Hello, WFIGS. July 16th was my birthday, but I just finished up my associates degree in English from Georgia Military college, thus I haven't posted much. I've loved Ringside and this forum since I discovered the site in 2005 and I'm delighted that I finally bought my first big figure haul. It's nowhere as large as some of the ones I've seen on here, but it makes me happy. http://instagram.com/p/BmH4KpHjePA Also, I decided to share my fantasy roster made up of figures that are shorter than they should be. I know that seems stupid or odd, but I've saved a considerable amount of space when displaying or storing said figures, in terms of scale. The easiest way to explain why I did this is that I wanted my Bryan Danielson, Ricky Steamboat, Tully Blanchard an Jack Gallagher to look either closer to their right size or book them as being large than they are irl.   |

Happy birthday bro! Thank you! I love that Tully is your world champ lol Tully is the star player of my one faction. It's Ted Dibiase, Bob Orton, and Bulldog Dave Bower(The Daniel Bryan Basic next to Bob) I call them Money, Power, & Excellence. It sounds like something annoying that they could yell at the interviewer, so I ran with it. |

Nice collection. I like it when people display their figures differently.

Congrats and Happy birthday dude! Diggin that vest on Jericho, it screams "ayatollah of rock and rolla" Thank you! My idea for the Jericho figure was to be my roster's version of Magnum T.A. I want my Bryan Danielson to break out and be a big face star, but the story isn't there yet, so he's in a team with Steamboat called "The American Dragons." Chris' finishing combination is catching his opponents in the Alabama Slam then holding on to their legs to lock in the Lion Tamer. In my fantasy territory, Chris is a full six foot and weighs a little more than normal. The vest does seem to just fit his aesthetic beautifully, but I was going for that ass kicking 80s babyface look of Mid-Atlantic. |

Nice collection. I like it when people display their figures differently. Thank you! I chose to use some "risers" for my superheavyweights and some of my biggest heavyweights. In the territory fiction I've been booking, I decided to bill Nikolai and Barry(Who I the Texas Skyscraper, Jack Omohundro) at 6'9 making them my tallest wrestlers. Rhyno is the opposite because he's heavier than a child's funeral, but he's only 6 even in my scale. He's my version of Jerry Blackwell, basically. |

Loving the sleeveless robe for Steven Regal. I've always wanted to do that to a few of the plastic robes/jackets I have but can't bring up the courage lol

I've always wanted to do that to a few of the plastic robes/jackets I have but can't bring up the courage lol I have actually gotten into trouble over my irreverence and disdain for plastic jackets and kneepads. The first I do when I get a new figure is test the joints and cut off the pads. I replace the pads with balloon rubber. In the scale I'm doing, I'm using Regal as my version of Baron Mikel Scicluna, since he looks like he's 6'7 compared to my "6 foot" wrestlers. The sleeveless robe just made the most sense since I love going through the pomp of ring entrances when tinkering with my figures. |

Thanks! He's actually an attempt to salvage a Finn Balor body. I book him as if Dean were one of the undercard babyfaces in Mid-Atlantic. Does the jig, hits the bionic elbow, makes firey comebacks, but always falls short to the upper card heels etc. |
