I just started to get into horror action figures, I'm a big horror fan and I always wanted to buy some but never did until I recently purchased some 18 inch horror figures: Leatherface, Freddy Krueger, and Michael Myers.
I got really lucky because this guy was selling an 18 inch Leatherface for $10 on Amazon, so I asked what condition its in and he said its in "good" condition and then he would threw in 2 other ones for $19! which I got all 3 for $26 shipped! These are Mcfarlane "Movie Maniacs" which are really expensive! These figures are in great condition and really detailed. I think I'm getting into another hobby, I already have too many!

Is quilting another one of your hobbies? I see a book about quilting in your first pic...
No, that isn't my book, my sister leaves her stuff on my computer room. I don't have a proper shelf to put them on so I took them in a different room.

Quilting and collecting horror movie statues would be incongruous hobbies...but I was hoping that you'd combine the two and make a gigantic Jason quilt.
Picture it, that quilt would have patches portraying sackhead Jason, the head shrine of Pamela Voorhees, along with all your favorite kills.

When I think Horror Movie Quilt, I think of a bunch of torn off faces sewn together.
That would be amazing if someone actually made something like that in a quilt. Thanks for your comments guys. I'm not going to go crazy like some people, I just want a couple more, Pinhead and a Jason so I have the 5 main horror icons.
Edit: I would have taken the pictures in my room if it wasn't such a mess. Maybe later I'll show my collection along with my other figures when I get it cleaned up.

Hey, a word of warning. Freddy's fingerblades have a bad tendency to snap. Also, while certain figures in the Movie Maniacs line are awesome and worth the price(Freddy being one of them), certain others just feel poorly made(The Crow). I used to be into this line back when I was more into action figures around 2001-2005ish.

Thanks for the warning, I don't really move the figures around much. One of the guys on Youtube has a Jason and other ones, he said not to put them high up because they don't stand up too well. Do you still have the figures or did you sell them?
