......I have entered the collecting game. Not sure how it even started, but I've been a fan of Ringside Collectibles YouTube channel for a few years and the moment my eyes saw Sting's defining moments figure, it was something i needed to have. imgur.com/a/RiJTSPs: Can anyone tell me how to upload photos directly on the threads? Thanks.

Thanks, my man. Can't see myself getting that many tbh. 8-10 per year at best. Rookie question, but what's the difference between Elite figures and basics? I guess "defining moments" ones are closer to elites, right?

I guess "defining moments" ones are closer to elites, right? defining moments are elites, just in fancy packaging. Elites have ball jointed hips, ab crunch and double jointed knees. Basics have no ab crunch single jointed hips and the legs just go strait forward and back. Also welcome to collecting and the boards.

Welcome to your worst nightmare Lmao. This is perfect! 8-10 a year...that sounds a lot like me 2 years ago. "I'll just get this flashback Shawn Michael's and bret hart..." Now I live in a house made entirely of figures.

We all get sucked in, buddy. However in my case I haven't collected since the Jakks days and I've been catching myself up with the Mattel Legends/Flashback Elites. I'm about caught up to my liking so I can enjoy what is to come instead of selling my kidney for an E12 Kane and E16 Diesel.

Welcome, be ready to spend all your money on figures the second you see a new elite set. but trust me its awesome and you got an amazing figure to start out with, sting is probably one of the best mattel figures made.

Welcome to the forums, man. My advice is to be really picky with what you're buying, so you don't end up with so-so figures you're not that into that just take up space. Cherry picking is awesome. About posting photos - I find it easier to upload one pic at a time to imgur so you can copy the direct link.When you post your message, click the Polaroid looking button and paste the URL:If your photos too big, you can adjust the size by changing the percent from 100.[img style=" max-width:30%;" src="http://i.imgur.com/TVOw3PH.jpg" alt=" "] Hope that helped!

I said I was just going to buy just a few at first too and now I have hundreds and hundreds lol but great first pickup. Everybody here loves that Sting figure. Top 5 this year for sure.

My advice, return sting, delete this forum and don't look back. You're in a lot of trouble bro
