I'm big on a lot of figures. Problem is, there is never anything interesting in stores. Walmart had Two star wars figures on the shelf. And it was the same figure. The heavy set chick. No marvel legends anymore. The same series one of DCU and the overly expensive new marvel universe series (which features the same figures that have been done to death in 6" form). Anyway, my list of things I collect.

Starwars 3 3/4 line
Marvel Legends
DC Direct
Justice League Unlimited
Street Fighter (when it's there)

My first reply since may. Impressive collection. I don't MOC my figures but you have a nice display. Do you have any OOP?

I'll get pics later, but I've stream lined my collection lately. Pretty much Gears of War, HALO, Terminator, anything Alien, and the occasional cool looking movie/robot/warrior/soldier fig I find.

What do I collect? Let's see...

-Spaceships of all kinds
-Robotech/Macross
-War Planets/Shadow Raiders
-Star Wars figures
-3 3/4 inch figures
-DC and some Marvel
-Various film, television, and anime - anything that strikes my fancy :D

And that doesn't even include all of the miniature games and RPGs (Dungeons & Dragons, HeroClix, PocketModels, etc.), etc.

You can see pics of my collection here (http://www.norsemeat.com/room.html) (My Toy Room (http://www.norsemeat.com/room.html)), although they're sadly outdated. I really should take some new ones...

Hi all,

Since I started collecting toys with Spawn action figures, most of my collection consists of them from the action figure genre. I'm slowly shifting my interest towards sixth scale figures.

I also collect video game magazines, few old coins, and lotsa Japanese comic books.:D

I collect debt.

I am stopping that. I have a plan and will be bill/debt free (except for the mortgage) by mid-2011. Then, I'll set aside emergency money (3 months pay) and will have an actual collection budget. :D For the time being, I collect nothing, cold turkey.

World of Warcraft

Currently, I'm collecting only Terminator stuff...and not all Terminator stuff, but chosen few pieces. I made a list, and plan to get everything from it trough some time!
Stuff I'm also interested in would be:
-Predator
-Alien
-Burton Stuff (Edward Scissorhands, Nightmare Before Christmas etc.)
-Lord of the Rings
-Few things from Star Wars
-Harry Potter (because of the girl, I don't like movies all that much, but books are great)
-Nightmare on Elm Street
-Nintendo

Unfortunately, I doubt I'll be collecting anything besides Terminator, because getting stuff here in Croatia is pricey.. :(

Pretty much anything that catches my attention these days. So much coming out, yet so little that's affordable or of interest.

What do you guys plan on collecting? I think Marvel and DC are killing it right now.

•ONEYE•
11-17-2009, 01:36 PM
When I can start collecting again, I plan to get the Terminator items I am missing out on during the next 18 months or so. There are some Aliens and Predator pieces I also want to acquire. Outside of those three, nothing. I am already in the process of scaling back my collection and selling those cool yet not cool enough to keep pieces. I don't want an overcrowded collection. Each piece must have airspace of their own.

Although, I do agree that Marvel is putting out some killer stuff. I'm not a big DC fan.

WOW!!! I haven't posted on here in some time.

Well I started out collecting Spawn stuff an Star Wars. I've since cut down on them both. Only getting the occasional Star Wars thing that catches me eye..or a realy good deal. Like the Spirit Of Obi-Won bust...got that bad boy for $15 not too long ago.

Any ways, I pretty much only collect DCUC, some DC Direct, MOTUC, Movie Maniacs Batman, and the new Ghostbusters line too! Thats about it for now. I have started to get into the statues an busts more..if I get a good deal.

Comics (DC, Marvel, Image, etc - tpbs mostly - I used to collect single issues but not anymore as space is becoming a real issue right now), Hot Toys, BJDs, Gundams and other scale models.

Ive branched out as of lately. I still have all my Gears of War stuff, but have been buying NECA Street Fighter, NECA God of War, and Movie maniacs. I love thoes, but theyre really old and kind of hard to find/expensive.

I cant wait for th God of War 3 figs and Assassins Creed 2 Ezios.

Also gotten into Wildstorm game comics; Gears of War, Modern Warfare 2, God of War

nashisthepower
08-15-2010, 06:18 PM
I really dig NECA stuff but are they even doing SF anymore. I'll settle with God of War figures, but they need more gods and monsters. There is only so much you can do with Kratos.

My favorite collections is starwars figures. As of now I have 145 starwars collectibles that I bought from different places.

For me, I have to keep it somewhat simple, as I once had a very bad addiction to collecting.

Now, all I collect are members of the Arashikage Ninja clan from G.I.Joe, and Sith Lords from Star Wars. I have allowed my Arashikage collection to also include people who are "honorary" members of the clan as well, but do not bare the hexagram, where as my Sith Lords I limit to one version of each.

When I come across a Sith or a Ninja Hasbro doesn't make, I customize it.

Well, Greg. It seems like you have a long life of collecting ahead of you. Transformers are pretty big right now. There are lots to find. Good luck finding figures and welcome.

Sadly I had to sell off a lot of my collection when I moved. That included everything from Marvel Legends, DCU, Star Wars, Sideshow, NECA and Sota.

I did keep my Godzilla and Gamera vinyls and still collect those.

Also collected:

Macross
Revoltech
Figma
Space Battleship Yamato
DC Universe (thought I was done but then I saw Zatanna and Alan Scott Green Lantern)
Marvel Legends
Star Wars (those retro package Tie Fighter and Snowspeeder exclusives not to mention that amazing AT-AT).

Hello all I am new here. I recently started to collect action figures and have found it to have quickly become an obsession :)

I have started collection Futurama action figures and more recently started with LOST figures as well.

Hi, I'm new here. Looks like a good place to intro myself.

I'm very new to the figures scene, and very new to what I'm collecting, which is the Microman line. I'm most interested in the Material Force figues - they're single colored with blank faces. They made them for customizers but then did away with the line for some reason! I don't customize yet but the blank figures really appeal to me. And although most Micromen come with a background I give my dolls and toys my own original characters. Most of my blank figures are shapeshifters.

I also have a Wolverine, Spiderman 2099, and Jack Sparrow.

These are all my Takara Micromen/Microlady figures and their friends. These are all in the 3.5" - 4" range.

http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5203/5368819304_871cda068a.jpg

These are my She-ra figures, Charmed girls from the tv series figures, Aang the Airbender, and my Microlady and Spiderman


I have my first Figma figure on the way from Hong Kong. She's a Sakura Hime. The Figma Archetype, which is all clear is hard to find online now, I'd really love to find an Archetype boy and an Archetype girl. But I got the Sakura to see how well they pose. She'll be a 6" figure like most shown in my bottom photo.

You are missing a charmed one. The power of two gets you nothing. There are links to stores on this site that will probably net you the other. Probably cheap too. Aang looks awkward around all those girls.

Personally I have always had a fondness for Transformers since I was a kid. I love any kind of robot toy actually, and have quite a bit from Robotech, to Voltron, and obscure Japanese stuff. I often do photoshoots of my stuff for my facebook and website.
