Its good to see everyone still passionate about this hobby. Not everyone has the same taste in figures. I don't care for the 25th stuff, there is alot of o-ring stuff I dispise too. For financial reasons I have had to thin out my collection recently, what do I keep - my "vintage" figures. In the original line there is alot of crap too, and I have been vocal about those. I don't care for the relaunched figures of the late 90s, early 00s either. I think their skin is way to pale, I didn't need new kit-bashed characters or repaints of figures I already own. The new sculpt o-ring line (I think this is what G calls the bastard line) is not for me either. I know I am going out on a limb here buy I hate Cross Hair - he can't hold his weapons either. When I do get to buy a figure for myself it is pre-1990 - that is what I love, it is a actual "collectors item" NONE of the post 1994 stuff are, except maybe the exclusives and 97, 98 figures, which I do own a few of.
Passion is good, dialogue & defense of your taste in figures is fun. I would rather you be collecting 25th than not collecting at all, but I will still poke fun of them. As far as comments on pictures, I love them - good or bad!!! If you don't like a figure I post, take a crack, IT IS FUN! The whole reason I come to this site is for fun, to releave stress and go back to a better time!
