I'm just curious to see who out there on the tanks collect anything beside G.I.Joe and why? I, myself, collect G.I.Joe, Master of the Universe, Star Wars, Thundercats, Spawn, Go Bots, Transformers, M.A.S.K., Battle Beast, and Hot Wheels. I try to collect Battle Beast and Thundercats but wasn't able to have luck in the area. At first it was just G.I.Joe and I thought to myself why limit to just one toy line? There are thousands of toys out there so I just picked up from there because I loved them as a child and now as an adult, it brings back memories with what I had as a child. I would remember my grandmother buying me Thundercats, my dad buying me G.I.Joe and Transformers, my mom buying me Hot Wheels, G.I.Joe, Transformers, and Thundercats. My other grandparents would gotten me Go Bots. My aunt brought me Master of the Universe. My older sister and brother would steal me G.I.Joe, Transfoemrs, Thundercats, Hot Wheels. I work do yard works and collect soda bottles and beer cans so I can make money to buy myself some Battle Beast, M.A.S.K. And G.I.Joe. I mostly had a lot of Battle Beast because they were cheap for me to buy with my yard work money and G.I.Joe because I would work with my cousin in San Antonio with his carpenter's business all weekend just to get a figure or two or a vehicle or two(long hours, cheap child labor, hard work..hell I've shoulda gotten bunches of stuff). What about you guys?

I buy SW toys for my nephews but the only toyline I buy for myself is GI Joe. I had thought about buying some TMNT reissues but keep talking myself out of it because I just don't feel like wasting money.

Star Wars-Just the stuff I like (Leia, Vader, Storm/clone troopers, bounty hunters, and some jedi/sith).
DC Direct-Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman. Bowen-Just the Marvel stuff (only my favorite characters not the whole line). Marvel- Just the new 3 3/4 line and only my faves. Anime toys- Only Kosuke Fujishima related stuff. |

Star Wars since the early bird kit... because it is Star Wars
Micronauts/Microman because those were the first action figures that I ever got prior to Star Wars. Pretty much everything is interchangeable. Everything utilizes a 5mm peg/hole system. So the vehicle parts are all interchangeable. Many things are motorized. Kind of like Legos but on a larger scale. And Microman morphed into Transformers... which is another line that I collected and selectively collect now. Other than that, I'm selective. But that is enough. |

I collect the DC Direct stuff. Mainly anything in the line except Superman or GL figures. (I have to have my most hated and those two lines fit in well in that). I'll also get the mew DCUC figures if and when I find them and it's a figure I like.
I used to do more lines like MOTU, SW, Go-bots, Voltron, etc but gave up on those when those collection took a swim one year. |

I collect Joes now but have collected most all 80s toys in the past. Thundercats,SilverHawks,TigerSharks,SW, MASK. I am strictly 80s joes now and my son gets the 25th figures. He also collects Clone Troopers/Stormtroopers to many to count and they all look the same to me.
