Transformers and Star Wars really are about it for me, although in the past I also collected Spawn and McFarlane Sports.(Still do if one count exclusively buying only Minnesota Twins figures:p)

I also have a select bunch of wrestling figures collected over the years. I don't like the WWE figures that much, and have just bought the old WCW figures and newer TNA figures of my favorite wrestlers.

Oh, yeah PetShops and Pokemon too for my daughter......

In no particular order:

1. Transformers (who am I kidding, it is number one)
2. DC Universe Classics. Truely one of the best toylines that I have come across. However, the god aweful distribution is going to kill it.
3. G.I. Joe. I`m focusing mainly on Cobra myself, but the rest of the line looks pretty good.
4. Spider-man related stuff
5. TMNT. I only have the four turtles and still want to find Splinter to finish off my core set.
6. DC Direct Green Latern Line. Cannot wait for the Blackest Night series 1 and 2.

I need help.

For what they were, Rescue Hero's were kinda neat. I suppose that they eventually came in handy when my son was born, lol.

Oh yeah, forgot about those. Thankfully I wasn't into them (thankfully for my wallet that is), but my kid still has a Obi-wan that he still plays with.

1. G.I.Joe. I can't enough of these guys. No other toy beats the sense of satisfaction I get from bringing some new ones home.

2. Transformers. My traditional #1, for the past year or so they've been overtaken by the Joes. TFA toys just aren't my cup of tea, and TFU releases are so infrequent it's hard for them to build any momentum. As the movie approaches and ROTF toys start hitting the shelves, I'm sure Transformers will reclaim the top spot (Especially once my only choices are between movie TFs and movie Joes).

3. Star Wars. Mostly stuff for clone and droid armies, but not anything done in the animated clone wars style.

4. DCUC. I'd collect it if it was around at all.

Totally agree with you there on the Joes. Same with DCIH for me. Transformers were also my favorite in the past, but I'm just not digging anything since the movie line. Even the new movie, I'm not too fond of. Perhaps I am growing tired of TFs altogether. DCIH and Joes are number 1 + 2 respectively, for me.

#1) All that is Transformers, from G1 to today, its my joy and pride
#2) Star Wars, concentrate more on Jedis and siths figures
#3) All that is video game figures, Mario Bros, Sonic, Resident Evil, Mortal Kombat but my favorites are the Castlevania figures from Neca, so sweet :D

If I had more money (and more room) I would collect also Marvel Figs.
