I will start by saying that my passion is TMNT, however, I have the whole collection from the new cartoon, the retro collection and 6" classic collection. I am pretty satisfied at this point. I would love to own every original character from the 80's and 90's, but that is a HUGE investment and that kind of takes the fun out of the whole collecting thing. I plan on buying the dozen or so new cartoon characters coming out and then I will consider the new movie figures.
GI Joe is my second passion. I loved the 25th Ann line because they are basically replicas of what I had as a kid. Once I complete this collection, I will probably buy some Snake Eyes in the other lines as I'm a huge SE fan. At this point I'm going to stop the whole 'completing the collection' idea I had. No sense on buying things I don't like... example: TMNT Snakeweed...lol
Fourth obsession as a kid was The Real Ghostbusters. Those figures were awesome! I see that they have a GB line from Mattel I believe, but I'm not sure what I want to do as far as collecting them.
MOTU was also a line I liked as a kid, but I'm thinking I might just buy the Classics He-Man and Skeletor and call it a day. Oh, maybe Orko too
As far as DC, Marvel, Transformers and Star Wars are concerned, I'm planning on focussing on one line at a time... IE: Marvel Universe will be my first focus and once I m satisfied with who and what I have, I will move on to DC or Trans or Star Wars.
Does that sound like a good plan? Am I thinking about this properly?
Please feel free to offer better advice if I'm headed in a silly direction. I want to be satisfied with my collection down the road.
Thanks in advance.
