What is the first thing you think of when you her of someone collecting figures? Do you think of a 30 year old nerd that still lives in his mother's basement? Well, that was my perception on it before I started looking on the net. I was bored so I started searching the net. I was watching G4 and they were showing the Comic Con pre show or somthin and they were talking about collecting toys and models. These dudes were seriously into it and were giving tips to people and everything. I started to think to myself. "Hmmmm, I wander what kind of models do they have for anime shows. So I looked up some of my favorite animes (Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Bleach, etc.) Soon I started think to myself, this is kinda cool. The point that I'm trying to get to is what is you guys take on collecting models. Waste of money or something worth the money?
Personally I could see myself doing it actually. The only problems is the price of these things. For example, I was looking up some Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann models and I happened to find a Kamina model (favorite character XD). http://www.hobbyfan.com/product_info.php?cPath=635&products_id=6507&name=Tengen+Toppa+Gurren+Lagann&title=Tengen+Toppa+Gurren+Lagann+-+1%2F8+Kamina+PVC+Figure+-+Eye+Up I mean it's a really cool model of him but it's kinda pricey. I mean, it's more than I would spend on a video game. I don't see how these guys that collect on a regular basis can do it.
