At first it was a few single figures then I picked up the 5-packs. Before I knew it I was hunting like crazy! I had to have my pre-orders in early so I’m constantly checking Hisstank.com for any news. $4.88...$5.99…$6.84. BOOM, gotta grab the 3-packs…WHUUP, gotta grab four HISS tanks and two SHARC’s. SWEET, I finally have enough stickers to mail off for DOC! “Wave 7 just hit”… I need at least ten Cobra Vipers. WHAT, “Wave 8 hits Arizona!” I only need just a few from that wave. “Wave 4 CP’s hits Wal-Mart!” Okay, I only need one of each but I could do a Sarge custom and hmm, Bludd needs some Red Star boots, I can improve that FF/SS CP? “Wave 2 vehicles sighted in South Carolina!” OMG, four TB’s, two Armadillos plus one Vamp equals $105? “Wave 9 due out at the end of the month!” Okay, I swear all I need is eight BATs…ten BATs…no, no, no twelve is ALL I need, right? How many Conquest do I want…four? Firebats?
Is it just me or is your 25th Annie spending also growing exponentially? My collection is probably worth $1100 retail as of June 13, 2008, 4:07pm…LOL |

I'm afraid to let my wife see. I have at least one of everything 25th so far, but I am in the process of negotiating for 2 vintage collections, so, my 25th may get put on hold for a while.

Definitely a DAMN expensive hobby. I wish I didn't have the completionist gene in me.
Luckily I don't have the desire to buy one to open and one to play with All mine stay MOC. |

I'm definately at the 700 to 1000 range. Thats not including my ebay purchases on vintage playsets and vehicles. Not bad. I would by more but I don't think Hasbro could keep up with my demand. Still haven't seen Wave 7, besides Flint in disguise, or 8 in any store in Tampa.

discluding ARAH
I am super picky I have spent $125 not including customizing material or after market weapons. Sometimes I will watch an entire wave go by with out buying a thing... Pretty much if it isnt a figure I can make perfect I dont get it....
