try your luck and see if you can find a completed Parralax. One of the DC lines had a collect-a-part set where each toy has part of the completed unit.

On that note, I have a Sentinel and Galactus figure collected from compiled parts. It's really the only reason I bought most of those sets since I wouldn't otherwise have bothered with Dr. Strange or Black Panther.

The other 'random' figure would be a transforming Guymalef[sic] from Escaflowne. Transforms from Escaflowne to a dragon. Saw it and had to have it.

For me it was the 12 inch Star Sheriff Jiban figure from the Tokosatsu Metal Hero series. I was casually surfing Ebay a few years back and came across this awesome figure from the 80's mint in box. It has electronic sounds and flashing eyes and tech detail, and has lots of chrome armor and a huge bazooka-like rifle. I could not resist.

Since it was made by Bandai and engineered along the same lines, I display it on my Joukuu B-Faito (Beetleborgs in the U.S.) shelf next to the other "12 figures.

Honestly, many of the things I'd be posting about in a thread like this are things that I barely even know the names of because they were impulse buys from a local hobby shop that don't have very much (if any) English writing on the boxes. In light of that, as well as my own laziness over the years to actually find out wtf I've bought in respectable detail, I "should" be including pics in my said post.

However in place of that (aka, getting back to my laziness), I'm just gonna say that one of em is a pink haired anime girl named Akira who's sitting on my computer monitor, and that another one is a shiny red mecha (possibly from some incarnation of the Brave series) that's got a really cool shield with the hilt of a sword sticking out of it.

... getting to stuff I actually know about, Reboot's Hexadecimal probably counts (although I'd like to get Hack, Slash, & Capacitor some day), and I guess so does the Ben10 Hyperalien Highbreed Vinyl figure. I bought one of em for my cousin, and then a week later decided to nab one for myself couse TRU had em on clearance for 12 bucks.

I bought a couple of my favorites from the MOTU line: He-Man, Skeletor, and Trap-Jaw.

At some point I will own a Lion Force Volton.

I try to keep my money focused on TF's as much as possible. If I start getting into other stuff, I will be in trouble.

Why not?
I just hope this is not a deserted board.

Y'know, when it comes to Iron Man toys I'm like: " Yeah it's Iron man, he's cool, but do I really want him?" then I get him and I'm like: "Man, this Iron Man toy is really cool!" That one looks like a lot of fun.

A few more that I don't collect are Bakugan. I bought the red one because it resembles my HMW character Critter, I even stuck a reprolabels Decepticon symbol on him . I did get a few others and I use them as magnets now.

You know... Cyberverse figures... Cybertronian setting... The Autobots must fight an army of Decepticon drones...
Time to army built some bootleg Bakugan!

Donkeys' years ago, maybe still in the 80's there was a "Rand" (I think) Robotech doll (Oops, I mean ACTION FIGURE) that I bought with my pocket money. He was a Cyclone Bike rider, and I assumed I would be able to find a Cyclone Bike to buy as well. Didn't happen.Pissed off, I painted him Silver, put him on a horse and had him lead my StarWars Doll (oops I mean ACTION FIGURE) army on raids against my Castle Greyskull (Counted as Jabbas Palace).

I think I buried that Rand somewhere in the garden.
