He was my first alt. I'll admit that his bot form isn't that great but I didn't have another alt to compare it with so I was still quite impressed with it. I really love the car though, probably because I drive an acura.

Re: Do you sometimes buy just because...

To be honest, usually I talk myself out of buying things, and then regret it later. :-(

Re: Do you sometimes buy just because...

I haven't bought anything in ages and it sucks because so much stuff I really want is out but I can't find it at retail.

Re: Do you sometimes buy just because...

I find myself deciding do I really want this figure, will I want it later? How much money do I want to devote to TF buying... paying bills bites into the TF budget. I'm a completionist at heart, something I have to fight. It comes down to do I really like it?, will I regret not buying it? There are some tough choices out there. anyway ... ...

Re: Do you sometimes buy just because...

Yes, and the Movie line is a perfect example of it. I can't say that I really like any of the molds, but figured I might as well get them just in case I changed my mind later on. Plunking down money for the Premium versions for Leader Megs & Voyager Starscream over a year later was extremely hard to do, and I only did it for the sake of completion, not because I actually *wanted* the figures.

To a lesser degree, I guess the same can almost be said about Animated as well. For as much as I like the show and genuinely LOVE some of the molds, I still think the overall aesthetic has an overly 'kiddy' look to it and I somewhat *made* myself like this line.

Encore Ratchet & Ironhide and TFU Powerglide are also a couple of other recent examples, as will be TFU Galvatron & Acid Storm and any TF2 Movie figures that I may pick up.
