I am going to say my Star Wars "Toy Center" shelf talker. I've always had a passion for collecting the toys of my childhood but never really though I'd have an interest in store displays. Now I can think of a few I'd like.

Mego wise, it's Superheroes. I really didn't start out to be a Superhero collector. And then I joined this forum called Mego Museum, and well...
For dolls, American Girl and Springfield Collection.

Starsky and Hutch. I liked the show alot but never thought I would add them to my collection.

There's nothing toy wise I can say that I didn't think I would come by, that I wanted, that I couldn't find. I can say that there are 2 records I thought I would never own...one is a Beatles Butcher Sleeve and the Let It Be Box that came out in '69/'70. I actually found them within weeks of each other on Ebay a few years back. Beatle Butcher was in a lot of Beatles records. It's still pasted over, and until I find someone to peel it professionally it will stay as a pasted over Butcher Sleeve.

And because of all their tears,
Their eyes can't hope to see
The beauty that surrounds them
Isn't it a pity".

non mego, i never thought i would have a jeannie bottle,a gilligans radio and twilight zone mystic seer.i would have
loved this stuff more when i was a kid,but i still love it today.
I have never said never to any collectible. There are some that I never pushed to get but eventually I consider almost anything.
"Procrastination is the art of planning for tomorrow."
A Dave Seville figure from Alvin and the Chipmunks. I was after a Mego Starsky and he was in the lot with him.
Never thought I would ever own Dinah Mite and any 3-3/4" figures until obsession got the best of me.
Common sense is not that common.
Egads. I just got a Dral outfiit top in the mail... Lord help me I'm obsessed with piecing one together now.
Mego-wise, Mr. Mxyzptlk. I swore to myself I would complete the rest of the WGSH line and leave this spot blank, such was my contempt for the figure, and I even used a few loose outfits as parts for custom figures over the years... then I got a pretty minty T2 one in a lot buy. I'm embarrassed to admit I still need 3/4ths of the Titans, an Isis, and some odds and ends, etc to finish the WGSH - but there Mxy is. Taunting me.
I never thought I'd get into Space:1999 either. But as soon as I find a Carter helmet and a Koenig top, my loose set will be pretty much complete. I even recently put back together a few of the CTVT figures, and I snag palitoy boot bodies when they come up for extra crew.
Looking for Tong body style LHT/Australian release Ninjas of any color, and here's :::My Expansive Wants List::: WARNING: I am medical malady boy, and have recently proven to be chronic iffy-to-negligible-trader-response-guy. Like After School Special worthy. This is my self-imposed Scarlet Letter.
the first version of mxy is cool. He looks pretty surly, really.
I never really thought I would get into the Heroes of the Revolution. Now I am thinking they have a sort of charm about them.
