>>6482351I started with the first wave of Halo sets, originally under the label Halo Wars as they were a tie-in with the game being released at the same time. Funnily enough I've never played Halo Wars, RTS on consoles doesn't work for me but I'm quite into the lore and all the games before 343 took over.
I grew up with Lego and army men and was never into action figures but when Mega produced something that meshed these things together as well as a game universe I enjoyed it was a done deal. I stayed with them through the early sets with plenty of teething troubles (loose parts, very limited weapon selection, the same Spartan Mk-IVs in every set) and they steadily improved in all areas and then some.
When CoD first hit the shelves I wasn't really interested at first, didn't care for the games and even less for the fanbase but on a whim I got a couple of the small cheap sets to try them out. They persuaded me to accept them as awesome generic modern warfare guys (quasi-Battlefield even with all the vehicle sets) and I've collected a bunch of them as well. I did eventually warm up to the first Black Ops and greatly appreciate the many ways Mega has brought characters from that game to life, hoping hard that CoD Heroes will finally show up here so I can get that third Frank Woods.
AssCreed didn't sell itself to me very well but I got a couple little sets as curiosities, the one with the cannon in particular to indulge my weakness for field artillery. TMNT has been entirely clearance impulse buys, more for the accessories than for the figs. Destiny doesn't appeal to me at all though if I find something on the cheap I might get it just cuz.
