So tonight I was bored and went to the local mall to see if there were any good sales at FYE or if Electronics Boutique had any good pre-owned games for dirt cheap.

Neither did.

So instead of going home, I decide to go to Toys R Us... and they had the freaking AJ Styles action figure from the TNA line. I buy it.

Then of course buying one action figure wasn't enough, I ended up getting the Billy Kidman/Paul London two-pack.

::sigh::

On a side note, the AJ Styles figure is cooler than any WWE toy I've seen in ages.

Meh, no worse than me spending $23 back in 1999 on D'Lo Brown, Droz, and Steve Williams figures.

And $10 on Celebrity Deathmatch (PS2)

And $4.50 for Jaws the Revenge

If it's the same Steve Williams figure I'm thinking of, then it would've been money well spent. :lol:

I almost bought Celebrity Deathmatch once or twice. The game came out about four years too late to be popular.

I only know of 1 Dr. Death figure, but hopefully it's the same.

And Celebrity Deathmatch is... well, you know. Not that good. I'll sell it to you for some magic beans and a Kane match of my choice. :P

Sold, shall I make you a list of every Kane match I own? B)


::Goes through collection::

Zero!

Of course you own zero. Vince McMahon owns them all, because it's in his video library. :P

My brain also managed to trick me into buying Police Academy: Mission to Moscow. At least my heart is smart enough to have never watched it.

Haha, I noticed how low that movie is ranked on IMDB. It's right around where Jaws The Revenge is.

On a side note, the AJ Styles figure is really cool. It makes me want to get the other TNA figures (except maybe Jarrett :P ). And the Styles figure looks more like Billy Kidman than the Kidman figure does.

::pretends the Kidman figure is Chad Collyer::

I did that with my "One" Billy Gunn. I made hima default Shawn Stasiak.







...








Don't ask why I bought 2 Billy Gunn figures either.

Haha. Actually one of my friends has a Rock/Billy Gunn two pack that came out while they were feuding in 1999. The Billy Gunn figure is actually pretty cool and I make them fight whenever I go over.

I would never buy a Billy Gunn figure myself though. Actually, the only wrestling figures I have are:

Paul London
Billy Kidman
Test (I usually pretend he's Jerry Lynn due to it being shorter than the other figures)
The Rock (Plague gave him to me)
Triple H (Plague again)
Marc Mero (Plague)
Stone Cold (Plague)
Kurt Angle
Chris Jericho
Chris Benoit
Rob Van Dam (the one that came with the ECW dvd)
Undertaker (Ministry era)
Roddy Piper (WCW)
Lance Storm

And I almost bought Justin Credible and Tajiri at Ames while they were going out of business. I should've.

Ha! Loser!

(does a match with Tommy Dreamer and Michaelangelo)

I could very easily put together a very compelling wrestling show featuring my ninja turtle figures. I just need to find out where they are all packed up.

Give them to me!

I remember in 1st grade everyone would bring their Ninja Turtles to school. I remember gloating about my new Rahzar and Tokka, and someone brought in the Krang body that was like 2 feet tall. :(

I never had that giant Krang figure, but I had that little one of him in the chair with feet.

And I had Tokka but not Rahzar, is that allowed?

Good enough. I had the early Krang too, but he sucked, so I made him a manager. Then I'd use his chair as something for a crippled wrestler, then beat them up while they're in it.

:lol:

If you had a Shawn Michaels figure, you could have him pretending to be crippled until his miraculous recovery.

That would be impossible. I "Royal Rumble 94'ed" him. Which reminds me, I need to dig up that box to use him again.

:lol:

Geez, when you say you hate Shawn Michaels, you aren't fucking around.

I made the beating extra long too, without no selling and comebacks. I'm glad I kept that inflatable treasure chest I had from burger king. A perfect fit.

Burger King had some fucking awesome toys back in the day. I remember that infloatable treasure chest fondly.

I also did the same thing to Hulk Hogan back in 1996... before he was in the nWo. Yes, even the ultimate Hulkamaniac wanted the fucker to go away. :(

It was the right thing to do. Turning heel saved Hogan's career for a few years.

I don't think I ever buried any toys, but I once threw my copy of WrestleMania 2000 out the window because my CAW Rikishi wouldn't fucking job to me.

I tossed Thunder out the window like a frisbee and haven't seen it since. Fucking piece of crap.

"POWERBOMB!" POWERBOMB! POWERBOMB!

It's like the fuckers tried to mock JR by having Schiavone repeat the same move over and over on commentary.

That reminds me of the time i played WCW Mayhem at K-Mart and for some reason the game went into a loop of Goldberg standing at the curtain just posing over and over again for about 10 minutes.

Never played Thunder, I'm guessing that's a good thing.

Lucky bastard. You think Raw for X-Box was glitch-a-mania? You ain't seen nothing yet!

That's another one I haven't played. I haven't tried any of the Gamecube or X-Box wrestling games, though I wanted to try out the WrestleMania X8 game when it came out.

I just played Smackdown vs Raw for the first time a few weeks ago at Plague's dorm. It was more fun than I had envisioned.

WM X-8 is pretty bad, but it improves with WM XIX. They still couldn't make a halfway decent storyline, but being Kane and throwing Triple H and Undertaker into a bottomless pit is entertaining at times.

I liked the images from a recent game, where there are casket matches. That way you can have Triple H literally bury his opponents.

More action figure fun...

I broke off Michaels' left arm with Marty Jannetty way back when.

Uh oh, I hope that didn't cause Shawn to lose his smile.

I've always been good about keeping my figures in one piece. I think my list of broken toys can be narrowed down to:

April O'Neil: my asshole neighbor squeezed her legs together and she exploded.

Storm: see above, from this point on I didn't let him near any female figure.

Archangel 3: one of his legs just snapped off one day.

Archangel 1: His wings are missing.

I have this random Masters of the Universe toy of this guy with purple skin and a gun as an arm that has both legs missing too.

Can you make this LESS dirty sounding?

And I try not to break them... it just happens. Sometime my guys get stiff.... I mean they hit harder than usual.

I'm sorry, but I love torturing some figures. (drowns Shawn Michaels and Kevin Nash in the sink)

This is quite the interesting two man discussion. I wish I could chime in, but I no longer play with action figures...

I used to have the coolest toy wrestling matches back in the day, with storylines, titles, and the most off-the-wall spots of all time. Can you say double underhook Canadian Destroyer off the top of a cage through a table? Yeah, I made that Goldust's finisher because I didn't like the Shattered Dreams...

Yeah, it always amazed me when I'd go to friends' houses and all their action figures would be missing heads and limbs. It wouldn't be like one or two, it would be the majority of their collection!

And kids wondered why I never wanted other people touching my action figures.

:lol: True, true.

I wasn't really into wrestling when I was very little, so most of my classic action figure games were based on episodes of ninja turtles or X-Men comic books. The storylines were pretty extensive though.

I wouldn't say I play with toys now, more so I just like having them around. I have a bunch of the new series of turtles hanging on my wall with Daredevil and Punisher from the Marvel Legends line and a couple of Spawn toys.

When you play with them so much, it happens.

By the way, honestly, I don't bust them out except once a month when I'm really bored. Back in the day, I went through 7 years of storylines in 2 years. Since 1998, I'm barely up to Year 10.

That's pretty impressive still. I used to log X-Men as "issues of a comic book." Seriously, it was pretty nonstop for several years (it died out when I was going into middle school, thankfully).

I think I made it close to issue 500, but I had a few storylines that were really boring me and it ended up closing out.

500 "Issues"? HA! Loser!... (ignores I kept a log of every event I did, and posted them here)

Hmmm... my Shawn Michaels figure is still smiling.

That reminds me of the time I lit my Ultimate Warriors face on fire with one of those fancy grill lighters.

Hehe, yes, 500 issues over a stretch of several years.

The original X-Men team consisted of Cyclops, Archangel, Marvel Girl (actually Catwoman from Batman Returns was the stand-in), Ice Man, and Cho'd (the big green starjammer, because I didn't have a Beast figure). Then of course, Professor X was their leader, and their enemies consisted mostly of Ninja Turtle bad guys since I didn't have many X-villains at that point.

Damn, the things people confess on message boards.... I refuse to say that I bought a Stephanie McMahon doll based on the fact the panties weren't painted on!

Well, I was only about 9 or 10 while this was going on! B)

And you did, huh? I remember feeling awkward that my Angela figure from the Spawn series had a definite lack of panties. I believe they nicknamed that figure "Party Angela."

Pfft... Pervert.
