Feels like the Pride/MMA ones were pretty popular for awhile back in the mid 00’s but the wrestling ones get overlooked and forgotten. I guess being older now & pricey as well as availability makes these forgotten gems. I think we should have a separate thread for 16d that are smaller but the same concept/sculpter. Anyone has a collection of the originals? Ive acquired a couple more recently and others have had for years. There are a few out there I’d still love to pick up if affordable.

I love this line! I had almost all of them, both Misawas, both Tiger Jeet Singhs, both Kobashis, etc., and most of the MMA ones that I never displayed. I kept a few but sold most of them over the years. IMO, they're probably of the nicest figures to display in a collection. They look great! I even had a lot of the Road Warriors variants. I also had a lot of the 16D figures but ended up getting rid of most of them last year. I think I stopped collecting around #18 or so. The releases were starting to get to frequent for my wallet.

EricGWow! You have/had an Impressive collection! Totally agreed with how great these are on display. I have some Pride mma ones on display separately but would love to add misawa. I have 4-5 16d. I think the Brody is my favorite since we never got him in the original line but I’m not going all in on that line. Picking and choosing for the right price. If you still got an Abdullah to part with lmk ha.
