Great collection. Really clean and neat looking. Really pops. But I gotta ask; why do you strip them of all the accessories. Sometimes they make the fig imo. Agreed....there all nude?

I think he wants them to look how they do when they actually wrestle. He should add Christians shirt back on though as he always wrestled with that on.

Solid collection. Nicely displayed, I wish I had the room to put all my Legends on those stands. Maybe someday.
Question....how come you display them all in their wrestling gear and not with all the cool accessories?

I don't have accessories on my collection either. But my display space is way more compact then yours. I just simply don't have room for the accessories

There's a couple reasons I dont have the accessories on them. The main reason is Im absolutely terrified in losing something. Back when I was a kid I bought all of my Hasbro figures new MOC, 20 some odd years later I still have every one of those figures and most are in decent shape...however, the only accessory I still have is HTM guitar. I just feel more safe putting them in plastic bags and in a plastic tote and if for some reason an Emergency pops up and I need to sell my collection (which I was forced to do with my complete Jakks Classic Superstars 2 years ago) Ill have everything I need to get the most money. I do agree though that some of them would look great/better with them displayed. Of course like East Coast said, my room is limited too so someone like Bam Bam whos' already big, would take up even more room. Agreed....there all nude? I think he wants them to look how they do when they actually wrestle. He should add Christians shirt back on though as he always wrestled with that on. Its back on now. I actually took it off, as I do all cloth accessories, and washed it to avoid staining. Looks great! I really like your customs! I loled when I saw Teddy Long with all your tag teams! ;D Im glad someone noticed that! I do like how clean the setup is with those Mattel stands, but that wouldn't work for me as I only have 2 shelves to work with on my Legends. Here's a question for you though (Which I think I may have asked you in the past) whydon't you have their specific accessories on them? Like Hacksaw's 2X4, Sarge's hat/glasses/tag, etc? Also as far as the setup goes the only thing I'd swap is Elizabeth with the front row Warrior (L6) So she was standing next to Macho Yea I need to swap the Warriors & Savages. I didnt originally plan to put Liz there but since there's a "non wrestler" in the center on all the other shelves, I stuck her there. Nice collection buddy. Your pics are making me think about getting a few stands to display some of my favorites. Your collection looks nice and clean. I do think a nice Oakland Raiders helmet right in the middle will give it that "commitment to excellence" pop!

I'd love to get some of those stands however including the price of shipping they total the price of a figure, I'm just gonna make do with my stands I made with wood for now... You do have a pretty neat set up though! I'd put Yoko at the back though its really hard to see Snuka (?) behind him. Same with Dusty

Yoko is actually too tall to go on the back. I might have to squat him or something.
