Collection
- About Me :
I'm a massive geek, but not a huge collector - due largely to lack of funds (the life of a post-graduate student is hard), an utter lack of ability when it comes to painting, and a general lack of interest in non-interactive things.
As such, I tend to collect poseable figures rather than models or statues, though I do occasionally buy models to build (and then leave unpainted), and cheap non-poseable figures (e.g. gashapon).
When I do buy such items, they will always be from series I love. My main collection resides in Patlabor figures - aside from a couple of Ingram models (hard plastic and vinyl), I've a hoard of gashapon, and more recently have started acquiring the Revoltech series. I love the movie-version Ingram 1, and the fantastic Helldiver.
Sadly, my taste in anime generally veers away from mech-dominated series, so my collection has otherwise been fairly limited. Aside from a smattering characters from other series (gashapon based on the original Gunbuster, on Fire Emblem, and on various Capcom / SNK fighters), that's pretty much it!
