I looked through some of the old posts on here and I see that some of us have a specialty toyline outside of Transformers. I figure if I had an enquiry about that line I'd talk to that person about it.
Phil has Star Wars, Karl has Gundam, Shockprowl has DC/Marvel, Ralph and Paul C have Doctor Who etc.
Mine's Ninja Turtles.
Anyone else have a second specialty line?

Wouldn't say I was particularly well-versed in the area of Gundam. I know as much as you can't help picking up when you have an interest in Japanese mecha shows in general, but it is not really developed enough to be considered a speciality. In terms of toylines outside of Transformers I'd have said that my specialist subjects would be SDF Macross and Genesis Climber Mospeada, with the resulting overlap into Robotech stuff. Karl |

I don't actively collect other toylines other than Transformers. I lack the space and cash.

Sorry dudes. I know I'd still talk to you about Doctor Who stuff in general, Ralph. You seem to know most stuff  |

I'm more Marvel than DC. Into Marvel quite alot these days.
I hear Tomo does quite a good line in rough shag.

Tomo? Perhaps I should have said Marvel/DC in that order  ===KEN |

I reckon I can out DW merchandise either of the other two. Karl and I both know our Zoids too.

I'm pretty up on Star Wars, Thundercats and Masters of the Universe. Well, I used to be on Star Wars but not buying them for 2 or 3 years has put me well out of the loop, for obvious reasons it's easier to be a Thundercats expert.

I work in the action figures department of one of the busiest toy shops in Britain. You can pretty much ask me anything about current lines. Well, apart from Bakugan. There's like 56 creatures in the first wave alone! I'm only human.
I specialise, naturally. I know more about Star Wars, Who, Ben 10 and WWE because they tend to attract more collectors and/or kids who are devoted to a single line. My knowledge of other stores' exclusives tends to be rather more limited, much to the frustration of some customers. Although, after the loss of Woolworths I imagine the list of exclusives will be rather shorter than in years past...

I don't really collect any toys other than TF's but I tend to collect a lot of other things like DVD's, books and CD's.
