Even for a couple of years that would be an impressive collection but 6 months? Totally awesome. A lot of really nice customs in there as well. You should post them in the fix up thread so we can have a better look. I would but I've only done a couple customs, most we're purchased and I don't wanna take credit for other peoples work. But I can if you'd like! Idk who I bought them from, nearly all were eBay. The ones I did are: Shelton Benjamin - head swap and paint "He who shall not be named" - head swap Kurt Angle - head, boot and hand/arm swap RVD - head, boot, and hand/arm swap with paint Randy Orton - head swap I keep it very simple when doing a fix-up/custom because I suck at painting. So I have my girl paint them for me, but neither of us are good at design work which is why you see solid colors

I'm terrible at designs too which is why I try to stay away from painting in general with my fix ups.

Only issue I have is some of the parts I need/want without having to paint come on pricey figures. So if I can keep it a solid color, I can get something cheaper and go from there. We use Testors Acrylic paint, picked up a full paint set with like 10 colors for $20 at Michaels one day

Thank you for sharing your awesome collection! =-) Thanks so much! I gotta order some display stands, I have the shelves, just not 100% done with the setup. I also plan on elevating the HITC above the ring just like real life, using hooks and probably fishing line. Also gonna have another line/hook for a MITB setup. Lastly, probably make the walls behind the table solid black and do an audience thing (maybe). Tons of figures coming out that I want, so there will be a crap load more added in the near and distant future

Gonna add/finish the display, and the amount of figures will keep growing, especially this fall/winter! E23, E24, E25, and Best of PPV WM figures will be mine!

Given the time you've had to build this collection, I'd say it has to be one of the best. If you don't mind me asking, where do you get the money to pay for all of this? I'm only 18 without a job so my collection kinda reflects that. You must be a lawyer haha. But then again, the short period where I had a job, I was getting a crapload of figures.

My girlfriend and I both have decent paying jobs, and not to brag, but I can budget very well. I usually buy in "lots". By that I mean multiple figures from one or multiple people at a time. Plus, I've been doing great at the Casino lately haha I collect, as well as play, I'm usually sitting right next to my 2 1/2 year old son, showing him moves and stuff haha he's already started his own little collection of Basics, along with a ring and cage. I also toss down any basics I needed parts from to him fully put together but he doesn't know the difference of characters yet. He's gonna be big into wrasslin'!!!

And that's great. My dad and uncle got me into wrestling big time when I was still a baby. When it's with you forever, it means more to you I think

Any figures more than 7-8 months old I couldn't find so eBay, and purchasing on here helped a ton! And then rarely do I pre-order on ringside, but I do order in-stock items rather frequently. The 10% discount from Grims Toy Show helps a bit as well, at least covers tax, sometimes more! Love that guy btw haha
