That's me with video games. I just can't justify it much anymore. Part of it's to do with prices and the other is games aren't as long lasting as they use to be. I can warrant toys however. Mostly because I find a longer use for them. Displays are the thing most like. I like making photo comics myself (soon to be posted on the Technodrome).

Btw, have you got a SW figure in the last year or two? They've really impoved since the first Clone Wars toys (Though the new Clone Wars toys aren't as good as the Legacy).

EDIT: I like your Katamari avatar

The last thing I picked up was a Clone Wars movie Yoda, and a Clone Trooper, just because I felt like having something from the movie. And really, the animated Clone Wars toys are still my favourite series ever, the style is fantastic.

And thanks. I'm up to 6 compliments on it now!

I buy a little bit of everything, but the bulk of my toy collection is McFarlane Toys Spawn and Toy Biz/Hasbro Marvel Legends.

Anything I can find cheap or on clearance. But I really like those Hasbro "Heroes" 2 pack stylized figures. I wish they'd continue the Toy Story line, though. It really needed a Zurg.

The only line that I collect is G.I. Joe 25th Anniversary. Just figures, I'm not a completest, I try and get all the single carded figures, DVD Battle sets, and only Comic Packs that catch my eye.

Recent snags were the "Pyramid of Darkness" and "Arise Serprentor Arise" packs and four comic packs "Destro and Shockblast", "Tunnel Rat and StormShadow", "BeachHead and Dataframe", and "Wild Bill and Scrap Iron".

Main stuff is DC Direct and Jakks WWE Ruthless Aggression/Classic Superstars lines. I have a lot of TMNT, He-Man (classic and 2003), Hasbro WWF and Toy Biz WCW figures also.

I don't collect complete sets, so I focus on getting one good version of each character. Except with characters like Leonardo, Superman, or HulkHogan, where I try to get everything that gets made.

My fiancee has her own collections of G.I. Joe and Mattel DC Super-Heroes. I wanted the Mattel DC figs, but I already have almost 200 DC Directs and it's like, why stop now? I like Mattel's articulation way better, but I love the art-specific sculpts of DC Direct. Sigh.

I'll collect anything that catches my eye. I'm always looking for items from my favorite series and I'll randomly buy things from series I know nothing about.

My progress began young with TMNT (never really stopped) then went to comic book figures (x-men) then rolled over to Wrestling figures, those were the 3 big phases when I was younger. Recently it has been TMNT, MOTU 2002 stuff, MOTU classics (awesome), Hulk Hogan figures, and a lot of odds and ends that peak my interest.

Until last year I used to collect TMNT action figures and WWE/TNA Superstars, but since then I stopped collecting action figures.

I guess he doesn't qualify as African American to cubed because he doesn't say things like "yessa massa", "sup dawg", "yo", "kill whitey" and "shee-it negro!"

Pretty much my collection, though I don't pick up the comic packs or the DVD sets. I still need a slew more figs, but at least I've got more than half the releases. I'm basically only focusing on the singles, though I do have my eye on a few of the vehicles.
