Hey all,
FINALLY got around to taking new pics of my Mattel collection after about 6 months. I've cleared out some of the doubles and stuff. I really only collect Elites and Divas, but I've bought basics of the guys who won't get Elites anytime soon*.
*Notable exceptions being Sandow & Tensai, but I just wanted them bad, haha. Without further adu:
Here are the Legends that I've kept. Mainly Attitude Era, but Macho is there, too. These guys are actually just in storage.
Here's more "Flashbacks" and Legends from the 2000s. This was really the height of my wrestling fandom. Only missing my favorites from this era, Lesnar and JBL. Luckily, I'll get the latter in just a couple months. Shelton is mostly Kofi, with his arms and head. The singlet is from a TTL Angle.
Here's the figures from the Walmart t-shirt series, some of my few basics. I really liked the concept of this set. Probably would have bought the other 3 if I ever found them.
Here's all my staff figures. GM Bret Hart in the back actually uses the DM Austin body. The "People Power" Big Johnny has a random basic body, I think Barrett maybe.
Here are the only guys who we should think matter in the WWE over the past few months AKA those who are "above Curtis Axel" apparently. The referee (BOPPV HBK, DH Smith head, random left arm) missed out on the staff pic so he's here, too.
Here's the World Heavyweight title picture. Swagger is parts of his Elite mixed with parts of the newest basic. They actually match fairly well in color. Without the fabric singlet, the arms look too big though.
Here's the rest of the mid-card. Curtis Axel is just an E13 Rhodes with his head and arms. Cesaro is an Austin with his lower legs, head, and E20 Rhodes arms.
Here's the tag teams. Epico & Primo both just used BOPPV Sin Cara bodies with their heads and arms. Primo doesn't have a neck for this reason. Jinder and the PTP are some of the few basics I have left.
Here are the new Oddities! Ryder is E17 with E9 boots and the Z!TLIS basic's head & arms.
Here are the injured reserve and John Morrison. Took off his frilly boots to fit his gimmick in my fed, and I was surprised he had the same short boots as Austin. Figured they were the medium boots.
Here's the NXT guys and more MIA guys. Riley is a DH Smith body with his head, boots, & arms. Hawkins is an early Elite Christian with his head/boots/arms.
DIVAS! Mickie is her head on a B8 Natalya body with Layla's lower legs. I liked this era of her a lot better and I have a different use for her body which you'll see later. Miss Tessmacher is just a Kelly Kelly repainted.
YES YES YES YES. Here's my Daniel Bryans. I had another basic with the BOPPV head but it's in my "for sale" pile now.
Here is my CM Punk collection. Behind the Hart tribute Punk is E1. All the added tats are painted. No decals for me. As mentioned earlier, Mickie's body was used for Serena. Her shirt is part of the Natalya shirt and some sculpting. Her head is actually from an old TTL Tori. I put the bearded Punk on the SES figure, because that was what he looked like when he had chest hair. He had started the tattoo pretty early into his masked run.
My last three doubles. I loved this era of Ryder, so I kept it. All my other elite Cenas are in the "for sale" pile, but I thought I'd keep the green. The old Elite Jericho is really just displaying that sweet jacket.
Last but certainly not least are my Chickbusters! I begged Mattel not to make the ring gear AJ in green after I made the fix-up, but of course, fate is a cruel mistress. I might customize her in something else soon. The grey Kaitlyn is the newest in my collection.
That's it, basically. As I said, I have some others that I'll probably be putting on eBay or the Classifieds soon. The only ones that weren't pictured were my Flashback Edge & Christian which are on display in my room and my custom of "me" which matches the green Kaitlyn. I've posted pictures of it before so maybe I can dig it up if anyone's that interested. Anyways, thanks for checking it out, dudes. It's kind of scary when you put all of them together like this and think about just how much you've spent on plastic toys haha.
