First off, learn proper grammar and how to spell.
Second, people are all different. If someone wants to buy 25 John Cenas, let them. Its not your money. I buy every single CS figure (expect carding variants) because I'm a CS completionist
Lastly, I don't think Cena's figure sales has anything to do with his title reign.

This guy does have a point, though. I think some people turn this healthy hobby into a bizarre obsession. However, there's nothing wrong with getting multiples of guys you like. I have about 5 RA RVD figures because I love his attire style. Same deal for old school HBK. Some collectors have favorites that they enjoy collecting almost exclusively. The point where it becomes unhealthy is when you find yourself buying sets you hate just to have them. yap, thats pretty mach what i was trying to say... and no one don't have to explain me nothing... just as no one have to say which figs were the best in 2007 yet, which is better DA9 or RA 28 Kenny, or if divas collections are the whole meaning of being a collector or just a crap... but it's the meaning of this forum, isn't it?  or at least the second top meaning of the forum, after making more people buy figs from RSC... and i am not used to post in forums with a "spell check" bottom, and as English is my third languge... did use it this time  |

Who told you "MOST OF" us buy entire series of everything? You were lied to or you made incorrect assumptions. Quite a few people buy all the CS figures because there aren't too many repaints to make it a waste of money (up til now at least) But if there's anyone here that buys every single figure from RA/AD/TT/OTR/WM/PPV etc then I'd like to shake their hand, pat them on the back and buy them a drink, I've never heard of anyone that buys every figure that is released but it would show true dedication/obsession. I would think that if anyone did buy every release then they would be a MOC collector because alot of figures are straight rereleases in different packaging. I don't think there's many people that would choose to buy the same exact figure twice and most people would probably buy one figure of each wrestler and then extra versions of attires that they like. Most people here DON'T buy every figure though, I'm sure of that.

I dont, I just buy one RA of each wrestler, unless they come out with something much much better than the figure i already own.

I buy people I don't like usually because they are cool looking figures (Umaga, Khali, Rey) but I only buy 1 of each wrestler and get rid of the old as soon as I upgrade. Divas I buy all of because their attires are usually drastic changes and I loves me some divas.
