I'd go for an Utrom or Gen, they're the hardest to get so if you're planning on getting them all you might aswell get the rare ones first.

Usagi and Gen are great choices (if you can find Gen...)...and I personally like the Dark Assasin figure so I'd get that as well...utroms are getting a bit more common ( I say this only becasue I've been able to find a few lately in my search for army builders) but they are great figures as well...good luck and have fun hunting!

Stone Biter seems a bit hard to find. Might want to get him too.

I just bought Baxter and my next buy is planned to be Blanque, Dark Assasin, Butterfly Swords, Minetonka Mutant and Savanti, that means i'll only need:

Stone Biter
Razor Fist
Mozar
Utrom
Guardian
Claw Shredder
Usagi
Ultimate Ninja
Daimyo
Gen
Karai

any thoughts and advice is still appreciated and also does anyone know of anywhere in the Uk to get any of these items.

Karai would be a good choice. She is an important character and looks like a great figure. And there is a good chance you should still be able to find her on shelves.

As a general rule of thumb for you, I would suggest buying the figures that are shipping at the time first and then go back to find any that you missed. The price for these figures on the secondary market isn't likely to change much given the number of figures that are being produced. So it makes the most sense to buy the current figures at retail. Otherwise you will probably pay more than retail for the figures you missed earlier and then have to pay more on the secondary market again for the figures you pass up at retail while you looked for other figures.

I still like the idea of picking Utrom and/or Gen if you can find them just because they are a bit more difficult to find...im not saying to go out of your way or anything for them, but if you see them, pick them up, as you'll more than likely be able to more readily find the others at a later time...

Yeah... about the same here....

But I had to import a Stone Biter from the middle east (my parents are there so it isn't as weird as it sounds)... And he is the one I don't see pop up that much
