How has Sideshow changed the way you collect? collecting, animation, collected

I thought it would be fun to post how sideshow has changed the ways you collect..( good or bad)I never spent more then $150 on a statue until sideshow came along. Now my limit is around $550...

I used to collect animation/comic art when I was 17, statues have always been some of the cheaper items I bought, SS just introduced a larger scale for me, which is MUCH better.

Not much.

They have totally changed my collecting habits.  First of all, all I collected before them was CS Moore.  I also thought I would never spend more on a statue than when I spent $350 on the original Aphrodite IX statue.

Since getting into Sideshow, I have comiquette's, PFs and even an LSB.  I also over doubled my little $350 limit too LOL!

Basically the same as most guys here. Started out small. Growing up I had the usual Joes, M.A.S.K, TF..then moved on to Spawn in my teens.

Then Sideshow came along. They had me at quot;Helloquot;

I've bought a lot less, and limited my collection to only Marvel products PFs especially but occasional comiquettes if I like the way they turn out.  I used to buy maquettes and other stuff too but no more.

They have driven me to stop buying their crap completely.

You're a hell of a lot better than me Derek.
I don't want to learn.

My collection is a mishmash of everything  from Anime  pvc's, Sota, McFarlane ,SS, Bowen, Moore, Gentle Giant, Dark horse, etc.

Just received She-Hulk and a 6 inch McFarlane pvc Ripclaw yesterday.   

I have always been centered in diversity.
