95% of my collection is now MPs and HT, with a few CHUG tfs in the mix. I sold a few HT/SS figs simply because they didn't meet the look I was going for.
Pretty much exactly what I've done. kept a few japanese G1 and most of my 1/6 is DC licensed and customs with a few marvel sprinkled in. Much more manageable.
If you have the budget and space, go for it! Main problem for me is they only do movie versions and I only want comic versions of Marvel characters. For Transformers, I only buy MP or 3P "MP" style since I got back into collecting.
Nothing wrong with that, it could be one heck of a "Masterpiece" collection. If you were to focus on those two, the expense almost makes you stop collecting other stuff and sell off what you have to fund it. Out of curiosity, what all would you stop collecting and sell off? MP's, HT's, and Mezco One:12 have been pretty much my entire focus for the past year and it feels pretty nice. Although I have sold off lots of stuff, I could never 'just' have those three. TFPrime and the Zelda Figma/Nendroids will have to be ripped from my cold dead hands. I'd never sell those to get a couple of Hot Toys or anything else. I also have SW Movie realization that I really enjoy, but I could see the possibility of selling those off in the distant future to fund MP/HT.
Noyce! Really liking the look of Phicen's seamless bodies. I dig 3A and Original Effect's stuff too though the bodies aren't seamless. I've been eyeing OE Himiko for a while but haven't pulled the trigger yet. Still need to unbox 3A RWBY Ruby Rose.
Re: limiting to HT and MP...I'm in that ballpark. Rhinox and Rattap were my last mainline purchases and before those I couldn't even tell you. I'm getting MCU HT's primarily, though still collect some ML (and soon 1:12) for the comic looks I want. DC-wise, I'm mostly set, though am still adding to the BTAS line-up and would definitely continue with a JLA/JLU/STAS line. Lego is my other vice. I do debate cutting either 1/6 or 1/12 scale as they seem redundant to an extent.
That's the direction I'm going as well.. I've seen all of the new Titan figures in stores and didn't pull the trigger on any of them, I just have no interest. I'm worried that my interest in masterpiece might start fading. Anyways.. I still have preorders for things like the figuarts turtles and the mafex Mark XLV and armored batman. Speaking of the mark 45.. Sideshow shipped him today and he should arrive on Monday (bummer I have to wait that long lol).. Ultron prime arrives tomorrow, but I think I'll wait until Monday to open him. I cannot wait to display ultron with war machine and the 45 (I know it's inaccurate, but prime will hold ultimates place.. Hopefully we actually get one)
Oooh. Just saw the possible 1/6 CW DC news on toyark. I'm totally down for flash, arrow, reverse flash, and supergirl if they did them.
I'm still deciding if I want to get Red Sonja. I think it looks good too but the red hair seems a bit off for some reason. I use to love 3A but their stuff got a little repetitive lately. I'm still trying to get the 7th 7 Bones member. Cant believe I forgot to preorder it. I always thought OE figures have a great concept but the quality on their earlier figures are pretty bad so I just got the sniper You pervs! But I actually got a topless shot of her on my Flickr account
So my additional parts came in to finish war Machine's custom base - more lights, and I have "Disco" style LED colors for a custom stand for Disco.
Thanks, my bad I had it on private. Lol Just changed the settings. EDIT: ok nvm, you have to be Flickr member to see that picture because the safe search setting is set to moderate due to obvious reason, sorry lol
Sorry I didnt see your earlier comment but yea it is kinda creepy sometimes but the seamless do help makes the figure looks incredibly realistic in pictures lol I'm actually thinking about using the male body to make a Tony Stark figure. Even the small breast version are bigger than Hot Toys
