Used to love jakks but Mattel is way better Last rant !!! Im only talking CS line !!! Maybe your younger or just want the newest thing ?or dont care about Legends line so I can understand that but trust me this stuff now isnt even close to the wrestling I grew up watching and I saw many matches in person too. I thought long and hard on this but even when I bought 4 mattels legends a few years ago by accident I didnt even know they were mattel I just saw great legends and I didnt even really know about jakks either as a company . I only opened 1 of the 4 I bought and it was UW and I returned Kamela , Rude and Mr Wonderful do to the creepy articulation and sold UW on feebay ( I really cant look at mattels it freaks me out ). I really like certain things especially many head sculpts (Martel the model )but I think Mattel really suffers visually with the Crunchers Thigh and Crotch flaw all for the sake increased mobility but then they look very alien to me (see Pic on the bottom) and Please be clear I only collect CS superstars golden era so Im good to go FOREVER. Now you have to also weight in the intangibles that many havent as Im a 1960s , 70s , 80s and a 90s fan but mainly 85-87 and I can safetly say nobody with EVER do as complete of a set like Jakks CS did EVER and with many wrestlers getting multiple figures , mainly because they would lose money $$$ and one last time Mattel or anyone will never do a in depth roster like announcers , a referee and Managers and they even stated years ago they wouldnt put out a RSR for their legends line ?. Its pretty amazing as I buy Jakks every day on feebay and I could once find Brutus Beefcakes deluxe and Greg Valentine for $7 and now a used Brutus is in the $20 and stain Hammer is $17 and the WM2 ring I bought for $160 is going for $300 do to all this Mattel guys trying to fill roster holes and most only look like bobble heads Steamboat looks good in the white and no abs ( why no ab articulation ) on the new ones coming out and I thought Hogan did too but a hunk of his hair looks like a bald mans comb over (left hand side ) So once again even if Mattel put out every wrestler ever I still wouldnt or couldnt buy them do to their visual design flaw (see below ) and thats the best feeling in the world for me and its called security in my purchase something most mattel collectors really dont seem to have from their obvious insecurities while trying to downgraded jakks to make their own purchase seem more valid ? not to mention the huge gaps in the mattel legends universe .

I'd go with 2, but not really a fan of either really. I just put my tables right near the apron old school style.

I thought you would have said more concrete but you know Im purposely limted with space and go for the far away tables like SNME but I would kill for even 2 more inches in circumference around my ring but what do you think of this June Im gonna put a crowd mostly kids figures behind the guardrails , announcers and along side the inside entrance rail but with signs on sticks 3 different types , cards being held , logos and some on sticks and most are the proper size so no cutting down , June let me now what you think before I blow another $150 .

I tried to post them but its linked weird so Ill do it Wed , I figured I can get 9 in around the ring in dead spots and add some depth and like I said its a boy and a girl and all other figures like security, ring girl ect look horrible and too tall so I figure I can mode most of the kids by painting different color hair , switch clothes and some hats and they will hold wrestler cards and signs too .

I like the one where the fan is up close and personal with the entering wrestlers.

I agree with June. Maybe put your announce team on the other side of the ring and add fans for to the entrance area. Looks good.

You should go with the mattel tribute ring, due to space limits
