Re: what other toys do you collect?
The only other toys that I really collect are Transformers, by Hasbro, Takara (and whoever else makes them).
Like I said in another post in the last year I have bought enough transformers of all sizes to fill more than 6 - 60 gallon storage boxes.
I collect all vintages, although I would generally prefer a 1980's G1 Remake new in box over an original 1980's toy.
The best recent toyline for Transformers was Cybertron (although classics came close) as many of the toys in that line were given a lot of thought when it came down to their designs, specifically for transformations and over-all looks. The movie toys are almost all crap, with the exception of the few Cybertron toys that were rebadged as movie toys.
The new Universe toys look pretty decent, but I haven't yet picked up any of them to tell for myself.

too many to name right now, but I'm starting to limit my future purchase to only things I will display.

Re: what other toys do you collect?
I started out with Kidrobot stuff. Mainly dunnies, but I've since progressed to loving the labbits and Menthol Mongers. Lately though, I've felt a lot of KR stuff has been just okay, and way too pricey. My #1 company is Jamungo. From there it is hit or miss. I like Muttpop and some of the Strangeco stuff. As for artists that I collect, I'd say Kozik, Horvath, McPherson, and Ledbetter. Everything else I only buy if I really like it. There's just too much out there to keep up with everything. So I have to be kinda picky. Now, if (that's a massive if) I ever have a 6-7 figure income, I'll buy as much as possible!!!!

Re: what other toys do you collect?
To me all that kid robot stuff looks all the same and really how much of that stuff can you own before people feel like they walked onto the 40 year old virgin set.
For me Jamungo is it really for vinyl stuff. The only company that caught my eye and that has made it fun collecting.
As for other stuff I do like a godzilla figure here and there, anything Misfits related, sideshow has some wicked stuff every now and then.
But for the most part Jamungo is the only one for me.

Re: what other toys do you collect?
Yup....never been a big collector of KR merchandise....my collecting is kinda eclectic with no real unity. I have a few themes which I try and stick to but some categories are pretty vague....
A bit of a random selection:
Cosmouse
Itokin Park - Nano
Skwak - Maniac
Jim Woodring
Mr Clement - Petit Lapin
Kinsey Series
A lil photo story using Machinen Krieger Kubricks and a custom micromachines....
And finally these guys....Takashi Murakami - Strange Melting Dobs
....just managed to pick up the fourth and final one of these from Japan

Re: what other toys do you collect?
I'm partial to Horvath's Flatwoods Monster and Mothman since they have the local tie. I don't have all the colorways and am thinking of just going to whittle down to GID on those. I'll probably keep the red/green colorways on the FWM.
I like Jermaine's stuff..Dero, Squire, Veil.
Kinda hung up on Michael Motorcycle's stuff too. Just got his Dolbee. Cute lil bugger.
And, of course, Jamungo.

Re: what other toys do you collect?
I'm phasing out my western toys and leaning more towards Japanese vinyl and Kaiju. I am really bad with mini-figs so I am selectively keeping the ones I love the most. The dunnys are the first to go in our collection. We are trimming down our 8 inchers.
We were getting bored with it and the QC was always an issue which was disheartening. I am glad our interests are changing as it brought back the fun in collecting and we don't have to be completist either which is great for our wallets. We just collect what we like!
