This is the kind of thing that gets the MSWCC out and about. Being primarily a Collecting Club and having the Hasbro line being the most accessible (and lowest cost) for all collectors. Some still have their "branches" such as clones or armored figures only; no animation style figures; "real" figures only; etc. It's crazy fun and the best is when you hit the jackpot and make a find or even better, find something you are looking for and a duplicate you know someone else is looking for and hook them up with it.
