1. Are there any wrestler that you disliked, which was the reason you didnt buy the figure?
Baron Corbin. He's the only NXT figure missing from my collection. I couldn't stand the guy from day 1.
2. A wrestler you disliked, but shocked how the figure turned out that you still added it to your collection?
There are a few on that list. While I didn't dislike them, I had zero interest in the Bludgeon Bros. But the figures were just so amazing that I had to add them.
3. A wrestler you loved so much that you had to add them, no matter what?
LOD and the Rockers fall into that category. They were my favorites as a kid, but I started collecting after the figures came out. At first I told myself I could live without them, but my collection felt hollow missing some of my absolute favorites. I paid more than I ever thought I would for an action figure to buy them, but I don't regret it for a second.

I don’t buy figures of wrestlers that I don’t like. And I only buy figures of wrestlers I like.  |

I would never own another Jimmy Snuka figure. Aside from his Hasbro, which is really only to have a complete set of hasbros due to the childhood attachment to that line.

I never wanted Usos or Jinder Mahal and likely never will for this reason.
2. A wrestler you disliked, but shocked how the figure turned out that you still added it to your collection?
Nia Jax figures look great and I have one of her first basics. Do not like her now though.
3. A wrestler you loved so much that you had to add them, no matter what?
Probably HBK. The only way I think I was gonna get his Ultimate figure because of the current shutdown in the UK was from RSC. It isn't cheap to import but getting him, and Elite Hurricane who I also love, is worth it.

1. Bella Twins and Lucha House Party.
2. With wrestling figures I’ve not experienced this but I have with my collection of Sideshow Collectible. I’m not a fan of Game of Thrones but the figure of Emilia Clarke’s character looked so good to me I had to have it in my collection.
3. Until they started the new basic line Becky Lynch was the one I got every figure of. I don’t like the new arms and lack of foot articulation.

Shawn Michaels! Never understood how he is over?! He was meant to be a piece of s*** backstage, which transferred into his character. All the wearing chaps and stripping stuff. What's that all about?! Plus when you see him interviewed now he seems so disingenuous You know one of my pet peeves about Shawn Michaels? It isn't specifically his faith/religion. I have no qualms with someone being a Christian. I am one myself. The problem is when I'm talking to someone, and I mention I'm a wrestling fan, and they say "Oh. I like Shawn Michaels. He's a good Christian." And then when I ask them if they like anyone besides HBK, they say "No, I don't watch wrestling." Just stop. These people drive me nuts. The sheer amount I have gotten this response from people in my life within the last 2 years has soured my feeling on him tremendously. If Shawn Michaels is your "favorite wrestler" simply because he's Christian, then you don't like HBK, you like Jesus. Period.Also, that reminds me. I believe I've mentioned my peer specialist on here before. She adores the Bella twins and Daniel Bryan, but has never seen a single WWE match in her life. Why? Because she's a reality tv addict and has seen every episode of Total Divas and Total Bellas in existence. I cannot tell you how horrible it is trying to discuss my wrestling interests with her when her entire POV is formed around those two shows. If there was ever a reason for me putting off getting those recent Bella elites, it's that. I now hate the Bella twins on principle. Oof. That's awful. I feel your pain. My Wife watches Total Bellas, and Total Divas. It's just ever so slightly easier for me to stomach than the Kardashians or any of them god awful real housewife shows. At least you'll get a glimpse of Bret Hart or the like every now and again |

Not a fan of Nia Jax.
Her Elite 65 figure came out great so I picked it up. All my figs started breaking soon thereafter.

I get at least one of every release (or at least I’m slowly trying to).
I have every fig of The British Bulldog Davey Boy Smith and will get any release as he is my fave!

1) Baron Corbin
2) The Miz (I've bought so many of his figures for customs)
3) Chris Hero. I was willing to shell out major $, but thankfully I got one at my local Target

- I'm only buying figures of people I like, so there's a ton I'm passing on.
- I haven't bought it yet, but I've considered buying the elite Nia Jax. Not a fan of hers but I thought the figure came out great.
- It will be Ultimate HBK.

For my collection, if I need them I bought them, regardless of what I thought of them. 2. Not a Jinder fan, but his Network Spotlight figure is fantastic 3. Big Hero/Ohno guy so had to buy the elite |

I collect the golden era including mostly wrestlemania 1 through 6 or 7. So far mattel has only released guys I like from that era. Even red rooster and don the rock muraco I needed to have. There are very few who wrestled prominently in that era I wouldn't want. Maybe Johnny v, sd Jones, corporal Kirchner, rockin Robin, etc.
I dont like any of the mattel hogans so far and have not bought them. I'm hoping they get it right this time around. Not a fan of their big bossman figures but bought one. I still think they didn't capture the 88 or 89 heel bossman look.

1. Are there any wrestler that you disliked, which was the reason you didnt buy the figure? I don't collect beyond 2002 when WWF became WWE and WCW was no longer around.
2. A wrestler you disliked, but shocked how the figure turned out that you still added it to your collection? Some of the figures of current wrestlers have turned out amazing but I didn't pick any of them up. I almost did pick up the E60 Triple H because of how good it looked but I didn't. I wasn't going to pick up the Shark or Isaac Yankem figure but they looked so good I picked them up.
3. A wrestler you loved so much that you had to add them, no matter what? Savage, Warrior, surfer Sting, Bret Hart.

I will buy any wrestler from the golden years of wrestling.
I buy every Hulk Hogan (they haven't made many), Macho Man (I think I'm missing 2)
I have bought many Ultimate Warrior figures. I hated him. I still have nightmares about Wrestlemania 6.
