When I got back into collecting again over 6 years ago the first thing I did was put together a loose set. Then rarer loose figures lige VCJ's and variants.
Over time my focus has shifted and I've always felt like a loose set is the corner stone of any vintage collection, and without such, it's missing a key element of the whole vintage line.
But is this really true?
I figure most new collectors aim for completing a loose set first but I've found that I'm really not bothered by them any more, I don't collect any Jedi stuff so all the Jedi figures I have hold no real value to me, and I've always felt the last 15 (if you're old skool) are grossly overrated and over-priced.
I've recently decided to let got of pretty much all my loose figures. I have 3 cabinets I use to display my collection and my re-seals are now going to move into my loose set cabinet. Whatever I can't display gets moved on.
So does everyone have a loose collection despite having other focus' or is this the exception to the rule?
Funny I just talked with joseph about that a few hours ago :lol: he do not have a full loose set because there is a few figures that he does not like :lol:
About myself, I would maybe always have a full set, I would fell something was missing, even as I do not like anakin and imperial dignitary so much :lol:
But I would not say there nothing wrong with selling your corner stone, if you do not want it, then there is no reason to keep it. Sell or trade it for items that will make you happy :wink:
