Past the 1,200 mark

Post by Red Baron »

Since I started re-collecting Palitoy Action Force some years back, I've logged purchases of figures (and vehicles) on a spreadsheet. I'm pretty sure it captures everything I've bought, with (perhaps) the odd exception.

Funny how these things grow steadily to almost silly proportions. The spreadsheet tells me I have now amassed just over 1,230 individual figures, with an average price of just £1.20 (proof that I'm tight!). The count doesn't include my original toys from the 1980s, so there are a few more on top.

A lot of these are just in the custom spare piles, but my main collection spreadsheet (which needs revising to poperly count all my custom figures), records the following totals:

Series 1 figures: 249 + 5 customs
Q-Force figures: 110 + 11 customs
SAS figures: 178 + 27 customs
Space Force figures: 199 + 4 customs
Z-Force figures: 219 + 34 customs
Enemy figures: 236 + 18 customs

These are both complete and incomplete figures. I think there are now more customs than are currently counted, but it does show I need to work on Space Force a bit more!

I really must get around to taking and posting pictures of the complete figure groups.

When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

If only I had the space Paul. My James Bond collection takes up to much room to have all my Action Force out! Perhaps I'll sell it all!

I could certainly have a battlefield littered with bodies! I don't think I could make that many figures stand up for long enough to take the pictures!
