    The GI Joe 25th line and baseball autos, though I've got just about every player I want now. Just need Ichiro's.

    Lately, it's been Gundam models, but I also collect DC figures too.

    Oh man, what DON'T I collect?

    Minimates - my first love, actually
    DC Direct figs - still need to get all the New Frontier toys
    DC Universe figs

    Those are consistent, but new ones have been popping up thanks to this blasted board. I'm waiting for my local anime shop to get in God Keron from the Sgt Frog series so I can snap him up, and the Brave series has gotten its claw into me; Masterpiece Dragon Kizer arrived yesterday, and I'm currently waiting for Masterpiece King Exkaiser to show up at my door any day now.

    I haven't bought any TFs in awhile, though Im still debating with myself on some of the encore items. I have been recently getting into the Joes 25th line. I got a bunch of the single carded figures, and just made a trade to get some more.

    25th Anniversary gijoe, DCUC, Marvel Legends(every now and then now, the Iron Man stuff is excellent though), Star Wars, Macross(once I get the funds), and others but the ones listed are the ones I mainly buy.

    There was a time not too long ago where DCUC, Star Wars, and the joes were hard as balls to find. Thats when I decided to take a step into SWTF aside the Darth Vader I had. They're okay, lets just say I am glad I was able to find more of the stuff I usually collect some time later.

    Well it depends on what I can find and the price is right. I've been snagging some GI 25th Aniversery figs here and there (Beach Head, Snake Eyes, Shipwreck and Cobra Comander (metal mask) )

    I also love Marvel Legends, but most of the figures I actually want from it are usually discontinued and I'm not that all impressed with the "Brood" serries. Also I'm a little upset at Hasbro for their Wal-Mart Exclusive Two Packs. One had Cable and Marvel Girl, and the other had Dominoe and Cannonball. WTF? I mean Cable should of been packed with Dominoe and vice versa for the other two, but no that would be too convienent. Also I like Marvel Select, Got all 3 Zombie figures that I'm proud to have.

    I also got a Hokuto-No-Ken Kenshiro figure that's a Black Variant

    I'm quite fond of the Sota Street Fighter line, though the only one I have is a light blue Variant of Chun-Li, I did pre-order Revolutions Akuma from BBTS sometime after christmas, but they don't have him up there anymore! Also another thing, I also pre-ordered the Darkstalker figures but they keep getting pushed back because apparently they aren't getting enough people to buy them which is a damn shame.

    Also I have a Revoltech Mazinkaiser that I was kind of dissapointed with because of the scale and I didn't understand the joint system, however seeing a thread about Revoltechs and how poseable they really are made me apreciate him more. So needless to say I'm hoping to get some more Revoltechs.

    And curse all you people out there making web comics with Bousou Shinkis, and curse all the members of the cult for making me want to start collecting them! :banghead:

    Right now I'm into some of the 25th Anniversary G.I.Joe stuff. I also like to collect toy and other things to do with movies, tv shows, and music.

    I try my best to just back away and save my money, but things that capture my imagination always manage to crop up. Over the past few months, it's been:

    Iron Man movie figures
    vintage Ninja Turtles
    the recent Power Rangers Super Legends (Green Ranger, Lord Zedd)
    Tachikomas from the "Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex" anime
    Green Lantern-related figures in miscellaneous DC lines

    Well, I am getting into a lot things now since I didn't have much freedom or money to do so when I was younger.

    Star Wars - Clones mainly, maybe a few others because they come pack with the clone I want
    Transformers - what missed out or misplaced
    Iron Man - I am trying not to get suck in but it's hard when one or two figure call you out
    Lego - mostly bionicle
    McFarlane toys - Dragon series, Halo 3, and so forth
    Nerf - :D  Just because you got to have a few
    Busou Shinki - I blame this board. If I never went on here, I wouldn't have gotten sucked in
    Revelotech - mainly the Patlabor line, well soon. I got none but I plan on them.
    Gundam action figures - again really hard if online, but the local area been kind to me so far
    Digimon - 1 or 2 figures, the old figures are really hard to collect and pricey

    And some odd one or two from whatever line I see.

    Oh and some of the Hulk figures really interested me.

    McFarlane Halo 3. Half crack, half Grifball, all good. Oh man, once there's an orange Mark VI...

    Ultraman. You can't beat awesome renditions of giant monsters for under $10 a pop, ones that haven't gotten respect in the US for decades at that.

    Gormiti. Shame on America for taking so long in selling them.

    Right now it's 25th Joe, McFarlane Sportspick, Marvel Legends (very few now..only selected figs), and Iron Man.

    Used to collect Gundam MSiA, Lord of the Rings, Sigma 6, Marvel Legends (ToyBiz), AvP, and few other that I can't remember.

    Edit: Forgot about SOTA Street Fighter figs... the upcoming wave will complete the SF2 characters. Can't wait.

    Star Wars as of right now. I've done some Lego (Exo-Force) in the past as well as Mugenbine but I have an ever growing Star Wars collection right now.
