First off, here are a few of my newest pickups from the last few months. I finally got around to taking some pictures of them. Clear red Muta: Picked up another black and white Muta: My brother is going to repaint our loose black and white Muta to match this costume: Vader: Stan Hansen. I was planning on keeping this one in the box, but when it arrived, his left arm popped out of the socket ;D I got a chance to attend Wrestle Reunion this weekend and had the opportunity to meet The Great Muta!!! I never thought in a million years I'd have the chance to see him wrestle, let alone meet him. I was able to get these two figures signed by him: He laughed when I handed him this one: In that picture, you can see another Great Nita that I picked up recently. My brother is going to repaint our loose Nita to match this costume: I was also able to get Stan Hansen to sign this figure: Also, my brother and I were able to take a picture with Muta: Finally, here are some pictures I took from the show last night. For 47 years old, Muta still has it. He put on a hell of a match. Jushin Liger wrestled El Generico. Definitely match of the night. It's worth picking up the dvd for this match alone. Rob Van Dam also wrestled.

I have to go with the majority of replies & say how envious I am of this.
Muta, Stan Hansen & Blackjack Mulligan are the 3 wrestlers I would like to see before I get much older.
Congratulations. I hope you had a blast!

Hell man, A friend of mine told me about this even but in all honesty, I thought he was kidding. I read about the even earlier today and I am so pissed at myself! I missed the chance to meet some great legends...F*CK!!!!
Great shots man, looks like Muta was a a class act.

I also went to wrestlereunion what an awesome show, I went specifically for muta, never in my life would I have ever imagined I would see him live. Did u buy that vader at the wrestlereunion from the highspots table? The reason I ask is because I was gonna buy it but wen back to buy it and of course it was gone! Hahahaha I also had another question, I recently started to get into puro figures and have been relegTed to buying them from eBay and highspots, is there somewhere that you get yours from that you can suggest? Some of the ones you have are awesome and I have never seen them on either place. Thanks!

Some of the ones you have are awesome and I have never seen them on either place. Thanks! Yeah, I did pick up the Vader from the highspots table. I saw it when I first got there and wasn't sure if I'd get it. I checked back a few hours later and it was still there, so I picked it up. Sorry about that. I've gotten most of my figures from highspots and ebay. I picked up a few from kaikodo.net, but I haven't tried to order any from there since they redesigned their site last year. There is a seller on ebay named coloradorocket who I've bought a bunch of figures off of. He has a friend in Japan that can pick up figures that you request, and then Paypal him the money. His prices are very reasonable. I've considered using a bidding agent, but I got scared off after seeing how fast the fees add up. Maybe I was adding something up wrong... If you have patience, ebay is a great was to start building your collection. You might just have to wait a while for the figures you are looking for to pop up. For those of you guys who were also at Wrestlereunion, how cool was it to see Muta and Liger wrestle live? To say it was a dream come true is an understatement. PWG is an awesome indie promotion. It is because of them that in the past two years I've been able to see Takuya Sugi (El Blazer) wreslte, meet Hayabusa, see a Dragon Gate show, and see Muta and Liger wrestle.

I'm glad rocket was able to help you! What are you getting if you don't mind me asking?
Meeting Muta was a dream come true. If you told me a year ago that I'd see him wrestle in person and get to meet him, I would have said you were full of... To say my brother and I were in a state of shock and awe after taking the picture with him would be a ginormous understatement. He was a really cool guy.
When I was getting the autograph on the deluxe figure, Kai (who tagged with him the night before and was sitting at the table with him) recognized the figure as being from the match with the Great Nita. He told me he was there for that match.

I bought some stuff from coloradorocket a few years ago and he was great.
