c. the line of toys itself and their stories

I don't mean to offend, but that's what it's always seemed like to me. :P
With that being said, I have a few things on card simply because of value and what I paid for it. My stuff is moc only if it's a double or I paid a much higher amount of money than retail (and that's still only true in a few cases.) For example, I want to know if I'm hurting for money someday that having spent 70 bucks on a sealed ML deadpool can still net me at least 70 when I need it. Had I bought it for 9.99, he'd be fighting doop all day long. ;P
I dunno man can't say I agree with you here. To me it's just the difference between the dudes who grew up taking excellent care of their toys and the dudes who liked getting them out in the mud!

Some people just like to make sure their stuff stays as flawless as possible.. other people just feel I have to enjoy it while I can. It's differing opinions.. and anyone collecting toys is NOT doing it for the money, it's not really the gold mine that many collectors believe it to be. Value is subjective to opinion.

Not a MOC collector btw, bust them toys out and POSE EM! YEAH!!
