You have quit a collection. I cant afford to collect anywhere near that. I have limited my collection to building a Navy and Marine Corps. For land based troops I have limited that to air assualt troops and artillery troops in tanks, vamps, as well as Sluggers, Howitzers and pilots of planes. For Cobra I have built what amounts to a Navy and Marine Corps on that side as well. Vehicles conist of a couple of tanks, the original MOBAT times 2, 2ea sluggers with a Howitzer, Twin Cannon or Rocket Launcher to tow behind each one of those. Vamp I, II, III some modified vamps with a Hawk missile launcher attached. I have integrated some Click n Play/World Peacekeepers Helicopters of 3 differt types with multiple of each, 2 style of tanks with 3 of each, jets of two types being the Hornets and SU-27, jeeps, HUMMVE, playset bases and off brand diving suits, dive cages and wild life like sharks. Limited Chap Mei toys make an appearance as well like the Harrier Jet, Submarine, Hovercraft and Battleship. I have been collecting parts to build a USS Flagg at some point. Two of the Chap Mei Battleships make up my Naval ships so far. They are 30 inches long and 6 inches wide so not anything to write off either. I have fun painting items to make them look more real and used as well as modifications. Like 2 of may hornets have been made into true Super Hornets with single seat cockpits taken from 25th Anniversary Sky Strikers, they have 3d printed additional weapons beyond stock, targeting pods, jamming pods, working tail hooks and refueling probes that pop out of the nose and radar dishes hidden under hinged nose caps. Two have been modified to be Growlers with two seats, multiple electronic warfare jamming pods, multiple fuel tanks and a drag behind fuel hose and net. I have done many of the same modifications to my Sky Strikers and X-30 jets. One of the X-30 is a naval version now with folding wings, tail hook, extra weapons, refueling probe, and thrust vectoring exhaust. I buy parts of figures and broken ones also ti mix parts and make entirly new characters. The modifications and making new characters is how I have true fun with everything.

I have a lot of doubles and triples of GI Joe figures I altered years ago, but I now wish I hadn't. Although I still get compliments to this day for. I could go on for hours. But I'll spare you and only list a few of my favorites. I recast Sgt. Slaughter's hat and epoxied the copy to Duke's head. In addition to that, I painted a fruit salad on his chest and painted his belt gloss black. I recast Tollbooth's head and dremelled the hard hat off of the copy and replaced it with Buzzer's hair. Then, I placed the head on Buzzer. So it looks like the original Buzzer. But without his smile or sunglasses. I made so many alterations on so many of my extra figures, not realizing how much they'd be worth one day. But I had fun, and now I have "GI Joe" figures that no one else has! 🤣🤣🤣

When I was collecting ARAH in 2016, I managed to score a MISB Equalizer for $150. The stickers had lost their stick, so I had to get repro-labels. Shame it didn't come with a driver. I like the Marauders colour scheme. I'd be tempted to get the Classified figures in that sub-group, but some of them are exclusives, so I won't put myself through that hassle.

@drewlovelyhell48923 ай бұрын
@@woodman29 I've considered calling it quits, mainly because of all the exclusives. But I'm in too deep to quit now! I have most of the main line, and bought the HISS and Dragonfly too. But there's a lot of figures I couldn't get, like Dr Mindbender, Chuckles and Major Bludd, plus The Ferret and VAMP. Also, I passed on quite a few figures, usually because of the ugly facesculpts, such as Lowlight, Grunt, Lt Falcon, Quick Kick.. a lot of them look like they are boxers who have taken too many blows to the head. Also, I passed on many of the ninjas and Dreadnoks, and any repaints like TigerForce. I currently have a shipment on the way from BBTS (where I buy all my Classified), including Retro Duke and Scarlett, Snow Serpent, Eel, Night Creeper and Jinx.

I built a vintage ARAH collection in 2016, and I just *had* to get this iconic vehicle. '83 Scarlett rides shotgun because she's one of the few figures without a backpack. All of my figures and vehicles are complete and in C8.5 or better condition, and I disassembled and cleaned each one with warm soapy water and a soft toothbrush. (Should have got a display case, because in the last eight years, they got covered in dust again!) The Silver Mirage is a very flimsy bike! Definitely one to be gentle with.
