Ive bought almost all the divas made. I think Im missing the all white & all green set of the Bella twins and the last 2 Lanas. I dont mind paying extra for an Elite female as long as there's something that makes it elite. High deco, accessories....something. Dont slap a basic in an elite box and try to charge me double. Agree with that. I mean are double jointed knees really worth an extra 10$....

I buy whomever I have a place/direction for in my WPW fed. With a singles and tag division for women, I have quite a lot of spots to fill -- esp. in the tag ranks. I thought about introducing a mid-card title just due to the large amount of women I'm getting for it, but I'm managing just two divisions fine. I split my plot lines up by Season, and by Season 4 I'm doing a brand split with Nitro getting the singles title and RAW getting the tag. I have to improvise a lot with teams since WWE doesn't have many female alliances lol. Like, I stuck Ember Moon & Becky Lynch together, Naomi/Tamina/Nia Jax together freebird style, AJ Lee & Charlotte Flair (temporarily), and Bayley/Mickie James. Along with the Bella Twins, Natalya & Beth Phoenix, and some TNA Jakks figures like Angelina Love & Velvet Sky, it's not too shabby. Obviously I got some holes to fill up across 4 seasons and beyond, so I'm always looking forward to girls in NXT getting figures. Probably more so than the males lol.
I think it's because I'm trying to create something WWE actually doesn't have with the pieces available. It's fun creatively.
Yeah, I wish elite women had better articulation but then I'd be pissed off some older figs like AJ Lee or Trish won't be updated with better articulation lol. So I assume it's easier to keep it the way it is. Shortsighted on Mattel's part, but I guess they figured women weren't that important when they got the license. WWE just started booking them correctly about 3 yrs ago in NXT. I'm sure if they could start over from this point with women's wrestling in WWE, they'd put playability higher on the list.

I just buy whichever interests me. With Marvel Legends my collection is mostly female characters because I feel they're better designed and aesthetically look better than the male ones which look clunky imo. With wrestling figures it's the opposite- I've got mostly guys. I do have a weakness for Paige so I own all of her figures (including Pop and diecast metal figure) along with various randoms; Emma, Steph's second elite, Bliss's elite, the recent Miss Elizabeth, Dana Brooke. I'll pickup Eva's new NXT figure and maybe a Bayley if they don't give her another ridiculous headscan.

I'm actually legit shocked The Bella's haven't had elites yet Popularity wise I feel the same way but they really dont warrant being Elites if you think about it. We got Brie's flannel in that Battle Pack and every Nikki has come with her hat.

I used to buy a lot/most female figures - but now I'm just sticking to the Legend ones (like Miss Elizabeth, Trish, Lita) and a couple of Steph. Would love more Legend-types though: Alundra Blayze, Luna Vachon, Sensational Sherri, Sunny, Sable, Chyna...

I don't buy many of the women's wrestlers to begin. I don't bother with the elite versions of them but might consider it if they came with an accessory worth 10$.
