Ive got 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6, 1/7, 1/8. 1/4 is my favorite size. The size is impressive all by itself. I find that with the smaller statues you tend to set them closer together and more fit on a shelf- but then collections start looking cluttered.

I prefer 1/4 scale now. All of my anime statues are 1/6 scale, which is fine, but 1/4 scale is where it's at for me. I will have a few 1/6 scale statues I won't part with, but for the most part I feel like I'm ready to sell off the smaller stuff I'm not really interested in. I will have a couple of 1/3 statues eventually, whenever the PCS Chun Li's come out.

I have everything from 5 inch pieces to 26 inch with every scale in between. Having said that 1/6 is definitely my preferred scale. Not sure if it just happens to be that my more favored characters ended up in that scale, or if it's the scale itself, but it's far and away my preference.

Again this is more of a case to case basis, but my least favorite pieces are the largest ones I have in 1/4 scale. Not that I think they are bad, or that I don't like them, but if I were to rate my entire collection from favorite to least favorite the bottom tier is all my 1/4 stuff unfortunately.

I try to avoid 1/4 scale unless it's an absolute must have where it's the first and only time said character is being made, or if all other options for said character are total crap.

I started out collecting 1/6 scale Bowens and moved to 1/4 scale Sideshow. I like the 1/4 scale because of the details. But like all collectors, the realization of space is hitting me. It's not just the display space, but also the storage space. I'm going to have to be more selective of what I buy.
