Just starting to collect TFs, any thoughts?

Hey urban-samurai,

I had started seriously collecting recently too (about 2-3 months ago)! I had spent about $ 522.00 so far!

You'll probably find that certain lines interest you more than others.

Many collectors love the Alternators line, but I avoid it completely. Many avoid the Titanium 3" line, but I love it completely!

That's ok... i have spent 400 this month on tfs.

I don't know how much my tfs worth now, but I like them, not planning to sell or something.

I noticed the pic of you latest haul Urban.....you may be a little disappointed with titanium megatron but you can't go wrong with anything from the classics line (get as many as possible). Alternators are fun too for older collectors and I like what I've seen in the movie line thus far however the deluxes seem rushed and each one has its obvious downsides but overall it looks promising.

I'm going to try not to visit Metrotown this week Haha!! I can't freaking help but visit all the stores there that will possibly help add to my collection. But in 3 days, I spent a bit over $300!! Yikes! I know some have spent more but who would've known that it'd be so insanely addictive.

But at least I told myself that if I can't find what I'm looking for, I'm going to just not care and pretend it doesn't exist. Otherwise I'll end up going on bidding wars on eBay which I don't wanna do. Its only really 10 days before the movie toys are officially released so I'm gonna try not to spend until then cuz the Leader and Voyager class movie TFs haven't been released here yet.

I'll see you guys at TRU Lansdowne at 9am in the morning

forget all the new stuff, collect some G1 itself!!!

Building a g1 collection is super fun although indeed super addictive. I just got into mib collecting (with box)...that was a smart move for my wallet.
