I’m in the process of moving house and currently have all of my figures boxed up.
When I move next week, I’ll have more space and I’m trying to plan a (hopefully) awesome set up - including the Nitro Mattel ring.
So.. I was wondering if anyone displays their figures in an arena style & if you guys have any pics/tips etc. I have a feeling some of you guys have amazing set ups lol. I wanna see!

I’ve done it a few times over the years but it depends what you want to achieve.
I like doing figure photography but having it set out like an arena makes pics on my stages really hard, so I tend to set my stages up facing out for pics.
If it’s just a display to be there at all times an arena does look cool.

I am working on a set-up that would allow me to to display a ring, announce team and entrance stage for WWE, WCW, ECW and AEW/TNA. I probably need a new WWE ring and I have to figure out something for ECW, but I have the Nitro ring and the AEW one that came with the referee.
I have an entrance stage for WWE, I got the pop-up AEW display and I made an elaborate ECW one with cardboard, small chains and barbed wire I made from twist tie wires (it fits fit the low budget grass roots feel of ECW). I want to build a wooden stage for WCW when I get some time.

Looking for help as well- I know of Extreme Sets, but I remember seeing a second site with printable versions. Appreciate any help!

There was an arena setup thread in the customs forum but a lot of the pics have since gone missing due to image hosting sites vanishing or deleting things over time. I think there are Facebook groups as well.
My toy room/office could fit an arena setup but I prefer to keep a more organized look. As a result, I mainly just have rings on display with a few entry way or playsets sprinkled throughout on shelves. But I love seeing what other people come up with so please people, post your setups!

I don't have a proper set up, yet. But I'm currently working on a huge, fully 3d printed Stage.

I don't have an arena display. I do have a Hot Wheels Ford Dealership and a Ferrari Dealership playset that I set up sometimes. It's kinda hard to take pics of the setups you need just the right angling

That Raw is War set up brings me right back to my childhood. Amazing. I still think if Mattel would have went with that stage first, it would have forsure got funded.

This is amazing. I really wish a certain company that seems to have the old Jakks molds used them to make the old Jakks announce tables. But they seem to have the same announce tables as RSC. How do those headsets fit on the figures? I’m thinking of getting a couple of RSC announce tables for the headsets.

I think a smaller version than the Raw is War stage they showed would be perfect. A lot of people wouldn’t have the room for a true-to-scale version. But then again it wouldn’t be “Ultimate”. But I still think there should be an “Elite” size that acts as a middle ground between true-to-scale Ultimate and a-bit-too-small basic/Main Event/Wrekkin’ scale. Doing a Nitro stage before Raw is War is crazy. There was a big contingent of people that only watched WCW and left wrestling behind when it folded and never came back. Most of the Attitude Era Raw is War fans kept watching. I started off watching WCW and started watching WWF shortly after. But even though I started as a WCW fan, I have almost 30 years of being a continuous WWE fan, so my allegiance to WWE is much stronger.

A scaled down version would have been perfect. I hope we can still get that someday. Yeah, it would have made more sense to start with the Raw is War stage too seeing as WCW has been defunct for over 20 years now and that stage they had planned was out of commission since before then too.
