What is your strategy for collecting things to celebrate your favorite media?
These days I usually wait until MacFarlane has something out, they usually have the best build quality. Best practice is to buy one for collection (keep in package), and one for show/play.

I'm not 6 years old, so I don't buy toys.
Those Japanese make some wicked good figyahs, dood.
Go Sox.

In case you haven't checked, it's finally considered really fucking cool to be a nerd and have a personality now. Go back to high school Chad, I know that's where you peaked.
>we've become a nation of grown men that watch cartoons and play with dolls
Fuck, at least Japan has the excuse that they had a couple of nukes dropped on them to explain their cuckoldry. What went wrong?

I have that figure. They used "Exclusive to TRU" sticker to cover up the cock head on the tentacle thing. Reminded me when the Hellboy toys were "HB II" labeled on them because "hell" is too scary for kids I guess.
>>71491857
They're not dolls.. they're uh... collectable doll merchandise. Uh. Yeah.
Oh dear. Simon Pegg was right about us. What has happened to us?!
I've got 3 Sci-fi figures, and I'd maybe get more, but I much prefer soundtracks/nice collector's editions/theatrical posters if I'm going to show my appreciation for a film. Maybe occasionally a big coffee table art book if it warrants it. So far I only have Kubrick.

Lootcrate sent a dollar store inflatable crown to people along with a clip on d20 bowtie and other stuff.
Nerds lapped it up as ironically hilarious that they were given cheap dollar store junk for their money.

The shirt wasn't bad for a cheap shirt if you like DnD. The Princess Bride cards were nice if you happen to like that movie.
The Stark 4gig usb stick was okay.
Don't give a shit about Harry Potter.
I got this as a part of a gift, so no worry for me.
Yet I cannot bring myself to pay for this shit. It's too much of a crap shoot.

Naw. It's Mezco. They cheaped out on Breaking Bad figs and made them even less articulate than McFarlane toys. Guess they figure BB fans are more normie and just want statues.
>>71492701
The Hulkster actually goes outside and gets some sun, brother!
>>71492693
Technically all those cape figmas are based on the movies so they're pretty high up the ladder
Basically if you're a scalper or just consume Mattel and Hasbro crap you're a manchild loser who deserves the chair
I got two Spawn figures and don't even know that much about Spawn

Lootcrate is ingenious. They send you tons of garbage marked up probably over 200% and nerds just keep racking up credit card debits.
Unbelievable why anyone would want this garbage cluttering their house.
Do males seriously play with toys past the age of 8?

I don't charge it, just use the leftover from my student loans each semester. Same with my Star Citizen/Oculus VR purchases.
>>71493155
In terms of RRP to Loot, it's usually good. The issue is all the crap from franchises you give no shit for.
why do people want meaningless stuff? i honestly don't get why people buy things just to put them on a shelf or maybe use once. just imagine all the cheap plastic garbage, tons of it, that will end up in the ocean and kill something someday.

My partner bught me a 1950's Godzilla. Not only does it have great articulation and detail, it's also a memento of our first year together.
But nah, a lump of plastic can never be associated with positive events or feelings, it's just plastic, right?

I'm a custodian for several office buildings. LITERALLY every office has "that guy" with consumershit on his desk. The most popular being Breaking Bad.
>>71496051
It's alright senpai :^)
>>71491118
I've got a Mario and Donkey Kong plushie from my elementary school days.
A few action figures; Unit 1 and 2 from Evangelion, and Ada Wong and Chainsaw Ganado from Resident Evil 4. Got a couple props from the Silent Hill movie as well. I don't actively go out searching for more to add to my autism shelf, if it happens it happens.

i kind of went on a figure binge this year because i always felt like a shithead for wanting to buy toys. but i said fuck it and now i have a shelf full of film related figures. NECA are GOAT bang for your buck, i want to start getting the older Sideshows though, gonna stick to Horror figures now.
collecting figures is actually kinda fun if you go on a hunt for older ones, here's a 12'' episode 3 Sheev for maximum treason
>>71496938
Just got the black series Captain Phasma. Now I have Phasma, Kylo Ren, Poe, and Finn. I'm trying to get Rey next so I can have a complete set of all TFA main characters and villains. Next I'll work on an OT set.

This is all just the shambling corpse of Reaganomics as kids that grew up in the 80s never outgrew the mindless consumerism they were raised on.

Quick someone make a custom CIA figure.

>>71498839

>MacFarlane
The creator of Spawn is McFarlane is the faggot who created Family Guy. Neither of which have been good for at least a decade.
>>71491857
And you're the faggot that thinks it's better by going online and talking shit about them.
I can afford it. I can afford what I need and what I like. What can you do, other than bitch and moan like a cheap whore?
>>71492619
What are those bookstore toys? Never heard of them.
>>71498845
I am convinced that at some point there will be sonic youth action figures

Are those Ron Perlman and Faora from Man of Steel?

Translation: I'm using a quote to justify my infantile consumerism.
Don't buy toys. Don't play video games. Volunteer to help people, build things, speak to people. Stop being a target with a wallet.
