A lots of times when a superstar has been released, I see several people list of that superstars fig for sale on ebay. The day that's Chris Masters got released, I saw 5 auctions it listed the next day for his figure only. So, as soon as someone is released, do you get rid of their figure or keep it?

Keep it, every figure I buy is because I want it and it, most of the time it will fit into my storylines and I only buy people I can use/like.
I also love collecting and to look and see I have everyone from series so and so is awesome to me and getting rid of one of them would annoy me because the second it's sold my collection would look incomplete and I would want to buy it again.

"Superstar"?? Did Vince McMahon threaten to take away all your figures if you said "wrestler"?

Current contract status means diddly to me, but out of the figures I have that are former WWE stars, E6 Shad is the only one I kinda want to toss out.
I'm an Elite guy, so I skipped out on a lot of the mid/lower card basics in favor of possible future Elites. That strategy didn't really pan out for Shelton, Carlito or Khali, but the basics I did buy of Mickie James, Hurricane & Mike Knox are still some of my favorite figures.

"Superstar"?? Did Vince McMahon threaten to take away all your figures if you said "wrestler"? And what? You think he used "Superstar" just to upset you? Anyway, I would really have to have liked that Superstar's time enough that I will keep the figure of theirs. For example, When Shad got released, I just sold both my elite JTG and Shad, cause IMO they weren't used to their full capacity and didn't care for them when they were face. So away their figs went. With Masters, I liked him for his entire WWE tenure that I am keeping his fig AND buying the SS Heritage fig.

I just keep everything I buy because it's my collection. Regardless if the guy was on for 5 minutes or 5 years, I will keep him.

no, i have a brain. i'am not & nor will i be a sheep....... just cause a certain superstar got canned does not mean i gotta sell his/her figure! imo majority who does that, just wanna make sure they get their money back on what they spent! honestly, if u sell anything its a crap shoot!

Their job status has nothing to do with me keeping figures of them. Sucks that I can't get an Elite Shelton Benjamin or Mike Knox, though.

nope i keep all mine. Sometimes, if they become unusable or hard too place in a spot for posing, then ill put them back in the box and hanf them up on my wall or on a shelfe.. MVP, Gallows, and SES Punk Exclusive are the only 3 i have up there now. May even re open MVP someday and use him in the collection down the road

Most of the wrestlers in my RA collection are not on the current roster. The only Mattel wrestler I have that got released is DH Smith and I plan on keeping his TT9 figure.

It doesn't affect my collection but it does affect my fed. I like my fed to be current.

I keep them in case they ever return, but I do take them off the shelves. I keep my collection as current as I can. The farther up the ladder you are in WWE the closer you are to the front of my shelves, while people with little to no push are usually in the back.
