It's OK, you're wives & girlfriends aren't around to give you the "Evil-Eye"!
What's the most $ you've spent on a single toy?

$400 on a MIB Overlord which I had to sell off as I realized I couldn't justify having so much cash invested in one toy

MIB 100% Japanese Fortress Maximus w/ Master sword (Cerebros has one too)
$1200 (I got a really nice bonus that year from work, (more than $1200) and at the time, it was the last piece of 84-87 I needed) He is my favorite by far |

I'd have to say it's a tie at $185 for Brave Max and reissue Predaking. Never thought I'd spend that much on a single toy, but if I had the cash, I'd probably buy stuff a lot more expensive. I'm still on the hunt for the elusive MISB american boxed Weirdwolf...

$120 on Binaltech Smokescreen GT #2 car was the most I've ever spent. That'll all change once I get MP Grimlock, though.

Which is what I am feeling like doing with mine. It's just too much money that is putting me in a shitty situation each paycheck. When it's paid for, I might sell it.

I'm a chump, to my recollection my priciest has been MP Megatron, 85 bucks shipped when it was recently on sale at TFSource.
I've never had a ton of money at any given time, making the amount of toys I do have seem absolutely insane. I bet at least 80 percent of my earnings the last 10 years or so have gone into action figures. Oi. ONE DAY...I will run with the big dogs. |

$200 for a complete metal predaking that also came with extra accessories. To which I traded only 3 of those accessories for a complete Metroplex.

I've given a couple hundred on loose, complete rare Joes. I don't buy boxed or carded so I don't throw down bucks like you guys.

$300 for a 5' high, 3 3/4" scale custom Silent Castle. I drove to Toledo OH round trip, straight in a rented cargo van, to get it.
It has working lights, inner chambers and came with lots of custom accessories. It is one of the prized item in my collection and I plan to use it for the Hisstank ultimate fan site contest.

I think I spent $80 on a loose complete Sixshot with sealed instructions a few years ago at Botcon. Otherwise, most of my other big ticket stuff was birthday/Christmas, so I didn't actually pay for it myself. Among those are MP Megs, WM MP Screamer and ML Soundwave (Blue). That reminds me, I still need to get the Reprolabels for him, too.

Great Jebus God, man. I totally feel better about my spending habits now, thanks. The most I've plonked down for an individual toy is somewhere between $150-$200 for any one of the following:
TerrorDrome. Defiant Launch Complex. Takara Microman ScopeDog (would reach the $150 with shipping included - and I've got 3 of them). GoodSmile Tachikoma with 18th Motoko fig. Bandai Gundam Dendrobium w/ Orchis (I've got 2 but I lucked out on the second and snagged it for only $75). Not a single regret to be found anywhere for any of them. |

$600 on a loose Fort Max (This was back in 2001 just before the release of car robot's fort max)
$325 on a boxed Star Convoy $120 for a new (At the time) Japanese God Ginrai re-release. Little did I know that if I waited 2 years I could buy it at TRU for $30 on clearance! This is one reason why I switched to GI Joes the most I've spent on them is $300 for a USS Flagg |

11000...YEN on TakTom DMZ-03 Scopedog w/Fyana, and the same amount for Binaltech Black Convoy. Both before shipping, and I am not sure which ended up costing more. I hardly buy a toy worth over $100. I am really cheap, so I'd rather buy 5x$20 toys, lol.
