I just have the one right now, but need 1-2 more. It's pretty space efficient but you can still see the Brawlers pretty well. It's also helpful because I have a few that don't stand on their own so they sort of lean against the display stand.

I use tacky craft putty for all my displays to keep figures from falling over. i get it also from amazon

I’m constantly having to push the figs back I only have a small collection (and considering selling it honestly), but found that a LEGO mini figure display case I got on etsy and some spare bricks I had around worked well. Is a little tight on one of the levels, but works for me.

So, while I was getting my Coronavirus vaccine, the Madison Rayne Micro Brawler came and went.
Hmmm.
I love you, Maddie.
Just not that much.
Maybe a second variant will go on sale on the same day next month.
Only 150? Of course.

What’s the Billy Gunn worth these days? Someone was trying to charge $200.

I lucked into being online for the Angle, and got the Impact ones since the time was announced, but have missed all the that weren't a pre-order window. Midday on a weekday I'm usually tied up doing something at work. I don't have the time to sit around watching facebook groups or PWT's site as it seems like some folks are.

I bought Dr. Britt as soon as the AEW line was up for sale, simply because I'm a huge fan of hers, and this will be her first of any type of figure (Yes, I will also pre-order her first Jazwares figure). I have no other desire to collect Micro Brawlers.

I have been dying to know this as well -- all this time on their hands, AND so much money to spend. It's a really weird combination -- sadly, I bet a lot of it is people buying stuff they can't really afford (esp. if unemployed due to Covid, etc)

Last few hours to order these to get the AEW Microbrawlers ordered so that they ship before they go on sale to the general public!...
Which begs the question, who is the general public? Who are we? Will the prices be different? Will there be a better shipping program? If I preorder today and let’s say it ships 3/1 will it go on sale for less and better shipping on 3/2? Are there limited quantities?
We continue to be sold the sizzle and not the steak.
We think one day will will buy the Honus Wagner of figs. But let me tell you something...it’s a rare condition this day and age to read any good news on the newspaper page and it’s also just as rare to get a fig that will be worth anything substantial. Collectors buy multiple of each and keep some MOC. There will always be inventory of whatever your looking for. The toy business has changed.
There’s a popular video on YouTube of some regular dude who got all dressed up put on some cool sunglasses and had his friends follow him around taking pictures like paparazzi. They made up that he was on a reality show. All these basics started taking pics of him asking to pose for selfies, the basics would be asked what they thought of the guy and his reality show and they would have glowing albeit generic responses!
Wrestling Figure collectors are those basics and when confronted with the truth they say “whatever I like taking selfie’s and reality shows”.
Join me in some self reflection!

Finally decided on just Darby and Brodie. Orange was the only other one I was on the fence about but I just couldn’t spend $60 on micro brawlers. Maybe my mind will change when they hit later. But I had some money in my paypal plus my monthly crate coupon.

Which begs the question, who is the general public? The people who didn't get the numerous emails, didn't see the numerous tweets and instagram posts or didn't watch Dynamite when the advertised it on national television multiple times.

To be completely fair, there are a ton of people who would never see the tweets or instagram posts as they dont use those platforms. Nor does everybody watch Dynamite.

The more I think of it maybe they just meant walk-in traffic at their flagship store. "General Public" should be reserved for anyone who isn't an employee or family of the companies involved...aka us!

They'll have exactly what they paid for - some fun 3 inch PVC figures. I've always been a big believe that you should collect assuming everything will be absolutely worthless. Which is to say put your money in 401k, IRAs, etc and save for the future. If you've got some fun money and want to speculate in collectibles, knock yourself out. But I've seen people burned way too many times thinking their collectibles were their retirement fund. Unfortunately I agree with you that from what I've seen, a lot of the Brawler crowd are probably going to end up on the wrong side of this.
