Recently bought Elite 50 Stephanie McMahon and while I had some initial buyers remorse as I do with any figure, it didn't go away. It's a nice figure don't get me wrong but I probably could have bought it cheaper down the line or online. Anyone else feel that way about a recent purchase?

I look back at a lot of figures and feel that way now. It would be nice to keep them all but space and money are key factors

Yes, I have tonnes of figures sat in a box that haven't been touched in about 2 years. I'm considering selling them to then buy new figures

To beat a dead horse I don't regret buying it but man I was unhappy with my rhyno when I got it the other day.
I'm not picky on parts or exact replicas if it's a cool fig so I got it not bothered by the arms too much. Open it up and the wrist is damn near falling off and the title belt is by far the cheapest most lightweight one I've had with any figure. Poor stuff.

Twice I had all the elite legends and old school figures that were released in Elites. And once I was done waiting for new pre-orders, I instantly sold off the entire set.
Then, my last collection included the hard to find releases, which for me means if I find elite 47 aj style in a store I buy it. Well after a month of looking at the new guys my wife told me to sell it.
Gets out of hand and now I got some money and space for only the ones I really want.

Hmmm. Not really. I can think on some I wish I waited for an elite but its always nice to have basics as extras.

No, I've never felt that way.

Hall & Nash nWo battle pack. Just boring. Still don't know why I bought it. Glasses don't fit on a rubbish Nash headsculpt.
Blue trunks Sid. Not a rubbish fig by any means but its just 'there'.

I just wish I didn't buy certain figures from scalpers only to find it cheaper afterwards, happens to the best of us...

Enzo and Cass. I'll see if I feel differently when they arrive, but I might just sell them on.

Only time I regret buying a figure is if I find it for cheaper right after buying it. Otherwise if I'm not feeling a figure, that sumbitch is not being purchased. Passed over plenty of stuff.

It's happened a few times but I always keep the receipt just in case the regret doesn't go away, that way I just return it. Or sometimes I give them to the Salvation Army so others less fortunate can enjoy.

I regret not waiting for certain figures. Some flashbacks can be found for super cheap but after I missed out on elite 16, I was always scared of it happening again

Buying a flashback at £17.99 and then it's reduced to £5.00 a few months later.

Never. I wouldn't purchase a figure unless I am 100 percent certain I want it.

Some flashbacks can be found for super cheap but after I missed out on elite 16, I was always scared of it happening again This is the same for me and I'm starting to realize it more and more. I used to blind pre-order any name that caught my eye and now I don't pre-order anything unless I see it first with all the re-releases lately. I mean I guess thanks Mattel for the re-releases as it's made me more cautious with my pre-orders and now I'm realizing I can usually save 5-10 bucks a figure if I just wait a few months. |

Every figure I buy, I regret until the next day for some teason. I'm always like "damn, I should've bought this instead" but to me, $20 isn't bad, plus it's my only hobby.

Pretty much most of my collection at this point. Why? I realized I was buying figures just because I was filling up a roster rather than because I liked the actual wrestlers. My collection now is focused on WCW guys and a few other guys I like collecting.
