I still remember mine, it was around 1-2AM in the morning scrolling through RU-vid and suddenly I saw one of your videos😅 and then I looked at your channel, and you had tons of review of these marvel stuff and my favourite superheroes. That’s how it started for me😁🙌🏽🤷🏽♂️
I'll try to keep this short lol. I debated getting a hot toy for almost a year. I wanted a Spider Punk but i wasn't sure if i wanted a statue or hot toy. After months of researching, i found your review. But the price made me hesitant. Eventually i went with it and got one. Best decision I've made cause collecting hot toys are fun. I dont buy everything. Having control is definitely key
@@JustinsCollection you know I've been following you since the beginning of my collecting. I really appreciate all you do for the community. Keep up the great work and keep inspiring new collectors as you've inspired me a couple years ago.
I used to have so many Hot Toys but I downsized my collection last year and sold pretty much all of them. They're nice but I will only get characters I REALLY care about in 1/6 scale these days.
Funny, that it’s almost a unwritten rule to start with a character you love. My first Hot Toys (+\- 5 years ago) was Eric Draven from The Crow. As a child my father introduced me to Bruce Lee, and I learned to love him and Brandon as well. I enjoyed the sequels and the series with Mark Dacascos. Btw: Justin, the beard suits you very well. Let it grow! 😃 Cheers!
I almost did the same thing. What happened was that I was going to Pre-Order Moon Knight and pick it up when I go on vacation to the US, but it would've arrived after. Instead, today actually, I bought my very first Hot Toy. The black and gold Spiderman suit. I'm extremely excited!!!!
Will: "We're all limited on space and budget..." Justin (sitting in front of an entire wall of Moducases, each bursting with figures): *smiles and nods 😂😂😂
@@JustinsCollection love you, man. Your reviews got me looking at 6th scale figures a couple years ago, now I've got a too-full detolf, more figures as well as the JazzInc 2022 Batmobile coming, and I'm planning out my collection room setup. 😁
My first Hot Toys was Alita. It's my favorite movie, and I was looking for a good action figure of her, and it just so happened that it was at the same time the Hot Toys Alita figure was released. I kept her by my bedside and would change her pose weekly. About 2 years later, I decided Alita needed a 1/6 friend, and that's when I found out exactly what hot toys are. Now I have several lol. I found this channel looking for figure reviews. Every figure I was interested in, Justin had done a review for 😊. Justin, if not for your videos, I don't know how many of my 1/6 figures I would have accidentally broken when taking out and setting up. Thank you so much! And you answer any questions I have. Thank you for caring and just being a great human being!
You know, it's not just the figure, it's everything it represents for you and for your life. Adventure, dreams and the pleasure of choosing, buying and showing everyone! I am from Brazil. Here it is very expensive to get 1/6 action figures. We have high taxes and we have to think a lot about what to buy because of the cost. As soon as I receive the pice I decide to keep each one inside a dioramed acrylic box, I think it's a very original way of collecting. Do you know someone who collects like me?
I actually started with a Spider-Man hot toys, which was actually the tasm2 ver and then from there I’ve plunged into all DC hot toys snyderverse/ DCEU hot toys I have 10!! Of them now lol 😅💪🏻🔥
I started collecting sixth scale back in 2008. I was only buying Sideshow 1/6 at the time. (Star Wars & GIJoe) In 2013, I bought my first Hot Toys figure. Christopher Reeve Superman! And I've been going strong ever since.
Haha @justin, I totally understand what you mean. I have shelf full of DC and a shelf full of Marvel figures... and then being a huge Pixar fan, I need to pre-order that Buzz Lightyear. Not sure what am I going to do with it when it comes out.
This was a great and helpful video!!! I have 3 first tier characters, totally different - Batman, Spider-man, Vader. And I would start with Spider-man for 1 big reason - Spider-verse. You have 3 different movie versions, 2 (soon 3) video-games with a big amount of suits, animation etc.And some great villains too!
Justin I absolutely love this type of content. Taking clips and interesting topics from your stream to watch as a video, love it! Keep making these! Maybe if possible we can get an interview with John from inArt coming from your channel? Would be awesome!!
have loads of money buy everything .my adice is pick a theme then sort out what charators u like and slow start so you can enjoy collecting .more is not always better
you video was informative and well constructed .i have been there brought everthing etc and made me ill and hate collecting .i now just buy batman as he the hero anyone could be and i alot happier so my family as spend more time with them .thanks reply .take care col
Love seeing these segments up! Feels like an entirely new show on your expanding network! Would genuinely love these every month or so! I’m sure it’s so much work though so no pressure lol
i Start collecting hottoys with the first Michael Jackson hot toys figure, billie jean version....after that..a lot of figures in my collection, all michael jackson's hottoys for sure...
This is my first time to watch your discussions and it was helpful. I am just happy to affirm that everything both of you tackled here is the same process ive been considering in the past 10 years of my hot toys collecting. Basically for me i started from the top favorite tier 1, 2 etc then "what they mean to me" until i just finally want the MCU avengers infinity saga line up characters exclusively. 💖 the connection of these nostalgia & memories blended gives a leveled up value. So when i look at them i get to be reminded of a certain period of this lifetime. Happy collecting! Cheers!
I came across a Doctor Strange pose showcase and that triggered my Hot Toys obsession. And it's funny cause I just got my first one a couple weeks ago! I love your reviews
I recently pre ordered my first hot toy the other day. It was green goblin from nwh. If I end up really liking it I will probably get more form the nwh line but I’m gonna try and not get tempted by any other lines.
Once the dust settles and you have the NWH guys something will come along that you will want 😂 congratulations and welcome to the community. Patience is key the delays on some of these stink but worth it in the end.
@Justin's Collection you know I had to get the neon tech iron man with suit up gantry. Hot toys didn't give me a choice haha 🤣 Thanks for always providing the best fig reviews on you tube 👍🏼
My first ever hot toys was encountering them at Disney. Friend of mine who used to work there took me for my birthday. I spotted the force awakens Kylo ren on the shelves at Star Wars land and immediately snatched it right before a lady did lol and to boot my friend got it for me with a employee discount! Didn’t take long before I went down the rabbit hole that is collecting hot toys or sixth scale figures in general
Daaammm when he said Kylo Ren thats a sign lol, I love that character also Thanos just ordered the battle damaged Thanos and Got the Iron man on the way to🔥🔥
I have an early edition Aliens Hicks and adore it. The early stuff is nowhere near the quality of recent MMS releases but they are still great. I have introduced Hot Toys to many. Even non film fans can’t get over the scale and quality. Start with figures and films you love. It’s a big investment, especially with so many great figures.
I got started looking at the Sith Troopers, and Hot Toys popped up. I thought holy crap that is awesome it looked so realistic and I didn’t know this(realistic 6th scale) was a thing. Well, after watching many reviews from you and Jehda I finally ordered my first which was Commander Cody. Now I’m down the rabbit hole and have a total of 28 figures and growing. I will say their are some grails that I skipped when I first ordered my one that I wish I hadn’t, but live and learn.
I Started for about 12 years… and sold them all again :/ Now I Start New and Really Miss some… so I Hope Hot Toys does the First Avengers again… and I Really miss my quarter scale Endo from Terminator. The only two Advice I can give: Think about the Money and the Space. Its Not about the Figures but the boxes too.
I feel like my collection is going to look a little odd once it gets going more since basically everything I've ordered lately is Jem and the Holograms, CSM, and The Boys 😂
I've had some on preorder for a while. I'm collecting the ones I really like. I started officially collecting in December and currently have. 9 all of which I received at some sort of discount.
Now you should make another video called: How to stop collecting Hot Toys (because is so hard to stop buying them, there's no space left on my side to display them after 8 years!)
I remember that I saw you first when you posted some mk figures (the old subzero and scorpion) after that I didn't see you for a long time coz I forgot ur channel and then suddenly I got recommended the kratos figure that you reviewed recently and I remembered and started watching you regularly I don't collect figures as I am from a small town in India and I am a teen ( I don't want to spend my parents' money on figures) Also it is very,very hard to find some decent figures at a reasonable price but I have planned that once I get settled financially then I will start figure collecting on my own✌ Also I watch ur videos as they are fun and I like watching them very much also you deserve more attention than you get Edit: I have my own collection as super cheap ripoffs (they aren't even 1/6 scale and have no articulation) which are very cheap here (both by price and standard 😅😅) And I just noticed that I hadn't subscribed to you so I have just subscribed
I stumbled upon Justin's Collection channel, it inspired me to go get a 1/6 figure. I am waiting for my first 1/6 figure which is The Mask from Present Toys to arrive to my house within the next two weeks.
I made that hype train mistake at first and Justin is right, those were the first I sold (MCU) lol now I stick with 2 franchises I love and only get the characters I have a connection with
First Hot Toy Infinity War Black Widow because it was cheap and I love ScarJo but I’ve been collecting 1/6 scans figures Sideshow to be exact. Now I have a very minuscule 30 Hot Toys with a few preorders and about 10 some odd 1/6 scale figures from other companies.
I got the mark 85 Iron man as a birthday/Christmas present a couple years ago now. One of my prized possessions and I'll be pre-ordering the mark 7, along with the Tobey spidey, and tactical suit batman from justice league
Hey Justin! I was watching your older videos, and decided to get my own Iron Man figure. I was wondering, since you got it from the original site, how long would it take for the order to arrive?
@@israelsettles8235 toyswonderland is known for sometimes dodgy shipping, it can range from a few days to a few months for instock figures. This is from personal experience
@israelsettles8235 I live in the USA and it takes 2 months to get my figures from Toys Wonderland with regular shipping. If it's around the holidays, add another 2 weeks.
sadly i didn't watch the live but i have a big question, i am about to start my 1/6 my collection this year , i alredy have my favorite characters chosed but the problem is the versiom of them like my all time favorite characters is Optimus Prime, i grow up with the Michael Bay version of him and its very nostalgic for me but at the same time the bumblebee movie version is way better (in my opinion) and them i can't decide wich is the nostalgic one or the better design ,this also happen for iron man, mark 7= nostalgic mark 85= the cooler one
I feel the exact same way. I LOVE the bee movie design but… I have way too much nostalgia for the Bayverse design, I loved it so much I bought 4 of the Threezero dlx ROTF prime!
I think my first HT/1/6 figs were the Mars Attacks soldier and Supreme Commander way back when eBay was still a place to find good deals. Around a hundred each!! Never found a bargain like that ever again but hey, score!! And I was always of the mind that clothes didn't really scale down properly past 1/4 scale, but HT and even some 3rd party stuff has improved so much it's not that true any more. Besides, my thing is headsculpts so...
I don’t know if I’m gonna collect a lot cause I’m not willing to buy many random characters but I’m definitely gonna get my hands on Kang the Conqueror and Joker (The Batman version) when both released cause they are my fav characters from either Marvel and DC
My first hot toy figures were the Elder Predator, Gamma Ironman mark xxvi, and Gotham Knight Batman, I collect from hot toys and third party . I collect what I like not lines and I kind of mix and match in my display though I try to keep marvel separate from DC but I mix X men with Spider-Man with Ironman and so forth.
Im a Dutch collector🇳🇱✌I started in 2009 for 13 years and 2 months now my first was Major Dutch from Predator and im not done yet😅 and i posted my first video on my channel on 1 jan 2023😃
@Justin's Collection yeah lol usually I would've listened to the advice you gave because that is my rule of try it our first but my brother had a princess Leia and groot so I knew the quality I was getting to begin with so I just went for it and I'm thinking of pre ordering padme , and obi wan 😄
