Actionfigure mad's collection

[actionfigure mad]

A Brief History:

I first got into Doctor Who I think when I was about the age of 7 and it was Jon pertwees turn as the Doctor then in 1974, where it was televised on a Saturday evening after World of sport with Dickie Davis and crackerjack.
Well then there was not that much merchandise to buy as there is now some Dalpol I would imagine but I did not bother with it. I had the Tom baker figure with the Tardis and a K9 . and various Who Annuals

I have always liked Doctor Who and followed it now for 33 years I guess,and really got interested again when the tv series was launched with Christopher Ecclestone and David Tenant took as The Doctors, and since then I have bought as many of series 1 through to series 4 figures and my favourite series the Classics ,as I could and the box sets.Most of my figures are carded and displayed on racks but I also have a book shelf for loosee figures too
I used to collect Starwars action figures and ships and had over 300 in total all boxed but lost interest in them and sold them all to buy more Who figures I also have many who dvd's which I watch when I come home from a stressfull day at work. It is great to watch a dvd and then go and compare what the figure looks like compared to the reall character, I also have a large collection of Corgi classic comercial vehicles and Heavy Haulage vehicles
I have the current Build it wave of the Vespiform but as yet waiting for the age of steel to arrive,

Really good collection and godd army building you must have loads of money as i struggle to get 1 figure a month as i only £1 per week and im 13

[MarthaJonesFan]

Cor, that's one collection you've got there!

[actionfigure mad]

Thank you whatisthere and Martha. When I was 13 I didnt get much pocket money I did a paper round to buy things but now still get all my bills to pay etc but I manage to put a little aside to buy a few figures , sometimes I will win a good auction on Ebay where there are a few in a lot for little money to army build. But now I only buy things I really like not just because its a figure and just released and I must have it as room here is limited now so I have to be more choice and also get rid of some of my doubles

[drdrdrwho]

hang on why do you need more than 1 ood sigma/space pig?






and how do you get special acsess to make your own collection page I CANT SEEM TO GET MY OWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[actionfigure mad]

Is there a set rule that you dont have more than one of an alien ?after all the Ood are a herd species and space pigs well they get lonely on there own 3 little piggys went to market
And to be gain access to your own page you need to pay £10.00 or more if you like

It looks really good! How come you have Korwin?

[actionfigure mad]

I bought him off Ebay as a loose figure with various other figures. i hit on lucky with the vespiform and korwin bought both of them from same seller the Kowin was expensive though a good figure loose which stands well , the vespiform was bought ready built

[Beep]

[Chandra]

Great collection. Hate to be nosy, but how much did Korwin and the Vespiform cost you each? Thanks.
