Hot toys joker v1. Even without the dx coming, all I'm using from the figure is the gloves, waistcoat and pants. Which I could have bought way cheaper parted out vs a full figure.

 

[uscmhicks]

you dont regrett selling your Abe Sapien Maquette ?

that statue is f#@ing awesome !

Yeah , I do actually. Got it really cheap too. Forgot about that.
I had no room for it though and it didn't fit in with it being 1/3 and nearly everything else being lifesize or 1/4.
Give us a 1/4 abe sideshow.

A few star wars koto bits n bobs and my medicom boba fett cos i just cant make him look decent, his legs look all squiffy. The medicom jango looks good though i love that fig.

Hot Toys Deunan Knute for me. It's a great looking figure, but I don't have any real connection with it and that seems to make a real difference with me. I had been oogling it for a while, and my friend was questioning me about it the whole time I was considering the purchase. He knew I had never watched the movies or anything, but I insisted I liked the costume design enough to compensate for that. Anyway, once I got her, I broke the wrist putting her together, and that majorly soured the experience with me. After 4 months of emailing hot toys, I finally got a replacement peg and fixed her. And you know what? I still don't feel much for it. I mean, yeah, it's still a nice figure, but I just don't connect with it. I feel more interested in my SSC Lara even though I've never played Tomb Raider. And ultimately, Deunan doesn't really fit into my collection of all SW and Indy.

So I've been considering selling Deunan.

PF Grievous. I bought it because at the time I was picking up all the other Star Wars PF's, so the gotta get 'em all craze got into me and I thought I'd be a SW PF completist, then I decided not to. Now he takes up too much space, there are other things I'd rather put there.

The other is the Gentle Giant Obi-Wan in Clone Armor (AKA Ugly-Wan). Got that one despite the horrid sculpt because having him in the armor was cool. Then Sideshow did theirs and I liked it more.

Finally the London After Midnight color figure. I got it for an excellent price (only 100 bucks) but in retrospect I would have preferred to spend extra and get the SSE version, and I wish I had Wolfman instead of LAM. But its not a bad figure and I'm not unhappy with it, so I guess I only quasi-regret it.

Endor Soldier 3 pack, Snowbunny Padme, SDCC Hellboy...a few more but it hurts to think of the money lost.

 

[Bannister]

Yes, Scarface 1:1 bust....because it led me to meeting Pam...

It led to such a great chat though.

 

[a-dev]

In my entire collection theres probably loads but out of just my 1/6ths-

Hot Toys AvP:R warrior alien (lacks the cool factor of Wolf, although I did get my only 1/6th facehugger with it)

Hot Toys Aliens warrior (innaccuracy, breakages&flaking paint)

Hot toys Iron Man mark III (kinda sorta, in that I don't really love the film, wasn't really an Iron Man fan to begin with and only need the figure because I'm building a superhero collection...is this too much to put in brackets?)

Tony Stark suit (by extension, Tony stark is a less loved figure in my collection)

 

[KitFisto]

Is there an option for "all of them"??

 

[azurepred]

CSC Green Vega Ex, horrible paint app all together on these, now he just sits in a box and for such a limited piece, theres relatively no demand for him

 

[BadMoon]

Is there an option for "all of them"??

Damn Kit! You regret buying it all?

 

[Atheris]

Im surprised no one mentioned the 1:1 Iron man bust yet. I can never forgive myself for buying that POS...I lost $110 just buying it and returning it for a refund. The exchange rate went up in that 3 week period enough for me to lose $110 for no reason...and in the end I still got nothing.

The two Hot Toys Jokers that I bought from "Dollyplanet." Because they stole my money and never delivered on my figures, mostly.

That's kind of how I felt with Lara Croft and Leon Kennedy.

I was familiar with the characters of course, but I hadn't been a big Tomb Raider or Resident Evil fan and just couldn't get any attachment to the figures beyond originally liking how they looked. Once I got them, I was of course disappointed with Lara and she didn't last long...but Leon was awesome for all his gear and a great figure.

Just overall,I wasn't attached to Leon, so off he went.

I suggest you sell Deunan...you really won't miss her...Leon was an awesome figure, but I don't miss him.

My spare marmit stormtrooper cause I have two now. And prolly my marmit boba fett. Thought I was going to pose em with a hurricane custom vader, but I sort of given up on that due to circumstances

 

[The Ween]

None of my recent things I regret, but I have boxes and boxes and boxes of action figures and other "collectibles" that I wish I had the money back that I spent on them.
