I actually just got back into collecting about three years ago. It started with the Papo Knights, then spread to Schliech, then I walked into a comic shop and got hooked back on GI Joe...
I pretty much collect Papo Schleich Joe and I've recently gotten started on some Robotech and some Transformers... If you count books as "collecting" it goes back to probably the late 70s when I was too you to remember.

You have pics of your collection? We need to meet up sometime. I'm in the Plainfield/Camby area. I'll buy you lunch or a beer.

Which actually isn't a horrible idea. Just shouldn't have the obvious Skywalker-love-interest-parallel so soon IMHO. Oddly, I'm more upset about Pellaeon's death than Mara. I really liked the guy. I'm also STILL annoyed they killed Ackbar (9 years later). EDIT: also, rumor has it that George has to approve the killing of the Big 3 and has set it off-limits for the time being. Sue and Leland refuse to confirm or deny. |

I think that's part of why they brought her in. "Oops. killed off the most popular EU character ever...um...clone her!!"

It kinda sucks because you know how it's going to turn out due to Daala's corrupt government but still it's cool to see them going through the motions and HOW it's going to turn out.
