As a kid I was really into WWII. I read books like a maniac, could draw Spitfires, Shermans, Tigers and Stukas with my eyes closed. Drawing big battles that actually made sense. Looking at those pictures now, I am still surprised the amount of detail I put in it.
So it will not suprise you the first wave figures are my favourite. They just fitted my imagination perfectly. The vehicles? Well, err, I found them plain sh*te to say the least.
Then Z Force came along and I fell in love with the whole team. Didn't stop nagging my parents untill I had the team complete. And yes, Quarrel and Steeler! That articulation and posability of figures made me enter a new dimension. Nearly 33 now, but still love them both.
Still have all my original toys, never lost any accessory. In the meantime I have been able to purchase quite a lot to expand my collection, but my first figures are still the most special to me.
