What's your main lines?

**GK Punk** · 01-28-2009, 11:50 PM

I've been collecting GI Joes since about 1997 when they did the 15th anniversary, Star Wars on and off since the powers of the force line, Transformers on and off for years, WWE. Other lines that are pretty much gone (At least in the sates) would Be He-Man2k2 and Winx club. love to hear what everyone else around here collects.

Archon_Turtle · 01-29-2009, 12:26 AM

I've got a pretty extensive collection of Rock Lords

*Spitfire* · 01-29-2009, 12:28 AM

It used to be mainly turtles. Once I got all the comics I started with the trades I have almost all of those now so it's hard to keep finding things.

As for toys I used to collect whatever turtles came out but it got too expensive. It also became less worth it since I wasn't digging the movie line. I used to collect random comic characters I liked on the side. I have The Maxx, Hellboy, Devilman, Cthulhu, and some Spawns. I recently realized how much I like Batman and all his villains so I started finding the best figure of each Batman villain and buying it. It's been a tad difficult but I got some good deals. I have three more to get. Clayface will be the hardest since his figure is super rare and expensive to boot. I have a rule I won't pay more then 30 for a single figure so we'll see where that gets me.

**Jester** · 01-29-2009, 12:32 AM

I'm all about some Marvel Legends and DC Universe figures. The whole Build A Figure idea makes me a pseudo-completest.

EDIT: Spit, they are re-releasing some of the harder to find figures in 2 packs soon. Clayface is one, comes with a Battle-Damaged/Muddy Bats.

*Ninjinister* · 01-29-2009, 12:41 AM

TMNT is all I normally collect, but I have a decent amount of Dragon Ball figures as well. I might be looking to add more video game figures to my collection - a Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter here and there, a Mario, and some Pokemon, in addition to the Mega Man ones I got for Christmas, are about it thus far.

Yeah I've seen him on Ebay, he was still pricey I just hope to maybe find him in a store sometime. Thanks for the heads up though I had no idea it was a new item.

New and old. I think Clayface (and Two-Face,) were released as part of the last waves of the Batman and Superman only DC Universe figures along with Catwoman and Nightwing, I think, but they are hard to find. I'm hoping the 2 pack will be easier to track down.

www.dcuniverseclassics.com has a list of those releases.

I actually just found a pre-order for only 26 bucks. Thanks for the link that will come in handy.

They made the Red and Blue Supermen into figures? Awesome 'possum!

andrewdsz · 01-29-2009, 09:17 AM

I have to post some of my collections,but my main line is chogokin and HK designer toys,especially Tim tsui, anyone heard of him?

*Mecha Cow* · 01-29-2009, 09:41 AM

Whoa, we have a toy forum now.

I love action figures, but I don't buy them too often because they're expensive and they take up a lot of space. I don't collect anything specific anymore, but every now and then I'll buy a figure I think looks nice.

Lately I've been into Transformers, mostly because they're fun to mess around with, which is a nice change from having figures collect dust on the shelf. Just today I got a couple of the new Animated Transformers. I don't watch the cartoon but the toys have a really nice look to them.

*That Matt Guy* · 01-29-2009, 12:51 PM

Used to collect a lot a few years ago, Star Wars and Marvel Legends were my main lines. I don't have time to chase after figures these days, and all the ones I have sit in boxes in the bottom of a closet. Also Star Wars really got boring, they have done just about every character ever and ML went downhill after Hasbro took over, but they might have gotten their act together by now, I really don't know though.

The best figures I ever got were those Castlevania ones NECA came out with awhile back.

*Raph's Girl* · 01-29-2009, 01:01 PM

I mostly collect:

TMNT
Pez Despencers
Barbies (altho I haven't gotten any new ones in a while....definatly am gonna be getting the Star Trek ones)
Star Trek
Star Wars

My main line these days is TMNT but that'll probably be changing real quick when the new Star Trek stuff comes out. *lol*

Blade Raider · 01-29-2009, 03:35 PM

Let's see...I collect a little of everything...

Mostly Transformers (Beast Wars and Animated to be more specific).
1/18 scale (3 3/4", 3.75", Joe scale, etc.) figures. I love the scale. Just big enough for good articulation, but small enough to get the big items (like playsets). I do most of my customs in this scale. If I'm making a human type custom, this is the size I go for. I most get GI Joe and Star Wars, but I'm not big on space and army guys. I loved the Indiana Jones and I'm sad/mad to see it end (I want my ToD and Toht figures!). I also have a handful of Pirates of the Caribbean figures, including the huge Black Pearl playset. Now with Marvel and DC going to this scale, I'm a happy man (Okay, the DC ones kind of suck, but still). Basically, if it's in 1/18 scale, I might get it

TMNT of course, thou I'm mostly just getting key vintage items I've been wanting. In 07 I got just about everything I ever wanted from the vintage stuff, so I've mostly stopped these days.
Power Rangers is starting to draw me back in with their Retrofire and Micro Megazords.
Then random other stuff from just about all over the place.

I also DVDs. That's where a lot of my new Turtles items are these days.

joe-eyeball · 01-29-2009, 04:44 PM

My primary toy line is TMNT and I have maybe 150 transformers and I used to be big into SLU's. Heck I probably got 300 or so of the Starting Line ups.

I also have all of the Legendary Comic Book Heroes line. God I wish that line would never have been canceled.

*Candy Kappa* · 01-29-2009, 05:21 PM

I guess tmnt is the closest I come to something I can call a collection

Peanut · 01-29-2009, 06:56 PM

I collect very few lines now that I'm not 10-years-old, but whenever I really like something, I'll try and get them all. The latest one was Series 1 of the Halo 3 figures, which were all awesome. Canada got f*cked for Series 2, and then Series 3 showed up, followed by bits and pieces of Series 2, which totally took my heart of collecting the things. Before that, I hunted down all the CN Clone Wars figures.

I was a huge collector of all Star Wars figures for a very long time, but again, age made me grow out of it, despite the fact I still love Star Wars as much as I did as a kid. It's weird, I always figured I'd be one of those older posters on the SHH forums (back when it was for Spider-Man) who talked about collecting action figures at the age of 30, but I never turned out like that.

Weird how stuff works.

**GK Punk** · 01-29-2009, 07:07 PM

I go in phases with it sometimes. But I figure if collecting something like GI Joe makes me happy, I kinda don't care that I'm almost 30. Especially since I've met so many collectors even older than me. Dating a girl that was in to collecting definetely helped though.

Peanut · 01-29-2009, 07:17 PM

Preach, brotha. I wish I was still into it whenever I see something really awesome at Toys R Us I want to buy, but my brain just won't let me justify it anymore.
