My Collection!

Thanks for asking.    I am not the kind of collector that cares about mint on card - or chase figures unless I think those are the iconic look for me.  For example, I wanted the regular Greg Valentine in the black trucks ... if I saw the yellow one in the store there's a real good chance I would leave it there for a collector since my collection is on display and I got the Valentine I want. 

So here are the ones I want or have had troubles finding for Mattel prices.

1.  King Harley Race.  (I wanted him badly because I watched him as a kid and saw Flair beating him for the championship)
2.  The newest Ted Dibiase in Black.  The regular one ... not the chase.  Not into that look as much.
3.  The New Brutus Beefcake.  Not the chase just the regular one.  If I could get him on-line or in the store I wouldn't complain.  He is not available in the store so on-line is it.
4.  The New JYD in Red.  Not the chase in blue.
5.  The New Rowdy Piper.  
6.  The new Colonel Mustafa
7.  The New Chief Strombow when he becomes available.  
8.  I had trouble finding Kama but a fellow board member guided me to one that wasn't terribly over priced.  Thanks to that awesome board member.  Wish I could have just paid Mattel for that one instead of a resell.  


Then I probably would buy more out of habit if they were easier to get ... like Bam Bam, Macho, Scott Hall, - so there is a lot more money to be had for Mattel just because I would support them and may have different looks for some of them.  


I collect Marvel Legends too from the very beginning .... There was a Rogue figure made a few years back that was hard to find for a popular character ... there was a lot of buzz about making that figure more available ... they made several other Rogues with different looks and now they are re-releasing the classic Rogue that people wanted again in different packaging.  Love it!  More money for them and helps collectors.   If they re-released King Harley Race with different packaging or no packing I would equally love it.
