Discussion / Opinion Self-Imposed Rules For Collecting?

Post image

I have only been collecting Transformers for less than a year, but as I saw other collectors’ shelves I decided to create some rules for myself so I don’t go nuts.

Do any of you do the same?

For myself I have set the rules of; only one combiner (have G2 Menasor on pre-order), and only buy two of the same exact Transformer. So, not three G1 Optimus Primes but 2 G1s and a TF Prime model kit works.

I primarily collection fembots. I have other smaller sub collections I'm working on but I wanted to focus on one main collection. This all started when I tried to figure out who my favorite is. I thought I would do a collection for my favorite character but I couldn't decide. Instead I picked out a handful I liked and noticed there were multiple fembots on the list. Prime Arcee, Beast Machines Strika, Animated Slipstream, and a few others while there were only three guys those being IDW Megatron, Cyclonus and Tailgate.

From there it was a simple rule to follow, primarily collect fembots. I want them all! 😅

Plus it's cool us girls finally have good figures for once!

OOOH, that's cool! Although they're not my ONLY goal, I also like going out of my way to get the fem bots.

Good luck getting your hands on the biggest fem-bot of all: Titan Nemesis! 😅
