I thought it was about time I posted my collection. I've been a fan for as long as I can remember, but I started to collect classics in 2012, after grabbing an RTS Jazz and not knowing when to stop. I mainly collect CHUG and Beast Wars, show characters only, and I'm a stickler for trying to keep characters in the right scale. I prefer to avoid using 3P products where possible, not because I'm against it, or can't afford it, I just feel that they're not legitimate product and that's just not for me (though you may notice iGear Rager is preferred over combiner wars huffer here.)
I'm usually a model builder by hobby, so where I don't feel a character is quite up to show accuracy standard, I add reprolabels, a little lick of paint or some simple physical modding myself, but nothing too drastic.
I arrange my shelves by seasons of the show the characters appeared in most prevalently, mostly anyway. Once it gets to season 3 Decepticons, everything is mushed up (I'm sure other people have the same problem).
