Hello I am new here and just wanted to say hello

I normally collect 1/18th military related items from Bbi, 21st century toys Admiral toys...I was first brought here a few weeks ago with the 1/18th F-14 that was posted on your website.....there is a small cottage industry picking up in the 1/18th field as well......so it's not just the established manufactures that are working in that scale.

SO what do you guys collect?

Welcome, great to have you! For right now I collect just original G1 transformers. I used to collect Marvel and Star Wars, but have stopped as of late. If the new Fury Files figures end up being awesome, then I may have to get those.

I used to have quite a few of those when I was kid G1 transformers that is...I stopped collecting them in 87.....I gave them away to a needy kid with no toys. bad thing I saved all the boxes and they were not played with that much.....probably be worth a pretty penny today....I had the GI Joe's thing going on as well with the star wars stuff as well but did not get to heavy in to it after that fad died out in the mid 80's tried to get back into it when all the new star wars films came out...but was not the same......I guess I always was looking for realistic military stuff in small scale and found it....as for Marvel.....the stuff is SOooooo Cool would love to get into it but one hobby is enough......BTW I still like what is coming out with the new Star Wars and Transforms. more of a selection and better detail these days.

Still kicking myself for letting my early stuff go.....

I know what you mean, all my old TFs and Joes, SW, etc, etc, went to Goodwill.

Probably why I ended up re-collecting all the TFs from 84-88.

I still collect TFs, but not everything, and I am really enjoying the 25th Joe line A LOT.

I do collect a few 1/18th Military stuff, for display with GI Joe stuff.

Anyways, welcome to the Ark and please post some collection pics, I'd love to see your collection!

Hows it going man! Great to see you over here! I collect Joes, Transformers, Star Wars, Marvel, DCUC, Macross, and of course, 1/18 military toys though it's disappointing that there isn't much out there now.

Whats up dood! I collect Joe (new and old), some Star Wars and some Marvel. On the last two it is pick and choose. I know I would love to get some 1:18 military stuff but there is not much to choose from right now. Welcome and please post some pics of your collection!
