... "oh , You have Randy Savage" ... im like wtf how do you know him... "oh they showed him on raw" he says.... then he asked "do you have The Road Warriors?"
lol.... Anyways, im really glad my collections out there now, ive been a closet collector for years. He Also asked why golddust had hair.... lol... I told him to watch some WWF from the 90's on youtube.
I was Surprised to See an 8 year old know who Randy Savage and The Road Warriors were tho.... anyways, just wanted to share my experience

Lol. It's you job to teach them of all the Legends. Nud it's a nice collection. I like the M$M custom. I need to get myself some Macho Man robes from Ralph's.

Great collection bro and a great story. Don't be ashamed! I'm 28 and engaged. My fiance would like if our bedroom wasn't basically a display room with a TV and bed lol but she deals. Were just starting out in a small condo, eventually I want a whole room dedicated to my collection.
Love the display case, ikea? You should go on amazon and order 3 tier spice racks. Works great for display. You could fit one in each shelf.
Your customs look amazing too bro.

i too only display legends, right now i am working on finishing my dream display.. i dislike simple shelves with the figs just standing there...
i prefer an old school WWF ring, maybe warrior shaking the ropes, jake reaching to get his snake bag, a mene gene interview on a black platform w/ million dollar man and a jakked jakks virgil!! and old school blue sky backround wm sean mooney interview w/ LOD, u get the point..
sumtimes i'll recreate when the right figs come out.. like dm warrior pinning dm savage with one leg ..or
sum1 PLEASE explain how i can put pics here
