How big is your collection... NOW?

How big is your collection... NOW?
Posted in
Action Figure ChatterI just had a thought that my collection differs from when I was a child, seems obvious, but what I mean is my LOTR collection for example was significantly smaller in my child life and then I got rid of it all and now I have more than before, but still 2 figures I used to have I lack. On the flipside I have aover the top sized Star Wars collection that I have never downsized and it will get larger after I see Episode VII I am sure. My Marvel collection is larger, but not in number sense but in cahracter sense. I have too many Marvel universe figures that I don't even use, probably gonna sell them all save a few, and I have a reasonable Marvel Legends collection and the odd 5 inch figure from the Spiderman animated series. I prefer 6inch figures now compared to my youth self, thats probably because I prefer detail and articulain with less gimics than I did, but Star WArs will always be 3.75 inches for me. Lego lets not go there its a lot, mainly Star Wars. Halo is interesting becasue I had played sme Halo games and jsut loved the look of Spartans, so I custmised a load of lego minifigs to look like Master Chief and Spartans etc, but I bought Hazop twin pack out of liking Red V Blue, now my collection is moderate in a shoe box overflowing with Spartans, Master Chief variants and Covenant characters. I have a very small DC collection. I do not enjoy DC as much as Marvel, but what I do love is BATMAN. I am looking forward to any new Batman figures from the Bat v Supes film, but not excited about the film as I hated Man of Steel. I am lookign forward to Batman kicking the crap out of supes (if they use the material from the Dark Knight Returns) I do want them to team up as well though. So my DC collection is basically a Batman from each Nolan film, Heath Ledger Joker, Bane from DKR, Scarecrw from Arkham Asylum becasue that was the best design of him ever and then some Batman and Robin figures from the 95 film. Spaceships, vehicles and others are limited really because I have liek 4-5 Star Wars ships and Vehicles (Slave 1, Tie-Fighter, Speeder, Tie Advanced, Vulture Droid, Obi-Wans Jedi intercepter, Sith Infiltrator, Naboo Starfighter and some others I can't remember) and I have a lot of Star Wards Dioramas, but I find that you always end up making your own. My favourite playset as a child was the skyrider playset, but then as a child I mainly had loads of Spidey's and little to no villians. Pretty sure the only one I had in Legends scale was Morbius, but thats a spiderman classics and Venom in 5 inch scale. so really its down to online shopping as an older bloke that I have access to anything now lol. WHAT ABOUT YOU MR/MRS/MS/MISS (INSERT NAME HERE) WHAT COLLECTION DO YOU HAVE AND DO YOU HAVE MORE OR LESS OF PARTICULAR THINGS NOW THAT YOU ARE OLDER?


Please wait...

Batman on eBay
Got rid of mostly everything else since I don't make photo comics anymore :/
If there were a modern Biker Mice From Mars line, I'd get the figs and their bikes. But part of me knows they'd be made in an ugly 80s aesthetic, like motuc, so I'd pass lol
