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. Funny, I kept the Wolfpac shirt on for it to resemble the one from the Evolution of Sting 6 pack. I bought a second Sting for this. Now I have a red Sting in only his wrestling gear and a red Sting in Wolfpac shirt and his duster. It looks so much cooler. |

Back in the days I picked up 2 Yoko HOF figs just for the tag belts. I ended up keeping both Yokos.

I bought 3 Stunning Steve figures. 1 to keep MOC and the other 2 for the WCW tag team belts. I thought about buying 2 more, I changed my mind LOL.

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. Just bought a Bigelow very recently to swap out the heads....BUT, I'm not sure If I'm going to go through with it since it's such a cool looking figure. And I've been slowly accumulating a random one-off collection of wrestling figures I like but dont fit in with my main display. So he might go there instead.. |

I’ve bought a bunch of loose basic stone colds for the different color knee braces (black, white, gold, red). Still wish the ultimate would have come with some alternate knee brace colors.

Really the best era for this was the Jakks era. They did so much with crazy accessories.

I bought the Elite Goldberg that came with the Big Gold belt because Walmart still had them at $16 and it was cheaper that way just to get the belt. Unsurprisingly, I haven't been able to move that Goldberg to anyone.

Ken Kennedy in the DA series and Elite Shane McMahon in the gray/white shirt...both came with announcer tables, making them an incredible deal. I never understood why this strategy hasn't been adopted more for figures that are simply going to be bad sellers.
Sticking an entire announce desk as an accessory will shift a lot of figures that would otherwise shelf warm for months on end.

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
It bugs me that one of the accessories isn't shears.

Problem with Jakks, that annoyed me so much, was that almost every accessory was somehow 'battle damaged'. A locker had to have it's doors broken, a TV had to be smashed, steel trays had a face-imprint on them, etc. they did get some stuff right (shopping trolley, etc.) but even things like a stretcher had to have scuff and rip marks on it. Was very annoying (to me).

Oh, that's fair. Everything was very stylized. |

Me too. I thought it came with them for whatever reason but obviously they don’t. I just wish it wasn’t such a tough get for this version of the belts |

He wasn't the Barber yet during the era that the figure is depicting. |
