Return of the Collector

Ever since I returned  from Hong Kong with 3 action figures, I've been quite agitated to get something more. I concluded that I should only collect those that will be a great asset and that it would liquidate easily. I started on the right track with Transformers since my old collections were easily sold off.

Something else caught my eyes and they were Star Wars Black Series 6 inch figures. I really like the articulation for these figures and since Hasbro Marvel Legends but this plastic cost a bomb. I was drawn when several shops were selling them at 20-25% of the retail price. That started my craving on the Star Wars collection. I made it a point to only get those that I like and that will attain the interest of future buyers.
The greatest thing about this toys are that they are packaged in a box rather that carded. This gave me the opportunity to play with them and return in back into the boxes for storage and valued sale in the future.

I've started pre-ordering some Transformers Masterpieces at pre-order prices. This is asset management in progress. LOL.
