My WWE Championship shelf. PIC INSIDE!

[jrjumpshot]

I decided to start this about a week ago. I'd like to get a figure of all 44 WWE Champions on this shelf. As stated in a post I made before, 4 of these wrestlers have never had a figure made by Mattel or Jakks, so someday I will have to have someone make me some customs of them. But for now, I am going to focus on getting a figure of the other 40. So far, I have 26 Mattel figures. Still missing figures of these champions.

Unmade:
-Buddy Rogers
-Pedro Morales
-Stan Stasiak
-Antonio Inoki

Jakks:
-Bruno Sammartino
-Ivan Koloff
-Billy Graham
-Bob Backlund
-Hulk Hogan
-Ric Flair
-Sid
-Kurt Angle
-JBL
-Rvd
-Jeff Hardy

Mattel:
-Mankind
-Vince McMahon
-Brock Lesnar*

When I get a little closer to getting all of the champions, I am planning on putting these figures in order from 1st champion to last champion. I'd also like to get a championship belt for all 44 figures, preferably with the matching belt to that era (exp: Lesnar would get the undisputed title and HHH would get the attitude era title). Let me know what you guys think of this.



Also, as I never collected the Jakks RA line, if anyone has some of those champions listed above and is looking to move them at a fair price or trade them, feel free to pm me and hopefully we can work something out.

Not sure why that pic showed up sideways....anyone know how to fix it?

LOVE IT!

in my old place i had a similar "SHELF OF CHAMPIONS" in which i had them all arranged in order of winning it (a la the insert that came with the DVD chronicling the history of the WWE title). some of the unmades i made customs of and i had all of them with belts - mostly WWE Champ belts but in the case of Rock & Mankind i gave them tag belts, Miz had a US belt, RVD the ECW belt... basically trying to sprinkle in all of the other titles as well - then i moved and they're all boxed up. bogus. glad someone else is doing this. my new goal would be to re-do it entirely in mattel. though i don't have the space for the shelf YET, i am planning ahead and getting the collection ready. nice job, though!

here is an earlier (PRE-Mattel) version of my shelf of champions - any WWE, WCW, NWA or ECW champion could be on there:


i hope i have more pics of the last version - similar to what you're trying to do at home. will check later (i'm at work)

Looks great! Very close to what I am doing. I hope you can get the space to set them up again!

I just took a photo like this the other day too:



Did an IC champ shot as well.



However after taking the pics I realized I manage to forget HBK from both shots

I would try to make it all mattel elites or all jakks don mix though thats just my opinion

I personally like basics better myself.

Also, I am planning on swithching out some figures with attires that are more "current" to there actualy title runs. For example, I'd like to get the entrance greats HBK or even the RRH HBK figure instead of the basic series 5 tag that I have in the picture since he never was the champion in that era. Same goes for the Bigshow, Undertaker, Jericho, and a few others as well.

I like this idea, I may try something similar on my shelf.

thats pretty awesome! what would be even awesomer is if you could have each figure with a championship belt, with the proper incarnation of the belt...now that will take some homework haha...git er done
