I'm sure some people out there have ruined a figure or two before it became rare. If so, what would it be for you?

E25 Seth Rollins. I cut the vest off and now I have a vest cut in half and a shirtless Seth rollins. I'm probably gonna by another one because it's not the same to me having a glued together vest compared to the factory version. Also one of the early Dean Ambrose basics that I tried to headswap. It was my first swap with a Mattel figure and I snapped the neck peg.  |

My Toyfair signed 1/100 MOC Ultimate Warrior. The packaging has gotten all janked up over the years from neglect and multiple moves. It's still OC but far from MOC lol.

RSE Brock. He fell from my top shelf, left leg popped off. I super glued it back on and it looks ok.
But I know.

I've never ruined a figure so far.
I have thrown away a handful of perfectly good figs I didn't like anymore.

I didn't ruin any over my figures, even when I was a child I took care of them. They were all displayed until I wanted to play with them (mainly around the hasbro days) when it came to jakks through Mattel they are displayed.

I've never purposefully ruined a figure. I've had figures break but never on purpose.

Elite 20 CM Punk. Brought it for my son for Christmas the year it came out and let just say it had no chance in the hands of a two year old

Just one: my cat got hold of my DM Macho Man and shredded the tassels on the jacket so I had to cut them off. Other than the missing tassels, the figure is still near perfect so I can live with it.

I don't really mod my Mattel figs but back when I was a kid I colored some figs with sharpies like Flash Rey, Shannon Moore, Yokozuna and others. Or I took a lot of figs apart to that I shouldn't have

I tried to turn an extra B8 Finlay into Owen Hart, and I sorta gave up on it and would've rather just had 2 Finlay figures. Also, I had to buy an extra E6 Punk after I busted my first one's leg from a super(several feet in the air) atomic drop, I still have all the parts, I just never bothered to do the surgery. My E26 Warrior fell off the shelf and snapped his ankle, but that was gravity's fault, not mine.
There are also those times where you might accidentally drop a figure on a rug or tile and it takes a good bite out of the eyebrows, I hate when that happens.

when i 1st went into doing my own fixups and customs, a .99 cents HOF Slaughter ..i had no idea how to take apart a mattel figure so Slaughter was the bait. You may say at .99 cents no big deal..but after i got good at doing it i needed that Slaughter..so it was kinda a big deal.
