Re: What Do You Collect?

I voted for Marvel, Lego/Kreo, TMNT, Power Rangers, and Others.

Marvel - I am a Marvel fan, but I haven't bought anything Marvel for a loooong time. Still have a bunch of ML that I still haven't open, thinking about selling them. But I did pick up Japan imports of Marvel characters like Revoltech Iron man.

Lego/Kreo - I love the Lego Minifigs and TF Kreons blind packs!

TMNT - Bought the cartoon turtles and the classics from Playmates. Will most likely get any other classics figure they release.

Power Rangers - MMPR stuff + imports of certain characters.

Others - Mainly Japan imports (figma, figuarts, SIC revoltech, ultra-act, robot damashii, d-arts) and Transformers (mainly MP and 3rd party stuff now).

I found it odd, no one mention Gundam. I thought many people are into that stuff, at least at where I live.

I have Robot Damashii gundams, but only from the Gundam Wing series.

Re: What Do You Collect?

I only collect the odd DC figure (from any line. If it looks good and I want it, I'll get it). And a few foreign imports. I have noticeably reduced my collecting, and transferred my attention to comics.

I just don't get the pleasure out of toys the way I used to. I get much more satisfaction with comics. I have sold my entire loose GI Joe collection, most of my transformers and superheroes... I have only really kept my MP Transformers, Hot Toys, Macross and MOSC 25th anniversary Joes. Thinking of selling my 25th anniversary MOSC collection and SDCC Joe collection now.

Re: What Do You Collect?

I'm a fan of MANY iconic action heroes/villains, but I voted for Marvel, DC, McFarlane, and Other - because honestly I collect a wide variety of action figures, as long as the detail is great.

I used to be a big fan of McFarlane's stuff in it's earlier years during Metal Gear and cool Spawn Figures, but I'm finding every other toy company is either catching up or surpassing McFarlane's details. For example: The Walking Dead and Halo figures are really lacking in quality, it's as if they went for a cheaper mass production strategy. I felt like JoyRide did a much better job on the Halo figures, and all McFarlane had to do was pick up where they left off.

I love the nhl McFarlane's! I got hooked a few years ago after my friend showed me the section in Wal-Mart and I ended up buying a Jonathon Toews series 24! Gotta love the details on the things!

They are great. Between my dad and myself we have gotten a pretty large collection going over the years.

Re: What Do You Collect?

A little late to the party...
I collect ML, MS and the oddities of this line or that, if it catches my imagination I MUST HAVE IT!!! Lol.
I read Marvel and DC Comics in the 80's and 90's, but fell out of it until recently. I just love how the art comes from the pages and is transformed into a 6" figure, it's what I wanted when I was young and I've got the bug now. And really, I don't see this getting away from me for a long time.

Peace!
