It's a fine idea... why not display though? I've never understood collecting anything only to hide it away. I don't collect to "collect" as much as I collect to play with them ahah. This solution just acts as a functional hiding spot.

its a good way to travel or ship a huge lot too. I am worried the box may be too thin for shipping. You would need a lot of stuffing on the inside and tape on the outside. Also, I am not sure how the post office would feel about me shipping a box of miller lite hahah.

That's a good idea...but I don't know how well the cardboard will stand up over time. Agreed, however I offer a simple solution: more beer!!

I don't know if anyone has shown this before but this is how I have been storing my loose collection. Enjoy! Thanks!

But then we have a growing amount of looked over figures sitting on shelves, preventing us from getting new series in store. And they're for little Johnny to buy who is just gonna smash the granny out of em Tell that to the hundreds of E32 Mark Henry's I see ahahah

Also, where is brand loyalty in a company that is okay selling a broken/unfinished/damaged product?
Feedback is a very important part of how companies work. They have content down. We are constantly getting the content we want, however it is the quality of the content that is decreasing. Maybe feedback needs to leave the forums and enter the inbox of a QC team at Mattel.

Samoa Joe just arrived.. visible red and black scratches on the torso. I'm timid to even open it to find loose pieces, but if everyone is having the same issues, what's the point of exchanging?
Also, I'm disagreeing with the idea of "fixing" new figures. I bought it with the idea that was a finished product, as opposed to a product i needed to finish. I wouldn't buy a new car if it came with scratches and they axels needed to be replaced :/
(as a long time lurker, I am completely aware someone will find a way to disagree with me and insult me lol)

Just picked mine up but now that I am home I've realized the eyebrows are painted on wrong. He is supposed to look angry but instead he looks confused. I'll be exchanging him tomorrow.... sigh

2001 era Rock with track pants, Just Bring It Muscle Tee (which looks better in white in my opinion) would be awesome. I feel like He was a lot leaner, and slimmer. I'd honestly want a new head scan. But thats just me;)
A 2001 era Smackdown set would be awesome, where each figure came with a part of the classic Smackdown stage. Rock Angle Jeff Hardy Crash Holly Jericho Rikishi
not a perfect line up but

Cena is having some allergic reaction. Orton is smiling for some reason and his mouth is way too small. Brie forgot to put on the rest of her eyeliner. Booker T has those knock off Jeff Hardy eyes Hogan looks fine Flair looks like a custom lol. Jakks head on a ripped body.
I'll stick to Elites

My Daniel Bryan came in today. Box was fine.
Also, for anyone that is on the fence about the Daniel Bryan figure because of his discolored face in pics: This figure looks so much better in hand than in pics. I tried taking a few pics and his face looked awful, but in hand he looks incredible.
