[QUOTE="BikerScout74, post: 493191, member: 9333"] Well there is a comparison if you want the definition of 'complete' to include all the 'original' parts. Of course a star wars figure cannot be compared to a vintage car! It's the definition that is being compared, not the object. Using the term; 'lazy mans collection' is not helpful when describing the collection habits of people who don't have the funds or time to search out genuine vintage parts for their figure. They are every bit a valuable member of the collecting community as anyone else. Having an opinion on repro is fine and not wanting any of it in one's collection is fine. But i'd like to encourage more people into the community rather than turn people away or judge them because they buy repro. Tackle the problem of repro by going after the people who try to pass it off as real and educating everyone in the community as to what is genuine and what is fake. At the end of the day collect how you want and most important of all enjoy it. [/QUOTE]
