    How many multiples do you own of your fav figures ?

    How many multiples do you own of your fav figures ?

    At the hight of my collecting, I owned quite a few multiples (loose) of my fav figures.
    Specifically the Star Trek crew.

    I used to own 5 loose sets of the crew in various conditions ......

    1 set was for sitting by my computer and fiddling with (condition, played with)

    1 set was an absolutely mint complete loose set

    3 sets were in various levels of condition ...
    My ongoing project was slowing making these figures mint and complete each figure and set at a time.

    I never owned loose multiples of any other Mego lines -- not counting cared/boxed figures and loose figures

    What about you ?

      Sadly, I yearn for collections like those with 20+ Spidermans, but I've only got a couple of Kirks (T1 and T2..) and Klingons to show off the custom Dunsel outfits.

              I have 2 Ziras (after the torso cracked and I had to get another one). I'm about to get another Uhura (thanks to Dumbldor) b/c my Uhura got a broken forearm in an epic Star Trek vs. POTA capture yesterday (Noe' was over). I have a few duplicates of other toys that are non-Mego. (Teddy Ruxpin, Hush Lil' Baby, Remco Mimi, Charlie's Angels, GIJoe).

                Not sure, because I don't keep a lot of my spares assembled. I usually end up with them from buying lots or my inability to resist Megos in the Wild. When I end up with a nice duplicate costume, head, etc, I compare it with what's already on my shelf and use the one that is nicer, replace repro parts, etc. The lesser piece ends up in my bag of custom fodder, trade stuff, or if it's common, on the pile that I use to make gifts for my nephew and cousin.
                I recently decided to upgrade my Superman, seeing that I had several spare suits. So I washed them all and am in the process of deciding which one is nicest. I know I have extra heads and boots, so I'll probably have a T2 one for my shelf, a T1 just for the fun of it, plus one to sell or give as a gift.
                And then there's my Dinahs. I currently have 12 regular loose Dinah Mites displayed, in original and custom outfits. I also have one boxed Peace Belt, one loose Peace Belt, one boxed African American and one loose, 1 Rood Supergirl, and a Health Spa Dinah. I'm always buying more of those, and I currently have a few in my customs box, waiting for outfits or rerooted hair.

                  Who here had that photo of a giagantic pile of Hulks the last time this question was raised?

                  Myself I am not a multiples collector - 2 spideys 2 hulks and 3 batmen (only 2 are really multiples since 2 are t2 and the other is a T1 RC) - i usually have multiples of kirk spock and mccoy (currently true) but that is never intentional.

                    Probably Shanester, if he's still around.

                      I have about 10 or 12 Cornelius/Galen figures. I just can't not buy him when one crosses my path at a good price.

                          I don't know where he's been but Glenn Miller is the guy to see when you're talking Circle/Diamond Suits. He was snatching them up like candy around about the time I was on my RMR quest. (of which, I now have about 4 but at one time 8).

                          I am big on variations, I have quite a few RCB's in near mint condition with different suit variations. And I've recently acquired more Supermen than I really wanted just to get some nice variations (large S, FF, Stirrups Blue, Stirrups Purple, Nylon short footies, Type 2) I have some extra that I will likely put up or if someone needs one. lmk. (I do have an extra FF but was checking value because I don't see them much).

                            I have dupes of some but mostly for variation reasons - T1, T2, FFer's, vinyl cape, circle suit, etc, although I'm sure not to the extent of Hobub. I'm looking for a large S Supes, a nice purple suit Supes and a plastic snap Robin.

                            I would like to get more Supermans, Batmans and Robins just because they look so cool. Plus I need a mint Captain America.

                            I think I have maybe 3 or 4 T2 Mxys for some strange reason and I have 3 POTA Astronauts. That's about it.
