Hi, I just found this place. As I just found out about 1/6 figures recently. One could say I have a neck for picking up the most expensive hobbies.
It's hard to tell, which is the most expensive hobby of mine, as I'm into
RC Trucks, Lego, and now 1/6 figures.
Technically RC trucks are the most expensive, as you can easily spend $1000 before you have a basic working model. But I was always able to spread out new purchases as far as years. It's the same with Legos I go on a shopping spree once a year buy a few things then I don't even look at new stuff for months.
Not with figures however. I keep checking my favored shops at least once a week to see what's new. And the desire is often too big to pass on things.
And it's not even like I'm buying everything that catches my eye, if I did that I'd be broke already. Or more broke rather.
I'm still figuring things out, and early on I bought a bunch of separate items instead of full figures, and now I ended up with a bunch of figures with no shoes. One can get all kinds of clothes for figures but footwear is almost non-existent.
A big problem for me is that I'm located in Eastern Europe, so the abundant selection in the US is not relevant to me. Also living standards are much worse here, so are the salaries so this stuff is doubly expensive to me. So I'm always on the lookout for bargains. Unfortunately sideshow / hot toys figures are almost always above my pain threshold price wise. So they'd have to be something extraordinary to spend that much on a figure. Like the Wonder Woman Golden Armor Deluxe figure which I have on order right now.
OK, enough rambling, I could go on forever.
