I am waiting for this to be released... preordered it from BBTS...

 

I will sell off a couple of robot things to justify the price.

I honestly believe that it is always best to start with the higher end pieces first as they will be the toughest to obtain the longer you wait. It doesn't mean to just throw money at them but those should be the focus. Final 17 are a great start. Are you going to go for Yak Face as well?

Yes. Yak Face is one of the few I have never owned. I plan to do mostly loose figures including Blue Snaggletooth. These were cheaper than I could purchase loose so I went ahead and grabbed them. I am not going to try and find deals and not looking to complete this quickly.

You should have no problem completing a loose collection then. I would also consider initially buying lots of complete figures then to take the ones you want to keep for your collection.

Sold that GI Joe lot this morning. Complete. Obviously could have sold for more if I parted it out, but just kinda needed the space back.

 

I sympathize... I bought a lot on here with the intent to restore a couple of things. Once I received everything I realized how much space it really takes up.

 

When I was a kid I never understood that argument.

 

As an adult... I realize how in the way the vehicles and things really are.

Well, I have a whole nerd room already just for my comics & Art & everything but I was gonna need a whole wall-length table just to set everything up. I lined the floor of almost the whole perimeter of the room while I was putting everything back together to check for completeness. That's when I realized how much space it really was.

I grabbed this last week. When I was putting together my Carded run to 87 together this was the only figure I could not find carded. When they popped up on Ebay I would lose even above market bids.

I would rather have the Flagg.

 

Got one of those complete with the box about a year ago.

The box is flippin gigantic. Could barely transport it.
