I have two questions for my fellow board members.
My first question is, do you seperate tag teams? What I mean is, when you see Hawk and Animal on the pegs, do you only buy one? Do you only buy Hawk and leave Animal behind? I ask because I recently saw Animal on the pegs by himself. It made me think, would I buy the 1 and hope I'll find the other eventually or would I just pass and hope to find them both together.
On to my second question.
Do you ever use your imagination to name your figures? I ask this because I remember as a kid I would get knock off figures at the dollar store, often times I would not know what the figure's name was so I would just give him a name based off of what I thought he looked like to me. Recently I was looking at my Bella twins (red attire) and I couldnt remember their name so I just thought I would call them the Nashettes. They look like Kevin Nash (outsider gear) cheer leaders to me. Or another example is the Jakks Bret Hart and the Gorilla Monsoon, they both have on the same gear, black pants with a blue stripe and black top. I look at them and think they could be a tag team, the blue stripe makes me think they are cops so I call them Enforcers.

on the tag team thing? I would have to buy them both at the same time......My love for Tag Teams(especially LOD)would NEVER allow me to buy Mike and leave Joe behind.

I don't get the joke...
I don't really separate tag teams
Yes, I do, I put spare figure parts together and make a CAW with its own name and stuff. I ales used a pound-land wrestler as Ryback before his figure came out lol.

It depends on the tag team. In the Hart Foundation I only care for Bret so I wouldn't buy Jim.

I think people leave figures behind because they're short on money. I recently found 2 of Hawk but no Animal which was pretty annoying to say the least.

Personally, I must complete the tag team, those who separate them , shame on you, they're meant to be together like peanut butter & jelly, or like wrestlers and spray tans Lmao  I did the knock off name thing, a friend gifted me this random wrestler that had long brown hair, with a bandana, red button up shirt and jeans. If anyone can identify this figure that'd be awesome. Anyways I named him Drake Lmao way before that rapper and he was partners with mankind and soon betrayed him to join DX as Xpacs tag partner. Oh the great memories haha |

If I find both members of a tag team, I'll go on and by both instead of buying one and hoping I see the other again.
However if I just found one member of the team, I would go on and buy that one, instead of passing and hoping to find both of them again.

Well, here's an couple of answers.
I do it sometimes, yeah. I put Goldust, Shelton Benjamin, and Beth Phoenix together, since they all wear gold, and I called them The Gold Label. I also did the same with Eddie Guerrero and Evan Bourne, since they're both in red, I called them Red Lightning.

Depending on the tag team, maybe. I spilt up the Rockers cause I wanted Marty and I didn't want another Shawn. I have more attachment to Animal from LOD, cause when I was a kid we got a face paint kit and I was Animal and my friend was Hawk, so I'd consider just getting him.
Admittedly I thought it was weird when I was at Target and saw the Elite Jey Uso by himself.
I imagine this happens more in the case of kids buying them and not being able to get two.

I only buy tag team members together. I did not buy Hawk and Animal until I found them both in the same store. (I had seen Animal by himself two time prior.) Now, this isn't necessarily the case if one of the members has had a significant solo career ... I mean, if I found a good deal on an Arn Anderson, I'd snatch him up in a minute!

I have before like the Legends Road Warriors. I picked up Animal and kept passing up Hawk as if it would be out forever lol. One reason I do this is mainly because of my funds.
Random names for figs? If I've come up with an idea for a custom character then yes.
