What are some WWE figures you have today that you wish you had growing up?
Mine is HBK block tights, because i never had a brand new Shawn untill RA where he had the black and red zebra strips tights.
I didn't get that untill2004 I think.
The one I had was beat to crap with the loose joints BCA's were known for.
I also wanted a Owen heart.

I never saw the run of hasbros that included Razor Ramon, HBK and Rick Martel all of which I have now so I'd say them.

Growing up in the 80's I loved wwf but I never had any wrestling action figures. I had just about every other action figure line but never had any desire for wrestling figures.
So now my sons only action figures of course are Mattel elite flashbacks.

All of them. I got out of collecting near the end of JAKKS, and came back because every now and then I would see how awesome Mattel was and wished I was still collecting. My mind was blown that I could now do powerbombs with my figures.

While I still don't own them today, it would be The Hart Foundation. They've been made available but I've yet to see them in retail. I guess it's Bret's painted torso that's prevented me from pulling the trigger for any online purchases. When I was a kid, though, I'd have begged my parents to get them for me if I ever saw them in a store.

All of Mattel. As a kid my only choice for wrestling figures were the LJN's(?). About 9in tall and made of hard rubber, they were more weapons then toys.

Daniel Bryan's head or Bret's torso. I prefer the body parts were cast in the appropriate flesh tone and painted accordingly. |

I hated the LJN line when I was a kid because there was zero articulation. I played with Remco AWA figures. I woulda loved having the golden era flashbacks in my collection then.

I was a kid in the mid to late 90s, so; E41 123 Kid, Bret Hart without glasses, Xpac without glasses, red/yellow Hulk Hogan, a decent 97 Taker, Elite Scale Ring and cage, and all the Warriors(since he was off limits for a long time).

My mother wouldn't even buy me a $5 batman figure. She would have a stroke in the middle of Wal Mart if I asked her to pull the trigger on a $20 figure. But if I had a time machine, I would send my whole collection to young doubleD.

I was one of the goobers who didn't collect the majority of the Legends. I skipped on several because they weren't the "iconic" looks for them. It is hard to look into the future and realize what you regret. Seven years later and our Flashback collection is strong, but in 2010 I didn't want to invest in something that looked hopeless, especially when they cancelled them. Even early on when there were just 1-2 flashbacks per set it seemed like we'd never cultivate much of a roster.

Agree with the mom having a stroke thing 100%
