Do you try to collect figures etc. that are in a certain grade range? If so which one?

Of course I like 85 and above, but turtles are very hard to get high grades, it seems like most turtles are 70-80 especailly in the 92 and up, and if the item is rare, the condition doesnt matter, its just the fact that you have it, but I like 85's, I chase all 85's in MOTU Figures too,

They didn't make turtles in 85?!?!?!

85 is a grade not a year.
100 would be perfectly mint condition. 85 is like a B for mint-ness...

And no the turtles graded from 70 to 90's, not the year, the grade, LOL, they grade in 5's, turtles are packed poorly in cases, usually have bubble damage, and turtle cards are always creased, from light vien creases to major ones, its very hard to find good high grade turles, right now an AFA 90 is the highest grades I have, Now in MOTU I do have one AFA95, still high grades are very difficult to locate,

I know what you mean first hand. I got my hands on a sealed case of 25th anniversary figures. The sealed case itself was perfect condition no damage whatsoever. The figures in side were far from perfect.

I do however have a case fresh Fan Club Flyer Soft Head Michaelangelo. The card is unpunched with not a crease, dent, ding, paint chip, or imperfection in sight. Ditto with the bubble. I have exteme OCD and can pick apart perfection and the only thing I can find on my figure is extremely minute bubble rub/scuffs. Bubble rub was present on all of the figures that were very first released. In the first few shipments the figures were not packed with tissue paper that separates the bubbles like in later shipments.

Even so the seller how has handled thousands of TMNT figures said that he has never seen a figure in such amazing condition and knows he will never see one again.

I would get that sucker graded but it came from a sealed case straight to my hands. I wouldnt want anyone else handling it. So it will forever remain in my zolo case ungraded.
