I did that with Red Sonja and I don't regret it. DC may dominate my collection, but I can have an "other" section I am content with.

I know what you mean. I find that the pieces that I purchase because of an appreciation for the craftmanship, rather than a love for the character, end up being the pieces that I sell the quickest to make room for characters that I love.

Can't blame you for that one. Stellar piece.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

+1 I love Thundercats, Transformers, GI Joe, He-Man
I will probably keep collecting these pieces because I grew up with these and have a strong feeling for them. I still have my old action figures etc.
I have gone as far as I want to go with DC characters which I also love but don't have that nostalgia like the others I named.

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

I think I'm definitely getting Juggy. I've been waiting at least 10 years for this. I'll find a way to pay for it. Just hoping that SS doesn't go batsh!t on the price.

What happens if you get scared half to death twice?

Domino because the base and head sculpt are spot on
Harley Quinn because they added Bud and Lou
Dejah because it continues the Dynamite collection with Red Sonja and hopefully one day SS releases a better 1/4 Vampirella...

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

This is a tough question to answer. I like to say I focus on the first part, but not all of the X-Men I want are getting made and the custom game is hit or miss. I have bought 3 statues that were outside my initial collecting focus, Gladiator Hulk, Kier (original) and recently Red Sonja. They all created a nice medieval fantasy theme together and if another comes in the same type of genre, I will get it if its amazing. This brings me to the 12 days, the new gladiator hulk will be the only one I may get, if the full reveal is great, the pricing isn't insane and I can sell my original gladiator hulk.
