Pics of you collection? If we see what your setup is then it would be easier to help you with. Do you use the bases? If so removing the bases will give you more space on the shelves. Are they displayed in levels or ar the on the same level?

If you can try to make more space if you have 2 dressers like I do in my bedroom. I am running out of room myself in my display. On the left is my SmackDown roster, the middle is my Divas in the RAW ring and the legends in front of the ring. To the right is my RAW roster which is way too big. So I suggest that you put the ones that are no longer with the WWE in a separate display such as another dresser if you have one. If not put them in boxes. Whatever works for you.

Understandable. Before Thanksgiving I had probably 12 of the classic jakks figures. Since that time I've gone a little crazy and purchased around 30 new mattels. Yikes.

Hmm. I'd buy a stand or something. My display consists of: One dresser display of the current roster. One end table or random basics. Two wall shelves of my favorite Elite's. One whole wall of MOC 1 of 1,000's. One wall of random MOC's. One 4 shelf glass cabinet with one Elite and three Basic shelves. I'm overloaded with 300 + figures and I still manage to keep finding ways to add-on shelves and things. Look around for some stuff

I am also running out of space. I put all the retired/future endeavored people on a different shelf away from everything else.

just buy one of those cheap small bookcases from walmart that you can put together at home. they are like 15 bucks or something like that and you can display the figures in the shelves.

Then I have 4 detolf glass cases from Ikea...... 1 has WWE Mattel Legends, EG and DM figures. 2 has my Elites series 1-12 plus McMahon. 3 and 4 has my MOTU Classics figures!!!!! I have over 1000 figures and I find these bookcases and glass cabinets useful and they make your collection nice and spacious!!!!

Personally, I don't like to display a lot of figures at once what with the dust collecting on them AND me getting bored of seeing the same guys over and over. What I do is display a few, keep a few in a bin that I can get to so I can swap out my displays. Then I have 2 other bins: one for figures that I like but am not keen on displaying anytime soon and 1 that has custom / fixup parts in it.
It is a great way to make things "fresh" all of the time. Every week or so I put a few guys out (Now it is Booker King, Boss Man, King Sheamus and Macho King -- which one does not belong?) and then swap out one or two.
Just a thought.

I'd say get rid of the bases and add some 3-tier spice racks to them. This way you can rise the figures in the back so they are seen eaier. Also if you are running out of space maybe pose them with more of a profile so you can fit more wresters on the shelf (like this)  |

I have begun severely running out of room so I decided to get a couple big bins and just store a bunch away for now. Your situation is eventually going to change, so it doesn't mean they're going away forever, but just for the time being. In the next year or two, my girlfriend and I will probably get a small place together and at that time 90% of my collection will be in storage. But, maybe 5 years from now we'll be able to get a house and at that point.... MAN CAVE COMMENCE-A-THON!!!

I'm in a similar position now. I've packed most of my figures away "temporarily" and the only ones I have out are all the DMs and EGs, Vickie, a Jakks Sherri, and a couple of Rumblers. But I just picked up Elite 13 and a few Basic 15 (Brodus, Kofi, Barrett) in the last couple of days and I haven't opened The Rockers yet and I need to figure out how I'm going to display everything... I don't really even have room for one figure of each person.
