Foot Armies...

Any one else collect foot soldiers? I got a few around my shredder ( all vintage..OF COURSE!)

Seems to be a hot area of collecting in alot of different toy lines, didnt know if anyone else has done it/ likes it.

Im gonna post pics up in a week or so of my own.

Holy Sh(beep)! That an army Zachatello00 had!
I was thinking of doing that with the Triceraton but a thought has come to me that I'll be wasting money and where am I going to put them.
But I think to complete that foot army is to get Karai. (which is coming out soon) also, I was thinking of a bigger army but that crazy of me to think of.
(like a complete army which could take over the world)

eh, not really. TMNT is my main thing. I do collect figures from other lines, star wars, marvel, etc. but TMNT is the only one I"m concerned about having armies for. The only other thing that comes remotly close is my "army" of about 8 Jedi.

I'm not too interested in the new TMNT toy line though I buy all of it (and before anyone chimes in saying "and that's why playmates will continue making crap" just remember that the new TMNT cartoon's ratings were poor and the only reason it's still going is due to merch sales, I'm supporting the cartoon by buying all these crappy figures). Never the desire to army build any of the figures. I tend to only army build figures that I think look really cool and of course justify being army built (not about to build an army of casey jones or anything lol). Though I must admit that Zachatello and tmnterminator's collections look really nice.

Thanks!!! Yea, i also just all of the sudden started to army build...i've been collecting for a while now and i never really has the desire to...it really hit me with the triceratons...i was thinking, man that'd be cool to have a bunch of those all lined up...and before i knew it, i was picking them up left and right and also started picking up Foot and utroms...i've been having alot of fun with this line (depsite this and that)...

175 + tax which can be a bitch when added together and could have pushed the $200 mark. If you have a good job and don't waste money on stupid things like drugs, alocohol, or women (j/k girls) then you can afford tons of tmnt stuff, and even if you do waste money on the above you can still probably afford ninja turtles toys. Just make sure it doesn't get too out of hand tmnterminator, I don't want to see a please donate to my paypal fund as I'm poor now thread going on here j/k

I'll just PM you personally when my funds drop too far, so dont worry about some unnecessary thread...

But for real, I am pretty fortunate to have a good steady job (federal biologist with the department of agriculture) so i can afford to buy tmnt things pretty regulalry on eBay and in stores...again, i do it a little at a time so its not a big chunk out of my paycheck or anything... remeber too, that that $175 you math whizs came up with is only for my triceraton army...i also have 33 mini foot soliders, 17 regular sized foot soldiers, 11 utroms, 8 Foot Techs,5 Elite, 5 Foot Mutations, 5 Dark Assasins, 3 Gunners, 2 Mystics, 1 Foot Gunner...so total on the complete army is a tad bit more... but im only 23, so i know i have plenty of time to slowly accumulate the GREATEST TMNT COLLECTION EVER!!!! J/K ...come to think of it though, it would be nice...

I was thinking of doing the same thing, that would be AWESOME.

TMNTerminator you won't get a dime from me, unless you're going to return the favor and by that I mean if you ever do become poor I'll buy all your toys for a decent price of say... $20? j/k

Depending on what your old school collection is like I think we might be competing big time (with tmntgal probably numero uno, that crazy girl )
