Those tricky last few

[gung-hoeddie]

i've around 500 figures on display at the moment i think.

[Sundance]

bugger me sideways, i don't even have 100!

38 Joes, 16 Cobras, 28 AF, 6 The Enemy.

[Chopper]

Crikey dick. I'm around 200 now I think. Best check. Squuuaaaaaadddddd. SHUN!!!!

a sneak preview of some of the night force stuff, i've a bit more on it's way.

Now that's what I'm talking about! Nice idea to put the Little Bird chopper behind them Eddie. Works really well. I think today my favorites are NF Outback, NF Crazylegs and NF Falcon. Although NF Repeater is a very cool repaint.

Eddie, what kick started you into collecting a year ago then? It must have been something pretty big for you to attack this hobby in such a ferocious way!?! I started collecting Star Wars figures in 1998 and moved on to Action Force in the early 2000s I still haven't got anywhere near as much as you!

Well i was talking to Annie one day about childhood toys and i mentioned action force and how much i missed them, it was on Annie's birthday and i had given her some prezzie's, Annie then gave me a present containing 5 action force figures as a suprise....and so it began, it's something i had thought about for years but had not had the motivation to actually start, i have no idea where it'll end up.

[Chopper]

That's what I call motivation. Nice pic too, never even looked at Night Force before. I really should get one of those 500's.

Someone once said to me "If you are serious about collecting Star Wars figures, get one of each of them in any condition. Then you can relax and upgrade each one as you go" I'm not sure if that is good advice or not. I do know that I sometimes get fixated on a particular figure I want and it becomes a lust for the prize! I end up paying too much for it just because it's on my mind.
The same guy told me not to even start an Action Force collection "There's too many in the range, you'll never get anywhere with it". I'm not sure if that's good advice for someone like me who is a frustrated completist really, but it would have been funny if you had been there Eddie! Over 500 figures later, who said it's not worth it! Ha!

This is an interesting thread for me Chopper because I don't think I can see an end to my collection at the moment. I keep changing my mind on what I like and what I don't!

[gung-hoeddie]

i know exactly what your saying there shauny.

Pretty damn close mate, but I don't think a 100% Blades exists still.
