How long have you been collecting?

[JCF]

So, How long have you been collecting? Back when i was younger, I started buying when i was about 7 or 8. Then i stopped around 2003 because i felt embarased to buy figures because i felt funny doing it in front of my parents. So, I stopped for a few years. Then one night i was in Walmart in 2006 and passed the figure aisle and started looking at the figures just for the fun of it. Then i found the AD 17 Cena & Angle set. I bought it, And from that night on i have been buying figures again. I then explained to my parents im going to start collecting figures again and i wont be playing with them or anything, And they said thats fine. So, I stopped for some time, Then got back into it. I've been re-collecting for a year and a half now, And have loved every moment of it. I wont stop collecting anytime soon.

[Lego Customs!]

About 12 years, I started when I was 5, with my Hasbro Jake Roberts and Ultimate Warrior with the green trunks

[Warheart]

i started collecting BCAs back in the day when i was like 7 or 8 and continued for quite a bit until like the 4th series of the TTLs. i stopped and started collecting this past year.
so it's kind of an on and off thing.

[Legends Collector]

9 years and still collecting, my first figure was a Hasbro Hulk Hogan with movable arms(The only thing that could move on that figure)

[albireo]

i started out just playing with my older brothers figs, then when i was about 10 (year 2000) i started collecting TTL's and eventually final count figs.Then i stopped until i was in TRU in about 2003 and i saw all of clasic series 1 but passed up the opertunity as i didnt like the fact tht they had changed the legs.About 6 months later i saw the main event exclusive shawn michaels advertised online so i got it and that marked my first ever RA figure.Then i won a competition in a local news paper and won AD11 cena/ funaki and a stunt action ring and I've ben going strong ever since.

so all in all about 7 years i have been collecting

I started to collect when I was about 8 or 9 (around TTL days). My parents got me The Rock/HHH/Stone Cold 3 pack. After that I collected them until about 2004/5. The last fig I got then was RA 14 Cena with the US spinner. At that point my parents were like "Haven't you grown out of those yet??" Even if I went to look in the fig aisle they would say that, so I stopped. Every few months I would look at RSC for fun, and I saw lots of cool stuff. Then I found WF and realized that I never should have stopped. For about a month I started to collect secretly, then I told my parents about a month ago, and now I'm going strong once again.

[tehlance13]

I got my first figs on i think June 20th 2004. I remember cause it was 2 days before the last day of 5th grade.

[DZ: WF Legacy]

10 years. My first 4 figures were SS3 Mankind, SS3 Shawn Michaels, SS2 Owen Hart, and SS3 Bret Hart. I'm gonna upload the vid of me opening the figures on YouTube sometime soon. I didn't even know who Owen was, and my reaction proved it.

First was Ripped & Ruthless Kane..almost 10 years ago.

[PJ]

Well I still have a couple of my Mego superheroes from the 70's...so pretty much all my life.

[Chicago]

Ever since 1990/91 when my parents first bought me wrestling figures.

I stopped collecting for a while towards the end of Hasbros, started collecting WCW and then returned to WWF in about 95/96. I collected all the way up until the end of TTL and stopped again until Halloween day 2004 when I started collecting RA/CS.

I slowed down a bit last year, but started up once again around July/August this past summer.

[Anaconda Vice]
