I'm not sure if I'm proud to own any of my toys but not in an embarrassed way. I take pride in my collection but I have no overt sense of pride for any particular toy. A lot of people will say their Con Exclusives or the "rare" ones, proud that they can make a quick buck if need be?

MU or any toy? And proud meaning rare or really really enjoy the toy? Its hard to pick a favorite MU above all the rest, but guys like Cable, two pack Thanos, Silver Samurai, and Nova are ones Im happiest with just going off the top of my head.

Well, I love my ultimate and 616 Hawkeye figs a ton, and some other favorites are modern Colossus (one of the most underrated figures in the line,) Dr. Strange, and comic pack Bullseye.

So hard to say. Before my wedding I sold off nearly all of my toys from when I was a kid so it wouldn't be anything with like that. I can think of a few things I would be very proud to own if I still had them. Stuff that really has a spotlight in my collection would be MP Prime and Unicron as well as purple Galactus. I have sweet Namor and X-Force Nightcrawler that are my faves among my MU.

any toy for any reason, not just monetary.

like personally the only toys i collect are MU, deadpools, doctor dooms, evil dead/AOD, green bay packers and boston celtics, i collect odds and ends like i got yoda fighting grevious and maul. i havent really been collecting very long, im almost caught up with the MU figs that i like, im only missing like 7 or 8 that are made so far.

my favorite toy is probably my AOD bobble head ash i didnt know it existed and my wife bought it for my birthday. my first MU (wolvie origins one) deadpool is pretty close i found and opened one in a walmart and went to pay for it and the lady said she couldnt sell it to me, i had to convince a manager to sell it to me, i had never and have never seen another one in a store

Ok slight adjustment, same basic question, Your house is on fire, your family, pets phots and sentimental items are out and safe, only your MU collection is in danger, you can only save what you can carry in one trip (maby 10 singles, or a couple Master Works) and you cant repurchase the ones you loose.... who do you save?

yeah i think ill find another hobby, im content with my family being safe

Better idea, keep an large empty duffle bag in a closet near your collection area. I'd be tossing my figs in there quicker than if i was a contestant on Supermarket Sweep.

[skywarrped]

I propose taking a picture of your favorite toy(s) and posting it for appreciation. Unfortunately for me I probably can't do that until Monday, but I'd love to see everyone else's!

[kylactus]

My collection room still has plenty of boxes laying around, most empty. I could just clear a few shelves into a box and be out in like 15 seconds. In real life I doubt I would take the of grabbing things other than putting on some clothes. Insurance would cover it. Might try to grab the hard drive.

I'm using that sugar man figure and I'm very happy with it. Here is a pic.

[wylde bil]

they really need to make a 90's blue furball beast and a old school man ape style beast as well

come on hasbro how bout you release 7 new characters a wave, 2 waves a year.
and a case can be 4 reprints 8 new, with the eighth being a random of the 7, or a variant of one of the 7 (but dont make to many variants how bout 2 or 3 a wave).

4 team packs a year, 2 per wave with a case being 2 old, 3 new with 1 either being a random double up of one of the new ones or a variant of one. (with only 1 from each wave having a variant old or new)

4 new 2 packs a year, again 2 per wave and a case can be 4 new and 2 old.

it doesnt seem to hard or to much to ask for in my opinion.
it would be 34 new figs a year (not counting variants)
variants would make it some where between 39 to 46.
if they stagger the releases we could get something new every 2 months.
