I wanted to but, my favorite character Guile didn't turn out the way I pictured him. So, I will not be collecting any of them.

Have three at this moment excl vega, excl cammy and excl bison who are my favourites. Black Chun is ordered. From the older ones I only care for an Akuma, but its out my price range. I will probably not buy sagat, don't care for the character really. But a nice Blanka or Viper I'll definitely buy. So not collecting the whole line, only the ones I care for

Don't have the room - or the cash! - to collect them all but currently have both Bisons (EX and regular) and (regular) Ken. (Bought Guile and Cammy back along, too, but ended up having to return them and I can't really be bothered to get either one again ).

Going forward I have blue and red Chun on pre-order and Sagat will be a must-buy; after that it will all depend on which characters get released and whether I have the space to accommodate them.

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

You're right guys collecting this line is so expensive, it misses me Akuma, Shin Akuma, GRN Vega and Ken Ex to have the whole line but I'll have to wait several months to get them

Well patience is a must in this hobby

I would love to start up with this line but being so late in the game and seeing the second market values of the statues, I would be crazy to pay those prices.

I love that statues are limited but it really stinks to have no chance in completing the line, unless I sell my car lol.

My first SF PF arrived yesterday. It is Vega the normal version. I payied 100 UK pounds for it because it had a broken ponytail. Fortunatelly the break was clean and there were no tiny missing bits so it was a very easy repair. I was always and will always admire the collection of others that are into this line, but if you are not lucky enough to pay retail price for statues like Akuma, Ruy and the rest that followed the high path, then I do not believe that a statue besides Doom PF for 1/4 scale is worth 1000$, even for Doom PF I still find it a lot to pay more than 700-800$.

PS: It is my personal opinion no mean to judge anyone that has the wallet and the passion to spend that amount of money for his hobby.

I've collected smaller scales and Chun Li will be my first PF. Had I have known about Cammy PF when it came out I would have bought her.
