I troop build for realism. Cobra is known to have legions of soldiers, why have a couple? I was inspired by a display I saw at Knotts Berry Farm when I was a 5 years old (1985) of a room with a Flagg & one of the most impressive Joe set ups I've ever seen. I have always wanted a Cobra army. I believe OCD has something to do with it. I like to think of myself as a completionist..... 1000+ cobra soldiers and counting........

I army build just for that reason: i need an army. I love war/battle films and like to have my own. Until family bill issues, i used to have an immense LOTR army, blue shirt, crimson guard, and bat army, but i needed to sell them. I still prefer an army, because you need numbers. and if your going to take over the world, you need an army!

it starts out with the casual interest that it would be cool to have multiple of the troops like you always wanted as a child, then evolves into a compulsion where you can't stand the thought of not buying a figure you know someone else certainly will buy and you start buying them just to keep others from having them.

I only go up to 4 of each troop builder + the officer. I just like how it looks to have a squad displayed instead of just one figure. I would buy more if I had the money and space.
