    A fair few Limited Edition and Internet Exclusives. I have Classics, but they're not exactly hard to find. I've been meaning to photograph my collection of stuff for a while, but never got round to doing it properly.


    Am i sensing you are a collector of rasslin' figures? :)



    Does anyone else actually have any kind of wrestling collection? I remember an old rasslin magazine (World Of Wrestling? I think they were PowerSlam before they were called PowerSlam?) use to have a feature every month where people would show of their merchandise. I always found it very interesting to see what people have.

    Mines a signed plaque of Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero from WMXX hugging in the ring with the belts. I still get emotional when I look at it

    Also have a signed plaque of Bret Hart, Ric Flair, Boss Man,

    Have a Guitar signed by the Honky Tonk Man


    Did you get those signed in person?


    I believe WrestlingMania in dublin also have a signed Honky guitar, just curious as to whether you bought it from them? (they also have the above mentioned plaques i believe?)

    No, but I get a kick out of old school non WWE wrestlers or obscure gimmicks getting a figure. The attention to detail is unreal for the most part. Im still kicking myself I didnt pick up a Triple Pack of the Fabulous Freebirds I was in saws about two years ago.

    I will admit, a lot of figures look great, but when you start collecting them or take interest in them, you begin to notice a lot of detail that gets passed on ir is missing from figures. Albeit its not a lot of the time, but sometimes they don't have back designs and so forth :(

    There is a lot about this set up which KKV hasn't even gotten credit for yet.

    The fact that edge is in "street gear", Batista on the ramp, the way both ref and Punk are looking towards where the hard camera would be.
    I don't know if this was deliberate, but Devon Dudley's reaction of shock is possibly my favourite.
    :D

    Wow some of you have some great stuff..I'm quiet jealous :(...lol.

    I only have a couple of prized wrestling related items..my autographed photo of Gangrel that I got after meeting him after a show in 2003. And an postcard autographed by Booker T & Christian from when I met them in Canada in 2005. The reason it's a postcard is because I had absolutely no idea I was going to meet them that day so had nothing else for them to sign. Lol.

    It's definitely cool to own those things, but the memories I have of meeting those guys and my brief time talking to them, is far more valuable to me then any possession.

    I assume you bought these off ebay?

    If not, how big of a hole did it burn in your pocket?

    Before WWE put the kibosh on Foleys eBay store,I got a personalized signed Cactus Jack tshirt. That was pretty cool.

    How is it personalised? Unless Foley signed it in front of me it wouldnt feel personal.

    I don't really have a picture of the RAW set up though. I took a pic of Punk 'winning the belt' and you can see it in the background kinda:

    The pro wrestling illustrated PWI 500's were the best!

    Do they still do them?

    I never really got the PWI's. The WWE magazines were always a big thing for me because I'd never get to see the ppv's so getting to see pictures of them was the next best thing.
