What do you guys consider to be a decent size collection in terms of the amount of figures? Im not talking about the super dedicated collectors that have 500+ figures all moc etc but more of the loose collectors. My figure count is continually rising and i belive im getting a decent collection of modern day figures especialy as i live in the UK and some are very hard to find.

One of everyone on the roster (including those recently released)? Cool I'm just missing Cody Rhodes and Goldust (waiting for the battlepack), Darren Young, Titus O'Niell, Dolph Ziggler, Jack Swagger, Heath Slater, Justin Gabrielle, R-Truth, RVD and Santino. Not really interested in the jobbers tho or the figures that have majorly outdated attires. Still Need tag belts if anybody is selling *hint* |

I'm close to 200 loose but I also enjoy looking at smaller collections that are displayed clean and neatly. Quality over quantity in that case.

30-50 figures only of the ones you like. I have like 28 elites and it doesn't bug me because I have all the ones I really wanted. (besides E7 Tyson Kidd :l )

Heath, RVD & Justin are in the CURRENT Basic series 39. Only one i'm interested in is RVD, havn't seen Gabrielle on TV in a long time and I don't like Heath Slater. Waiting for elite RVD to become reduced at my local Smyths store. They seem to be dropping most elites to either £11.99 or £4.99. Going to grab the new Santino, and then R-Truth when his new battle pack is released. |

It's down to your display, the amount of room you have, and what you feel comfortable with. I personally feel like there should be a good theme and flow to how it is displayed. I am not quite well enough off to have new shelves so I put out about 10 loose figures at a time on my bookcase and the other 400 or so are neatly stood straight up in boxes.

I've got 8 moc figures with 5 more on the way.
Loose wise I've probably got a solid 40 or so

It's not the size of the collection, it's how you display it.

Like mentioned, it's the quality over quantity. I think I have over 50 Mattel figures (intact) haha when it comes to a huge number in collection, that's jakks figs for me.

I don't have 400 figures but I always displayed my favorite MOC figures and stored the rest. Until the collection grew so much that display space became storage space. |

It's all about what you want. I have over 1200 older Starting Line-ups. At the time I thought it was pretty decent. Now I think it's a bit much and I will be selling some off, about half. That will give me more room for my Elites which I only have about 40 or so of. Space also has a lot to do with it. I have a lot more space than I use to have.
