I decided to sell off some of my Star Wars figures a while back. I was looking for other lines to collect and decided on WWE Elite figures, specifically the "Monday Night Wars" era. This is what I've picked up so far. It's been a lot of fun collecting these figures and watching old matches on the network. I have been collecting since the first DM Ric Flair came out, so I still might be missing a few good figures.  Thanks for looking. Update 9/31/17
Over the past year, it's been a lot of fun stocking the boards. Out of all the figure communities I follow, this is the one I enjoy most. I've picked up a few new figures over the last year. It's pretty awesome how much love Mattel gives to the Flashback guys. I'm really looking forward to Angle, D'Lo and Shamrock. If you can think of any Monday Night Wars' guys that I'm missing, please let me know. Thanks for looking. Also, looking for some advice. Should I swap the head from the Ringside nWo Scott Hall and put it on the Elite 51, or should I just sell off the Ringside Hall and keep them as is? I only have the need for one figure in the collection. I would like to have the most accurate version of him, and he didn't really wrestle much in the pony tail, if I can recall correctly.     Here's what the whole collection is looking like these days.  Updated 6/8/16Finally added some lighting and a few new figures. It's crazy how much the lighting can really enhance the look of your collection. I've got shirts for Jericho and Piper on the way, so they will be fitting in a little better on the WCW side. I also threw in a picture to show where the WCW and WWF figures fit into my overall collection.

Amazing figures. I display my Road Dogg without the hat. I like the scan and I think it looks nice hatless. But I think you made the right move going with WWE elites.

If anyone knows some other figures that would be good additions to a Monday Night Wars display, please let me know. Thanks for looking. Very nice!! What are you using for the figures to stand on? That looks perfect! |

Pillman, Henning, Vince McMahon, Undertaker, BamBam, Booker T, Vader, Bulldog, Jim Ross, Lawler, Malenko, Nash, Y2J, Road Warriors and Piper would all look great alongside your collection...but they're gonna cost ya.
I traded in my Star Wars collection for Lord of the Rings quite a few years ago. Don't regret it. Welcome to your newest obsession!!

I cleared one of my WWE shelves for the Star Wars 6" line when I started collected those, what mistake that was. One of the worst managed toy lines I can remember.
I'd convert it back to WWE, but I know I will probably get sucked back in by The Force Awakens.

That looks perfect! Thanks a lot. I have been using these bad boys for displaying. They've even dropped a couple of dollars in price. They are nearly perfect for the Ikea Detolfs. I set the stands on clear plastic shot glasses, so that the front second row of figures isn't covered up. There's probably a better method for doing that, but I am cheap and unsmart. |

I am hoping to see a new Nash at some point, because I am definitely not paying for that. I'm glad they are releasing that Taker figure too. Hopefully we get a couple of Harlem Heat figures, so I don't have to get a King Booker. I will definitely be looking for those others. Thanks. |

I got into Star Wars briefly for about 6 months. I wanted to get a pretty decent collection of Jedi/Sith and clones/stormroopers so I could have big battles. I wasn't able to as a kid because I only ever had a couple of trooper figures. After spending like 300 bucks, I kind of fell out of it. The only decent series at the time was the Black series, and they obviously weren't going to do anything else, the remaining figures I wanted were only through the secondary market and too pricey for 4" figures, so I decided to stop. I don't really care much anymore.

I've managed to keep my star wars collection going in tandem with my Wwe stuff, but in recent months there has simply been more WWe to collect. |

Looks amazingly similar to mine as far as the cabinet and tiered stand.  |

I collect Star Wars (only the 6" Black line) and WWE both.
My work room looks like something that would happen if Vince McMahon and Emperor Palpatine got together and had lots... AND LOTS of babies!
