I suppose I kinda collect toys of things I like in general. I used to collect Godzilla and other kaiju, but now I've whittled it down to just the ones I like. I'll probably get a new Godzilla for the new movie, otherwise I'm only getting some new figures if Bandai starts putting out new 6 inch versions of '60s kaiju. It seems I have a lot of '70s kaiju. Bandai were on a '70s kick there in the early to mid-aughts, but the '60s has always been my favorite. When I get a '60s King Ghidorah and Rodan I'm throwing those Heisei and Final Wars figures out! (okay, not really... maybe)
... of course, one day I may splurge on a Marmit or Marusan or M1. To tell you the truth, now that I'm older I prefer toys that look like toys, and seeing those big, chunky, over-colorful Godzillas makes my heart all a flutter.
Otherwise, I just get a toy to represent something I like. I have a couple of Popeyes, three Hellboys, a Groucho Marx figurine, little Scrooge McDuck statue, ect. Not looking for any more of those to become their own collection.
Oh, I am currently getting Funko Pop! vinyl figures of my fav Adventure Time characters. There's that.
