Collector's Corner

This Thread is primarily for action figure discussion (Marvel Legends, Select, Universe or Dc Direct/Universe)

I apologize if this is the wrong section, but this seemed like a good a place as any for this.

I've only got some of the hasbro's marvel universe line for this kind of stuff.

I've recently started getting into it pretty hardcore, especially marvel Legends. I really appreciate that both DC direct & ML are both 6" figures, now if only Dc can get better... Well all around. They have 2 molds for 75% of their figures, a generic male and generic female. There is no reason Captain Cold & Superman should be the same size.

Marvel Legends has stepped its game up and the next two waves look sick. We have the Gotg movie wave with Starlord, Gamora, Rocket & Drax along with Godkiller Ironman & Nova prime. They come with the pieces to Form an amazing looking Groot. At some point we also have a wave of odd ball characters with Songbird,Agent Venom, Radioactive man, Blizzard, current Thor, Batroc the Leaper, & Tigershark with a Build a figure Jubilee.

Marvel Select is still the gold standard in affordable collectables though imho, just got the new Surfer and I absolutely love it and while they scaled it to 7" it still fits my displays most of the time.

I have all Blackest Night action figures plus GL series 4 & 5 and some from earlier series. Killowog being my favorite. I collect a other figures like Star Wars Black series, started collecting Marvel universe 3.75 which I love and Marvel Legends which I like some(ball joints turn me off). Other than that I collect statues.

I guess ill post my collections

Lol I have The same full set of rings Digi posted. I have the Blackest Night Orange Lantern, Red Lantern, Indigo Lantern, and Blue Lantern figures. And a lot of things Flash. I collect most things I see that are Flash. I have two Flash mugs..one for using one for display, A Statue, Shot glass, posters, and The DC Universe figure. I can't think of the rest off the top of my head but usually if its Flash related in anyway I will buy it regardless of its "collect ability"

I have a ton of figures from the Spider-Man TAS. Since I got them as a child they are all open 🙁 lol

I also have started collecting novelty replica swords. I have The Rebellion and Yammoto (Devil May Cry) and The He-Man sword. Those are at my parents house atm.

Thanks for sharing

I just ordered Hulk Classics Gremlin, The amazing Spiderman 2 Beetle & Boomerang, & Spiderman Classics Buzzing Beetle & Tarantula.
