A Year of Collecting

[MELO]

Hello All:

So yesterday marked a year since I joined the WFigs community and I wanted to share with you guys how far my collections has come in that year. I lurked a little here in the boards before finally registering and I'd like to think my interests peaked when I signed up. Granted, I didn't buy my first mattel for a couple days or weeks since signing up. My first figure being an Elite 9 Miz and once I had it in my hands, I was hooked. So here we go, enjoy!


I actually just got elite 12 Kane today in the mail, I managed to snag him for $15! Very happy to finally have him.












Here's a panorama with everything together.


There really is no specific order or chronology to my display but down the road I would like to have it more organized. I mostly have them set by flashbacks, midcard, main event, divas, tag teams, and executive/misc for the time being.

I'd also like to thank all the members who I have dealt with here on the boards, without whom I would have not attained some very nice figures for my collection. Thanks for the trades and thanks for looking now!

Awesome collection, friend. That's a lot to accumulate in a year!

[Yambag Jones]

Great collection & great setup! Where'd you get the shelves?

[MELO]

Thanks for the feedback guys, glad you are liking.

To answer a few questions I've seen, the shelf is from Ikea. It's the LACK Wall shelf unit, I originally had it displayed vertically in the corner of my room but the bottom shelves couldn't be seen as great as the higher ones. So I decided to mount it horizontally on the wall. It's a really great shelf, I might have to get another if my collection continues to grow.

Nice man that is a good bid for 1 year.

[MrPerfect25]

Awesome collection my man. I too love that shelf. That's sweet that the 3-tier displays fit in there perfectly. Where did you find E12 Kane so cheap?!

[JHTB®]

I really love your shelf! The set up is awesome!

I came across Kane by pure lucky really. I did win him in an auction, which I found 15 mins before it was ending. The price was around $13 when I found it and thought the price was for sure going to skyrocket within the final seconds. Regardless I figured since it is a rare figure I should watch it just in case. Within the last 30 seconds I put my bid in and was automatically outbid, so I went ahead and increased my bid by a dollar and sure enough I became the highest bidder and it was all mine. I wanna say the auction may have been overlooked because no one on the title or description was the word "elite" included. It was listed as wwe series 12 kane.
