Recently I noticed that I have bought 4 or more out of the 6 in the past sets.
Any one else notice that Mattel has hit a home run in the past year with the figures they produced. Being a MOC collector I am very happy with my product so I never have problems with legs/arms falling off.
E23: 5/6 (no Cena) E24: 5/6 (no Dolph) BAFPPV: 4/4 E25: 4/6 (no Brodus/Sheamus) E26: 6/6 E WMXXX: 2/2 E27: 6/6 (no Kofi yet but will) E28: 1/6 (Bray only unless I'm blown away) E29: 6/6 E30: 6/6

I used to, but found I didn't care for guys like R Truth, or Sheamus etc. So now I only get guys I really want and guys that havemt been made before. This is an EXPENSIVE hobby! I don't see how collectors can get
every single Elite & basic series that comes out when there have been tons of versions of the same guy lol
I think collections look better when they don't have multiples of the same character anyway. Thats just me though.

Whole sets would cost nearly $300 in my money. Which is more than what i care to pay for in one shot.

Unless it's a exact attire or distinct moment in their career I don't collect everything. I only collect every figure of CM Punk.

Always buy full elite sets - pick and choose basics and battle packs.

Nope. I haven't purchased a complete set since the Legends line ended. I think the last set I purchased a full set of might have been e23. (not sure if I purchased the Cena) of I didn't purchase him the last complete set I purchased was e16.

I have bought full sets of the Battle Packs, Elites & Basics since Day. The only sets I don't buy full ones of are things like sig series or best of. I just buy the new figures in those. As dumb as it sounds...I do buy the duplicates in the Basic series, & the Battle Packs.

I don't know how you guys can do it with basics and BPs. I'm out of room being MOC that I rearrange ever series and make more room. Pretty soon I'll be a full blown hoarder.

back when i collected i would rarely buy new sets. every now and then though there would be a new set like ruthless aggression 1 that came with all kinds of new people that never had figures before and i would end up buying a whole set.

I buy full sets of every elite series, and most battle packs. I buy about 3-5 of each basic series.

I usually don't buy the whole set. There's usually at least a crap figure in there like a repaint Cena, Rey or Orton.
I bought all of Elite Series 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 12, 14, 15, 18, 22, 26 and I will buy all of Elite 27.
I don't think I've ever bought all of a Basic Series, because I think like most people, I buy Basics as placeholders until Elites come out. So really, I'm only buying "First Time in the Line" basics at this point.
