    Which single figure have you bought several of, and why?

    For me if I buy more than 1 its to keep one in the box and one to display. However on a few occasions i have thought of buying 3, 1 to display in bot mode, 1 in alt, and 1 in box.

    So how about you guys, have you ever gone crazy and bought a bunch of 1 figure?

    Classics Ramjet (3) and Skywarp (2), but that's about it, lol. The two extra Ramjets, and the one extra Skywarp I bought to kitbash. I've only finished one of those so far (Thundercracker), but Dirge is almost done. Unfortunetly I'll need to either buy another Ramjet, or wait and get an extra Acid Storm to replace the wings for my Thrust kitbash.

    The only figure that I conciously bought multiples of was Energon Divebomb, and that was to complete the Energon Abominus.

    I buy a lot of figures twice. I often like to keep the ones I like stored MISB for display with the box (I never intend to "cash in" and sell them or anything). Unfortunately, I don't have the space to display them at the moment, but I will. I just love the way they look in packaging, but I like to have them in hand to.

    I have 2 G1 Prowl figures in my collection. However, one of them is in a glass case because the box was signed by Michael Bell. Other than that, it is one copy per figure.

    I bought two of the following figures:

    Movie Classic Camaro Bumblebee: I got one around the time the movie came out, and got another one in the 2-pack with the battle-damaged Concept Camaro version.

    Movie Legends Bumblebee: I got one by itself, then I just recently got one in the 2-pack with Legends Scorponok, because I really wanted that toy.

    This isn't counting any repaints I've gotten, of course, because those are different figures, in spite of their similarities.

    I've also got an Animated Deluxe Bumblebee, and will most likely get that 3-pack if it reaches Australia, so I'll have a duplicate of that figure if it's the same paint scheme.
