I started collecting them after my son found these toys and started playing with them. When I was little I used to play with GIJoes at bath-time and I took my son to the store and he found the MU line. I believe I bought him a Silver Surfer, Warpath (X-Force) and a Captain America. One night while he was in his room with mom getting dressed I went to clean the tub out and put his toys away. That's when it started, I thought about how when I was younger and how cool it would have been if my dad had collected the GIJoes that I played with. Since then I have been collecting (MOC) and sometimes have to buy two of stuff because my son still likes them and will steal mine if I don't get him one. Also after finding out about the prices of some of these things it brought a tear to my eye to see my son play with Warpath in the tub...but then I remember that these TOYS are made for kids just like him and the smile he gets playing with them is priceless. Plus I have always loved Marvel and the 3.75" size (due to loving GIJoes when I was young); also I get to teach my son all about the Marvel Universe, and believe me, there is so much I don't know I get in to learning about it with him. All in all I collect them because I love toys and I get to bond with my son.
