Ive been collecting SW since 1997 and just stopped with the end of the last movie. Though I will pick up anything that has to do with Republic Commandos.
Stars collecting is a bit worse than Joes because you get rehashes every wave no matter what. Its what turned me off to collecting them. I wish I could sell them off but cant convince myself to go through with it. I think the best thing with SW is to pick a part of the line to collect, like all the troopers or all the jedi etc. |

although i clicked "yes" a better vote would have been
"yes - figures" "yes - Vehicles" "yes - both" "no" i mostly collect figures (on and off since 95, wish i had my vintage stuff from the 80's) i sometimes get a vehicle here and there (i have a couple x-wings and tie-fighters, republic gunship, arc-170 and the falcon. thats IT.) i was just about to cut SW out of my collecting, because i am pretty much only into OT stuff and with the new clone wars stuff coming, i'm not as interested. sure, they are keeping OT fans happy with the Legacy line, but i will only get figures from that line if they come out with a better "deffinitive" version of the main characters. (i'm into buying any character that has a split second of screen time) so, i will buy this falcon for sure, and ocassionally keep my eyes open for better figures of characters i already have. i need to weed out my collection and see who i can part with... since i got twins on the way, i have decided to drop 90% of my SW and TF collecting. just get the occasional figure here and there so i can focus on joes.

i have like 30 clones. and i buy ones i think look cool to keep moc and hang on my wall. i have maybe 25 of those ive bought since the mid 90's. the mcquire's are really cool though, theyre my favorites by far.

a better question would be does a bear sh*t in the woods. although outdone by my passion for Joe I have a huge Star Wars collection (larger then Joe but theres more out there). I tried picking a theme (namely clones and empire) but that failed. I'm not a completest but damn I have alot.

I used to collect back in 95 when that line came out. Bought tons, but love the vehicles a lot more. I haven't bought anything in awhile though, SW related. I actually, about 3 years ago, got into the prop replicas. I have about 7 lightsabers to date.

Its amazing how alot of us have similar collecting habits.
I used to get ANYTHING SW as a kid, but then I started narrowing it down to clone wars stuff, then just every version of the clone troopers, and now its just anything republic commando, thats my moc stuff. I bought vehicles when I was a kid because I would play with them. But now i dont see the point. Though I do have a Republic gunship to hold some ARC troopers! anyone have special or rare peices? I cant really think of one except for my 1970's yoda. |
