Army Building Question MU
 
I'm not sure if I want to start army building. I kinda want the TRU pack to drop in price but I'm still uncertain about whether or not I want to build an army period.

I was thinking just getting about 3 of each figure. I chose that number because I'm sure that along with the army, we will get characters from the division. (Dum Dum Dugan, BOB, MODOK etc).

My question is, do you aim to army build and if so what is the minimum number you set out to acquire of each troop?

six per soldier is fine with me. it ain't so much an army as a functional squad.

Well, I think for most of us, if we had unlimited space and money, we'd probably build some fairly large armies, comparable to what is seen in the comics. But for the economy collector (me), I think 3 is a perfect number to start off with. 2, of course, is just too "twin" like, it never works.

3 is the start off point. Leaving it at 3, of course, is not a very formidable army. I think the sweet spot for me would be 8-10, just because I have limited space. It depends on the organization, though. For example: HYDRA soldiers are pretty expendable, so there would be way more of those guys in your figure army. Same for the AIM soldiers. But SHIELD would have better trained tactical units, so you would need less for them, say around 5-6 figures.

I do agree with you that you would have to take into account possible leaders and field officers like Baron Strucker and Nick Fury.

One of the more interesting armies I'm looking to build is actually a one-man army. When Multiple Man comes out, off the bat I'm gonna try to get at least 3.

3 to me is a pretty good number to indicate that the figure is a grunt and not a unique character. The TRU 3-pk is really tempting me. I already have bought 2. However I hate the Hydra goon and want a trenchcoat version, I already have enough red Hand ninjas, and I'd like Maria Hill, Dum Dum, etc to fill out my SHIELD forces.

Tarquinius 05-14-2010 10:14 AM

Hmmm its such a shame the TRU pack is the way it is.

Hand Ninjas are a dime a dozen both on the shelves and in the mythology (unknown amounts).

I have a whole bunch of weapons I wanna use for different squads (snipers, anti-armor, recon etc) hence why I wanna create an army.

So most of you guys have about 3 of each?
