but Sonja I may buy just for well you know being red Sonja and good ex.
I know THEM - I don't know anything ABOUT THEM.
I've never once purchased a character I didn't have some connection to, never purchased a statue just because of 'sex appeal', and I've also never purchased anything purely because of hype or popularity. Every choice I make in my collecting is a considered one.
To me, just from my own point of view, those are pretty much the stupidest possible reasons to lay down the type of serious cash it takes to collect this kind of stuff, and I'll never understand people who buy based on any of that. Because every piece I own is a representation of who I am and what my own personal tastes are. My collection is a reflection of me, and some of the (fictional) things that I love. It's not done to impress or appeal to anyone else, or to join in with whatever happens to be popular or hyped up at one particular moment in time or another. And I honestly don't see the point in spending so much money for any of those kinds of reasons.
But hey, that said, I also understand that everyone is different, and everyone collects on their own terms. So while I may never understand some of my fellow collectors reasons, and some may even seem downright crazy to me from my own point of view, at the end of the day to each their own. Your money, your choice how to spend it. That's how I look at it, anyway.
By the way, I'm actually not trying to insult anyone in saying any of this, just trying to explain my own point of view, so if it comes across as insulting in any way at all, it's not intentional. Just because I personally don't 'get it' as to why anyone would buy characters they don't know, or buy based purely on sex appeal or hype or whatever, doesn't mean that I have a problem with those that choose to do so.

. No offence meant to anyone, I just find it a bizarre reason to buy, each to their own though I guess.
Anyone buying a statue simply because it's looks sexy or for 'sex appeal' has (imo) bigger problems than not knowing about the history of the character
I owned in excess of 25 female statues at one point and none were bought for 'sex appeal', I bought them because they were beautiful, sculpted masterpieces of Art, but Art is subjective so we all like different things and what I consider sexy, others may not and vice versa.
I guess my point is that (imo) buying a statue simply for 'sex appeal' is crazy, again imo.
May I just add that we are a family forum so if any pictures are posted please make sure that they are appropriate for a pg13 forum.
You would be surprised some of the pervy plastic that has been posted here in the past, all in the name of art of course.
Sexy is not always nekkid, classy is better (imo).

but I bought ivy for the sexy sculpt. I don't even like the character much. The scuplt was too sexy to pass up. : then again I kept joker even though I don't like him that much. One thing for sure is not because joker was sexy...
