Official TTL Appreciation Thread

I know it's really plain, but this was my absolute favorite TTL figure...

Great thread! I grew up with a fairly small TTL collection (Rock, Hogan, Rikishi, Undertaker, and SCSA) but in recent years I have expanded my collection with Road Dogg, Vince McMahon, and Chris Benoit. They are my second favorite figures behind Mattel. I love the Titantron Live figures the most. I played with that stage all the time when I was younger.

I picked up two of these for 20 bucks for both on eBay.

The Mankind and Taker figures are pretty good, but the Stone Cold is pretty bad.


    
When did he wear black jeans?




The sock comes blank. Had to use sharpie to give it detail.
The ladder, in my opinion, is better then some of the later Jakks ones. Pity none of the TTL's can climb it.

Oh hell yeah, ttl is still my favorite. I have tons, I will share a photo of my ttl collection when I get the chance. My first figure was the Mankind that came with the broken pipe. I'd carry that figure with me everywhere.

Also love switching the body parts around. I still plan on making xpacs wwe debut attire in 98 with the leather jacket ttl style. So I'm gathering these other ttl figures to make it.

I've always been a huge fan of the TTL Rikishi figures. I liked them all. And I believe it was Series 9 Triple H, he had the jeans on; I liked that figure a lot too.

I was and still am a hasbro boy, full collection, love em to bits. I remember when BCAs first came out and oh my, I hated the with a passion, it seemed like such a rubbish concept with horrible face scans easy recolouring... Nasty things.
My younger brother persisted and would often go to a certain toy shop every weekend with my dad to pick up a new figure or two.
As time went on, I was somewhat amused with his collection but really didn't care for the figures themselves, however, wrestling is wrestling and the intrigue is forever apparent.
I decided to go with him to the toy shop one day and this was when I first found the TTL line. They had apparently been on UK soil for several weeks and I was much more impressed. I mean yeah, it was early days so face scans were still off but they had something about them, they wanted to be collected.
Thinking back, my fav line was possibly rulers of the ring, and for whatever reason, series 4. I was mightily impressed with the Raven figure.

I could go on and on for a while about TTL, but ill finish with this. I have very recently just bought the following figures (too cool set and undertaker) that managed to elude me back in the day... Very happy indeed.

Edit - pics to be added soon

I loved TTL - they were my first figures! I only have a small shopping bag of TTL figs left now but managed to get some MOC figs off eBay a while ago

Its good to see these all go for cheap prices on the secondary market these days. CS and some RA/DA figures can still fetch some bucks. After so many people dumped jakks collections at the beginning of the mattel era, I thought most any jakks item would lose value. 4 years into it,however, collectors seem to be rediscovering jakks. I was afraid TTL might have been trending upward price wise. But after scouring the Bay,it looks like these and BCA figures remain pretty affordable. And that in and of itself is another reason to appreciate this often unappreciated line.
