Hello everyone.
I don't really know what to say on this..
I very recently started recollecting action figures. I used to keep them when I was younger until one day, something tragic happened. My parents threw them away.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask. :D

Thanks for the welcome.
And I know, it was sad.. I got mad for a while but eh.. That's when I started getting collector's editions for video games :P

At the moment I have several figures from Marvel Universe, Green Lantern (Mattel Movie Series), Star Trek (Movie Series 6" Warp Collection), and Batman: Arkham City.
I also have random figures from other collections but those are my main ones.

What about you?

Welcome to the nut shack, Reza. There's a lot of interesting, nice and helpful people here as well as plethora of information about toys in general!

In the comic business I hear tales such as yours at least once a week, although concerning comic books so I feel your pain.

As for myself, I collect mainly Doctor Who figures and DC Universe Classics as well any other DC line which may add to the DC collection over all. I don't collect the Green Lantern Movie Masters but own a few of them to compliment my DC Universe figures.

I like Marvel Universe 3 3/4 figures I just don't collect them.

Thank you Van Statten.

Yeah, it's a tragedy. The good thing about the comic book business is that you can now own them digitally so there's no risk on getting them damaged or lost. Granted, you lose the pleasure of having them physically.

I noticed you are a huge Doctor Who and DC Universe fan, I saw your posts on the New Additions thread (don't recall the exact name).

I've seen some interesting DC characters but I've always been more inclined to Marvel but eh, it's never too late to acquire new tastes. :D
