Not my era at all, but MVP looks good. The rest look a little cartoonish

Rereleases benefit collectors and only hurts scalpers Exactly. Personally as a collector I don’t care if everyone has the figures, because I collect the things that interest me bringing back memories. I don’t care what something will cost on the secondary market because I don’t believe in it and I’m never selling it. So if everyone has the same figures that are in my collection that’s fine by me. Really well put PJ.

That Gorilla is amazing! They fixed the face. I wonder if they fixed the height too?
Seriously great work by Bill over the last year

Yeah we had High Energy on the polls way back but they lost in the end. I feel like researching Koko now. I wonder what he did when he wasn't in WWF??

Edge started using the spear as part of E&C I believe. Didn't start using it as a finish until around 05/06. He started with the Flatliner, I think. Edge has used the following for finishers: Flatliner Spear Edgecution Impaler DDT His signature moves included the Edge-O-Matic (reverse sit-out facebuster) and the Edgeucator leg lock (sideways sharpshooter). Wasn't his original finisher the electric chair? My vote goes with Big Show Chokeslam / Showstopper W.M.D - Weapon of Mass Destruction Final Cut (Spinning headlock elbow drop) Hog Log (spinning headlock legdrop) Big Sleep Spear Colossal Clutch Stinkface Thrust Kick Big Boot Gorilla Press Dropkick Headbutt Sidewalk Slam Alley Oop F5 "Frying Pan" chop Did he have a punch finish move as well? Maybe it's listed there and I didn't know the name

Sorry I hurt your feelings. Here's my collection last time I laid them out about 2 years ago. You can critique mine. I don't get upset about things like that. Boo you don’t have Rosa Mendes 4/10 terrible collection 😬

Earthquake was undefeated as a sumo guy in Japan before he gave it up because he didn't like the lifestyle Hard to find burgers?

I think it would be a good gimmick for someone to have. Every week they have a different finisher, it fails to put the opponent away and the opponent wins the match. I'd watch that for a comedy bit. Maybe give it the gimmick to the following guys for each era: - late 80s: Red Rooster - early 90s: Tugboat - late 90s: Marc Mero - current: Mojo Rawley

Rude beats Warrior for the heavyweight championship at SummerSlam in the cage. What happens next?

I'm not a follower of modern wrestling, but did Edge always use the spear?

He would've excelled with his Franchise character during the Attitude Era. I had never heard of him and thought he might be a jobber when he got the IC belt.

I think most guys' moves become iconic. Not sure why anyone would change their finishing move.
1 finishing move Hogan: big boot and leg drop Savage: double ax handle and flying elbow drop Santana: flying forearm Martel: Boston crab Big Boss Man: boss man slam Stone cold: stunner Mr Perfect: perfect Plex DiBiase: million dollar dream Ric Flair: figure four
2 finishing moves Shawn Michaels: weird back suplex, super kick Bret Hart: back breaker and middle rope elbow drop, sharpshooter
It's like some guys need to add a new finisher when they are developing, they do.

Gorilla You do realize how much of a prick you sound like right? Coming into my thread about my collection in which I am very proud of, and you decide to list everything wrong with it. Guess what idiot. My collection. Not yours. I don’t care if I say it’s a 1982 display and I have Jeff Hardy and Triple H in the front and center. It’s my collection, not yours. Thank you and kindly piss off Sorry I hurt your feelings. Here's my collection last time I laid them out about 2 years ago. You can critique mine. I don't get upset about things like that.

Really love it, I wanna do one for my fave year now. Me too. My favorite year was 1994, watching Mankind team with Bruiser Brody to take down the Hardy Boyz and their manager, the Gobbedley Gooker

Akeem and the Powers of Pain as a team were not around in 1991. Savage also wasn't wearing that attire - he was Macho King. There's a lot more inaccuracies, but too many to note No, but they were around in 1990, unless he changed the title, they fit. Savage wasn't wearing that though

The good: Becky's scan is great
The bad: Buddy Murphy is so small, he should come with a bunch of accessories. The plastic to dollar ratio is off.
The ugly: Batista had a terrible scan. If I collected modern wrestlers, I would stick that head on Baron Corbin
