Hey guys thought it would be fun for me to share with you guys how I become a 1/6 scale collector and I like to hear your stories.
It all started one day (week before Christmas week) where I decided to get a small figure around 6 to 7" figure for one of the Japanese anime I watch (Naruto) on Ebay....which I did bought some and then as I look for more I came across Kotobukiya and at the time, statue was fine for me I didn't need articulation....but what caught me was the Iron Man mk 7 ARTFX from Kotobukiya and of course I was late into this collecting game business, everywhere locally was sold out I called pretty much all of the stores within 25km away so I bought it off Ebay this was just before the week of Christmas., then the Boxing Week I decided to get myself another Kotobukiya figure The Dark Knight Rises ARTFX this time. I got it morning of Boxing day right when the store open and I got 20% off =) and at this time I realised I really like this hobby and I knew I'm gonna continue this hobby and went and got one glass display, set it up and put allt he figures I have in and wow my room just look so much more awesome, the obsession rised and the massive online search begin =) where I started to learn about some more company that makes statue I even back track video games collector edition that come with figure and was able to picked up some games collector edition my favourites are the assassin creed 3 and gears of war 3 statue bought them and finally BOOM!!!! started to see Hot Toys and I was just amazed how accurate, good qualities and insane details on Hot Toys figures have so I got myself one and my first Hot Toys 1/6 scale figure is Wolf predator and holy smoke was I amazed and now I can't stop collecting Hot Toys =) and that's how I become a 1/6 scale figure collector. How did you become a collector?
