Update: They have arrived! And what a day for them to arrive on! And they are awesome! I got the Series 2 MJF Chase from Ringside! They were kind enough to give me a free protector too! I couldn’t believe it! Thank you so much Ringside! The Jericho bubbly packaging is so cool. I might need to get another and keep unopened. Gonna go open em up now! Pics below. The collection (just waiting on Mox and Sammy to arrive) MJF Chase! Gonna keep this one MOC. Need to get it signed! Big box! Late to the party, but for the first time started watching AEW after the Punk news (from the beginning). Just finished up thru November 2019 and man this show has reignited my love for wrestling AND wrestling figures. It is awesome. I held off for as long as I could but I have cracked and ordered a bunch of figs! Also have Jon Moxley Series 5, Sammy Guevara, Santana, and Ortiz coming in as well.

Excellent choices for figures. I have the three Jericho’s and the Cody exclusive and I’m happy with them. I feel the same way about AEW and I never miss an episode.

What a haul! How long were you holding out that you were able to spend $531 on figures at once?

What a haul! How long were you holding out that you were able to spend $531 on figures at once? I kind of felll out of watching WWE these last few years which in turn led to me buying less and less. From like 2010-2016ish I was an elite completionist. From 2016-2018ish I was selective of what I bought, mostly FBs. From 2019 to present haven’t bought much of anything by my old standards, very few figures here and there, all FBs, but not the main roster guys, which I haven’t bought any. Hell I don’t even have a current Drew McIntyre, Roman Reigns, or Bobby Lashley yet. I think this thread is my first post in 9-10 months. So for my wrestling figure budget (I collect some other stuff as well), I haven’t bought a lot for five years, which saved me a lot of money. So decided to just dive in. Really love the AEW product, feels fresh for me, different in a good way. Have missed the excitement of getting wrestling figures and collecting a full line again, and the added plus they scale well enough with Mattel so I can mix and match on a shelf (or even a figure fed which I kind of want to start again but might be too old for lol). So just a combination of factors that led to me get such a haul. Really excited!

ow!! $500 -- I agree, I'd love to see the box this comes in.
And this post is so interesting. It's gonna be interesting to see how much CM Punk makes a difference long term. Especially with the changes to NXT, WWE is on the verge of becoming totally unwatchable

Especially with the changes to NXT, WWE is on the verge of becoming totally unwatchable The thing for me is that the show is so damn good where I’m at now (December 2019) without Punk, who is basically two years away, I would keep watching it still without Punk. I feel like with many disillusioned with wrestling, erghh, more so WWE, the star power of Punk will help bring a lot of eyes to AEW. That is the key, I got my foot in the door because of Punk, everyone else broke that door down for me. When it debuted I was pretty much out the door for wrestling. The downfall of TNA/Impact (and me thinking AEW would be the same thing) and WWE product at the time may have turned many away from even giving it a chance (like me). All they need is just one episode and I think people will be as hooked as I am. It really is fresh compared to what I felt like was a very very stale unwatchable WWE product. It is a shame because WWE has the wrestling talent to be every bit as good as AEW, they just lack damn near everything else. Looking back on WWE, I’m shocked I watched as long as I did when compared to AEW. Hell, a random AEW Dark episode is better than 95% of the Raw/SD of the last few years I watched.

Great googley moogley! That's a HAUL!
I think I count 20 figures here!?
Add me to the list of people who want to see how big this box ends up being!
Anyway, I also just started watching AEW about a week ago (Punk did it for me too) and I am amazed at how great the show is. It makes me genuinely happy to be a fan in a way that the WWE hasn't done in 20 years. It's just incredible and I almost wish I could do something similar to this. There's a bunch of figures I need to get caught up on as well.
Such a great haul here. Love to see it. Keep us updated!

Glad to see bubbly Jericho and scu. Gotta get the good quality championship belts now that the newer ones aren't the same.

Do you have comparison pics of the old vs. the new Championship Title Belts?? What are the differences?? I can try to remember to take some. The belts now are made much cheaper. No glossy finish and the straps are thinner and warped. It's insanely obvious even from a distance which belt came from bubbly Jericho and series two Mox and which ones came from later Jericho and Mox.
