    Ever feel "forced" to buy a figure?

    ^ amazing post! I quit collecting for 10 years as well. Eventually transitioned from carded McFarlane figures to 1/6 Hot Toys. Now my collection is 10x the size of my previous collection; it fills my entire basement. I also agree with "in the air" purchases. I have a bad habit of buying...

    Ever feel "forced" to buy a figure?

    Or maybe I should have titled this thread "I don't need it, but my collection needs it". I am not really talking about being a completist, but rather encountering figures that for one reason or another "should" be in your collection. I can think of two recent examples: Ruthless Blade: When the...

    1/6 Hot Toys - Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness - Scarlet Witch Figure

    i thought this figure turned out pretty good. My first and last figure of this character. As mentioned above, PERS would have added a bit more to this figure. I found her hard to pose in a levitated state, but the details are excellent. Her face is really pale and a bit shiny

    1/6 Hot Toys - Loki - God Loki Figure (Artisan Edition & Regular Sculpted)

    I gotta say these green strings look pretty silly. In the figure he is only holding segments of time, not the whole string

    1/6 Hot Toys - Loki - God Loki Figure (Artisan Edition & Regular Sculpted)

    I think this is an excellent example that the endtimes are truly upon us. I also think this is my 4th or 5th Loki figure, which is also embarrassing.

    1/6 Hot Toys - Loki - God Loki Figure (Artisan Edition & Regular Sculpted)

    Wow, didn't know I was going to preorder this figure when I woke up this morning. I also had the issue with the payment plan, but I have ben able to retroactively apply the payment plan after the deposit is credited on previous orders, so I went with the full plan for this for now.

    Hot Toys C-3PO (ROTJ)

    You are right! Not oppressive at all. In fact, I may add some more, like oil dripping from his restraining bolt. I think this is a very well done release, just a few years too late. A bit surprised at his lack of articulation, but after seeing this character in 9 films, I should know his body...

    1/6 Hot Toys Luke Skywalker - Dark Empire (Legends)

    This reminds me of Dr. Strange in Iron Man armor. Does not compute

    What figure do you regret passing on the most?

    I have had this happen to me three times this year: I procrastinated on a purchase, weighing my options, then finally bit the bullet and bought it (usually a big ticket item). Then I found out I bought the last one that retailer had. That is a pretty satisfying feeling to vanquish FOMO. Or at...

    The Prisoner Retro Style Action Figures - Wave No.2

    One of my favorite shows and I am surprised it hasn't been rebooted yet. This is an amazing effort, but I am married to 1/6 scale, so this is a no-go for me

    Executive Replicas 2001 Space Odyssey Astronauts

    I caved and ordered this, as I could envision my display of the 6 suits I have flanking this piece in a brightly lit diorama. Diorama to begin construction at some point. When I have more display space. Anyway, ordered from BBTS as they only had $4 shipping. Looks like I was the last to preorder...
