For me, I'm budgeting myself to definitely get
-Animated Leader Megs
-Universe Octane and Onslaught

then probably take my time, and choose the best (closest to scale) Autobot lineup. No need for Supreme Prime.

Encore Sky Linx, Encore Omega Supreme, Universe Octane and Onslaught, Animated Leaders, Classics, MP-07, and maybe some other animated figs.

This prompted me to add up everything I've spent since I got back into collecting around this time last year and it averaged out to about 250.00 a month. Of course I was playing catch up and starting form scratch, but I really didn't it would be that high. This year will probably be about the same if not more.

It's the third Masterpiece this year for me and it's only February... I'm also buying a house just so I can put up display shelves for my collection. 15% Deposit + Transformers = well over £25,000. Can anyone beat that?

Unless the house is only for your Transformers, it doesn't really count as part of your Transformers budget

I'm only buying it so I can put some display shelves up for them. Oh, obviously I'll have to live in it to be close to them but that's just a perk

Yes yes it does.

However it seems by budget is low compared to others. Oh well. Of to work my butt off to make enough money to continue in this hobby.

I agree, were it not for different waves I'd never have time to save cash.

My budget is lower, only plan to spend about 200 if that but I don't even have a job so I can't even afford that.

At the start of January I made myself a nice little spreadsheet with everything I was going to get all planned out, came to about US$2000.

Then I found a (reasonably) well priced Fort Max on ebay........
