>>8062016>Spending $1,000 on 5 action figuresI know us collectors are desperate at times but sometimes you really need to take a step back and ask yourself if a 6-inch action figure is really worth $200 lmao.
>>8060922>>8061997Honestly I'm not surprised that people actually spent that much. Lots of Jap figure collectors have been brainwashed over the last couple of years with steadily raising prices to think that 8k-10k yen is a normal price for a 6-inch action figure, when most of these figures were $30-$50 less than a decade ago and actually came with more stuff.
Couple this with being a die-hard fan of a franchise, and you get people who aren't afraid of spending $300+ aftermarket to get a toy to complete their set.
It isn't much different than those collectors who spend thousands of dollars on huge overpriced polystone statues.
