The Scarlet Spider Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Anyone have a wide encompassing line that they like besides minimates? I've been looking at s h figuarts and hot toys. They both seem pretty decent. I wish figuarts had more marvel and DC stuff as their price point is a little easier for me. How do both these lines hold up? Do either of them survive actually being played with? I'm thinking about jumping the minimate ship to start another collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I mean... Lego. Lego is mine. But I do like Figuarts Kaiju line. If I had the money I'd jump onto that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figuarts definitely looks interesting though but it's expensive and they only really focus on the MCU for marvel Edited September 19, 2017 by The Scarlet Spider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd be easier to. However I find myself not even really looking forward to the Black Cat and Scarlet Spider release for some reason. When I'm not pumped for 2 of my favorite characters in what should be my favorite toy line it's just alarming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scarlet Spider Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 And to clarify @buttheadsmate I don't want to give up Mates completely but I'm starting to get collector's fatigue Right now and want to pick something else up.

MisterPL Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Been there. I hit a looooong dry spell and started picking up Star Wars Fighter Pods. I felt like I was cheating on Minimates. It was awful. I know what you mean about collecting an inclusive line, though. Aside from Funko 4" figures I can't think of too many affordably priced toy lines with such property breadth.

Smashmaster12 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Minimates will always be my top priority, but I also play Heroclix on the side. It's a tabletop game where the pieces are small figures based on Marvel, DC, TMNT, Star Trek, and sometimes some other pieces of media. Not really a toy line, but it's been pretty inclusive in terms of the Marvel and DC stuff. I also really like Good Smile Company's Nendoroid series, but they're usually more based on anime and video games as opposed to comics. There's some Marvel and DC figures, though.

The Scarlet Spider Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 @MisterPL i don't mind the price too much as long as it has what I'm looking for. With TRU set to have some closings and me living in a small town minimate exclusives will probably become more expensive for me to pick up anyway so I'm thinking about just picking up legends. I want to stick to mates since they're what really got me collecting but its become kinda stressful to collect them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 My motto's always been that if it's more frustrating than fun, it's time to look elsewhere. I hope you find something else that's more enjoyable. As a fan of 4" figures, I just started collecting Funko's Batman '66 line but the chase figures are killing me. I haven't even bothered opening them in anticipation of this line becoming such a chore that I dump in on eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
