I started a WWE Mattel collection for my nephew. He's got basic figures of pretty much everybody that's been released so far (except for the really new stuff). I basically buy doubles of figures I really like and add them to this box. Today I added George "The Animal" Steele (bought him for the red boots for Kurt Angle) and TLC Wade Barrett. There's some Legends and Flex Force in there too. My nephew is only 10 months. lol. So when he is a little bit older I think he will like these. (hopefully) Going to try hard to get him into wrestling. I buy all the Divas for my 7 year old niece too. She plays with them in her dollhouse. lol. Anybody else on here have kids around to buy figures for? It's kinda fun.

That's a pretty darn good collection. You're an awesome uncle. I buy things for a kid. That kid is me.

Great collection for your nephew Uncle Juice! lol. I'd buy some for my nephews but unfortunately they would probably break them right away. Good luck on adding more to the collection and Thanks for sharing!

I'm in a similar boat myself. Between my 3 sons (6,4,3) and my 2 daughters (6,2) I have managed to corrupt all of them with wrestling,GI Joe,and DC superheros. I'm quite proud. Therefore I have heavily contributed to their growing collections and my 6 and 4 year old sons have amassed quite the rosters. The others have a couple handfuls of wwe guys plus random joes ,batmans etc. But wrestling is their first love for sure. They ask to come stare at my hundreds of figures ,and name everyone (Legends included!) Hearing my 4 year old say "Rowdy Piper","Bawb Owton","Bushwaaackews" and VERY clearly say Ultimate Warrior,Demolition,or Legion of Doom is priceless. And they all love the Macho Man thanks to the magic of DVD. And for those doing the math,2 of the boys are "step sons". Otherwise I never would have had time to buy any figures the last 7 years! Lol.

Oddly enough I started buying the Mattel figures for my son because he got into wrestling just like me, he just turned 6 last week, and I started collecting them Jan 2010. But as the Legends starting coming out I started buying them and certain Elites for myself and him as well as Basics for him, I also do customs and someday when I'm not lazy, I'll post a few of my completed works on here, lol.... Also that is a cool classic Kurt Angle and I hope your nephew does get into wrestling with a collection like that, lol.! QUAGMIRE
