Sort of like Fight Club. No one talks about it, but somehow people find out about it.

Correct. And then you have dumb people that are supposed to be keeping the groups secret go out and publicly post stuff they shouldn't be posting

Rule #1: NO Sideshow preorders. Must see in hand pictures from collectors. If I miss out I guess I miss out.
Honestly that’s my only rule. Everything else is to help my direction but not set in stone for me.

Stick to my "Last Five" that I have room for:
1. Bowen Taskmaster
2. Bowen Deadpool (action pose)
3. Gentle Giant Praetorian Guard
4. Kotobukiya Ukiyo-e Darth Maul (had him, regret selling lol)
5. Daredevil, but still on the fence between the new Sideshow and the Bowen gargoyle statue. So torn between "glossy vintage" and "modern tactical". Looking at Ebay, they'll probably both be about the same price.
Still have room for some more mini-busts on the bottom shelves. My "still need" list is:
1. Bowen Ultron
2. Gentle Giant brown Wolverine
3. Gentle Giant X-Force Deadpool
4. Gentle Giant Saruman
5. DC Deathstroke
6. Gentle Giant Anakin SDCC (with swords)
7. Gentle Giant Elite Clone
8. Gentle Giant Commander Gree
9. Gentle Giant Prototype Boba Fett
10. Gentle Giant Holiday Special Boba Fett
11. Gentle Giant Grievous
12. And, if I can ever find one, the Cobra Ninja Viper from Palisades' GI Joe line (Storm Shadow repaint, I think it was a Kay-Bee exclusive, very hard to find on Ebay)

Just cut back in general and make smarter decisions. I’ve gotten back into collecting game soundtracks and importing Megaman merchandise. Think I’ll be shifting my focus on that this year.

Transformers
80's properties.
Random Marvel / Cartoon characters I really like.
Pretty much the same as it's always been.
It's just that companies are now finally making statues that fit my rules.

I don’t care how pretty it is, only the following is even considered, not guaranteed:
1. Black Panther
2. Spider-Man
3. 1/4 X-Men in 70s or 90s (or close enough) costumes, a decent Gambit is an exception
4. If F4F finally decided to do a 1/4 Link
5. Maybe more 1/4 Batman
Miles Morales is my only PO right now, I’m ordering Magneto maquette at some point and I’m definitely in for Avengers Assemble Black Panther and new Spider-Man PF. I’m interested in the Gambit that was hinted at but actually ordering depends on how he looks and who knows when we’ll actually see anything from that.
