Since the first wrestling figure you got, what's the longest you've ever gone without getting any wrestling figures?
For me, I started collecting in the Hasbro days, then went on to get a few BCAs and TTLS. In late 2001, I bought the Insurrexion TTL 10-pack and the ring with JR and Hebner, and then stopped buying figures until early 2007 when I bought my first micros so a gap of about five and a half years. I did buy a few other toys during that time - a Simpsons Stephen Hawking, all but one of the Preacher comic book figures, etc - but no wrestlers.

The longest I have ever went without buying any wrestling figures would be the gap between the end of Hasbro to the beginning of Bend-ems. Which would be atleast 6 months to a year.

I started buying in 2001 but stopped in early 2004 I believe. I eventually got back into everything in March 2006 and have been buying since. I don't plan on stopping until Jakks' contract runs out. Hopefully Mattel puts out good stuff.

I often go between 4-7 months without buying any figs... and so when I do make a purchase it tends to be a large amount on a rare fig  God bless. |

I stopped collecting wrestling figures for like a year or two, then got back into it. Now I go about a week or so without getting any cause I usually get all the new stuff and wait for new stuff to ship, like I am now. lol. I have everything that's out and there's nothing new to buy so I'm waiting....

I'm pretty sure the longest I've gone is nearly three years (late 2001 to Halloween 2004).
Since then, I've went nearly a year without buying any new figures, but I've been buying a lot more lately as I attempt to update my collection.

Well, the last figure I bought was the new DA Shelton Benjamin figure and that was like 3 months ago.  I really need to start up again and get DA20. |

I went from July 2001 until February 2009. Big gap. I was a huge collector till summer of 2001, right before my senior year of high school. I got involved with a girl, and was preoccupied with throwing keg parties and playing football, and I abandonded figures. I really regret it, as I missed such great figs as the early RAs and DAs. I really wish I would have continued. But im back for good now.
