NGL I’m snagging Legends Beefcakes just for the belts.
Got two Stunning Steves for the belts.
I’ll spend $20 for a belt if I want it bad enough lol

I think a ton of people, myself included, bought the RSC FFH Bray just for the puppets.
I bought the Survivor Series Bayley just for the Smackdown Women's belt but, once I had her in hand, I loved her so much that I replaced the repainted Bayley I had on my shelf.
I've bought at least five Wrestlemania XV Shane figures and three Milk O Mania Steph figures just for their heads.
I bought a loose Wrestlemania Edge figure just for his elbow pads.
Usually I end up buying the accessories loose in these sort of cases but there are times when it's cheaper to buy the whole figure.

I have 3 of the same Shane McMahon elites. That should answer your question.

You know, all of you guys with the Shane Elites in your bins, some of us are always looking for custom fodder.
And by some of us I mean one of us.
Literally just me.
I'm the only Shane McMahon fan on this entire dang board feel free to chuck those bad boys at me.

Yeah for belts,or kneepads/elbowpads, or for parts for customs. Basics for headswaps.

If you count basics as accessories then yes. I buy one every blue moon to swap heads on figures that need a fix up. Basics are virtually statues and almost useless in my book. I’m still wondering how kids play with them when they almost have no articulation.

I want to buy E85 Becky, E82 Alexa, and Takeover Shayna just for their belts as well as E84 Rhea so I can place all the belts on her. I don’t really need the Becky, Alexa, and Shayna so I’m afraid I won’t be able to sell them or sell them at a good price for me to justify buying them all just to display one figure lol
anyone have the belts that they want to sell or trade? lol

I forgot about belts. I bought two Elite Rhinos just to have a matching tag belt. I recently bought two Alexas and Stunning Steves to have a pair of tag belts. I’ve bought a lot of figures just to have a belt or, even worse, just to have a duplicate of a belt I already had just in case. Did I need to buy the most recent Fiend figure? No. But he had the Bluniversal championship.

Been thinking on and off about getting the Wrestlemania Savage and Andre for those carts. Also had a fleeting thought of getting a Super 7 Will Ospreay for the IWGP Jr belt but most likely wont. And not really an accessory but wanted the recent Bam Bam Bigelow specifically to do a head swap. |

Like so many others, I've bought because of belts. I keep my figures, but there are definitely a few or several I wouldn't have bought if not for the belt they came with. I was going to buy Ghostbusters Undertaker to get the belt but ended up buying one loose on eBay. I put it on a kitbash nWo Sting that was also an eBay purchase (white long hair head with red shirt).
As far as other accessories, I haven't done it with WWE but I have with other lines. Masters of the Universe Classics started throwing in unrelated accessories with figures, so that got me a few times. Same with BAF parts for Marvel Legends, if that counts as accessories.

Over the Limit CM Punk I bought for the headscan and two of the RSC Exclusive Punks to swap one. That was years ago though, couldn't imagine doing that now. But I've bought Elites and Battle Packs for the accessories a few times, same for two packs where I've only wanted one of the figures and just sold the other to get some of the money back.

Recently, I was playing around with the Wolfpac Sting and put the DM coat on it, and was amazed with how much better it made the figure look... Yeh I added the DM coat and ditched the wolfpac shirt, to recreate the Toybiz WCW Smash N Slam Wolfpac Sting in Mattel form. Such great memories of Toybiz WCW figures. Really wish Mattel would do a Smash N Slam attire DDP, and with a serious headscan for once instead of the never ending smiling DDPs (which really do not represent his WCW persona properly!). To get back on topic, yeh I have bought loads of figures just for one accessory, including figures from totally different brands and manufacturers, to use the accessories for my wrestling figures. |
