Anyway, as the title states I'm starting to collect action figures. The problem is I don't know where to start. I was thinking about getting my 2 favorite DC characters (Harley and The Flash), but then I thought that they wouldn't really go together and that I should get the trinity, Batman, Superman, and Wonderwoman. I also don't know which figure to get since their are many different figures of each character.

So my question is what figures should I start with? My favorites, or the classics, and which specific figure.
Welcome to the Ark!

Between the choice of favorites and classics I always go with favorites first. If you don't really want a figure don't get it. If you want a Harley Quinn figure it doesn't oblige you to also get Joker or Batman if you don't also want them. DC Icons, a line from DC Collectibles, has made both Flash and Harley Quinn and I believe they're both still easy to get. It also depends on what kind of figures you want. Regarding these characters if you prefer looks over functionality you'd probably want to steer more towards DC Collectibles or other similar collector-oriented lines, these lines will of course often have functionality but typically their look is where more of the resources went. If you prefer functionality/playability over looks I'm honestly not sure I should recommend Mattel because their current offerings aren't even very well articulated and going back for older worthwhile figures can prove expensive. So yeah for Flash and Harley Quinn I'd recommend looking at the DC Icons figures.
