Its few more hours till the end of 2009 and the beginning of 2010. 2009 has been a good year for me in terms of adding toys into my collection. The beginning of the year started with Transformers figures which continued until March . From April till May my action figures phase began which also during this time I managed to get my hands on the Force FX Darth Vader Lightsaber.

June was the starting of my Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Collection. This continued throughout July, August and September. During this period, a couple of Masterpiece Transformers were added to my collection, namely Ultramagnus and Skywarp. I also got my hands on the TF Alternity Megatron Nissan 370z to accompany my Nissan GTR Optimus Prime that I got in March. I also started to get Gundam into my collection. GI Joe figures and vehicles were also added into my collection. I wrapped up my summer holidays in Brunei by getting a few more action figures plus the awesome Devastator.

By the end of September I got my hands on a few more GI Joe figures. October started my Hot Toys collection starting with Joker Bank Robber version and Two Face Harvey Dent. The Ironman Mark 1 soon followed and I managed to make a pre-order on the Joker DX01 Policeman version. My hunt for 1/6 figures continued with the Baroness figure exclusively from the SDCC Comic Con. I also manage to get a couple of Transformers figures and a vehicle model from the Golden Compass movie. This was also when my blog started.

November was my Lord of the Rings figure phase. Most of the figures that I got was on a relatively bargain price where each figure didnt past the 5 quid mark. Other action figures also included are from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Wall E as well as Pirates of the Caribbean. I also obtained my first Aoshima Car model kit with upgrade rims as a birthday gift to myself.

December began with the arrival of my Joker DX01 that I pre-ordered in October. I was satisfied with the quality of the figure, but for me the Ironman Mark 1 is still my best Hot Toys purchase this year. I also managed to obtain a vintage Men in Black 2 figure on ebay for a reasonable price. A couple of Human Alliance Transformers and two more deluxe class Transformers from the ROTF toyline managed to make it into my collection. Valentino Rossi's diecast Motorbike model summed up my purchase for December.

Anyways that wraps up my collection for 2009. Hopefully 2010 will be a good collecting year for us collectors and I have already made a list of targets that I want to get for 2010. I wish all the fellow collectors a happy new year and happy collecting.
