There are a LOT of Resident Evil merchandise collectors out there. My collection is slowly starting to expand. My question for you collectors out there is how did you get started? What was your first piece of merchandise that got you hooked on collecting? For me, I'd have to say it was my NECA 10th anniversary Hunter action figure. As soon as I opened that plastic container, I was overwhelmed with paint fumes XD But they died after a while. Good times lol

Also, feel free to post pics of your collections if you wish :D
 
Americans are lucky, its quite difficult to get thing Britain unless someonw knows of any British websites or places that got computer game merchandise.

I'm British and my collection is pretty big!! (Since this pic was taken I have a HUNK figurine and Resident Evil Mercenaries 3DS too) http://twitpic.com/4hix8h

eBay.co.uk, Forbidden Planet, Play.com, Amazon.co.uk... they're all your friends. I got a lot of my stuff imported from the US and Japan, but some of it's here in the UK. Geek stores like Forbidden Planet sell gaming merch, including Resi figurines. That's where I got my Chris Redfield (RE5) figurine, as well as a Solid Snake one and Joker and Harley Quinn from Batman: Arkham Asylum. There are some independent geek stores around, have a look in your area. Here in Norwich we have Toyz n Gamez (they are AMAZING, full of figurines from movies and games and they have some really rare ones!) and the movie shop next to the BBC Forum which sells Resi figurines (where I got my Chris Redfield (REmake) and Licker figurines). Cyber Candy in London sells Resi energy drinks and mints in Umbrella logo-ed tins. For the games, I got them online and from places like Cex, Game and Gamestation. Gamestation used to sell a lot of Resi merch, I got my S.T.A.R.S. wristband from there but they've had lots when new Resi games are out. When RE5 was out they had shirts, figurines, hoodies... loads!!

There's a lot of places to get Resi stuff here in the UK, you just have to look!

By the way guys, do you like my new PS3 cover?? (eBaaaaaaaaay) :) http://twitpic.com/61r6jv

i order a resident evil 10 annervrsity cd. its a start oh and code veronica 1 and 2 comic book trying to get the other 2.
 
Got an amazing addition to my collection. It was one hell of a lucky find too. I was just rambling around Gamestop and I saw RE4 and thought "Oh cool they still have RE4." There was another one next to it that looked different. I picked it up and as soon as I touched it, good god... tin case! RE4 premium edition! Only $8.99 too! I was stoked. I bought it even though I already gave 2 copies of it XD

Those are really hard to find without breaking the budget. Best of luck to you. I want a Wesker one, but the only ones I can find are hella expensive ones too.

They are craaaaazy rare and expensive now. This seems to be the only one I can find! http://www.figurerealm.com/Galleries/residentevil3/JillDrainDeimos-Front.jpg a lot of the ones you find are custom now because the originals are so rare. I think there were some big 12inch ones rolling around at some point??

There was this RE3 figurine going: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BIOHAZARD...ultDomain_0&hash=item5adcdf066c#ht_614wt_1490

And some Capcom mini-figures (including RE3 Jill): http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Capcom-6-...nment_games&hash=item415bace052#ht_6287wt_907

There are resin statues/kits around:
