I been collecting joes since day one!!!! Through and through Joe Fan only!!! I bought occasional toys, Halo 3, Microman, and some of the Marvel Legends that looked tight but I was and will never be a collector of stuff, just a player of stuff, and so far that has only reallly been with gijoes!

I wasn't collecting anything at that time and when I saw this line lots of memories invaded my head and I start buying like a crazy man. I have about 80 figures/vehicles which is a lot considering how expensive is to buy things from Argentina. Customs taxes kills you!!
Imagine paying about 45/60 dollars for each figure and 150/180 for each vehicle... my wallet is crying!!

I was, & still am collecting Heroclix & Heroscape miniatures. I'm spending alot less on Heroclix...buying the complete set's off E-Bay. I usually get my Heroscape stuff on sale - it also helps that there has only been one set for the first half of the year. I was collecting Marvel Legends, but sold them all after seeing the quality go down. I have always been a Joe fan, but would only buy occasionally if I saw something I liked. The quality was never what I thought it could be...until the 25th line. I've been Hasbro's whoar ever since.

Other than a few "fun" figures to keep on my desk at work, I hadn't bought a toy since I was a young teen.
Then, my girlfriend bought me 20th Anniversary Optimus Prime back in 2004 or so. Then I got some of the Alternators at K-Mart on clearance. She started it all, and hates it now. The moment I saw the 25th figures from SDCC (or wherever the "scoop" photography was from) I immediately knew I had to get them when they were released. It's one of those series that I am glad they keep making new figures, but I also sorta want to end at the same time, because it's lasted WAY longer than I thought it would, and turned WAY too awesome for me to validate buying 4" toys at $8/figure to just store in a box and not open. Since buying the 25th Joes, I've also started BACK-buying (loose, though... WAY too cool to leave in the box.) Marvel Legends. Mostly the main heroes, and the X-Men and their various villains. I just hope that I'm never mistakenly suspected of kidnapping a kid, because if anyone were to dig in my closets... They'd find BOXES of toys. I keep telling myself, I'm a designer. It's okay to have nerdy things. But it's excessive. *sigh* |

I was heavily into Macross toys made by Yamato and each average about $180 each.
Transformers MP line was another one of my favorites. They add up pretty quick! |
